Yes check the network setup, IME explorer reacts very badly (ie the GUI
becomes very unresponsive) to slow or unavailable network resources.

OK, here's an image of what's going on in my system when it's idling:

I have no idea how to interpret these values, other than, "Empty, black
space is good."

That's a hack of a lot of I/O for an "idling" system. (If it really was
idling, of course, it would be zero bytes I/O...) Quite clearly it's
doing *something* fairly intensive in the background.
(The good news is, it doesn't appear to be swapping, or even coming
anywhere remotely near to swapping. You've still got acres of physical
RAM you can use before you need to start hitting virtual memory.)
Try punching up Process Explorer and adding the CPU History and I/O
Bytes History columns, vis:

If it's really idle, I'm susprised you have a page fault delta of almost
5000. Even with stuff running in the background (music, sidebar, etc) I'm
getting only a small PFDelta (<200) on Vista.
Find the resource monitor that looks like this:
http://www.techsupportalert.com/files/images/rm_overview_1.jpg
On Vista, there's a "resource monitor" button on the task manager
performance page. Or type it into the control panel or start bar or
something, to search?
It'll tell you what actual files etc are being accessed.
But, really, it doesn't look like it should be slow. As folks have said, it
doesn't look very busy.

C# - a language whose greatest drawback
is that it's best implementation comes

May be Microsoft is indexing your hard disk while idle, so that your
next search might be quicker. A great classical from the Redmont Firm.
(or it is just "defragmenting" in silence)
Or you might have some hidden process/virus, serving as a bot in botnet
(a shame you do not see the network traffic too).
