Recycle Bin not working properly

Hi. I have just deleted all temp files and temp internet files, as well as many thousands of files in the folders under temp internet files. Some flagged that they were system files and would not be deleted. I left them alone. I then ran Ad-Aware to see if I had any spyware on my system, then did a scandisk and defrag, which went smoothly. Now, my recycle bin does not work properly, it takes forever to open, and I now cannot delete any files to it. Hopefully someone can help. I have thought of System Restore, and since I have the original CD for WinME I would be able to replace any damaged or missing system files, if necessary. I am not great at editing the registry, but I have done so a few times, being very careful not to play with something I do not recognize. I have not been in the registry for some time, so I don't see where that would be the problem in this case.
