Can't open any programs after being logged on for a while.

When I turn on the pc and I start using it everything works fine, but after being 
logged on for about 15 minutes my pc acts funny, I can't open any programs or simple 
files, such as pictures or text files and right click does not function.  At first 
I thought it would be memory, but when that happens all I have running is 3 ie windows. 
 From the 3 ie windows that I have opened I close one to see if that changes anything, 
nothing happens, but when i try to open a third ie windows again, I can't, that and 
any other program.  I have to restart and that helps for a few minutes, but I get 
the same problem again.  Any help, please?  
By the way I use windows vista.

 I've tried system restore, but that didn't help.  I reinstalled windows vista, I 
did not make a clean install just reinstalled windows vista, but that didn't help 
neither.    I have Norton antivrus and I ran Spybot and everything seems to be fine. 
 Since yesterday I'm getting something new, everytime I try to scroll, the scroll 
bar stops, it does not freeze it just stops and I have to click on the scrollbar 
again to keep scrolling.   Another thing, when I have multiple ie windows opened 
I put one in the back to work on another window, but the one I put behind the other 
one comes on  by itself.
