Folks,
After some basic checking, it's obvious that my recent install of NIS
2005, and specifically, Norton Personal Firewall is causing a 30+
second delay of bootup of Windows XP. My background wallpaper
appears, but icons take much longer to come up.
I disabled that specific feature of NIS 2005, and reinitiated the
firewall that Windows XP SP2 uses.
Are there any fixes for this? I'd sure like to use this Norton
feature that I paid good money for.

I'd ask for a refund if I were you.

You installed a service that is going to load and protect the OS and you
actually mind if it slows down the windows boot? It's loading and starting
itself before a lot of the Windows services so that it can protect your
computer.
If you really want to protect your computer get a simple NAT Router and
install it between your internet connection and your computer.

Do what Leythos said.
Get something between the PC and the Internet.
A NAT router is a good start.

you have a lot of RAM it may slow down the start up. Or perhaps you
haven't enough RAM and XP need to use the swap file.
