I tried moving everything in my wife's home folder into a backup folder from root and then logging in to my wife's account. Still no go. It looks like I'll have to go ahead and create a new account for her and migrate her stuff back over. My chief concern though is that there is something going on that will eventually have this same affect on all users, not just her. Even now, logging in to my user from the login window seems a bit on the slow side. Barring any new revelations, I think I'll be looking at a full reinstall soon. Thanks for the help.
