try going to run, type in msconfig in the start up list, uncheck all except systray, if indeed its listed. if some odd program is trying to startup on boot, then, this might sure the hang. also, look in that startup line in all programs, remove any listings there

in msconfig, I would leave the AV and firewall on start-up, not just the system tray.
