Kamusin, Since this problem caused the system to be unusable I reinstalled Ubuntu 9.04 from a clean install disk. I am no longer having this problem. I am unsure as to why this happened but the problem began immediately after I did two back to back upgrades from 8.04 to 9.04.
Thank you very much for getting back to me. I am enjoying using Ubuntu very much. I use other operating systems very little now. Last week I had to use another operating system and encountered the "blue screen of death" and remembered why I use Ubuntu.
