Default HUGE problem is a TINY black box slowing me down

Please Login to Remove!

On my blackberry 9700 Bold, I just noticed something yesterday. Every time I access my Facebook, web browser, or my text messages I have to wait 15 seconds for this little black box to go away. It's in the center of the screen and spins like a clock and it slows me down tremendously.

When I'm browsing through texts or about to text someone, it comes up and I have to wait for it to go away. When I'm looking through facebook stuff that has already loaded, it just randomly comes up.

How do I rid this thing of it?

I have tried restarting it and turning connections off and on, nothing has worked. It's like it's interrupting what I'm doing to catch up, it's never done that and I haven't installed anything new recently.

Yes, its a "timer" clock, it means its processing.

Do a battery pull.

Are you on 3G or EDGE?

The box isn't slowing you down -that is the BB equivalent of the Windows Hourglass. Whatever process is trying to run is slowing you down by either a slow connect speed or many processes trying to run at the same time.
