Add-ins slow down computer - endnote

[William]

I recently added Endnote version 9 to Word 2007. I installed the add-in
manually with specific instructions from Endnote's website. Since installing
it my computer runs slowly when I have a document open with Endnote data.
More specifically, it is slow when I change from window to window; e.g., from
Word to the start menu, to explorer, ie7, the minimize and close boxes, etc.
When hover over the buttons they take about 7 seconds to light up, when I
press them they take about 10 second to change or activate. Funny thing
though, if I have two or more window open and I click on the window's field -
it will transfer instantly as if I had pressed the button on the task bar. I
hope you can picture what I am saying here.

I have endnote X1 which is supposed to be vista compatible, but it does the
same thing.
It may be to do wih Vista being 64 bit and endnote being a 32 bit
application.
They have a work-around for XP 64 , but it apparently doesn't work for vista
64.

Thanks mr G

Actually the suggestion you gave did work for me; however, it only for any
new documents I created did the setting remain so there would be no lag. For
old documents with endnote references I needed to go through and re-apply the
settings each time. So this fixed it for the old documents, just continual
process. I am using endnote version 9
