Start Menu Hang

I have a small network(6 computers) but with no files in my computer being shared, Think the network is doing that??

If there is an item you opened recently it will have an entry in the Recent Documents. This does create a small pause or delay.

Fix? Clear the recent documents. (and it's documented, repeatable, etc.)

I tried everything but it still seems to hang. It doesn't happend every time you click on the start menu just once in a while it will take a few seconds.

I would right click on the start button to explore the All Users and my Start menu checking each item to see if any remnant of a reference to any network or other than local item is there. This remains the most common delay item short of a machine that someone never ran disk cleanup or did the usual DMA flip noted at http://winhlp.com/?q=node/10

Remember I only have the clues you present here. So far these are the only items I encounter repeatedly. If your machine suffered a recent viral or other attack and you haven't shared that or if your Norton antivirus is nearing it's subscription date then I can't offer much about those.
