Let me guess you have a crappy PC?

Itll be yor low amount of RAM or bad GFX card probably

Its not good on ram but its weird it just started working i loged out of msn messenger and aim and all other plug-ins and i also deleted some software and i did hide my desktop icons and it started working weird....

It's because brushing in photoshop is extremely intensive. To get smooth brushing requires a lot of memory and free cpu cycles. either upgrade your computer or remove everything except photoshop.

In a different vein, if this just started out of nowhere you may have a virus or spyware eating up extra resources.
