macbookpro10.7.5 system preferences freezes any time I open it

I have a macbook pro 10.7.5 (bought in summer of 2011). I have problems doing anything in system preferences - the color wheel starts running / freezes, and the only thing I can do is force quit. What do I do? Please help! Thank you!

Deleting the System Preference preference file should do it.

Deleting the System Preference or other .plist file

Thank you! I clicked on the link you provided me and deleted all the plists. (Safari, desktop, and preferences). That did it! Whew!
