I had no apparent problem with installing but when I click to start Gimp, I get Gimp not responding Looking for data files Fonts( this may take a while).

Do you have many extra fonts? If so could any be corrupt?
BTW, Where did you download Gimp from?

go to the folder where you have installed your additional fonts and temporarily remove the fonts then try to start gimp
