Subj : Common Dialog Memory Leak?

I'm using Windows XP and writing a file to open text file with the 
GetOpenFileName API funciton. Everytime when call to the common dialog 
function, it spends about 2 seconds to show it and the memory required by my 
program increases serval KB each time. The following is the code:

OPENFILENAME fn;

        ZeroMemory(&fn, sizeof(fn));
        fn.lStructSize = sizeof(fn);

        fn.lpstrFilter = "Text files\0*.txt\0\0";
        fn.lpstrInitialDir = "C:\\Windows\0";
        fn.nMaxFile = 256;
        fn.hwndOwner = GetFocus();
        fn.lpstrTitle = "Open file\0";
        fn.nMaxFileTitle = 256;
        fn.nFilterIndex = 1;
        fn.FlagsEx = OFN_EX_NOPLACESBAR;

        fn.Flags = Dlg->Flags | OFN_ENABLEHOOK | OFN_EXPLORER;

 GetOpenFileName((OPENFILENAME*)&fn);

Please help me to optimize the code, so that it can display the dialog more 
efficiently with the explorer style.
