It is likely that you have the following
1) Huge Log Files
2) Incorrect Permissions
3) Damaged Files
To correct them
1) Open Applications/Utilities/Console - clear logs
2) Open Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility - repair permissions
3) Open Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility - Verify Disk
Also, considering your system, you should be running Tiger for optimal speed and efficiency.

No, Tiger will run on your eMac (I'm running it on my G3 iBook). It's leopard that your thinking of, which requires a 867Mhz G4 (there are ways to get around that though). If I'm not mistaken, you can still get Tiger (OS X 10.4) from Apple over the phone, but that was a few months ago.
