Slow response on ALL Open/Save dialogs

[Paul Adams]

When I'm connected to the network & logged into a domain every Open/Save dialog box takes 20 seconds to come to life. It drives me crazy. Word does it. Excel, Winzip, Outlook - you name it.

Only the first time for each app, though. I have two or three mapped drives but it seems to be scanning our entire network before it will let me FINALLY pick a folder to open or save to.

If you are on a domain with a server, Your machine is sending the information to the server first, And then getting it back, Then opening Things.

The reason this only happens once, Is because your computer has that information in its memory after the first time and knows where to look.
