when i try to access network folders, explorer freezes for 15 or 20 seconds
randomly.

any ideas?
 
Check to see if the following option is checked under Tools...Folder
Options...View
"Automatically search for network folders and printers"

If it is, try unchecking it to see if it improves the response time.
 
that seems to have perked things up, but it is still doing it. it is when i
double click a folder i a network share it puts up an hourglass then sits
there for twenty seconds then opens the folder.it then speeds up, through
the folders then when i go to open a document it sits there and does
nothing. the network share is about 50gb with about 40,000 files in. does
that make any difference?
