Form not responding

[Ben white]

I have a napplication that launches several long running progress.
Each procerss spawns it's own progress dialog. The problem is that
after some time (3 min to 25 or 30) the UI stops updating and is
marked as "Not Responding." The apps basically move large chunks of
files based on user input so knowing where it is important to the
application. The app and its processes always seem to finish so it is
never really 'hung.' Any ideas on what I can look at to keep the UI
responsive?

Ben,
a productive discution about this subject happened in this group a few
days ago. Take a look:
