New message creation is slow.

[Eugene Kazakov]

In a company environment, XP Pro, MS Office 2003, Exchange server
some users experiencing this issue. Then they click the button "new" -
computer thinks around 30-60 sec. If clicked second time - it works fine. If
I quit Outlook - I have this issue again. If I do not use Word as email
editor - works fine. My account on a newly imaged computer works fine.
Reinstalling the Office did not change anything. Deletion of normal.dot
either.
Can someone help?

Is Outlook 2003 configured in cached mode?

The only other thing I can think to check is what 3rd party addins are
installed in Word 2003.

 

[Eugene Kazakov]

Yes, in cached.
There are addins, like adobe, winzip. Thanks for the advice, I'll check then
in the office.

Thanks, Neo

That was close.
I find out, what every employee uses a link to a site in the autosignature,
and that site is intermittently slow.
Simple and stupid.
Thanks again.
