Installed XP upgrade. On doing a file search the process
will scan about 10 directories then hangs. Tried changing
file format from FAT32 to NTFS, no improvement.
 
Hi Tom,

See if this helps:

Stop Search from Scanning ZIP files:

Un-register the zip and cab file dlls, then re-register them after that. Go
to Start/Run and type in:

Before Search:
regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll
regsvr32 /u cabview.dll

After Search:
regsvr32 zipfldr.dll
regsvr32 cabview.dll
