Hello,

I have about 40 WIN XP SP2 computers that are experiencing noticeable
slowness when connecting to files from a DFS. They are all running Office
2003 and the application will stop responding for about 20 seconds prior to
the file being accessable for editing. This does not happen on Windows 2000
computers, and it does not happen on all WIN XP SP2 computers. Has anyone
seen this behavior before? Any suggestions? Thanks..
