I'm pretty sure one or two subscribers to this list work at/in UEA... A friend of mine's daughter has just started there and has been obliged to put McAfee on her (XP Pro) laptop. The problem is, everytime she joins the UEA net, the machine slows to a crawl. Would anyone be so kind as to take a look at it for her please?
Just a guess, but has some silly indexing application, like findfast, for example, decided to index the set of files that have become newly available on the network with an "on access" virus scan enabled so it is trying to virus check every file on the servers?
