Hi Christopher

Sorry - don't get too excited. I do not have a solution to your problem. But I
have the same problem and have yet to find anything in the newsgroups that
seems like a fix! My problem seems very similar to yours (I am running XP Pro)
but the slowness I am experiencing with limited accounts is not slow but
verrrrry slow, verging on the unisable. Explorer will not open at all. Word and
Excel are fine. Mcafee complains that it cannot find its .dat file and loging
this limited user out takes around 5 mins. Have you received any fixes for your
problem?

Cheers

Bob Norris
