I asked this question about a year ago and I forgot to write down the
answer. My oops.

My L.A. network is extremely slow at local resolution. When I go to explorer
to find a file on another computer it often takes several minutes for the
drive to appear in the explorer window. Once it appears, then the connection
works very fast, but until then you wait.

Now I had been told that the problem originated in the network protocol
because the network was waiting for a reply from a non-existent internet
connection (apparently it sets this up by default) The solution was rather
simple. All you needed to do was delete a registry key and every thing would
work just fine after that. Problem is; I can't remember the key. Can anybody
remind me?

Thanks
