NIS 2004 or XP problem
posted here about using AVG FREE and recently adding NIS 2004. I also
posted asking how to stop programs from launching at startup because my formerly lightening speed computer is now slower than a snail. It takes an eternity to run any program with many eventually hanging. I have been shutting down programs that I don't need after startup until now as speed has not been an issue. Now suddenly we are going gray trying to run email. It is painfully slow while connecting to the server, but that is the server and is hopefully temporary. What I don't understand is why just launching the program (OE and every other program as well) is so slow. Do other NIS users experience this or is something else wrong? I am going to un/re-install NIS tonight to see if that makes a difference. I hope that this is not simply the effect that NIS has on my computer. If so, out it goes! Thanks in advance for any opinions or advice. DH |

NIS 2004 or XP problem
Greetings --
Using NIS does cause a noticeable performance hit. Bruce Chambers -- Help us help you: http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once. -- RAH "Bliz" wrote in message ... posted here about using AVG FREE and recently adding NIS 2004.
