My guess is explorer. When it freezes everything becomes unresponsive.

Is explorer trying to :
access a net drive it can't find?
access a faulty drive attached to your machine?

Is some service trying to find something that's not available?
Example: We have clearcase installed on our machines and if your machine is
detached from the network Clearcase tries to find its server process and
because it can't everything freezes.

HTH,

Adam

One suggestion is to goto the Folder Options in a windows folder, go to the
View tab. Select the option to 'Launch folder windows in a seperate process',
then if a folder window locks up, it wont affect the rest of windows.
