------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Nov 19 13:46:23 +0000 2008 ------- Thanks! Will send you shortly. I removed lots of data from the Calc sheet I will send you. In fact, I only left the links in it, but the error still occurs. Unfortunately I was not able to reproduce the problem with a new file with some links that looked similar, so maybe it has something to do with the specific file. I narrowed it down even more: it has to do with my proxy. Sorry if gets a little bit technical right now. ;-) I have one host, myproxy.lan. That hostname resolves through a local DNS. Case 1: If myproxy.lan blocks all incoming packets on the mentioned proxy port, Calc loads for minutes -> looks like a TCP/IP timeout while trying to reach the proxy. Case 2: If myproxy.lan does not block incoming packets, but simply have no proxy listening on this port, Calc is a little bit slower when loading (10-15s delay), but doesn't wait for minutes -> looks as well like a TCP/IP timeout. This time it's shorter, because packets get rejected immediately and don't silently drop. Case 3: If I enter a wrong host, like notexists.lan, the file loads without problems. My conclusion: Calc tries to connect to the proxy immediately if the hostname is resolvable. The amount of "freeze time" then depends on how fast TCP/IP packets time out or get rejected, which depends on firewall settings. If you can't reproduce it, try the following: Enter pumbaa.ooodev.org as a proxy (FTP, HTTP, HTTPS) on port 3128. The packets to this port get rejected by pumbaa.ooodev.org, so you have the long timeout. You just have to assure that your corporate firewall lets packets through. ;-) I agree that this is a little bit complicated and goes down to network technology, so if you need help, let me know. ;-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
