Interestingly enough I am having a similar issue to Murray, however ours occurs on start up AND while Outlook is open. It will occasionally hang several PC's on our network (not at the same time) and I can't really pin point what the cause is. The synchronization is what causes the hang up and svchost spikes to 99%.
I have looked online to no avail and even replaced a few PC's to rule out software and hardware... Any ideas where I can talk to our lead admin about looking server side?

What do you have on the backend (AV product that may be scanning the store?) If everyone is experiencing this, I would start with the server / store and see what is occurring before I would point on the clients. If the store is ok, how about a switch? Bad port? -----Original Message----- From: Murray Freeman [mailto:mfree...@alanet.org] Sent: Tuesday, June 30, 2009 9:47 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: OUTLOOK 2003 VERY SLOW OPENING It's not a single user, it's everyone.

I just had an issue with a user and I had to break cached mode and reset cached mode and it started operating normally...strange but that was the issue... -----Original Message----- From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:mblackst...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 30, 2009 8:59 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: OUTLOOK 2003 VERY SLOW OPENING Try using it. -----Original Message----- From: Murray Freeman [mailto:mfree...@alanet.org] Sent: Tuesday, June 30, 2009 6:55 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: OUTLOOK 2003 VERY SLOW OPENING We are not using Cached Mode.
