I'm assuming that when you disconnect from the network, you still had a buffer referencing a file on the network. So Emacs tries to determine whether the file has been updated, and gets hung until the disconnected network connection times out. It was a while ago, but as I recall the fix was simply to kill the buffer trying to connect to the remote server. John J.
