Antivirus? I have seen similar behavior with Vipre on a Windows 2000 Terminal server.

So SK sees the behavior remotely and locally. CF only sees it remotely. That right?

Also, if you disconnect the RDP session, you can reconnect easily. If you log off or reboot the server, you better have a lot of time to do what you want to do.

The behavior is different if you're physically at the console?

Once you get there, everything else seems fine. I can't for the life of me figure out why.

Does anyone else have this problem? Remoting to the server using Remote desktop, the "applying Security Settings" stays on for 45 minutes, then I can sign on, but the "Applying Computer Settings" box stays up for another 2-3 hours. Once on the system, a simple thing like a Flash player upgrade (to get a broadband speed test done) takes over an hour. This is on several of these servers. Naturally, all are at remote sites. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
