Hi I had a site a couple of months back which was doing the same. Exe was local, runtimes also local vfp data on network and still running slow.
Switched off every machine and server and still 14 ports lit on the switches. Turned out to be cabling with the 5 network switches in that they had switch A connected to switch B which was connected back to switch A and so on (14 times!) No I didn't believe anyone could be so stupid either having spent hours checking the application over!! I'd recommend if it is a small network isolating it to the one machine.

(early XP desktops only had 256MB memory) If this is using SQL server check that your ODBC does have a reference to the server otherwise it has to go find a suitable system (30s-2mins delay). Degrag the drive (run checkdsk first) It is usually one of the above.
