Hi, there is a problem with some version of norton antivirus that do a dns lookup. So if your net is outside the internet or your dns does't resolve norton request the machine goes slow.

[Samba] Samba extremely slow on XP
I have a linux machine (1.4GHz) which shares filesystems to two Windows machines, (a) Windows 2000 (300MHz) and (b) Windows XP (2.4GHz). The XP machine, which should be faster, is about 10 times slower than the 2000 machine. Anybody any ideas.
