I've managed to narrow the problem down to a couple of plugins, inspector
and online help widget. Online help doesn't surprise me, since we are
behind a proxy and access to online stuff is always problematic. Not sure
about the problem with the inspector plugin, but we can live without it for
a while I guess.
I disabled these in a pretty ugly way. In the file spyderlib/spyder.py, on
line 668, I see:
if CONF.get('inspector', 'enable'):
I just commented out the self.inspector.register_plugin() line.
I wasn't sure of the way CONF.get works, I tried setting enable to false in
config.py, but this didn't seem to work. What file is CONF.get reading to
determine whether 'inspector' 'enable' is True or False?
