Thanks for the advice. I updated the NIC & graphic drivers for my 3COM
3C905C-TX & Intel 81x to the latest from the manufacturers' website, but
they didn't seem to help much. Any pointer or advice on troubleshooting
this? I wonder if other programs that access the network (IE 5.x, Lotus
notes, etc) might create any conflict that brings to the hangup. I am also
diabling the Norton antivirus's auto-protect feature (before my sys admin
finds out :-), just to give it a shot.
TIA.

Sounds like a dodgy driver, or hardware, if changing the OS didn't help.
VNC is fairly demanding of the display and network hardware, so bugs in
those or their drivers are the first to show up.
