Can't you override that.
You're really putting me off vista here. I need to upgrade very soon and am trying to decide wether to go with vista. I see the odd person who likes it but the negatives still seem to be in the majority. (that may be because happy people tend not to say where cheesed off people usually shout.)

>>We ran into a problem with Vista here as well. On a workstation or server with shared folders, the shared folders will be available for hours and sometimes days and then all of a sudden, the workstation or server is no longer visible on the network. The workstation or server actually has to be rebooted to be visible on the network again. In the meantime, when you try to get to the shared folder, you have to put up with the endless wait for the timeout to occur. Not to mention if you open up windows explorer and have a drive mapped to that shared folder the endless wait that happens...

>>>I agree with your points. But in addition, after using Vista here at work for several months, I have come to the conclusion that it sucks. Several times a day it freezes up for two or three minutes. And at least once a day I have restart it. Vista seems to slow down the longer it is running. I have had to turn off all the visual enhancement (classic windows mode) in order to do basic things in VFP. But still, when openning a Open File dialog still takes several seconds (up to 30 seconds).
