We saw the same problem; two customers out of 1000 had a slowness problem. When windows was re-installed, the problem went away.
As Howard suggested, I also read somewhere that the anti-virus conflicts can contribute to this problem.
I would be interested to know if you resolve the problem, though.

>Hi,
>I have a VFP 6.0 system which until yesterday was working without any problem. The problem started when the version of the application was updated. This updating process basically installs new executables and changes some tables' structures. ANY operation on my application is taking minutes to complete. Before the updating it was fast, without major performance issues.
>Obs.: This problem is occuring on a 20 machines environment and there are other companies using the exact same version without problems. I have already tested the performance of the server (via Performance Monitor) and does not exist excessive CPU/Memory use (CPU average use - 1%). This server only hosts the DBF files. All machines accessing the application have their own executables locally.
