Sounds like it could be antivirus-software related. See

>The server has been Win2000 SP3 for some time, so the server is not the issue. Anti-virus has been disabled completely so we know that is not the issue either. When only one XP user is logged in to our app, the performance is faster than it was under NT4. However, when additional users log in then the performance goes way down below the multi-user access benchmark that was achieved with NT4 workstations.
