359980 2005-05-31 06:13:00 I'm running 3 PC's (Windows XP Professional) though a DLINK Hub in a Peer-to-peer network.

Every time I try to open and or save a document in Word, Excel, Powerpoint etc. I get very very slow response when clicking on the "Look In" button on the dialogue box.

I always get to the folder I'm looking for but it can take 2-3 minutes to work down or up a tree. Any other applications the dialogue box opens immediately.

I've got good Virus protection and Firewall enabled.

Any suggestions?
