But since I didn't delete them one at a time and test, I don't know which one was the culprit. Also did a defrag. Again no pre- and post-test. But things seem to be going faster now. About 5 seconds to open an mdb.

Also run Sygate but same there. Is there a windows feature that might have got changed during an update? Something changed in the last week or so.

This is a P4 3GHz box w/ 2GB Ram. What would be the most common things to look at for a cause of slow openings?
