Well it's early days yet but we haven't had any more go wrong since we put the exception is our AV scanner. I'd give it a go mate! Thanks; I did it a short while back, and haven't heard any more moans. Mind you there are only 2 users in question so the jury's still out. I found another post indicating that the path length may be a problem http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.p...99442c04bdf2a85 but I haven't investigated this yet.
Ah that may well be it, I'll give it a try and let you know what I find. We use McAfee so it does make sense. What was the result, please? We are having similar problems with some of our users. FWIW this has only started over the last 4-6 weeks :-(
