Network folder recognition prohibitively slow

Hi

Why does XP take so long to see other computers in my workgroup?

Bandwidth is not a problem when I move files, but finding them is always such a sweat. Especially when I right-click (to get the copy command) a shared file on another PC. The computer just about freezes, so I have to kill explorer.

I'm guessing that to open a context menu on a network file Windows needs to know about it, so it has to download at least part of the file. But heck, its just too annoying.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

TZ
