Platform: .NET 2.0
Environment: Windows Vista (32-bit)

i was having alot of problems with my app taking forever to load on vista, but it was fine on XP.. however after lots of looking i narrowed it down
i can create a plain winforms app and drop syntax editor on (i am using v3 - 216 ).. and have no code or anything, and copy that over to vista.. and it may take about 3 or 4 minutes until the application comes up..
however it has something to do with the networking..
my vista machine isn't on the internet, but it is on my wifi lan so i can copy files over to run.. (also it has some network shares (not referenced or in use) that it can't get to, but that should be fine)..
anyhow.. when that wifi connection is on.. it a simple winforms app that just has syntax editor on it, takes up to 5 minutes to load.. however the second i turn off the wifi adapter, i can load it instanteously.. then if i turn the wifi back on , it takes forever to load yet again.
also a winforms app that doesn't have syntax editor on it, loads fine and quick every time
is there something you are doing networking wise, checking file shares, checking to the internet or something that with some combination with vista might be going very slow until some timeout?
