Mapped drive hangs if AntiVirus software is installed.
Posted by SRT HelpDesk Admin on 16 March 2005 10:12 PM
When using WebDrive in conjunction with AntiVirus software such as McAFee or Norton, WebDrive may hang when trying to access files on the mapped drive.

This will happen if the AntiVirus software is configured to scan mapped network drives. To correct this issue, reconfigure your AntiVirus software so that it does not scan mapped drives. Also, exclude the WebDrive Cache Directory and Mirror Directory from being scanned by the AntiVirus software.

The same with ESET NOD 32, I spent quite a long time on this when switching to Vista. You have to disable scan for mapped drive!
