In most households it's common for a family to have more than one computer. Heck, between my fiancace and I we have five machines for set up for various tasks. What has always bothered me is how long it takes for one PC to connect to another. One of the reasons for the delay is your computer will check for any scheduled tasks on the remote PC. The more that PC has, the longer you wait. <BR><BR>If you're using WindowsXP you're in luck because there's a registry tweak you can do to speed up the process. First load up regedit (start -> run -> regedit then press ok) and follow this path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> Software -> Microsoft -> Windows -> Current Version -> Explorer -> RemoteComputer -> NameSpace. Once you're there delete the {D6277990-4C6A-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} key and reboot.<BR><BR>Next time you use that PC to browse the network it will no longer check for scheduled tasks before hand.
