Question
"Other Places" in "My Computer won't respond - XP Pro on home network

The issue is with the "Other Places" section of "My Computer". If I click on "My Documents" (or any icon in the section, like "Control Panel"), the application hangs (not responding) and I eventually have to kill it manually. When I do, the desktop and taskbar blank out for a moment and then refresh. If I select the "My Documents" from the address bar or navigate to it through the folders then it works fine. It's only with the "Other Places" icons.
