Turns out you were right. The firewall is normally controlled by our antivirus software, but something was malfunctioning. That would explain why safemode worked and normal windows did not. Reinstalling the antivirus solved the problem. Thanks.

I have a user who uses a Windows 7 computer and has a drive mapped to a drive on a windows server 2003 machine. However, she is having trouble copying files over 1 MB in size from the Windows 7 machine to the drive. The little copying dialog comes up, says &quot;calculating,&quot; and then hangs. She's let it run overnight and it was still going the next morning. The only way to get rid of the dialoge is to restart the machine.<br />
<br />
Interestingly enough, she can copy files from the mapped drive back to her own computer with no trouble at all. Further more, none of our other Windows 7 users are having this issue.<br />
<br />
I've made sure that network discovery was turned on. I've also tried to reproduce the problem using my account and succeeded. Booting up into Safe Mode with Networking seems like it allows us to copy the files, although we didn't try anything larger than 46 MB.<br />
<br />
Any thoughts?

Copying files across causes hangup

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.

Windows 7

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
