Unfortunately I think most of the suggest made by Jinish don't fit the situation as you said that the user can open a local file with no delay. Also to be sure I understood properly, you can open the same file on your machine okay, as well as if the user copies it to their C: drive?

I would try basic troubleshooting first:

- Run Excel in safe mode (start, run, "excel /safe"). If that fixes the problem, the issue is with an Excel add-on.
- Temporarily disable the anti-virus and see if that works.

If those don't work, please let us know if there are problems with other Excel files or other programs, or is this problem specific to one file? It could be a corrupted file; Try and save it in a different format (example if it is an XLSX, save it as an older Excel XLS file).
