I have the same freezing problem with VSE 8.5i.

This could be due to the update process of Mcafee AV.

Any comments would be appreciated

I have same felling about this issue...

Hello,

I am currently using McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.5i + Patch 7. For some reason the computer freezes for few seconds and starts working again.
I did fresh install without ethernet cable plugged in but before I install VSE it did not freeze but after installing VSE it freezes.

You can move mouse around the screen but when you click on start or desktop icon or whatever AFTER few seconds of startup, it freezes.

Does anyone have experienced this sort of bug or something?

I notice the same thing only in time when AV "pick" new update definitions or start scheduled Weekly Scan.

Check that first.

That might be it as most people are suspecting it as an issue. When it updates,

it actually freezes or slows down the computer performance a lot for few seconds.

Btw my computer is 4-years old Dell Dimension 3000;
 - Intel Pentium 4, 2.90GHz CPU
 - 1.00GB of DDR2 RAM
 - Intel 82865G Integrated Graphic with 64MB RAM
 - 160GB 3-partitions (Knoppix, RedHat and Windows XP)

Well, I might need to just live with it Thank you for you helps!

my XP laptop is slow for like 10 minutes after bootup due to Mcafee 8.5.  Will a patch help?

I don't use VSE8.5 anymore, switched to F-Seucre. Anyway the problem was yes, the update process when computer starts up. But.. any good reason to freeze some computers? umm...
