......   paradox is running except the two programs that are not working
at all.

    ....    paradox is running slow...  i installed paradox today on a node....
i have noticed when i use a browse function (eg.  to create aliases) in paradox
to locate something: if paradox is handling the browse function it is slow
to react.  when windows handles a browse function it is fast.
