FM 9 Blinking linked images

[Dave Reynolds]

I have also worked on a network for many years - both the Frame files 
and referenced graphics are on a network drive. Mostly this works really 
well, especially in recent years with network upgrades.

There are two occasions when I canremember having serious speed 
problems. The first was in 2008 when the company upgraded our antivirus 
software. It was set to scan certain types of graphic file as Frame was 
importing them. Excluding these file types from being scanned solved 
that problem. The second was earlier this month, again after an upgrade 
to the antivirus software. When importing a file from a network 
directory, the AV software decided it should scan that directory and any 
sub-directories first. Once that was turned off, speed returned to normal.

Just posting this in case it's of any use to anyone in the future.

Cheers

Dave
