Application delays other Programs...

Hi NG,

I do not know why and hope that somebody has made a similar experience, and
found the solution.....

My application works nicely, doesn't use much memory or puts any Load on the
CPU - as far as I can tell -.
Still, as soon as my application is running , starting the windows explorer
with the key combination "Windows key" + "E" takes approximately 5 to 8
Seconds.
I my application is terminated the same thing takes way less then a second.

Looking at the taskmanager I can see, that my application uses like 10.000K
and the CPU load is by nearly 0% what seems logical, sine this application
mainly consists of 2 Threads, that have tha task to do some FTP things on
users request. User requests are signaled by events, and the threads execute
uses a WaitForMultibleObjects with a timeout of 1 Second.

So, why is it that my application causes other applications to take so long
to start them?

Thanks for Help
Rainer
