YES! I've finally found someone that is having a similar issue as me. Mine
tends to unfreeze as soon as I disconnect my network connection (we use
offline files for our redirected start menu folder).
Any time I get the dreaded 'not responding' box, I might as well restart
because the computer isn't the same afterwards. I've tried updating all my
drivers, software, and Bios to make sure everything is current. I've even
run PC Doctor and tested all of the components from a bootable CD so I know
its not malfunctioning hardware.
