Hmm, we are seeing similar issues with Word, which go away when we start remove one of our Word startup templates (and which also go away if we roll back the date on the PC). I suspect it is related to this: http://www.internetnews.com/ec-news/article.php/3294021 Regards, Gaby -----Original Message----- From: Naren - Pactech [mailto:naren () pactech net] Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2004 5:41 AM To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: Some abnormal behavior when opening excel and word files .. Hi guys, I have a problem with a site .. When the PC is connected to the LAN, opening local Excel and Word files take abnormally long time .. disabling the AV does not make a difference .. and a lot of SYNs are shown to the Verisign IPs of crl.verisign.com .. 198.49.161.200 - 198.49.161.205 - 198.49.161.206 However, if the Network cable is disconnected, the Excel and Word files open faster ... with no connections attempted to crl.verisign.com .. Anyone have any idea what could be the cause ? Thanks in advance ..
