It is. A colleague of mine is complaining lately that the file dialogs
take a very long time (according to him sometimes multiple minutes) to 
appear. I'm on the same network and I don't have delays like that, 
although the dialog is slow. I have always presumed it has something 
to do with how many shares you have mapped and / or the type of share
(assuming that there are different types of shares, I haven't seen them)
