Problem with XP Pro and Office 2003 Pro
Problem with XP Pro and Office 2003 Pro
PocketCloud seems excellent, and we have found it most useful. However, a few days ago we found that one of our XP Pro PCs started to have problems - specifically, Office 2003 Pro hung in menu windows, and Windows Update hung in IE8. To cut a (very, very long!) story short, nothing sensible seemed to rectify the situation. We then found exactly the same problem on a second PC (XP Pro, Office 2003 Standard), and realized that the common denominator was PocketCloud. Uninstalling PocketCloud quickly rectified the situatioon on both PCs.
We wouldn't have found this problem if we hadn't used certain areas of Office, and Windows Update, but we know these were working OK until a couple of weeks ago. It seems likely that something in a recent update of PocketCloud caused the situation.
We haven't re-installed PocketCloud yet - we'd like to, but would prefer to wait until the source of the problem is found.
