SYMPTOMS

On a Windows Vista-based client computer, you create many virtual private network (VPN) connections. In this situation, the Connect to a network dialog box takes a long time to appear when you perform one of the following actions:
• Click Start, and then click Connect To
• Right-click the network icon in the taskbar, and then click Connect to a network

Back to the top

CAUSE

When you click Connect to a network, Windows Vista must retrieve all the properties of each phone-book entry. Windows Vista retrieves all locations and all dialing rules for each entry. Therefore, the Connect to a network dialog box takes a long time to appear if many phone-book entries (connectoids) are present.
