I have just contacted MAXTOR (who was bought by SEGATE??) and they said they
are aware of it, and are working on the issue. Did not get a warm fuzzy that
they consider it an urgent issue??? The agent said "~I can't believe we
would not have it fixed for the release of VISTA."

Hello,

This is actually caused by an incorrect behavior of Samba, and the NAS
device by proxy.

Windows Vista uses a feature that receives the list of files really quickly.
The reason third-party apps may work is becuase they do not use this
feature.

Unfortunately, this is not something than can be fixed in a release of
Vista, because the problem is not in Vista.
