I'll get back to you on that.

Uninstalling/reinstalling rarely solve problems. These are often due to bad configuration in the Gimp profile and this one is kept across reinstalls. Better erase/rename your profile to make Gimp create a fresh one.

Long delays could be due to Gimp trying to access a drive which doesn't exist. Possible culprits are a network share or the old "phantom" diskette drive in the BIOS.

well, you're right. I completely uninstalled. removed every instance of GIMP. Cleaned the registry and reinstalled. Still the same problem exists so I renamed the profile, restarted and it's still the same. I'm not going to be overly concerned if that is the only slow issue I have.

I just didn't want to invest a lot of time on a program if it isn't going to live up to expectations.

Anyway, I'm going to give it a whirl for a week or two and see whether it and I are compatible.

Thanks for your help.
