I have written a vb6 program that accesses space delimitted files on the hard drive.
When run in XP the file accessing portion runs many times slower than when the program is run on ME (????)
Can anyone suggest why?
Someone suggested that the presence of a program like Norton's Firewall might be the fault, even when disabled.
Thanks for any help
