Hi again. It turns out that IDEA freezes on NT directory browsing if there are stale drive mappings. We removed the stale mappings and it sprang back to life - obviously something unpleasant happening when IDEA asks the OS about available drives when these point to shares that are no longer available.
Hope this helps someone.
