That's one that has bitten me in the past. Network drive letters/UNC paths that are built into an .EXE are looked for and if they don't exist, the load waits until Windows times out looking for it. I think VFP9 added a SYS(2450) that was supposed to help with that, but never tried it.
This is somewhat related to the old CD drive problem that FPW had if you ran your .EXE on a system that didn't have a CD drive would cause problems.
