Is it possible related to this bug - which has a partial fix in place: <http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/1728> I tried to replicate what you're seeing and I couldn't; I do have the above patch in my VM though. My test was as follows: host os: openSUSE 11.0 guest os: Windows XP host: [fly] [zoom] ----------- ----------------------------------------- SMB share VM: Open `128KB' Word DOC found on [fly] As a test, I `seeded' the VM by starting Word without opening any files. After my cache is warmed, I opened the Word DOC on `[fly]' and it opened lickity split.
