Have you run any monitor logs? More to the point are you sure that it is the network and not (RAM, Processor, Disk Cache...) something else? Check the evert viewer and verify everything is okay there as well. If you can narrow down what is lagging the system out you will know the answer. Much as your gonna love this remember the monitor (network or system) will eat up some memory and processor space as well, so it\'s always a good idea to run a benchmark log first wih nothing else running.
