Excel Hang unless I disable my LAN

[Excel user]

Hi there,

I am having problem to open my excel files. Each time I open a file, it will
take 10 minutes to open a small file. However, I do noticed that there is
alot of activities outgoing in my LAN connection status.

If I disable my LAN connection. Then I have no problem open my excel files.
I did everything all I can like update my Norton antivirus, perform scanning,
update my excel through microsoft.

Please help

Are there any "broken" network links, for example, mapped drives to
computers that are switched off or no longer on the LAN. I think
Windows/Excel will try to search these non-existent drives before timing
out.

Regards

Trevor
