HI

I've a strange situation when I try to encrypt or decrypt a files on a remote Windows 2000 SP4 file server.

I using Win XP SP2 and share folders on server.

When I mark file as encypted/decrypted and click Apply or Yes current window hangs, local computer hangs and remote server doesn't respond to any application or computers.
Ping says server alive but this only one thing which works.

File is about 10KB so encryption proccess is very quick.

This situation not always occurs, but this is horror because it is file server and nobody can work.
After few minutes ( sometimes about 10 minutes ) server starts to work correctly.
