Like Windows 2000, XP suffers from a little-documented browse delay. When you browse to a Windows 9x computer name (\\computername),
your XP computer checks for Scheduled Tasks on computers to which it's connecting. This search can cause as much as a 30-second
delay. If you browse to the share name (\\computername\share), this delay won't occur. To eliminate the search for Scheduled Tasks
and increase your browse speed, delete the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RemoteComputer\NameSpace\{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF
} subkey, which is of type REG_SZ.
