    Hi,
    I seem to have a problem with Windows Explorer coming to a hung after a USB-stick has been inserted to a USB slot. It takes up to 20 seconds when it's visible and accessible. Sometimes Windows Explorer doesn't respond until Windows finds the USB stick. However, this occurs only when it's mounted in the first Windows session. No matter which brand I insert, the same thing happens. Could it be connected Comodo Internet Security Pro 2011 or not necessarily?

    Have you tried another USB slot? I've never come across this. If you want to know i it is your security software, exclude it from scanning external drives & see what happens.
