Hi!

I have several persistent network drives on my WinXP PC. If some of them are
not available, Windows Explorer dies forever at start-up trying to connect
to network drives.
Is there a way to make Explorer not to connect net drives at start-up but
only show drive letters, and connect later, when I click on this or that
drive?

Thanks.
Mikhail
