This document lists possible resolutions for slow logons when running the ICA Win32 Client on Windows 2000. 1. Prior to ICA Client build 6.00.963, logons attempted to write to a licensing key on the client device. This caused a delay while the timeout occurred. However, that issue is resolved with the newest client, 6.00.963. Verify that you are running this version or greater. 2. If drive A is being queried, try disabling client drive mapping. If logon performance improves as a result of client drives not mapping during logon, see the Citrix KB article How to Disable Floppy (A:) Drive Query at Logon . NOTE: This issue appears only with Windows 2000 clients. 3. McAfee Virus Scan has been found to cause the Windows 2000 client to perform very poorly. Other manufacturers` antivirus products could cause similar problems. If an antivirus product is running on the client device, disable it and retest the connection to the MetaFrame server.
