I searched for material on this problem, but didn't find anything here. This post from the tablet forum describes the problem I am experiencing (I have 12 VPN and >50 Dialup connections) -- a lengthy (>5 minutes) wait for the networks to be displayed in "connect to network" applet. This is a dual core Vista Business laptop with a user account that has all these dialups still in place from the days when broadband access was rare.Finally, it is not clear how to delete established connectoids in the new Vista interface.Here's the post, which states that >120000 registry operations take place looking at keys for 18 VPN connections:http://www.tabletquestions.com/windows-vista/39639-connect-network-substantial-delay-businesss-rtm.html
