Delay on opening network files

I have Microsoft Office 2007 Professional. Whenever I attempt to open a file
on a network drive, the office program will hang (word/excel, etc), and down
on the bottom I will see "Downloading <filename>" and the progress bar will
not move. About 5 minutes later, the file will open, and I receive the
following error:

" cannot be accessed. The file may be corrupted, located on a server that is
not responding, or read only.

Sometimes the " is replaced with an *

However, this ONLY occurs the first time I attempt to open a file in the
morning. After this happens, I have no further issues opening anything else.

I have experimented with keeping/removing my Anti Virus, and that has not
helped. I have also checked permissions on the network folders and checked if
the read only attribute is set, but everything looks normal.

Thanks

I too am having the same exact issue. Have you had any luck figuring this
one out Yet?

Did you guys ever figure this out?
This is EXACTLY what is happening to us and I can't figure it out for the life of me.

Thanks!!
