	On my desktop, when dragging MindFusion nodes, the dragging is very fast. However with all laptops with the network virus protection on, dragging components seems to slow it down. Both laptops and desktops are dual core with decent video cards. The laptop is using NVidia Quadro NVS 135M I checked the Symantec Endpoint Protection and seems like the dragging action in the laptops are delayed when a Block local file sharing is happening. Local port 137, 138 are being used. the application ntoskrnl.exe is doing this work. Is there something that I should be checking on the code to avoid any delay on the dragging action.

	Has it found any suspicious nodes? 8) We don't have much control over when the nodes are actually rendered. The control updates their position in the WPF visual tree, and I think WPF then renders the tree at some point from a background thread. The Symantec protection thread might not be giving enough processor time to the WPF rendering thread I guess...

	You might try calling this method from a MouseMove handler to force rendering: http://graemehill.ca/wpf-rendering-thread-synchronization There are plenty of other tips on the Internet: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=wpf+rendering+thread&aq=0&oq=wpf+rendering&... I hope that helps, Stoyan
