dburdick, no antivirus until a new one I finally installed late this afternoon. So I'm sure thats not been the problem. I haven't had anything else running at the same time as Vue.. This is a really fresh system install....... I was having problems getting Painter IX to run a few weeks back so did a total clean install. This long import delay was happening before the new install as well as after as far as 5 Inf was concerned. I did a new install of Poser at the same time though all the pz3s I tried today with the exception of the little hat one I made especially were from before that install. Hmmm, and some users wait even longer than me !
