...with Sony Ericsson's PC Suite.

When it works - it works very well, allowing me to easily setup file transfers to and from the phone and writing text messages using my computer's keyboard.

However each time I start the program up, it seems to freeze for a few seconds and I get the Vista "Program not responding" blankout error message.

It's very annoying, as then Opera (my browser) does the same thing. Opera's activity of this is always just after using S.E's suite.

I usually wait a few secounds and all is fine again and I can use both. The problem arises either when I open S.E.'s software, or when it has been minimized after prior use.

I have tried running it's own update facility which reveals I'm using the latest version. I have the latest version of Java too.

I have a new handset now, so I know the problem isn't with the phone. I still get the problem described above but less often with the new one. Does anybody have an idea of what's causing my problems?
 
Google My Phone Explorer much better than the sony software and it does all the same things (very small mem foot print too). I have been using this since version 1.4.1 its not on ver 1.7 been over 2 years i think.
