Every time I return focus to the app it freezes and the app says "not responding". It starts to work in about 10 seconds. Also, while I'm in the app it will do the same thing, especially it seems when I click in a panel. It seems to help if I go off-line so I'm thinking it is going online to check something perhaps?
Please help, Illustrator is practically unusable at this point.
Thanks,
Nigel

It was suggested in a somewhat similar case recently, but is still untested.
