alice-teacher Alice 2.2 - Win 7 - problems with saving on network drive

[ronnkedwell at sympatico.ca]

Hi,
 
We are running XP on are machines, but students are having the same problem. (Alice 2.2 08/05/2011)
 
Worlds with maybe five objects are taking 5 - 10 minutes to save.  We discourage the students from saving to the C:\ drive because they cannot move to another computer and I also mark from their network accounts.
 
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated in this matter.
 
Thanks,
Ronn
