Hi
If you use Process Monitor, you'll be able to see what
drives/UNC paths XSI is checking for when you open the
browser.
I had a support case the other week that was pretty much
the same problem.
After trying different things (most of which have been
suggested in this thread) over the course of a couple of days, the customer
wrote back to say that the problem has just magically gone
away.

slow
If I start a new project and try and save a clean scene into that
project, I have the same problem. It doesn't look like it's anything in a
particular project or scene that's causing the problem. It just looks as if XSI
(and the flipbook) are checking all over the place for machines (or disks) that
aren't there any more. No other software has this problem.

Did
you check external files in your scene?
How can I check for that stuff?

nothing through non-mapped, UNC pathways? Sorry, just being sure we’re talking
about the same things.
We have shared storage on a mapped drive on one of our
machines. The machine that's been removed had never been linked to in any
way.
