I have seen similar things happening with any application not of the
Microsoft fold. One case where xmms on a Linux box had to download/copy
the whole album from a Win2003 share before it would play (no streaming).
And another where a MS Office application (on a new WinXP Home desktop
with all non-SP2 updates applied) requests a virus scan when opening a
file on a SAMBA share (rather old RHL/SAMBA installation though) and would
take up to 2+ minutes (I tweaked settings and got it down to 20-30
seconds) to open a simple spreadsheet. OpenOffice.org opened it in 3-5
seconds.

Not yours specifically but I see a pattern here. I'll ask the guy that
sorted out the xmms issue what he did to fix it.
