You may want to check out this thread that Jeff Pitsch started a while
back...

=======> FORWARD:
Yes it was something they actually went to Robin about and he said it
was an undocumented fix and that everyone should be running the latest
and greatest.

Interesting. I can't believe that no one has come across that before. So
what version of UPHClean were they using?

Ok, in the final analysis from Microsoft, the problem was the simple
fact
that the customer was using an older version of UPHCLEAN.  UPHCLEAN was 
deleting some registry entries too early and Office was trying to write
to
them after they were removed sending the process into a nasty little
loop.

Jeff, just following up on this one.  Did disabling the error Reporting

Subject: [THIN] PS4 apps keep hanging randomly- please help!


Hi group,

Sorry for a bit of a re-post but I'm really in the pickle now.

I'm trying to troubleshoot a recent problem we are having. Users logging
to published apps (MS Office 2003) and are working fine for some time
(anywhere from 3 min to 12 hours)and then the app title says "Not
Responding" and the app hangs. If you have more apps within same session
they may remain responsive or can be non-responsive as well. CMC shows
session as active and if admin shadows the session he connects to the
same hanged app. You can disconnect and reconnect to that application
but can not make it responsive again. This is a new install and we just
let more users on the system. Currently there are only 5-6 users on the
HP Proliant DL 380 G4 with 4GB of RAM. I am not sure what to do. There
is no event log entries - no errors on the screen. If I force to log
session off using my PC's Citrix connection Manager it does it but for
every non-responsive app I get this common window with message about not
responsive app and option to "End Now". So it does look like it is the
app that hangs.  

Other farm info:

PS4 on W2K3 SP1 + critical patches (we use WSUS) 
All the critical and recommended PS4 hotfixes
Microsoft Office 2003 SP2
My Documents redirected to users home folders using GP
UPHClean v1.5d (going to put 1.6d tonight)
McAfee Enterprise 8.0i
