Sync issues with Activesync 4.1

[sakers]

I recently upgraded to the latest Activesynce from the Microsoft website. Ever since I have noticed the my sync is very slow, often times I just give up. Has anybody else had issues with syncing? If so did you get them fixed?

In the ActiveSync section of this forum a member suggested looking at your firewall settings if you have one.
I checked my Symantec Firewall and sure enough, I needed to add all the exe's in ActiveSync to my "allow" list.

You might start by disabling your virus program and in fact, everything else running and see if your sync speed improves. Then add one process at a time to see if anything else your running is slowing things down.

I asked the tech rep that and he was clueless. I'll have to try it on my own and see if I can get it to work.
