Subject: PsExec Slow with Firewall Enabled

I also had this problem when trying to use a Win7 machine to run a program remotely on a WinXP machine. In the WinXP machine Windows Firewall, I opened TCP port 80 for the IP address of the Win7 machine, and this seems to have fixed the problem. I also created an exclusion for psexesvc.exe in my antivirus program, and this sped things up by another couple of seconds.
