Not very long ago, I had an issue on a computer at work. It would work without problems, except when downloading large amounts of small files from an FTP-server. When doing that, the entire computer would eventually freeze, though it would still download files in the background, until the entire download was done. Updating the network card driver fixed this problem.
Calibre loads a very large amount of small files when starting, so I thought it might be a similar issue.
I've also seen the idea to install Calibre Portable, which is completely independent from the current main Calibre installation. Has this been tried already?
