Default Message: wait while visio updates its directory cache

When I run Visio 2003 for Enterprise architects, I get a dialog screen
stating that Visio is updating
its directory cache. This (for some reason) takes about 3 minutes - every
time I run the program. You can not work anymore especially if you have to
write a documentation and you see this message everytime when pasting a
shape into word!

The horror begins when I installed the SP2 for Visio. I tried a lot: please
look here

http://www.mcse.ms/message1008153.html

like registry hacks, group policy etc. but nothing works!

I noticed the following:

When you Install a fresh visio (in my case Visio 2003 for Enterprise
Architects) every thing is working fine. The annoying thing begins after
installing a Service Pack (in my case SP2 for Visio). The Visio.bin
(user/localsettings/ApplicationData/microsoft/visio) disappears in the
moment Visio starts, and will be recreated when visio ends. Normally (on a
fresh install of visio) the Visio.bin is just created once (when you start
Visio the first time) and not touched by visio anymore. So there seems to be
a change in the settings after applying the patch. When I uninstalled Visio
and reinstall (without patch) the error is gone. (the Visio.bin doesnt
dissapear anymore)

I first met this problem in mid 2003 (with Visio 2002) - the same error with
SP1 - after installing patch - everytimes update of the directory cache.

Any other clues what I can do, or how can apply a Patch/SP without appearing
of this annoying problem?

I cant work anymore (if I install SP2 for Visio) please help!

Kind Regards

Patrick
