[QUOTE="MacsWork, post: 1346947, member: 11094"] I don't know for sure what OS X does when viewing a network directory. It does however create a DS_Store file in each directory it views. Like the Thumbs.db or Desktop.ini that windows creates. It does create the icon preview just like Windows. You may have noticed Windows showing you a lot of blank documents only to slowly have their preview fill in over a period of time dependent on network latency and directory size. Perhaps OS X simply creates the display all at once. Have you tried browsing the network while in column or list views? Does the view type matter? I'd be curious to find out. Please post back.
