But the strange thing is that I have other mapped drives to the same device
and they work absolutely fine, it is just the one particular mapped drive. I
have assigned a static IP to the device. The IP range has been added to the
trusted zone. Also I have checked and re-checked the permissions on the
shared folder. I have a 2003 server which has no issues accessing the same
mapped drive. It has the same ESET antivirus and firewall installed.

PS: Extra hair loss!
