Check how much available space you have on the local hard drive when you are starting or  
running OW.  Whenever one of our machines has trouble getting it to run, it is usually (always  
now?) because its hard drive reports that it has no space available on it.  (This is due to the way  
NS handles swap space -  

	a)  If there isn't enough free space on a drive to begin with, there may not be enough swap  
space to run OW and whatever else you are running, and
	b)  NS doesn't seem to free up swap space even after an application is quit.  A reboot every  
so often fixes this problem.)

This seems to be in sync with your saying that it works, at least for a while, after you reboot.
