Checkout hangs with Bzr Explorer in Windows 7

I would guess this is something like a firewall or virus scanner slowing something down.

Could you please hit Ctrl-break, which should drop you into a debugger, then type 'bt' and then paste the output.

Thanks for the response!

Some updates:
Another Windows 7 user is reporting the same behavior with the Explorer. Note that all of this interaction is on an internal network.

We tried the ctrl+break from the command line and, oddly enough, today we were able to do a checkout with no delays at all. However attempting a checkout through the Explorer still does not work.

One detail I left out yesterday is that the hang seems to happen where the password prompt should be displayed. A new log seems to support this:

You may want to try setting "BZR_SSH=paramiko" as an environment
variable. ssh and plink have trouble generating a password prompt,
especially when being driven from a graphical interface.

You can set it as a global env variable in Environment Variables, or
local to the current command line with:
 set BZR_SSH=paramiko

If you just want to try it first.

That tells us to use a python SSH implementation, which lets us prompt
for passwords, etc, easier. We default to openssh if it is found, on the
idea that you would already have configured ssh to have your private
keys, etc.
