Enterpise Manager connection hangs or has delayed response time
                        
Enterprise Manager must page through all of the databases on the server before 
granting access to yours. The process can take anywhere from 5-40 minutes 
depending on your connection speed and network congestion. 
    
   You 
also have the option of connecting to your database with our web based sql 
manager, or through coded asp or aspx pages. 
    
   If you are using SQL 
Server 2000' Enterprise Manager, make sure you have installed service pack 3 as 
this will fix the delay.
