Eric,
are you running Panther or Jaguar ? I use to have similar problem with
Jaguar (NFS mounts were even worse than SMB), but now it's gone with
Panther. With Panther, if you forget to disconnect a mount and go away,
you'll have a pop up saying something like "serve X does not respond
anymore, would you like to disconnect it?" when your computer wakes up
back home. Handy. And it works. No hangups anymore. Even works for NFS
mounts, which is great.
Cheers,
Francois

The original poster didn't specify what kind of connection they had to
the Windows computer. It may well have been a file-sharing disk mount
(SMB) connection. I have had trouble with forgetting to disconnect
from a Samba (Windows-like but running on a Sun) server before taking
my Powerbook home. The Finder and nearly all other programs get very
weird and slow because they are waiting to finish some I/O. The system
cannot be shutdown even from the command line (without using the power
button). I found that the only solution was to drive back to the
office and connect to the network....
Cheers,
++Eric
