[Jamie Krug <775117@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had the same experience as @gridcube (comment 15) on Xubuntu
11.10/Oneiric; very slow first open of Thunar, with multiple instances
popping open. Last test, I tried to open my ~/Downloads folder in Thunar
(via Kupfer); while nothing was happening, I tried opening my home
folder in thunar from Terminal; shortly after *three* Thunar windows
opened (one for Home and *two* for ~/Downloads).

Joshua O'Leary's workaround (comment 13) of changing AutoMount to false
in /usr/share/gvfs/mounts/network.mount seems to fix this hang for me.
Thanks!

  Thunar hangs on first launch of each session

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunar

  ** Bug Description **
  Running a fresh install of Xubuntu Natty 32-bit, if I log in then launch Thunar (1.2.1-3ubuntu2), Thunar will not appear right away, and the desktop workspace will be unresponsive (excluding panels & other applications).  Thunar eventually appears around 20 seconds later (est.), usually accompanied by the following error popup:

  "Launch Error"
  The folder could not be opened
  Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

  In the accompanying instance of Thunar, the "Network" item is missing
  from the side pane shortcut view.

  Depending on how long I've waited, usually the second or third Thunar
  launch attempt comes up very quickly, and the "Network" shortcut is
  present in the side pane.

  I believe this is related to XFCE Bug 7373:
