Yes, I tested for this specific issue.

Hehe.hmm....is it that transferring 0 Bytes takes 5+ seconds?? The only other thing I can spot is the ass backwards way to renames the copy folders as it literally seems increment the number some times sometimes it adds another -copy to the end of the folder.
Hehe.
It's not the time to copy since Windows still needs to create the empty files.
The incrementation only occurred because I copied one folder. Then I copied the original and the copy. Then I copied the original, the copy, the second copy and the copy of the copy. And so on. So it's actually expected behavior (and frankly better than XP's "Copy of" prefix IMO).

Good to know that you've tracked down the likely cause of this problem. It's good to see someone take feedback (poignant or even almost flaming) well and then work hard to track down the true source of the problem once informed that your first hunch wasn't correct.
More importantly it's 2^14. Now I'm not alleging that this is what's happening, seeing how it's not happening to me, but it's pretty common for software to fail on numbers like these.
One thing I'll add from my own experience so far with Vista:
It sure seems a lot slower to me overall when it comes to file copy/move operations. I drag a bunch of stuff from one place to another and it just seems sllooooowwwwwww compared to previous versions of Windows. Copy/move something to or from a USB thumbdrive with USB 2.0 support and it just seems sllooooooowwwwwwww compared to previous versions of Windows.
I mean, copying a single 1GB file (a VOB file just for testing) from one partition on the drive to another - an 80GB 7200 rpm 8MB buffer drive on an ATA100 controller - and Vista says it's transferring at 3MB/s? Say it ain't so, Billy-boy, say it ain't so...
I'm not going to do benchmarks since it's a waste of time, all I can do is say I think it's slower than previous versions of Windows.
YMMV, as always.
I've read worse. You conveyed the meaning to the people that needed to understand it. If language is designed for communication, you have achieved your goal.P.S.: do you think my English is lousy - or just horrible ?
Use AVG Free instead of Kaspersky dude.

Since you're replying to the thread, then you've read it and know the issue is Kaspersky.
AVG works well.
This night I have transferred about 200Gb for an amount of files that it should be more then this 16,384 limit with Kaspersky installed and with no "out of memory" error appearing.
Has Kaspersky solved the problem and sent automatic updates to all users??
Any other confirmation that this bug has been fixed? I have a client using Kaspersky on a Dell Laptop w/Vista; He hasn't run into file copy errors (and has definitely copied more than 16,384 files) but his system is running particularly slow considering it is a nearly clean install w/ 2GB RAM & 2.33GHz C2D proc.
I might just ask him to uninstall Kaspersky tomorrow, but he probably won't be happy since he just purchased his license...
I might have a slow system too.
How can you say that the computer you refere is slow?
Are you talking only about the disk reading or "everything"??
What hdds does it have? What are its HDTach Scores?
Thank you.
Hello
...
How can we bypass til Kaspersky has fixed the problem:
Version a) boot from time to time - before you reach that limit of 16'384 files
Version b) un-install Kaspersky --- it is NOT enough just to DISABLE Kaspersky, you will fail anyway on that limit !!!
Version c) use some other tool to copy/move files, maybe it works (probably it works, when the tool BYPASSES Kaspersky !!!)
