When Adding or Updating a Web Service in VS 2008 (9.030729.1 ) it hangs.
If I try to add a reference in the solution - It shows me the available
services - but hangs when I choose one
If I try to add a url - it just hangs

No error , no freeze - just the browser in the add service window showing a
rolling progress bar forever

Thanks

I have the same issue. Did you ever find a fix?

Thanks,

I managed to fix this although I cannot put my finger on the exact solution, this is what i did.

1. Installed all available windows updates, including the latest MSSQL 2005 service pack and other vista updates.

2. Installed KB960075 to fix an unrelated VS2008 issue.
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/Project/Download/FileDownload.aspx?ProjectName=KB960075&DownloadId=5728

3. Rebooted to finish the updates.

Hope this helps.
