Our network uses Novell Netware, client version 3.1. On most machines there is no problem. However, on a handful, the system seizes up when logging in. All of these systems are using Office 97, and the shortcut bar. Explorer and the microsoft shortcut bar stop responding for about 1-2 minutes, then everything progresses normally. What is the cause of this?

Does MSOffice reside on the PC or on the Network? If it resides on the PC then it sounds like a resource issue. How much physical and virtual memory are you using. What type of settings do you have in config.sys

Hope this points you in the rightdirection

Try deleting everything in the C:\Windows\Recent folder. Then Restart. If a file was on a network drive and is located in the recent folder, Office will try to get to this file before you log into the LAN, of course this causes problems.
