I use Win NT and Win 95, and SQL*Plus does sort of stop responding when a long query is running, and also when I first connect to a database. It's especially noticable when I connect using a dial-up conection to our corporate lan because of the number of hops between the dial-up server and my database. However, I am usually able to alt-tab to other applications.
