My first guess is that the profile doesn't have certain rights that it needs. Does it happen with only one profile, or several? Does it happen only on certain files or directories? This should determine if it's the profile at fault, or just the file/directory permissions.

One possible sticking point is that profiles that are part of the Administrators group on the SQL machine automatically have sysadmin privileges (unless specifically changed). If you see differences between profiles, that is one area to check. Don't know why it would hang rather than just error out, though.
