When i try creating a new Dynamic Web project or a Java project using the New project Wizard, it hangs at that point ( i.e. i am not taken to the next step though I am able to cancel it) or sometimes it takes me to the next step in which i create a Target runtime for the project (
Tomcat Installation Directory) and it hangs there.
