Assuming it supports them do you know how to handle threads in VB? If you run the actual authentication in a separate thread to the gui it shouldn't freeze.

There is a handy java interface called swingworker which helps with the multi-threading of gui freezing tasks. Maybe VB has something similar? It can add a lot of code (especially if you need to communicate between threads), but for something like this which will be used over and over, it's probably worth it.

Other than that, as others have said, p. sexy.
