The first time you break into a building there is a 3-4 minute wait, after that everything should be OK, this happened to me and I thought that game had crashed so just wait.

If you run the game in old windows or something like that, it should help you if you use alt+TAB and then get back to game.

This is going to sound stupid but when you are breaking into a building, how do you go through doors? I can open them but when I try to go though them I just walk into the wall next to the door.

I don't remember exactly which button did it, but this is what I do know.

There are two ways of moving your character, either by the cursors or by the number pad (with Home, PgUp, PgDn & End). It was one of these buttons. You open the door and walk straight for it. The cursors however will not help you here.

I might be wrong, but this is how I remember it.
Good Luck!

I guess you mean decoding the terrorist messages? It's rather simple, you look for 2 letter words, and you decode them, for example LS you be to, or, or even he, you just try them, but if you get the letter t in the middle of a 3 letter word, youve got it wrong. It takes time, but soon it gets easy. Here's an example

GSV XZZP TMVH MGH.

THE CALL GOES OUT.

A crap example, but it'll do.
