I'm certainly no iSeries guru but I did come across this <a href="http://www-912.ibm.com/n_dir/nas4apar.NSF/51d11a683a56a5cc862564c000763b23/ff0248db58bf37e4862572510041e997?OpenDocument">IBM APAR #II14247</a> (contains technical details for System i Access for Windows on Windows Vista).

SYSTEM I ACCESS FOR WINDOWS AND WINDOWS FIREWALL
================================================
In Windows Vista, Windows Firewall is on by default, and is
configured to block incoming connection attempts. The following
applications within System i Access for Windows may use TCP/IP
communications internally to get their jobs done, and Windows
Vista may show an alert when they initiate such communications:
- System i Navigator (uses "cwbunnav.exe" and "Java Launcher")
File(s) that may need unblocking:
(System i Access for Windows install path)cwbunnav.exe

IS the PC is using an ATI video adapter and dual displays. The ATI driver Version 6.14 is incompatible with the Java™ Run Time Environment that iSeries Navigator ships. After updating the ATI driver to Version 7.x, iSeries Navigator runs fine.
On some other issues after the user completely uninstalled and reinstalled iSeries Access for Windows and installed the V5R3 Service Pack SI18398, the problem was no longer reported.
