Thanks to you all for your advices. However, I don't think the reasons you
highlight might be the cause. The data is only my local drive. It is a small
file 475KB and there are no other added layers. I think the problem is in
the software functioning when converting .kml file to .shp file.
I'm using QGIS 2.8.2 (64 bit)

My advice would be to get a copy of the data on the local drive for her
computer and try it that way to remove any network issues.

All the layers come off the same server that holds all our GIS data. The GIS
data is held on a MS SQL server and copies of that data are made into TAB
and SHP files overnight. In this case, the user has her own mapped drive
with her own copy of those files (I can be risk averse as well).
I know that I haven't changed anything. It is hard to know who may have made
changes and what changes they made.

The other layers are coming off the network? If it's been working fine
something else has changed by the sounds of it.

Thanks for the quick response Nathan,
I'm not sure if you are familiar with Dial Before You Dig. When a request is
made for information about the underground assets in a particular area, our
council is one of the organisations that are asked to respond. That request
is emailed to us and contains a .gml file with the specified location
details.
In order to speed up the processing at our end, I set up a project file that
accepts this gml file, we zoom to the layer, align that with the canvas and
produce the pdf file that goes back to the initial requestor.
It worked fine for at least the last year. The layers in the project file
are not large. The largest is 13Mb, the smallest is a few kilobytes. There
are 17 layers in the project. I have had a request to put aerial imagery
under the maps, but have resisted that because of the size of the images.
What else do you need to know?

but IT tell me it is the nature of open source software.
Good thing your IT is wrong then hey :P
I also suspect network if the files are large it will pull the whole thing
over the network before it can open it. GML also isn't the most efficient
format in the world so take that into consideration.
What other layers are in the project? If you have lots of network layers it
will try and read them when you load the new layer in order to refresh the
map, remember each pan is going to read the files to get the data.
We will need a bit more info on the project and files to help more.
