Nope. I have it disabled on both my machine and the Windows 7 box. L Unless they somehow have a sneaky way of turning it back on without it showing as being enabled. I'm having problems connecting back to the local AVG server on the WAN from that machine as well, so a firewall would make sense, but that was the first thing I checked. I'll have to go back to that machine (it's located in another facility on my way to/from work) and double-check, but I'm about 99% sure I turned off the integrated firewall and did not install another one.

It is on the WAN, and is part of the domain. I've tried VNC, but can't get it to run the server portion. The VNC folks say that the viewer will run on Windows 7, but not the server, at least not the free version. J 2) I would like to have it auto-log on (it's a workstation in a "lab" area where the users are not highly computer literate) at boot up. I know how to do that using TweakUI on XP. I don't know how to do that on Vista or Windows 7. Will TweakUI work on that O/S? John-AldrichTile-Tools No virus found in this incoming message.
