I do indeed mean RemoteApp (my error - not used to the terminalogy), and we updated to 6.1 - "WindowsXP-KB952155-x86-ENU (RDC6.1 client).exe" I'll find out if anyone else has similar issues when I am back inthe office on Thursday. This laptop is certainly a bit goofy at times (same can probably be said about the user too!) Cheers, Matt

I don't typically have IE distributed that way, but I just did a quick test and had no problems at all with either 32 bit or 64 bit IE 7. I haven't yet updated to IE 8 on the terminal server. Are other users experiencing the same issue? It sounds like there might be something goofy with your laptop or laptop/monitor combination. Another possibility is the RDC version. Since you're on XP SP2, did your IS department independently update the RDClient to the latest version for XP? I'm pretty sure 6.1 is available as a standalone download from MS, and I'm pretty sure it is here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=6E1EC93D-BDBD-4 983-92F7-479E088570AD&displaylang=en RS On Tue, Feb 2, 2010 at 7:47 AM, Ames Matthew B <[email protected]> wrote: Our IS department have dished out IE8 via a TS2008 publish app (normally we get to use IE6 - aren't we lucky!), for which I am part of the trial. I have noticed a couple of weird things - this is the first time I have used a published app though, so maybe they are just limitations? - I can't move the IE8 window onto my secondary screen - the mouse point moves over, the IE8 window stays on my primary desktop (jumping to the opposite side of the screen to which I was dragging it across) - I can't high-light the URL text, so I have to randomly guess where the cursor is. Anyone seen/experienced the secondary screen issue before? I have noticed that Borland's StarTeam which we use (java based) does not play nicely on the secondary screen either - the scrolling fails to work. Running on XP sp2 (so cutting edge, we have not rolled out 3 yet!) on an IBM T400. I don't recall having an issue with StarTeam on my old T41 and a secondary screen, but that was about a year ago when I used that.
