Another update, I (again) removed all traces of VNC, including all registry entries, then ran a couple of different registry consistency checkers, cleaned up what they reported, rebooted, ran the checkers again, then installed vnc 4. Same Problem.
I was also contacted off list by another person that is seeing this behavior on more and more of their systems, and who hasn't been able to get any help. I think there's a real problem here that needs looking into. So much, in fact, that I've requested price quote for a support contract for my home network, from realvnc.org. We'll see what they come back with. -- Kelly F. Hickel Senior Software Architect MQSoftware, Inc. 952.345.8677 [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -----Original Message----- > From: Kelly F.
