Mike: Try disabling the firewall entirely and see if you can get through. BTW, I am not going to CC you because of EarthLink's challenge/response spam-blocking system. If you want to add me to your list of "allowed" systems, I'll be glad to CC you, but I really dislike challenge/response systems, almost as much as I hate spam! :-)

My pc running the vnc server is an XP pro machine, sp2. It is not connected to a router yet, wanting to add only one complication at a time. The pc is connected directly to the dsl modem. I was given an IP address that would be my static IP, and when I checked it using whatismyip.com, it does come back with the IP i was provided. I am using MS' built in firewall, and I have VNC Server set up in it as an exception to be allowed. Thank you, Mike Minor Z-Code Systems, Inc.
