Dave, Windows ME has an irritating habit of enabled Internet Connection Sharing and thereby causing all manner of network issues.
In order to get a log of connection messages (and errors) under Windows Me, you can add the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/RealVNC/WinVNC4/Log as a REG_SZ with the value "*:file:0,Connections:file:30" - this will log connection information to the file C:\temp\winvnc4.log.
