Well, it's worth a shot.... it might have updated something so that it now
perceives VNC as a threat.

Good ideas but . . .I think I have had SP2 all along (though I am not 100%
sure -- is there any way to check my upgrade history?).  My XP firewall is
off.  I do have Norton Firewall, but I have forwarded the ports (and it
worked before I forwarded ports).  I have also disabled firewall
temporarily, and still does not work. 
 
I could try disabling antivirus, but I had that before, so not sure why that
would matter now.

By any chance did you upgrade to XP SP2 shortly before this problem started
happening? If so, you might want to verify that the VNC Server app, 
winvnc4.exe is set as "allowed" in the XP firewall. Also, check to make sure
you don't have any other "security" software which might be blocking VNC.
There are a number of reports that some antivirus apps will see VNC as 
malware and block it.

The "server" computer is connected to the router by wire.  The remote
computer has been tried from work (wired) and from my home wireless, 
connected to my work VPN and then attempting to come back into the server.
Both used to work; neither does now.

Thanks for any help.

Appreciate any help.

I installed RealVNC 4.1 Free Edition, using NO-IP to take care of my dynamic
addressing issues.  Worked fine from the get-go, both locally and from work
over internet.  I did not even need to set up port forwarding on my Netgear 
WGT624 router.

Suddenly, it has stopped working via the Internet, though it still works
fine over the LAN.  I have tried forwarding ports 5900-5910 and 5800-5810,
and still does not work.  I disabled fast-user switching (which HAd been 
enabled) and turned off remote access -- and still no luck.

What else can I try?

Thanks,
Ken
