VNC-List digest, Vol 1 #299 - 22 msgs

I got my original problem fixed :) Thanks to all who sent in suggestions, 
but the problem was something I wouldnt ever have thought of.

A recap of my problem, incase the makers of RealVNC want to list and look 
into it: I installed RealVNC on my parents comp. They recently got an 
EMachines running Windows XP(Home edition) and Cable internet. What was 
happening was that it installed and loaded up fine. But when you restarted 
or shut down the comp it would not load up. But it would still appear in the 
tasks running on the comp so you couldnt open a new one until you 
Ctrl+alt+deleted and closed the unworking one. Then, if you opened manually, 
it would work.

So, what I did to try and combat this was disable winvnc in the Admin 
Tools>Services list, and put a shortcut to it in my Startup folder. The 
program would open, show itself on the taskbar, and otherwise appear to be 
running perfectly, but I could not connect with it from home. I played 
around with settings here and there but to no avail.

Finally, In a last desperate attempt, I set the Software Firewall I put on 
my parents comp(ZoneAlarm) to not load at startup. Lo-and-behold, it worked. 
So I have uninstalled it from my parents comp(Im doubtfull hackers will be 
too interested in it, and they still have good Anti-virus stuff). What 
stumps me though is, on my comps at home I have both zonealarm and realvnc 
running at startup on Win98 with no problems. For some reason WinXP, 
RealVNC, and ZoneAlarm dont mix. Although RealVNC ran fine manually with 
zonealarm on my parents comp still.

I hope that the makers of this program will look into this, because I would 
really like ZoneAlarm to work with RealVNC on thier comp. You can download a 
completly free version for testing(the same kind they use) from Zonelabs.com

And again, thanks to Victor and the other guys that gave me great 
suggestions :) They really helped narrow down the problem to an eventual 
solution.
