unable to resolve host by name: (11001)

[James Weatherall]

Michael,

No need to reinstall - just check the file association for .vnc files
(Tools->Folder Options->File Types from any Explorer window) and make sure
that the command-line for Opening those files looks something like:

"C:\program files\RealVNC\VNC4\vncviewer.exe" -config "%1"

i.e. the path to vncviewer.exe on your system, followed by the -config and
"%1" options.

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
