It has a small program that times how long someone is on the internet on either one of the two other PC's (named black and white). This is a program that someone made for the owner so I am not very sure about the program. When someone logs on one of the WINXP machines it starts timeing them. This has been up and running for a very long time. The only thing that changed was when we renamed the workgroup name on all of the pc's at the same time. Since then it has not worked. no other changes have been done. The name for the workgroup is the same on all of three of the PC's. We have tried accessing the other PC's with out the program running and with. It give the same error both ways.
