Does anyone know how to uninstall RD. I figured with the problems I am
having with it, that if I uninstall it and then reinstall it, my
problems may clear up.

Dan (Still going in circles)

On an XP Pro box you can't uninstall the Remote Desktop host software. You can try reregistering the software or doing a "repair install" to try and clean up issues with the OS.

* Re-registering Remote Desktop using the command line that follows. Reboot the PC after doing this...
regsvr32 remotepg.dll

* Otherwise try a repair install of Windows XP... Note the warnings on the page and backup important data just to be safe...

I forgot to ask what kind of problems are you having that you think you need to reinstall Remote Desktop on the host computer?
