Hi Chad,

The client is a stand alone XP Home PC that is not behind
ISA. However the PC has Zone Alarm Firewall installed. It
is basic 56k modem dial up to the Internet. I have not
connected this PC to the server in the traditonal
client/server SBS2003 set up. I am trying to simulate a
PC at cybercafe type of scenario.

I have turned the Zone Alarm Program control to Off and
Set the Firewall Zone to Low (Zone Alarm cinsider this as
firewall off).

Out of interest the check your email in Remote Web
Workpace seems to work ok.

Any Ideas appreciated

Michael
