As a test, what happens if you uninstall the McAfee firewall (and antivirus)
altogether from the laptop?

I am having trouble using Remote Web Workplace to connect to either the SBS
server or a workstation desktop.

This appears to be a workstation issue. On a different workstation, not
configured with a SBS connection, I can remotely connect to both desktops.

The trouble laptop can successfully make a connection to the SBS network,
connect to ISA using firewall client, log onto the RWW and run remote web
Outlook.

The list of workstation desktops available to log onto using RWW is shown
but the error message "Remote Desktop Disconnected" is received.

I've added the IP address for the SBS server to the trusted sites zone in
IE
6.0.

The McAfee firewall on the trouble laptop is disabled but the Windows
firewall (running Windows XP Pro) is enabled in security center and is
locked
so that it cannot be disabled. I don't know how to modify the Windows
firewall settings in case the firewall is blocking the remote desktop
connection.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
