No, I see no indication whatsoever that the problem is caused by a
corrupt client.
You could have a network problem or a TS problem.
Do you have another client to test the connection with?
Can you ping the server?
Can you telnet to port 3389 on the server?
Have you checked the status of the listener session in TS Manager?
Did you apply the patches to the client, or to the server?
What OS are you running on the server?
