Received a Dell Vostros 1520 laptop with Windows 7 Pro 32bit and IE8 with
256 cipher. I am unable to connect to SBS2003 Remote Web Workplace. Can
happily connect via workstations with WinXP and IE7 and IE8 (with 128 bit
cipher). Searched the web and find some other mention of this problem but
no solutions. Have tried all the following multiple times in different
combinations without success... reset the defaults in IE8, added the web
site to Trusted Sites, disabled the Windows Firewall, disable security
restrictions in IE for activex and scripts, and put IE in compatibility
mode. I am able to reach the Server and log on. Next, when a target
computer is selected, I do receive the pop up asking for approval to install
the 'Microsoft Remote Web Workplace' activex control. When approved the
first time it is not asked for again. But the login stalls at this point
and the activex control does not appear in the 'manage add-ons' (not under
any of the 'show' categories). There are no error messages in the Server
logs or the laptop.
Any suggestion greatly appreciated.
