Can you help me with this one.
I can start Links golf games with no problem on direct connection, or on the
Zone. However, when I try to start from Messneger, it hangs up the first
try. If I clear the hang-up (cont-alt-del), and try again, it works. It
doesn't matter if I start it, or the other player starts it. Same problem.
I'm using MSN Messenger 6.1, but had the same problem with 6.0. I also
tried my Windows Messenger with the same result.
I use Zone Alarm Pro for a firewall, and have tried turning it completely
off, but still the same.
All the other remote functions work OK. I can establish voice, do remote
assistance and all that.
I have a Celeron 900 meg processor, Win XP, with 640 Megs Ram, an NVidia FX
5200 128 Meg video card and a 60 gig HD. There should be lots of resources
there to run the program. None of my friends have the problem.
Have you got any ideas?
Thanks. Bill.
