"Its something from Microsoft to download." and "You obviously know best. If it's from Microsoft, then you might try there." I see nothing there to quantify a "smart remark". You keep insisting it's available for 98 and it's from Microsoft, so why ~don't~ you search there?

Did you look at Microsoft? Have you tried Google? Or do I have to spell it out for you? http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/tools/rdclientdl.mspx I thought you said that you wanted to learn how to do things for yourself.

Chris, really, you need to stop behaving like such a defensive & boorish child here @Computing.Net You're always posting ill conceived questions, and , when invariably you don't receive the answer you want to hear, you start whining and complaining. Here's a good example "Im not going to learn anyhting by that" & "im not dumb" That remains to be seen - the link provided originally states: "This is similar to the "Remote Desktop", only available in Windows XP Professional, but while "Remote Desktop" allows to connect to a host-computer without any user action on the host system, Remote Assistance requires a user to be present to accept an incoming connection." The Remote Desktop for 98 package can be found here (courtesy of Rimfire) Why don't they make computers that will do what we think we want them to do?

Thanks for your help and Merry CHRIST-mas. Please don't be offended by my post like that. L.O.L im always kidding. Thats just me live with it :) I mean no harm. Its just a way of getting whati want. And it worked now didn't it? Computer 1 Server Intel P4 1.8 Ghz 256 Mb Ram Windows XP Pro 40 Gig 52X CDRW Floppy ========================= Computer 2 Bedroom Compaq Deskpro 2000 147 Mb Ram

Yeah, well, I'm not really prepared to live with it - professional help would be my recommendation. Passive-aggressive posturing. Why don't they make computers that will do what we think we want them to do?

From: Langa Letter: XP Professional's "Remote Control" Option Feb. 24, 2003" Quote (excerpt) It's one of XP Pro's hidden gems: A simple way to control your PC from afar. It lets you do everything from basic file and data access up to fully taking over the keyboard and mouse of a distant PC, just as if you were sitting in front of it. What's more, XP extends this remote-control ability to any and all versions of Windows back to Win95, including Windows CE palm-top systems. End of excepted quote Of course this is with XP Pro and not the Home edition. Bryan

Maybe you are thinking of HyperTerminal or Telnet where you can remotely log in. I don't believe you sit around and figure it out. Probably best you do some research first. Win95 Telnet discussion Microsoft link Microsoft VPN for 98

Hi Whoa I turn my back at #6 and what! Good answers eventually. Happy Holidays

"Its just a way of getting whati want. And it worked now didn't it?" I hope your "whati want" is nothing...you're very close to getting just that. Skip

No kidding. In the referenced post (from 2 years ago!), SciGuy observed: "I seem to recall reading on this forum recently, a post by ChristopherTGarrett about people being banned from posting here. Justin replied to the post, saying that ChristopherTGarrett had been banned and had somehow gotten past the system. From the aggressive nature of his posts, I'd say his time is nigh." To which our plucky Mr. Garrett replied: "Please forget about my attitude.Ive just have had a bad wek.And as far as me being banned.Justin unbanned me before.I didn't evem know i was banned before i have a floating ip number." Clearly Justin relented far too soon. Some folks never seem to learn. Why don't they make computers that will do what we think we want them to do?

I don't think ive done anyhting to be banned. That was two years ago its all behind. Computer 1 Server Intel P4 1.8 Ghz 256 Mb Ram Windows XP Pro 40 Gig 52X CDRW Floppy ========================= Computer 2 Bedroom Compaq Deskpro 2000 147 Mb Ram

Perhaps you haven't. But, you might consider that in the last two days that you've identified a 2" long brown slot on a motherboard as "AGP" and told us all that IE6 will not work on Win9x. You might just want to unplug your keyboard for awhile and allow your brain to catch up. Skip

I just skip by his posts now. His history demonstrates it's not worth the time. I'm still waiting for my IE6 to crash my 98SE. Been a couple of years now so it ~has~ to happen soon. I saw that yesterday? and was going to add to the post, but then I regained my senses.

jboy, That tightVNC looks like a gem. Any cautions or advice on VNC? TIA M2

Dan Penny, You didn't skip by this post did you? And the time you posted about ie6 was not yesterday.Its yesterday now but wasn't then. Maybe its your brain thats behind huh?

M2Go - no, I can't say that I've ever tried it, but it certainly does look worthwhile. One of the many benefits from participating @Computing.Net is discovering new links while trawling the web for answers - so, despite the fact that trying to help the OP is by and large a complete waste of time, the process itself isn't. Hey Dan Penny. Oh yeah, we get all sorts of aberrant types here - some asking questions, some 'answering' them (or both, as in this case). About the only thing that can be gained by reading his many mangled messages is a glimpse into the workings of a troubled mind. I believe the psychological term is 'meathead' Kind of sad really - it's the same thing over and over - the sap snots off at everyone, spouts a load of BS and when finally presented with accurate information offers up a fake apology, as in this recent post: "What do i need help with? And i agree sometimes i have a attitude. Sometimes thats what it takes to get what i want done." The fact that folks continue to try and help this deluded miscreant despite his manipulative and craven behaviour is a testament to the good nature of the majority of contributers here. Clearly he's abusing that good nature - and brazenly so. Would to God that it were up to me to ban this sorry sack of.... sand - it'd happen in a heartbeat. Why don't they make computers that will do what we think we want them to do?

I stopped by this post to see how many feathers you were ruffling. Indeed, I couldn't resist asking you to go elsewhere. The time of the postings depends upon what geographical location you are in. If I ~did~ have it wrong it shows how much I care about it. Yeah, my brain is definitely behind yours, as yours is *way* out there. I guess I can't compete with a guru such as yourself. (Sigh)

jboy, Yea the process is alive and well. If not, we'd be setting a new record for posts with nothing accomplished; 25 and counting. The other jewel today was as I was looking for info about PCMCIA in DOS, somebody posted a link to DOS PCMCIA drivers. Season's grettings to all. M2

Seasons geetings M2, Maybe you missed it, I gave it what it wanted in response 10. All it took was a couple of seconds in google. The OP seems to have such a disorganised mind that he is incapable of trying such well publicised methods.

"The OP seems to have such a disorganised mind that he is incapable of trying such well publicised methods." Heh. Seasons Greetings All. (Yes, you too CTG) ;>)

Im going to try and be nicer this comeing year ok? I really don't mean anyhting by the remarks i make. And i misunderstood about the 2" brown slot i have a old celeron 433 slot 1 with a AGP and its a brown slot. I just got confused on that. Oh and about the XP sp2 post. I still don't use XP sp2 not just because of the bootscreen. I don't like the pop up feature in XP Sp2. If i need to go to Gateway site and get tech support thru there online chat sp2 pop up blocker goese crazy Also the updates on McAfee sometimes want work. And there are other reasons i don't use Sp 2. One day it kelp telling me i had no Antivirus program and i do. Now any more questions? Merry Christmas to you all Dan Penny also.

In this thread that honour goes to you, the Original Poster. Your sorry excuses don't really count for much - you have a hundred other posts little different than the two dredged up here - let's see if you can actually pull off some decent behaviour. It'll be quite refreshing. People may forgive, they seldom forget. Why don't they make computers that will do what we think we want them to do?
