I am also having an issue with port forwarding and don't understand what it is telling me.  I can direct connect from my laptop to the desktop.  These are in the same building using the same router.  But another colleage in another state, can not direct connect.  Am I assuming wrong, that if I can get through, they can?  Do i need to setup something for them to connect?  They are currently using the internet-ID connection, but it is slow for them.  help understanding would be appreciated.

You are awesome! THANKS!

man I looked all over to be able to do that! One more question.  If someone is on my computer and I need to disconnect them is there another way besides stopping the host?

I know that in settings I can make it so that when I am on someone's computer, I can black out the wallpaper, that way they know I am there.  But I want to be able to know when someone is on my computer? If I leave and comeback, unless they have mead the setting on their side to black out the screen, I would not know they are there.  I would just like to know when someone is on my computer . A small screen in the bottom of my window or something. cause as it stands, anyone can come in and I would not know. I know they have to have my password.  But, It is just nice to know someone came in.  Is there a way, that I am missing?

Hi Conrad, it hasn't happened again.  but will watch it.

I would like to ask another question to you.  If this needs to be a separate post.  I will repost.  We have, a couple of times be working over to a host computer and it would freeze.  We have had to go to that computer to do ctrl alt delete to kill the open programs?

THANKS! I had tried everything but stretch. That worked.  I have a wide monitor so it worked great!!!

Just downloaded the beta 6.9.  This is also my 1st install of the program. I did the install on a win7 and a winxp. Got the connections great.  My issue.  The winxp looks great when going from win7.  But when going from xp to win7, the screen is HUGE. I can't see all of the desktop of the win7.  I checked settings and it is in normal mode.  Tried adjusting the color, no help. Is there a setting I need to look at? Any help would be appreciated.
