If it's a problem with ssl you could try [b]telnet <hostname> 443 [/b]from the command line, if that fails you have ssl (port 443) blocked on the router...seems unlikely. What provider you got that cable internet from? Also you might want to check on firmware from D-Link on that device …

Isn't a web share different from standard UNC share? I think you have to setup a regular share if Tekmavin's suggestion doesn't resolve it.

Look in [b]start-->programs-->startup[/b] and see if your gstartup is listed there. This is a remnant of GAIN I think and you should be able to delete gstartup from [b]startup[/b] and the error …

Are you using a firewall? Networking (networked printers, shares)? Have you checked your services to see if any not needed have been started? Have you run [b]start-->Run[/b]-->[b]msconfig [/b]to see if there are any things you can avoid on the [b]startup [/b]tab?

VNC can do what you're asking...but the session is not encrypted and you'd have to do some footwork to get it working on port 80. It is possible to encrypt the session...I use SSH for this.

I'm curious what kind of hardware this is. When was SP6 installed? Has it been re-applied?

[QUOTE=harmeet] Any other options?[/QUOTE] I would map to the administrative share on the machine since I had rights to install the patch and look at the date modified for the folders labeled C:\Windows\$NtUninstall<insert patch # here>$ Otherwise you could just have the user check those folder attributes.

Sounds like you might have a HD setup utility in the floppy drive or something.

[QUOTE]Had a bad storm and no computer could connect to internet. [/QUOTE] Network cards/routers act extremely bizarre if a surge gets in the ethernet. My house was surged last summer and our router, also a 4 port Linksys, totally died. Windows was seeing my NIC but it was randomly giving …
