This is a little offtopic, but you can configure the Win firewall to pass connections for the file sharing service (the "Server") (if I remember it correctly is 443) (see control panel, network conns, properties for local connection, advanced, settings and add port) Hope this helps, /Dorin. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
