OK, I connect to a single server system over the Internet.  The server 
is a Win95 machine.  I use NT4.  Was having problems where the session 
would invariably freeze after a few minutes, oftentimes apparently 
locking up the server as well.  Did some tinkering with screen savers 
and video settings on the server and now it no longer locks up, but the 
sessions invariably freeze at my end after just a few minutes or 
sometimes only a few seconds.  The connection is sometimes slow as dogs 
and I've seen several instances where it's taken many seconds for the 
screen to update, but there's been other instances where I've waited 
minutes for the screen to update without it ever doing so.  In these 
circumstances I close the connection and open a new one.  Often times 
the action I was trying to accomplish when the 'freeze' occurred has 
happened.  For example, the session freezes and the mouse pointer does 
not move though I am moving the mouse.  I then right click on the 
desktop to bring up the desktop context menu.  I wait a minute of more 
and nothing happens.  I close the connection and open a new one, and see 
that the desktop context menu is open.

Is this just a really slow screen refresh issue, or is the session 
really hanging up at my end?  Either way, is there anything I can do to 
make it work more smoothly?
