Ah okay, I see... Windows sux (tm), as usual... ;-)

This will prevent my remote friend from actually seeing me control his
desktop, so although I will hopefully be able to fix his e-mail client,
he won't be able to watch me doing it, so he won't learn anything...

Thanks Windows...

Well anyway, looks like I am fully sorted and clued both on Windows/RDP,
and Linux/VNC, and ready to connect to his machine, so thanks everyone
who contributed to this thread, I much appreciated the quick and
efficient help ! :o)

Regards,
