        ARGH! Blardy firewalls. Seems to be a firewall issue then I guess. Thing is, 
even when I take all firewalls down, it still won't work!

        Cheers for that Zach - that at least tells me it's not VNC acting up.

        I really appreciate your help, and all the help I have received from all the 
VNC users - I am truely blown away by the level of help and assistance offered freely.

        You're all a great bunch of people! Sincerest thanks.

        Cheers.
