Hi you all over here just poping over to give some insight on a on going problem with computers and using P2P programs and computer crashes and errors.

If you have windows Xp Please a Must do but it's up to you. Turn off the remote desktop in windows while using P2P and sharing. Hackers can use this.

You can turn it off by right clicking on My Computer on the desktop and goto to the bottom and click properties, now click on the tab called Remote and on bottom just uncheck Remote desktop

This is not good to have on and should only be turned on only when troobleshooting your computer with teck support on the phone or online only. This is not good to have on.

Also now If any people with window 98 up 98Se and Windows ME even up and your having problems while running P2P software like a slow computer/ freezing up on you and just seems to hang there not doing nothing to errors messages and even VxD errors you will find this helpful, very helpful.

I posted a program at the end of the post to which I will post that link under this. You can get a free Ram/memory program to help keep your Ram recycled without rebooting because your ram runs out and it goes to the virtual memory to run programs which causes alot of problem with resources that will cause computer crashes and errors.

Sorry you can uncheck the Remote Assistance the same place. Remote desktop you don't have to. My Bad.

OK If your an XP user and you don't see this, then you don't have XP Professional, I think its only in there. And also I would also uncheck the remote decktop if you do have XP Pro. Here is alittle bit on it and while using a P2P program I wouldn't have both checked. Take care you all.

Remote Desktop overviewWith Remote Desktop on Windows XP Professional, you can have access to a Windows session that is running on your computer when you are at another computer. This means, for example, that you can connect to your work computer from home and have access to all of your applications, files, and network resources as though you were in front of your computer at work. You can leave programs running at work and when you get home, you can see your desktop at work displayed on your home computer, with the same programs running.

When you connect to your computer at work, Remote Desktop automatically locks that computer so no one else can access your applications and files while you are gone. When you come back to your computer at work, you can unlock it by typing CTRL+ALT+DEL.

Remote Desktop also allows more than one user to have active sessions on a single computer. This means that multiple users can leave their applications running and preserve the state of their Windows session even while others are logged on.

With Fast User Switching, you can easily switch from one user to another on the same computer. For example, suppose you are working at home and have logged on to the computer at your office to update an expense report. While you are working, a family member needs to use your home computer to check for an important email message. You can disconnect Remote Desktop, allow the other user to log on and check mail, and then reconnect to the computer at your office, where you see the expense report exactly as you left it. Fast User Switching works on standalone computers and computers that are members of workgroups.

Remote Desktop enables a variety of scenarios, including:

Working at home - Access work in progress on your office computer from home, including full access to all local and remote devices.
Collaborating - Bring your desktop to a colleague's office to debug some code, update a Microsoft PowerPoint slide presentation, or proofread a document.
Sharing a console - Allow multiple users to maintain separate program and configuration sessions on a single computer, such as at a teller station or a sales desk.
To use Remote Desktop, you need the following:

A computer running Windows XP Professional ("remote" computer) with a connection to a Local Area Network or the Internet.
A second computer ("home" computer) with access to the Local Area Network via network connection, modem, or Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection. This computer must have Remote Desktop Connection, formerly called the Terminal Services client, installed.
Appropriate user accounts and permissions.
