Thanks]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19241678 Fri, 12 Oct 2007 09:23:48 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19241448 Kanebrake : I tried this out and on first blush it seemed flawless. It even takes care of the Avast loaded on a client machine (Onecare has long had this). But it caused my server to constantly "balance storage" and when opening the Setup dialogue it locked up the connector interface. It needs more work.
