Yes I thought about that also, but then one thing remains unexplained. Why 
telneting on port 1720 gives a different response with Service Pack 2 
firewall blocking the 1720 port and with the port open? One might think, that 
if the firewall is blocking the access to port1720, changing something on the 
computers internal firewall will not affect anything, as the firewall is 
already blocking everything aiming the port. Hmm. Of course I will try your 
aproach, and report back. If you think of anything else I may try with XP (I 
dont know much XP), please let me know.
