Here's a problem I hope one of you Mac Wizzes can help me with. After checking my email with Outlook Express, I choose "disconect" on the remote access window and it disconects no problem. It showes the status as idle. The next time I try to connect by hitting "connect" in the remote access window, it and says "please wait" but nothing happens. I can hit it several times but nothing happens. I've tryed closing remote access & reopening but no change. Sometimes when I hit "connect" the system will freeze & I have to reboot from the power button. Restarting from the menu b/4 it freezes will fix the problem, but restarting is not a permanet solution. This problem is sporadic and ongoing. Any suggestions?
System specs: G-4/400, Ram 1.3Gb, OS 9.02, Rom ver. 3.5, the amount of ram allocated to outlook express and remote access is what ever the system default is.
Thanks for the help images/icons/smile.gif

"Please Wait"?
I don't recall ever seeing that.
Try throwing out (or moving them out of the preference folder) the Remote access preferences. You will have to re-enter some information but it could alleviate the problem.
