I have already scanned the registry several times for the the port numbers I have entered but they are just not there. I would have expected that even if the GUI does not create the very same registry keys as desribed in the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/250367 it would still save the values somewhere in the registry but that is clearly not the case... So is there maybe an INI file for RPC if yes where on the filesystem is it?... What I don’t understand is where those settings which I make using the GUI are being saved to…

The threaded disease has moved on to other brands. My friend (No, really!) has bought a Techwood 81cm LCD from Carrefour supermarket in France which is made by some Turkish manufacturer. It has a 200x200 VESA setup at the back and guess what? 4mm and 5mm don't fit the Nylon inserts. The helpline engineer confirmed the problem by trying some himself and said he would happily post us some but he wasn't allowed to!! So! Do Samsung make these Tvs for the Turkish supplier. OR does the Turkish Factory make "Samsungs" (It is very Samsung like!) I feel we should be told! Cheers L Hi.

I couldn't easily solve the priority issue. You didn't, however, include how to send LOW priority mail.

I noticed it works ok in IE8 but does flag an error about parent and child elements. Not entirely sure what that's all about but I'll have a look. Thanks Lewis Hi Jeremy, thanks for the feedback.
