Please log in for more thread options thanks for the suggestion. I tried it but it was still not connecting. As
you can see in the next post, my next step was to disable Zone Alarm and
that solved the problem. Now, the trick is, to figure out how to make Zone
Alarm work AND still use the Axim. For the time being, I've disable ZA and
am using Microsoft's Firewall.
