I am about to start using RD and am a little concerned about this thread and the fact that nobody has mentioned that the problem has been taken up with FS. Can anyone shed any light on the status of the issue?

If you have the authorization for remote access you can use it to log into a remote computer and use that computer as if you are sitting in front of it. great for logging into a work computer from home on days you can't get in or are home for some other reason. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Thomas Sagar Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2008 4:59 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: alt key sticking with remote desktop Just out of curiosity... what kind of remote connectivity are you guys using?

I use full screen mode when using RD and generally can clear the "Stuck" ALT key by toggling back and forth between full screen mode using the CTRL-ALT-Pause key combination.
