Hi all..

The Java Pcanywhere client IS quite horrible is this respect ! When you
connect to it. it does a Class C scan of the network that you are on
(not the subnet you are on). So if I set it up on my machine and I
connected to it remotely.. the Java script from my machine (dsl
connection) would do a scan of the Entire 210.55.71.X range :-(

Thanks
Craig
