Remote Panel not working in Windows 7 Starter

[Priyadarsini]

Hi all,

We have an application that can be controlled via remote panel. This is working fine in Windows XP PC. But when I try to access the same by opening Internet Explorer in a PC running Windows 7 Starter OS, I only get the 'Downloading 0.00% of 0 bytes'. I have disabled the Windows Firewall and there is no antivirus software also. What could be the reason for this? How could I solve this?

Thanks in advance,

Could you tell me what LabVIEW version you are using?

I am using LabVIEW 8.6.

The system which had the problem was a netbook that came with Windows 7 Starter. We found out recently that there was some parental controls utility in the netbook that prevented the LabVIEW Remote Panel access. We were not aware of its presence & it had not shown any indication that it had blocked Remote Panel communication. We uninstalled this utility & the Remote Panel started working as intended. Thanks again for your help.
