remote desktop "Start a Program" Help !!!

[Roemeister]

I've been enjoying using remote desktop until I added a
program to start-up when the remote connection is made.
The program initiates with the opening of the remote
session, but when I close the program, there goes the
session, too. It seems that this program IS the session,
as nothing "appears" to be behind it. I tried uninstalling
the program, but now I get an error msg from remote
desktop saying it cannot complete the connection as the
initiating program cannot be found!

Does anybody have a suggestion? ( other than VNC...)

thanks - Roemeister

I do not have any experience with this particular problem. However, the way I
understand the Help and Support Center Topic titled "To specify a program to start
upon connection: When the connection is made, only the specified program runs on the
remote computer." Furthermore, according to the topic titled "To create a new
connection: You can change your connection settings, (such as screen size, automatic
logon information, and performance options), by clicking Options before you connect."

For expert help I suggest that you post your question to the following Microsoft
