« you should ring the Microsoft Helpdesk in your country
and ask them to assist you. They will »
Most readers won't dare to post what they have learnt to know
and think on this issue through a decade of personal experience.
They prefer to get (from other users) the little useful info
they can...
Now here's what I would suggest Maher to try:
Google "Remote Assistance Windows XP Professional"

How to use remote assistance in Windows XP (best of all)

If you believe that it is a bug within Windows, rather than
something that you may have installed inadvertently, then you
should ring the Microsoft Helpdesk in your country and ask them
to assist you. They will. I have done it myself. If the problem
is due to a Windows bug then the call is free. If it is due to
something you did then there will be a moderate fixed charge. In
other words, the solution is as close as your nearest telephone.

I have set up dozens of RDP connections but have never come
across anything like this, hence I can offer no further advice.
It could be due to some non-Windows program you have on your
machine, some exotic setting in your registry or some virus
interaction - who knows? If I was in your position then I would
set up a few other machines for RDP operation in order to get a
feel for this tool.

telnet and the result you mentionned. It's not the first time i
do this installation and settings. Users are allowed, ports are
opened

You have to enable Remote Desktop on the host and specify the
users who are authorised to use Remote Desktop.
As a very basic test you can also do the following. It's
supposed to clear the screen and give you a steady cursor in the
top left-hand corner:
- Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}
- Type this command:
telnet xxx 3389
where xxx is the NetBIOS name or the IP address of your
Remote Desktop host.

You need to provide more details, .e.g.
- Can you establish a Remote Desktop session for a short time?
- Are the two machines on the same internal network?
- What firewall software do you run?
- Have you adjusted your firewall settings for Remote Desktop
operation?
- What operating system does the host machine run?
