I have not followed this thread to any extent.  However, I have run into plenty 
of issues with networking XP Home AND Pro computers at work.  With this 
thought in mind, I suggest that everyone update their XP computers with the 
Service Pack 1 (SP1) offered by Microsoft on their web site.

Plenty of networking issues have been addressed with both versions which 
SHOULD allow WriteLog to function properly.  I will find out for myself next 
weekend when a friend and I get prelim. setup ready for the NAQP RTTY.
