SYMPTOMS
When you share an instance of Windows Explorer, My Computer, Briefcase, Control Panel, or any other Windows Explorer-based program with Microsoft NetMeeting, all Windows Explorer-based programs that are currently running are also automatically shared. In addition, after you share any Windows Explorer-based program with NetMeeting, any other programs that you start are also automatically shared.



RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:
 * If a program that you do not want to share is automatically shared, manually stop sharing it. To do so, point to Share Application on the Tools menu of NetMeeting, and then click the program that you want to stop sharing.
 * Do not share Windows Explorer-based programs in NetMeeting, or only share them after you have shared all other programs that you want to share during the online meeting.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft NetMeeting.
