SYMPTOMS
If you connect to the Internet by using America Online version 7.0 and you then try to start a Remote Assistance session, the session may disconnect after the ticket is initially negotiated. The disconnect occurs before the desktop becomes visible to the expert in the session. The session may also seem to "freeze" on the computer that initiates the session before the expert is disconnected.
