Various network : analysis packages suggest that the PC never even kicks out a single packet : when the various Viewpoint buttons are prodded. We had a similar puzzling problem with getting I-Net/PC to run successfully on our PCs. We were using other Windows applications and other networking software, but the symptoms were exactly the same. After a few weeks, our support people came up with the solution: Don't use hostnames with capital letters in them! Our hostnames are all capital letters (like GANS2X), so I simply added synonyms with lowercase letters in the hosts file and used these synonyms with I-Net. All was well! Please let me know if that solves your problem.
