Hallo Daniel,

Yes, it looks like some antiviral software blocking tcp/ip connections
between processes. X2go can work correctly even with absolute
pnaroidalic configured windows firewall, because no ports, which should
be accessed from network are opened on client. But it steel need tcp/ip
connections between processes on system. For example, between nxproxy
and X-server. I can not explain why various antiviral software doing
this, but I can imagine, that there are although other software except
X2Go, that couldn't be running because of such antiviruses.

Question to list:
Is there a some antiviral software, which can be used with x2go client?

regards,
alex
