Vista - One PC cannot sync

One PC cannot sync

Hi! I have posted several questions in other threads but this is a new
problem. I have had similar problems as all others (not syncing, grayed out
icons, unexpected error, etc) so I created a new account and installed new FS
client on all PCs I had, remapped everything, etc. It works fine on all of
them but one (which is on the wired connection). That one will accept only
two libraries, and if I try to add a third one, everything stops working on
that PC only. It will not access the FS website from menus, it will not let
itself be accessed from FS website, although it appears logged in, or will
allow web access. That one runs WinXP with SP2, etc. I have another PC with
the wired connection on the same router, running WinVista, and it works fine.
I have uninstalled/reinstallled several times, nothing. Any ideas/suggetions?

RE: One PC cannot sync

Also, I uninstalled the new client and re-installed the old one. It seems to
be wroking. The main problem is that the "port status" tab in the settigns
with the new client does not recognize the UPNP gateway (which is the D-Link
router). Old client seems to recognize it. The other 5 computers on the SAME
router (some XP some Vista) have no problems.

Any ideas?

RE: One PC cannot sync

To update this further if anybody from Microsoft reads this. I now removed
the old client on BOTH login (identities) I had. I reinstalled the new client
on both. It seems to work for now, although on Port Status tab now it says
that TCP 6571 and TCP 8000 are blocked to accept conenctions, while TCP 443
is enabled. On the old client, both TCP 6571 and TCP 8000 were OK.

However, I still get frequent errors while creating and updating libraries
via web-site.
