Massage is often overlooked as an option for many types of ailments like this. Many back, headache, and repeditive motion injuries like carpal tunnel can be cured with a few visits to a well trained massage therapist. If you work in front of a computer all day, you will have problems that massage can make a real difference with.
I can't say I was any type of beliver in this until I felt and saw the work done myself. While there is a new-agie mystique to some of it, massage has a grounded scientific basis for why it works to fix things like this. Its worth a shot, and I think in the right hands you'll be pain free very soon.
Its real picky about it. I can get text to copy and paste, but I can't copy a file and paste it to the remote desktop. One of the MS client options is to mount a local disk on the remote computer. This works for me if I'm on the same LAN, it doesn't work if I'm at home or at another location. I usually end up emailing the file to myself or something of that nature.
You'll need a version of XP Pro. XP home has this striped out. Turn on Remote Desktop Sharing. I have an OSX laptop and several linux boxes around, and use the MS remote desktop client to access the windows boxes. rdesktop on the linux machines does the trick.
We use VNC to manage our NT4 servers, and its not near as nice as the build in stuff through XP (which is licensed from Citrix I think?) Over a network connetion, its like sitting in front of the machine (very eery looking at an XP desktop on my powerbook when you run the RDP client at full screen.)
Just tried on my mac and I get the message "Sorry, Google Personalized does not currently support Safari."
Haven't tried in Firefox yet, has anyone else?

This ability to change the name is something that you can do very easily in Group Policies in IE/Windows. ALot of schools around our local area (my org does tech support and training for the local school systems in GA) have MS IE brought to you by xxxx County Public Schools. This is the type of little things that will allow Firebird to be integrated into a more managed corporate environment. One of the big selling points of a MS solution is that you can control to the Nth degree user's interfaces, the bookmarks that they have, the buttons they have access to, from a remote location. Use a non-MS browser, you lose that functionality, save for some creative scripting, locking of files, etc.
I know most see the ultimate goal of a linux desktop with a mozilla/firebird/take your pick now/ web solution. But for the meantime, making this browser friendly to a MS managed solution would go a long way to making open-source a solution for a large instiution. If I were in charge of such a place, I would probrobly mandate its use just because of the time saved cleaning up crap that users get using IE. But convicing others takes stuff like that.

I work at an Educational Tech Training Center and we recently had a group of 4th, 5th and 6th graders in for a Dreamweaver/Fireworks workshop.
There is a new program here in Georgia called Promote that has groups of kids as young as 3rd grade creating instructional webpages. I've also seen Adobe GoLive and Frontpage used by these kids to do some amazing things.
You would be amazed at what some of these youngins are capable of.
