I have had the same kind of problems. I was trying to use the remote desktop thing but I really dont know that much about it so I gave up. It also seems to be a security hazard if you do have it on. What would stop some 14 year old haxor in the philipines from getting my ****?

Remote desktop is a security concern, but not much more of one than having a telnet server running.
 
About ISS, hard to tell, ,ay be some kind of bug in XP that keeps it from detecting that you're logged in as an admin.
