    It is a hexadecimal modification to the terminal services DLL file which allows Remote Desktop to work in Vista Home Premium... People can connect to your VHP machine with the change to the DLL.

    Let me disclaim this message by saying, I don't support anything illegal, in case that falls into that category. I hope not, because it's just changing a couple of bits in a file.

    For me, though, being able to RDC into VHP was a dealbreaker - it's WHY I bought this HP with Vista. If I had to pay for Premium just to be able to RDC in, I would have waited until prices came down. It's a necessity I use DAILY, for many HOURS a day.
