Being new I just installed the client (as a service) in WinXP Pro and from what I can see it hasn't run at all since I installed it last night. I set up a new team and the preferences looked OK to me. At first it kept telling me I didn't have enough disk space yet when I look in my preferences it was set to 100Gbytes (what's normal here for a team profile? I have to have it set so the other members don't have problems) This morning I see new messages (see pic) and still no action????? Please help me get the team going here. Thanks.
