Hi,

where do you have the information, that Win2000 is similar to NT ?!?!?.

the port monitor are handled very differently in every windows
version.

Currently WHFC is only tested for Windows 95/98/NT. I don't expect that
WHFC runs correctly on Win 2000. I will test this, when a release
version
is out (and probably the first service pack is avaliable).
