i found a funny thing about pcANYWHERE.
when we use pcANYWHERE remote control client to connect the 
host running pcANYWHERE, at first the statu bar appears 
"pcANYWHERE connecting..." ,then the login window will 
appear;
but if we press "Cancel" before the login window appears, 
the pcANYWHERE service will be crashed. We can't connect 
the host via pcANYWHERE client any longer.

if host running pcANYWHERE 9.0, We can restore the service 
by the following steps:
telnet host 5631
appers:
}
Please press <Enter>...  

then press Enter
We can connect pcANYWHERE now :)

if the host running pcANYWHERE 8.0, you must stop the 
pcANYWHERE service and restart it:
net stop awhost32
net start awhost32
