SYMPTOMS
========
When a Windows NT workstation connects to a Windows NT server running McAfee's
Netshield for Windows NT, the following error occurs when you try to execute
applications off the server sharepoint:
Can't run 16-bit windows program
Access to the specified device, path, or file is denied.
After clicking OK on that error message, the Windows NT workstation appears to
freeze for up to 5 minutes. After that time, another error message appears:
Insufficient memory to run this application.
Please close one or more applications and try again.
Any attempt to run the same application located on the Windows NT server from the
Windows NT workstation will produce the second error above.
