That's what I'm thinking too.  The problem is finding what's causing it.

I tried that, didn't make any difference :-(

I also tried removing ZoneAlarm and AVG, again, no difference.

Let me give more detail as to what I've done.

All I did with CVSNT was create a repository with the control panel.  I 
didn't import anything, it is a completely empty repository.  I then login 
like so:

cvs -d:sspi:damien at damiens:\mine login

("damiens" is localhost, it works the same if I just have "localhost") which 
works fine, or at least no error is given, and then attempt to checkout the 
CVSROOT module like so:

cvs -d:sspi:damien at damiens:\mine co CVSROOT

"netstat -a -o" includes the following:

   Proto  Local Address          Foreign Address        State           PID
   TCP    Damiens:2401           Damiens:0              LISTENING       272
   TCP    Damiens:2402           Damiens:0              LISTENING       252

PID 252 is CVSLOCK.EXE while 272 is cvsservice.exe.

When I telnet to port 2402 I get this:

CVSLock 1.2 Ready

If I type something and hit enter I get this:

001 FAIL Unknown command 'dfdf'

Any other suggestions on what to try?
