Some users of ActiveSync® 4.0 have reported challenges when
using the USB connection of their personal computer to connect
to a device with Windows Mobile 5.0. In many cases, these
challenges are likely caused by interoperability with desktop
firewall applications or applications that manage network traffic.
These applications appear to conflict with the TCP traffic between
a device and the PC.
An update for ActiveSync is scheduled to be available in late
November, but customers may also resolve the issue manually
immediately by visiting :
www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync4.
This issue only affects people with new devices just coming to
market and running Windows Mobile 5.0 software, and only
when synchronizing directly to a PC when using a USB connection
(wireless synchronization via Bluetooth, infra-red or directly to a
server or other services are not affected).
