 Hi Rich,
 I am guessing that your code uses sockets. If that's case, then
 I would guess that it is your firewall settings on W7 that are
 causing the headache. Try disabling all firewalls and running
 your old code.

 Also, since Xmaxima communicates to Maxima over a socket, you
 can try running it to help isolate the problem.
