It could be a firewall problem.

On the same PC, run IE, and enter the address:  localhost:[port]  where port is the number you use.  Does that work?  If not, remoteserver is not running.

First - are you using Remote Server *or* Library Server? They do two different things.

The above messages look like Library Server to me, and they are how Library Server responds when being accessed by a normal web browser (the favicon part).
