Good evening all.
I have searched for an answer to this and I can't seem to find anyone with the same problem as this.
I have a configuration file which on my Windows 7 machine will start the connection process to my server, however the same file with the same password on a Windows 8 machine always comes up with the following error

Does anyone have any suggestions. I think it is a client issue but I dont know where to start looking.
Thanks in advance
Jonathan
