Cannot access virtual machine console problem

Cannot access virtual machine console. The request timed out.

The attempt to acquire a valid session ticket for "machine name" took longer than expected. If this problem persists, contact your system administrator.


I get this message every time I try to open a console connection using either Firefox 3.6 or IE8. This USED to work fine on this computer in both browsers, no idea why it doesn't now.

Using VMware, was 2.0.0-122956 but I updated to 2.0.2-203138 with no change in the problem.

Googling revealed problems with mozilla plugins or flashblock. I dumped my mozilla folder and brought FF back to default, reloaded VMware console plugin and it still won't connect.

Tried turning off my firewall.

Have three different VM's different client OS's even and I can't get in any of them.

Host is Win7 home premium x64.


Help??
 
Well I got it working in IE8 by just dumping everything in the browsing history section. Still won't work in FF 3.6 but I guess it isn't supposed to as I see it posted elsewhere it doesn't work with 3.6. Least I can get to the machines again.
