THANKS FOR YOUR HELP AND SUGGESTIONS!
The AV and Firewall are turned off and the laptop is running Vista and was rebooted. I am using Mobile Device Center and it is connect and shows the connection. When I run the unlocker in manual it goes all the way and shows that it sees the ppc and sees the rom version number on my current ppc. I do have the latest unlocker and DL from yesterday for the authors website. I have unlocked many phones in the past and have unlocked two other TP2 prior to this one, this is my third TP2 and is new. I have a 100% battery charge.

I don't understand the question of "running as admin" don't know. I did also run in auto mode many times and come up with the same error. Unless someone can make a recommendation my next step is to head to another network. I did also use a second ppc as a wifi hotspot and connected the laptop to that using Energy's Wifi Router setup, which seemed to work perfect. THANKS for any help
