Q: 

Any work around for RDP session screen that turns black and locks up when minimized and shadowed?

It appears there is a bug in RDP that freezes the session if it is minimized and another user shadows it. Latest version 6.1 seems to fix it if you use XP, but no fix for Windows 2003 or older OS versions. Any patches, workarounds or suggestions would be appreciated.

+1  A: 

I have not experienced this bug myself. Perhaps a different client. I use mRemote.
