Filemaker 8 or 9 can't see remote hosts on windows 7

Two of the files that are installed by default by Filemaker 8 or 9 are not compatible with Windows 7.  This prevents you from browsing remote hosts.  Although local files still open.  The solution is to download the Filemaker 11 (or newer) trial, install it and in the main programs directory copy out the server.pem and root.pem files.  Overwrite these two files in your older installation of Filemaker.

Restart Filemaker and you'll have access to your remote hosts again!
