vSphere client does not connect to the *other* linked vCenter

ESXi 5.0.0 (1489271 across the board), vCenter 5.0.0 (913577)

C# Client 1300600

2 vCenters in linked mode (same version)

Nothing has changed (that I know of)

The other day, logging in as usual to vCenter #1, I got the "1 vCenter Server not connected"  ... huh ..?

Verified connectivity to other vCenter server (#2)

So I log out, and connect to #2, and it links back to #1 and all is fine.

Today, again connect to #1 and get warning.  This time, when I connect to #2, I get the same warning and it doesn't connect.

Web client (which I seldom use) shows same warning on login, but I do show the other site in the navigation pane.

The other VM admin is not having this problem.

I log into another machine (either vCenter server, or terminal server), and it connects and works fine.

I log into my workstation as a different account and it Does Not link up. ... so it's my local machine install

On occasion, throughout my trials and tribulations, it doesn't even give the warning that 1 vCenter is not connected.

I've un-installed, re-installed, registry hacked, deleted files from profile, app data, program files, program data, etc all to no avail ...

I found the KB about clearing the SSL - no go (I deleted the whole VMware key entry.)

Any ideas?

Thanks
