    Search Google from address bar

    (oops.. should have added: ofcourse HKLM could also work instead of HKCU - just grab whatever you're comfortable with) --- saybibi(); //john #include <stddiscl.h>

    Search Google from address bar

    Hi, Best guess is that the URLSearchHooks setting got clobbered (that's the hook that eg. TweakUI uses to define its search prefixes)... just reset [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks] "{CFBFAE00-17A6-11D0-99CB-00C04FD64497}"="" and it should work again...

    XP indexing services

    Hm... indexing service.. - do you by any chance have a lot or large (either will do) ZIP files? by default ZIPfiles are handled transparently as &quot;subdirs&quot;... and the indexing service has been known to create havoc in these circumstances... just as a test, try running: regsvr32 /u...

    MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger

    Actually - the idea is just that there *will* be (according to various posts by MVPs in MS newsgroups) a Windows Messenger (for XP) version 5 (w/ the new API), but so far that is not yet ready.. and since outlook express and possebly other programs use Windows Messenger instead of MSN Messenger...

    1st XP Machine connected to our network, eventually....

    Your 1st message is likely the problem... the machine is trying to download the latest group policies, but that fails, probably by timing out... even might throw in a retry or so, but I don't think so.. Ok - that was the easy part. Now the fun begins: Apparently there is a problem with the...

    Having trouble multibooting XP with RedHat

    ...partition changes from PM7/8 left.... probably running a full chkdsk might reveal something as well, as probably any evenlog messages.. (run eventvwr.msc).. As a side note, running Grub 0.90 without any problems, so at least it *could* work <g> --- saybibi(); //john #include <stddiscl.h>

    &quot;known dangerous&quot; file types

    Ok - let's see... you should be able to modify the EditFlags value in the registry: at HKCR\lnkfile there should be a 4 byte binary value EditFlags (sometimes changed into a dword - should not make a difference)... If you were to clear (let me think - this is out of my head) b0 (the least...

    &quot;known dangerous&quot; file types

    ...he didn't ask for a security audit/analyses or whatever... (and besides: blocking files based on extensions is a long shot - mostly overkill, *iff* you use just some plain common sense in handling email in general, or in this case attachments in particular...( (and: almost all decent AV...

    &quot;known dangerous&quot; file types

    Have a look at http://www.slovaktech.com/attachmentoptions.htm - that might be just what you need.. --- saybibi(); //john #include <stddiscl.h>

    Config.msi

    ...by some error).. It could be that you have a hidden file at %SystemDrive%\Config.MSI, or that your systemdrive is full? (with a large install, a *lot* of .rb (rollback) files are created, and finally deleted).. Or just try creating the dir manually, and let the installer manage it (although...

    Having trouble multibooting XP with RedHat

    Just allow writing to removable media (either through policy (looking at your situation, I'd say &quot;Win+R gpedit.msc&quot;) Local computer / Windows Settings / Security settings / Local policies / Security Options / Recovery console: allow floppy etc.... Or, assuming no policies: once at the...

    MS-DOS Startup Disk Problems

    You could always get a (recent) linux set up- the NTFS file system driver has a experimental write-enable setting.. I tried it a couple of times, and 2 times it worked... (and for the others times: a sector image restored through the net worked wonders).. But this is probably not something you...

    XP newbie questions...

    Caro-nz: Could you have a look at the spool location? (Start / Printers and Faxes, and then on an empty spot in the Printers and Faxes window, alternate (usually right) click, and select Server Properties... On the latest tab (advanced) you should see the spool dir mentioned... Does that dir...

    Cannot connect to LAN and ISP at the same time

    If I recall correctly, there's an option to set the default gateway to the remote (RAS) network.. Otherwise, you could add the necesseary route info manually (just lookup route add).. Although - a local admin works fine? how does that local admin authenticate to the network? If a domain user...

    Cannot connect to LAN and ISP at the same time

    Well, to even begin to work this out, we would need more information: what is network setup, how do you connect (LAN and ISP), and things like that.. So please, tell us your network configuration, and your ISP connection details, perhaps we can help you further if we got something to work...

    MS Knowledge Base

    Just jumping on the last issue, rundll32 being stuck... The problem is not rundll32 - that is just a (very convenient!) tool to run things from DLLs.. there are tons of useful routines burried in all sorts of DLLs, and rundll32 (or rundll in 16 bit windows variants) is just a wrapper that sets...

    developing SSI webpages on XP Home Edition

    The upgrade to PRO is your best option; but you don't have to run a local webserver to develop serverside includes - it can be done on another webserver... only there are some extra steps (both local and remote) involved to getting things to work smooth... and there will be a (noticeable or not)...

    Need Reg Hack for changing default wallpaper when new user logs in

    at HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop modify the REG_SZ value Wallpaper to your liking... nothing new with XP in this regard.... --- saybibi(); //john #include <stddiscl.h>

    TCP/IP Correct; IE Wont Use Lan Connection

    Hi, nitrous75, Well - this *is* strange - you didn't edit the results by any chance (probably not, but...) You don't have anthing bound to local addresses?? On the left side I would have expected at least some 192.168.0.3 entries, some 127.0.0.1 and some 0.0.0.0 entries... It looks like your...
