    Cannot Initialize Error in Corel Office2002/WP10

    Please help. I had been using WP10 out of the Corel Office 2002 Suite (OEM) for months now with no noted problems. However, due to another problem on my system (Stand-alone W2K)I began uninstalling any programs that were running prior to a shutdown that generated the following Application Error...

    W2K Won't shut down.

    Uh, I wish we could edit posts here. Obviously the second URL was the repeat of the first one. Here's the correct one for Power Strip: http://www.entechtaiwan.com/ps.htm (Sorry about that; I was trying to watch the football game and type at the same time.) :-) balls!

    W2K Won't shut down.

    Hey, delphiman. I'm not sure what option you're referring to with ticking "Startup and Recovery/Automatic Reboot", but I know I got sick and tired of having my desktop icons rearranged with safe mode booting, and changing resolutions, etc. There are two programs that I've used that...

    W2K Won't shut down.

    I'm not sure I understand the question here but I know that MS update Q329170 has totally hosed W2K shutdowns, slowing it either to a totaly 1-3 minute crawl or else making the system incapable of shutting down altogether. Removing or avoiding that update fixes the shutdown problem 100%. Check...

    Critical Updates recommended???

    You might find that MS update Q329170 is the culprit; it was on my system; totally hosed it; once the update was deleted the system runs great; I had originally installed XP, hated it, yanked that hog, purchased W2K, and have no regrets; will never re-install XP. Check out this thread at DSLR...

    Unable to Logoff Current User

    I think you're gonna REALLY thank me for this one. (Just like I REALLY thanked the guy who pointed me in the right direction. Hopefully, at least, this will solve the problem for you and a lot of other folks.) Judging by the timing of your post, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that prior to...

    Upgrade from 5.0 > 5.5 knocked out '3rd Party Browser' option??

    Here is a quote from a response to a similar post of mine at Wilders.org forum: You are correct - "Enable 3rd Party Browsers" was not a setting included in any IE browser prior to IE6. Apparently, the issue you're referring to in re: to AdShield is that you must enable that option...

    Upgrade from 5.0 > 5.5 knocked out '3rd Party Browser' option??

    Thanks much, skimmers. I will check that key out as soon as I get to my home computer (am at work now). I think I might be confused a bit in terms of WHERE the ball got dropped as far as that particular option is concerned. My work laptop has 5.5, and that option is not there either. And the...

    Upgrade from 5.0 > 5.5 knocked out '3rd Party Browser' option??

    Just when I thought I'd seen it all. I upgraded from IE 5.0 to 5.5. (I'm trying to avoid 6.0 because I am convinced 6.0 is the cause of the 'disappearing gif' problem that's addressed in another thread. And so far, I have not noticed that particular problem in either 5.0 or 5.5 But what I did...

    Failure Sinking Events IWebBrowser2

    Well, this SHOULD have been a good thread for me. I even knew the answer. And just to sort of pat myself on the back, I went to my IE 5.5 Internet Options/Advanced tab, where the FREAKIN OPTION was yesterday when I had 5.0 loaded, and LO and BEHOLD. IT'S GONE! Does anybody know WTF is up with...
