Click the Security tab to view the current permissions For some reason there is no Security tab to be seen, should it be up at the top along with the General, Tools, Hardware etc.. tabs?

    Computer admin question

    Is it possible to be logged into Win XP as administrator but still have only limited ability to do things? I ask because I am unable to do several things that I used to be able to do.

    Powered off

    Sorry. It is WinXp home. The computer was shop bought 3 months ago and to power it off at the switch requires that I hold the button for 10 seconds. I have scanned for trojans as I know they can power off a PC, plus I did a spy/adware check just to be sure, but no luck.

    Powered off

    I wasn't sure where to post this so I hope this is ok. I usually leave the PC on over night because I normally have a download going. This morning the PC was off, but pressing the power button would not turn it back on. Oddly the keyboard light was still on, even though it is powered by the pc...

    Hidden windows folder

    My computer was recently infected with a trojan. I found and deleted the trojan but it has caused an odd side effect. My windows folder is now hidden. I know how to make them visible, and what to click to unhide them. My problem is that if i use the show hidden folders and files option, then...

    Running process

    There is no window. The process is an invisible app. It doesn't show up in the applications tab when you do ctrl + alt + delete, only in the processes tab, that is why I need direct access to the running process and the ability to shut it down. I know it can be done manually but I want to do it...

    Does anyone know of a way to kill a specific running process through delphi? I want to make an app that will check for a running process called "ftp server" and kill it if it is running. I have found code to list all the running processes but couldn't work out how to modify it to find a certain...

    Withing minutes of posting this I actually found out about include files on google. I have changed my pages from html to asp and placed the include statement in each page, to load the sidebar links from a txt file and then uploaded it. I gave it a go and it works. So in a matter of minutes my...
