Thanks for the info. I read through the article and that seems that the W2k8 was installed directly on the server. In my situation I have VMWare ESX 3.5 as a server OS and on it sits a number of VM host machines. Some are W2k8 but most are W2k3. Could this issue be still the case but on a...

Yes the VM Servers are Dell Poweredge 2950s.

W2k8 Datacenter running as a VMware host. This is a file server housing 20-30 file shares for aprox 4000 users. Server has 2X 3.1GZ processors and 2GB RAM allotted to it, 4GB network to the server shared with 7 other low hitting machines (stats on switch show >40MB for the group). Things will...

This may be caused by the local DNS Cache on the server. Try to run a ipconfig /flushdns. This will empty this cache and should fix your issue. Hope this helps.

You could lock the add/remove programs out by group policy. Just remeber that on a local group policy it locks out for all uses so if you wanted to uninstall a program it would require that you allow it in the policy again. Kinda messy but users don't tend to uninstall alot of things anyhow.

Thanks uolj, That is what I ended up doing, and it worked great..

From the windows Resouse kit there is a utility called DELPROF It works rather well, and you can put it in script for to do it on a remote machine or locally.

I guess random is not wuitr the right word. It's mainly so that the files don't overlap, I don't ever have to access the file again. It is suppose to make a program that writes a pattern of data to a harddrive much like a low-level format. This is just part of it that I was having problems...

I am trying to come up with a way to make a random file name to output in a program. I am tried some different things using the ifstream and all of them require that you have a static filename (at least what I can get. I am trying to get something like: f01.dat f02.dat ........ does anyone...

I do know that Windows XP puts the wireless card on top of the priority list. Maybe what Windows is doing is when it on the Dmain it is searching for a wireless connection. The way you fix this is go into the network connections via the control pannel and select advanced-> advanced settings...

Are you refeering to the noise that is made when there is a popup being blocked? If so go to tools-> popup blocker -> Popup blocker settings. In there uncheck the box that says "Play a sound when a popup is blocked". If that is not what you are in reference to you need to be a little bit more...

Floppy drives have different read heads in them which can cause them to work in one but not another. This is one of the reasons that they are very unreliable. If the read heads of the floppy drive do not come close to the read heads on the ither drive it will cause them not to read each other...

The one that you cannot see it on might have simple file sharing turned on. To turn this feature off go to Tools-> folder options, on the View tab scroll to the bottom to find 'use simple file sharing (recomended)'. Uncheck the box and this should fix the problem. If you find that it is...

Here is a link to a utility built into Windows XP. I have used it before and it works pretty good. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;298593&sd=tech Here is also a link to use another utility from windows that allows you to configure your TCP/IP settings from the command...

Sounds to me like there is some type of spyware and or virus that is loaded on the machine. Have you tried to run a spyware removal utility? Also are your antivirus defintions up to date?

Here is a website that I have used to create a bootable cd that includes a copy of Mcafee virus scan. It works failry well, and best of all I believe that it is free. http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/#download

Well I think one thing is that you need to figure out how it got on that many computers. Since it is said in the symantec article that it is spread by file shares that you need to also secure any shares that you have on the machines. Also it would be a good idea to have a strong admin password...

umm you can run an "iexplore.exe -k". This opens only the web page. That is what I understand from your post. You can just put that in the run box and you have it. Hope this is what you are looking for.

The way that I got around it was to make a shortcut to the batch file and in the shortcut properties you can make it startup minimized. If you find a way to hide it I would like to know please.

I use a program called multires which you can download it here . You can configure this to run using batch file and I find that is works very well.
