The learning curve is pretty steep IMO. You should start small by changing an existing skin. Tutorials and specs on Chrome and CSS will help. There are also skining tutorials for Pheonix/Firebird/Fox.

#5 by sig101 - 3/6/2004 7:20:41 PM XP SP2 will not have an AV scanner. It has a monitor that will detect if you have an AV installed and running. Even though Symantec is listed on MS's antivirus partner list, SP2 RC1 will not detect Symantec AV Corporate Edition. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/notsure.gif" border=0 ALIGN="ab
#49 by latin4567 - 3/27/2004 12:56:50 PM Im a student at a privite school which my dad teaches at so I my family lives there for free because they have teacher housing That explains a lot. Me, I'm a Systems and Network Admin for going on 18 years now
Ok, so I was curious. I did some playing around. In order to run a program before logon (at the welcome screen) it must be a service. I got the xp-supplied onscreen keyboard to work for logging-in by turning it into a service. I do some programming and I've needed to make a service before. Sometimes I've actually created a service with a VB activeX control (NTService.ocx) and sometimes I've used a handy utility that turns virtually any exe, bat, vbs, etc. into a windows service. It's calle
Programs -> Accessories -> Accessibility -> On Screen Keyboard. All the system I have access to both at home and at work belong to an AD domain, and the keyboard closes when you log out. You never know, it may be functional using the logon chooser...but I have no way of testing that. There's also a ton of programs out there for the handicapped that would fit this bill. Try searching for "virtual keyboards" or "on-screen keyboards". Here's one: http://www.orin.com/access/softype/ Only $300 <i
I have used http://www.975register.com for years now and love it. I've sent many co-workers and friends here as well. Also, I've had http://www.mydomain.com referred to me as well and it looks pretty good. I wonder just how many people surf and have no clue as to what internic is or have not ever been on the site before? /me shudders... <im
Many moons ago, you pointed me to SyncBack. It saved my bottom this weekend big time when I lost a RAID-0 controller on my main desktop system at home. Luckily, I had just revamped my entire network at home and my Active Directory server had SyncBack backing up all the clients and the other server every day. Thanks again Jafo! Let this event also serve as a reminder to everyone else: Got backup? <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/joke.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absm
I've been lurking. I just haven't seen anything I wan't to comment on...
#157 by Admin Jafo - 2/17/2004 6:27:50 PM Actually he'd just forgotten to plug the thing in... I told you it was an electrical problem.
My money is on an electrical problem (reference my previous post). $5 betcha!
I've had this happen twice with two different systems over the years. In both cases, I believe it was a grounding problem. In both cases, The problem fixed itself when I took everything out (including the mobo) and booted it up on the bench (not in the case). I put everything back together and it still worked. BTW, in both of these intances, the systems were AT. Good luck.
I also remote desktop into a WB-skinned system all the time. No problems here. I can also vouch for TightVNC.
Sput: Do you run sendmail? If so, I'd be happy to share my config with you. Between DBL, my own blacklists (access.db), Subject line filters, and an antivirus scanner...I see maybe one spam every week and a half to two weeks on my servers. Your milage may vary. It all depends on what kind of flexibility your users need. For instance, one of my sendmail servers' blacklists blocks ALL traffic from both China and Brazil. SpamAssasin for sendmail (using milter) is another great tool
But, then what happens if a long lost friend finds your email address? There's this new thing...it's REALLY cool!... It's called a phone book. Yes, spammers suck. Blocking spam (at the server level) is pathetically easy. I don't see why more ISPs don't do
It's going to be strange reading threads that stay on toppic...but we'll still miss you! Seriously, good luck with the move. When my wife and I move again, it'll be into a "retirement home" or into the ground. Moving sucks that bad.
You can also use a proxy like NetProxy, WinProxy, or even Squid (Linux) and log everything. I believe Netproxy has filters and SquidGuard for Squid works great (I use this). Both of my kids are well aware that everything that they do on the computers in their rooms is monitored and logged. That in of itself, it a great deterrent.

Yes...no harm.
2560x1024 here. But this requesting is silly. Just crop and resize to your liking. We [with wacky resolutions] are in the far, far minority.
I didn't know that. Next time I'll RTFM (Subscription Info) before posting.
#45 by Mr DannyKII - 1/11/2004 3:59:41 PM may be, but (just as an example) im 16 and don't get as much money as an adult. in order to have full access i have to buy OD for 49,95$ and subscribe to winc for 20$ for two years????? i'll be forced to, because of the evaluation tim of wb (2 month)... great! on the other hand its just a great idea, and so i'll pay.
How much do you pay for your internet connection in 1 months? Mommy and Daddy probably pick up that tab.
