#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

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 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.

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.
