- Windows XP Security >> Browser Settings ChangeI have been having a problem for some time now with my
homepage being reset to (what looks like) a microsoft
site. The text in the search bar always refers to a file
called gjyhy.dll. I have changed all my settings in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE AND HKEY_CURRENT_USER directories to
remove references to this file, but they just keep
reappearing. I presume there must be a file somewhere that
is causing this, but neither my McAffe virus scan nor a
search using the McAffe privacy service have found
anything suspicious. It's driving me crazy! Does anyone
know how I can find out what's causing this.
Thanks

- Windows XP Security >> Logoff/Shutdown QuestionI am having a problem on Windows 2000 and XP Pro when a user selects Restart
the computer will just log the user off. Once logged off the can press
CTRL-ALT-DEL and then select shutdown then restart and it will work. I'm sure
its a registry setting somewhere but can't find it. I talked to people in the
IT dept with me and no one knows of a change we did that would cause this.

- Windows XP >> Sysyem Restore: The REAL Reason it REPEATEDLY Cannot RestoreNumerous users have complained here about System Restore (SR) repeated
failing with the message:-
"Restoration Incomplete. Your computer cannot be restored to (whatever
point was selected). No changes have been made."
Various reasons for this have been offered here:-
1) Corrupt SR Point - most popular
2) Full SR disk space
3) SR Service not running
4) Improper or interrupted system shut-down - only reason offered by M/Soft KB
5) Norton AV 2006 Auto-protect is on
and a few cures have been proposed:-
1) Turn SR off then on (losing all but 1 SR Point) - most popular
2) Run in Safe Mode
3) Reinstall SR
While most of these reasons would explain the occasional failure of SR, they
do not address the REPEATED FAILURE of SR in this way.
The most likely reason for a repeated failure is that there is another
(non-system) disk drive that contains remnants of a SR points' storage area
(\System Volume Information) including repeats of some of SR controlling
files.
The way to fix this situation is to:-
1) Turn OFF SR on the other non-system drive ONLY
2) Do any or the required SR - this should succeed
3) Turn ON SR on the other non-system drive
4) All subsequent SRs should now succeed
I had been getting this SR failure EVERY time I tried it in the past 9 to 12
months. Altho I did not realise it at the time, I had installed a spare
system disk drive from an old XP Pro PC as a 2nd drive (E:) on my current XP
Home PC during that period. It wasn't until I tried turning off SR on E:
alone and SR started to work reliably again, that I cottoned on to the root
cause :-)

- Windows XP Support >> "1. The InstallScript engine on this machine is older..."Dear microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support:
I am having problems installing a program and have exhausted the
technical help for the program, have gone through every page of the
InstallShield help site and applied every applicable fix. Nothing has
worked, I still get the: "1. The InstallScript engine on this machine
is older than the version required to run this setup." I have the
appropriate InstallShield version installed.
My computer is running Windows XP Home Edition, Version 2002, SP 2 on a
Compaq Presario S3000V.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, this has been inordinately
frustrating. Thanks, Mona

- Windows XP >> Searching in Windows XPI want to change the way I search. The help section says
"To change the appearance of Search Companion
Click Start, and then click Search.
Click Change preferences.
Click Change files and folders search behavior.
Click Standard to be able to search for a variety of
things, such as files, folders, and people, from one

The problem is the option "Change preferences" is not
there.
What do I do?

- customize >> Folder settings gone haywireI just formatted my harddisk and reinstalling Win XP Pro and SP1. After
painstakingly setting the folder view and folder picture for every folder in
My pictures, I noticed that some folder settings are "cross-contaminated" by
settings from another folder from a different location. I had edited the
registry with the bags8000 registry edit provided for some other queries but
this problem seems to persist.
Furthermore, the settings were totally different when I access the My
Pictures folder through My Computer>My Documents>My Pictures from when I
access the My Pictures folder direct through the Start menu. How is this so?
Does this mean I have to set every individual folder setting for both
pathways?

get was little rectangles instead of letters when I typed.
What to do????

- Windows XP >> image resizer caused a problemI reinstalled XP home and since then i can't change the name of the file without adding the file extention to it. An example would be right clicking on a photo on the net, goto "save as" if i leave the name as it is, it saves it fine (even though there is no file extention shown) if i try to change the name it saves it but when i check the type of file it reads "file type: file" and i can't open it unless i rename it with the .jpg extention or whatever the original was named. also i'm not changing the "save as type" when saving. The problem started after I installed image resizer, I removed image resizer through add/remove programs but I stiil have the same problem, Thank

- Windows XP Setup >> actve desktop, view videosI am unable to retrieve any windows from the desktop. I
receive messages that state access denied and the start
menu will only allow 2 functions which are shut down, and
log off. The windows media player will play music and
display visualizations but will not show the actual
video. The real.one player doesn't come up at all
because it it always preceeded by the Acrobat 6.0
window. What is going on with this system. Has it been
infected with a virus or does the system need to be re-
booted. I belive I was told something about "cookies
being enabled"' whatever that means. Help please!

- Windows XP Update >> Unable to update from microsoftI am running XP Professional, Internet Explorer 6.00.2900.2180 xpsp-sp2
........, and Outlook Express 6.0.2900.2180............
When I select on Internet Explorer the option (Tools) Windows Update, I get
the following message:
Thank you for your interest in obtaining updates from our site.
To use this site, you must be running Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or
later.
To upgrade to the latest version of the browser, go to the Internet Explorer
Downloads website.
Why does IE think I am running an older version, and how do I get an update
if it thinks the version is not correct?
What is even more curious, this error message occurred at every attempt to
run the update check last Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
On Wednesday, I was able to (repeatedly) contact the update site, have
checks made for any required patches, and download as applicable.
Come Thursay and today (Friday), and that error message is back, on every
occasion.
Is this a problem with accessing Microsoft?
I have made no changes to firewalls, security options, cookies, link page
blocking etc.....
Any ideas please?
Regards
Eric

so I set up this newsgroup in Outlook Express (following the instructions on

- Windows XP Network >> It was the firewallI came to the group several days ago seeking the solution to my networking
problem. Several MVPs (Chuck in particular) responded with great info and
asked me to come back to the group and share any insights I might have had.
So in that spirit, here I am and here is what happened:
I had/have a desktop Win2K machine and a laptop Win2K machine that
shared/share files with no problems at all. Then I bought a new laptop with
XP Home.
When I tried to add it to the network, it could share files with the desktop
but NOT with the laptop. I tried everything and finally gave up.
Meanwhile back at the ranch ... a few days ago ZoneAlarm announced they had
a new update to their firewall, and I decided to install it, on my Win2K
laptop. They recommended a clean install -- that is, resetting everything.
Suddenly, out of the blue, the two laptops started sharing with no problems.
Here's what happened: Since the desktop and laptop were already sharing
flawlessly, I was lulled into thinking all was well with them, and that the
problem must lie with the new laptop. But in reality I had made the settings
of the laptop firewall very specific, to allow traffic only with the
desktop. Whereas I should/could have allowed traffic in a more general way
(e.g. "any computer in your subnet").
It was the laptop firewall that was blocking access to the other laptop. By
pure chance, the desktop firewall was set in a more general way and masked
the problem.
Moral of the story: remember that *all* firewalls in the net might
contribute to the problem when a new computer arrives. Re-check them to make
sure they're not blocking something.
