- Windows XP Security >> XP Home sharing and securityI'm trying to help a friend who has a set of XP Pro
systems in a domain with a Win2003 SBS Server. This
domain (companyname.net) and the PCs in it happen to be on
the same LAN in their office as his wife's business, which
only has 2 PCs, both running XP Home (no domain, just the
workgroup "office"). They need to share a folder between
the 2 PCs running XP Home, but they want to make sure the
share can not be accessed from the other systems that are
part of the companyname.net domain. I know you can boot
the XP Home system in Safe Mode, and gain access to the
full security settings. The problem is, I don't know what
to add or change to make sure only the 2 systems in the XP
Home Workgroup can see the shares, and deny access to the
systems in the companyname.net domain. If I
remove "everyone", it denies access to the domain PCs, but
also denies access to the other XP Home PC. Suggestions?

- Windows XP Security >> Spyware InfectionEver since visiting what I thought was a safe website earlier today, I've
continuted to receive this message:
"Your computer is in Danger!
Windows Security Center has detected a spyware/adware infection!
It is strongly recommended to use special antispyware tools to prevent data
loss.
Click here to install the latest protection tools!"
I've tried clicking the balloon that pops up, but nothing happens. I've also
done a Spyware Scan with Mircosoft Anti-Spyware and it came up with no
results. What should I do?
Also, this may be related somehow. Since this "infection", the task manager
has been disabled by my administrator. However, I am the administrator, and I
never disabled the task manager. What's going on?

- Windows XP Security >> I need more helpMy McAfee Virus Scan wasn't working and would not reinstall. I followed advice I got on here and tried Panda, which located and cleaned the virus which was affecting my McAfee. I was then able to reinstall my McAfee Virus Scan. But now it still won't update. McAfee tech told me it was because I have Panda software on my computer now and they are conflicting. He said I need to completely uninstall the Panda software. It doesn't show up in my Add/Remove section, only in my Registry Editor. Can someone tell me how to completely remove this Panda software? Thanks.

- Windows XP Security >> DEP FUN, CONFUSION, AND HYPOCRISYI'm restarting my computer as usual, when all of a sudden, DEP appears,
stating that Windows Explorer needs to be closed. So I do, screen goes blank,
and Windows Explorer re-appears. I read Help, and I try to tell DEP not to
close Windows Explorer, however, to do that, I need to go to Control Panel.
And when I go to Control Panel, the computer doesn't let me, because DEP
appears, says Windows Explorer need to be closed. then the process starts all
over again.
I have restarted 6 times already, and it's still not working (going to
Control Panel), and Windows Explorer has stopped re-appearing/remained blank,
except for a:
Windows Explorer needs to be closed.
-something-Help-something-
Luckily, going to Help eventually provides a link to the Internet, leading
me here.
Does anyone have a solution?

- Windows XP Support >> Rundll32.exe holding sysdm.cpl openHi,
I have found that I'm unable to access the System icon in the control panel.
I double click and nothing happens. I think the reason this is happening is
because for some reason rundll32.exe is using that file.
A look at the process list shows :
RUNDLL32.EXE "C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe"
Shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL sysdm.cpl
3652
Also if I terminate rundll32.exe from the task manager I can then access the
system icon, so that's definatley the cause.
The question therefore is what's causing rundll32.exe to use the System
control panel icon and then not let it go.
Thanks.

Windows XP >> Security Incompatibility?
I am running XP with Norton Internet Security 2006. For months, no problem
and suddenly I can not access the secure server at Amazon.com and Amazon.uk.
Each time, I get an error message.
If I sign in using the standard server, I get access.
Any ideas?

Try reregistering some .dll's
If you have SP2, you can do it all in one go:
Start>Run cmd [enter]
iexplore.exe /rereg [enter]
Without SP2:
Start>Run cmd [enter]
regsvr32 mshtml.dll [enter]
Click OK when you get the message that DLLRegisterServer in FileName
succeeded and type "exit" to quit cmd.
Repeat the same with:
regsvr32 mshtmled.dll
regsvr32 urlmon.dll
regsvr32 softpub.dll
regsvr32 wintrust.dll
regsvr32 initpki.dll
regsvr32 dssenh.dll
regsvr32 rsaenh.dll
regsvr32 gpkcsp.dll
regsvr32 sccbase.dll
regsvr32 slbcsp.dll
regsvr32 cryptdlg.dll

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Windows Update Keeps Installing MDACMy laptop runs Microsoft Update. Each morning for about 3
months it has been trying to install the "Security Update
Microsoft Data Access Components (KB823718)".
The update reports installation as successful. When I
check my install history using the microsoft updates
website it shows multiple successful installs of this
update.
I checked the Microsoft updates troubleshooter webpages
which says to contact microsoft support with my windows
update.log and seupapi.log files ready.
My laptop is a compaq armada and I run updates from
within a LAN. Other updates have occured with no
problems. Any assistance would be appreciated.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Fresh install - but very slow...I recently changed my broadband ISP and decided to do a completle fresh
install during the 10 days my line was 'being tested for optimum speed'
before being set at an appropriate level, and now my PC has turned in to a
sloth.
It's a homebuilt P4 2.8E with 2Gig RAM and two SATA drives and, although I
know this isn't anywhere near a true gauge of speed, the blue progress bar
crosses the screen at least 11 times now when it used to take only 4-5 before
the login screen appears. I've changed nothing other than the graphics card.
Originally I thought it may have been related to the new ISP, but this is
likely to have been coincidental - I came back from holiday the (expected)
changeover had taken place, but the connection was running really slow. As I
hadn't done any housework for a while, I thought a fresh install would help,
but if anything it's slower than before.
Another symptom seems to be internet explorer related, in that when
connected to the web clicking on a link often leads to a 'Page not found'
error, sometimes resolved by several clicks of the refresh button.
The only software installed was legitimate, registered and activated
Microsoft programs and hardware drivers, and no problems are apparent in
Device Manager. The soundcard is a Soundblaster Audigy 2 and the graphics
is a Gigabyte GeForce 7600GS. The USB hardware includes a Netgear DG834N,
Epson R300 and Brother HL-1440 printer, a Canon LiDe 80 scanner.
I also run Norton antivirus 2007.
Any suggestions - including a reinstall if necessary - would be appreciated,
thank you.

- Windows XP Hardware >> using rundll32.exe to upgrade to multiple CPUshas anyone had any luck automating the installation of

- Windows XP Setup >> FILES - Need to Rename Several Files At OnceHi.
XP has a method for renaming a series of files so that they have all the
same name and are then numbered, but I need to do something else, and I'm
not sure how.
I'm converting documents from an old word processor to MSWord and maybe Word
itself can do this, but I was first looking for some kind of system batch
file.
I want to change, for an example,
Monday.JAN
Tuesday.JAN
Wednesday.JAN
to
Monday JAN.DOC
Tuesday JAN.DOC
Wednesday JAN.DOC
That sort of thing. There are hundreds of files and I'm hoping someone
knows of a way to bulk-rename the files that way, rather than having a
folder full of Monday JAN (1).DOC, Monday JAN (2).DOC, and so on.
Thanks in advance for any help.

- Windows XP Hardware >> Last video configuration not retained on rebootOk, to start off i have almost always been having trouble with getting
my graphics card (ATI X700) to work to its fullest. But having said
that, I don't think the video card is the problem. I have installed
the card in another computer and it works fine. In addition, I have
recently discovered one clue (see the very bottom of this post) that
might help figure out what is wrong.
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
When i formatted my computer atleast 6 months ago and installed the
video card drivers the following would happen:
I would install the driver, restart, and once it got to the log in
screen the computer would freeze completely after about 20 seconds, no
matter what i do. Then i would restart by pressing the restart button
on the computer, and this time the computer would work fine and the
video card drivers would work.
But the next time i turn off the computer and start it up the
resolution would be the lowest and the colors would be set to the
lowest and worst looking. When i try to change these settings, it
doesn't change and just stays at a low resoltuion and color. Then
everytime i wanted to get my graphics back up to normal i would have
to install the driver again, restart, let it freeze again, restart,
and then it would work, until i restarted my computer again.
I was coping with letting my computer do that, but recently i decided
it was time for another reformat (hoping my video card problem would
go away). So i reformatted, installed all the windows updates, except
misc ones like messenger (And yes i did install .Net framework 2.0
because the driver requires it). After i installed all those updates i
got the newest video driver for my card (version 6.11) and installed
it, then restarted my computer. But is exactly the same as before...
my computer still freezes the first time when i start up, and then i
have to restart it again for it to work. And just like before when i
turn off my computer the resolution goes back to low as well as the
color, which means i have to install the video card driver again and
go through the whole process again of restarting, letting it freeze,
and restarting.
CLUE:
Recently I discovered that if I press F8 as the computer is rebooting,
and then choose 'Use Last Known Configuration', then it will start up
properly and everything works fine, without having to reboot. So, why
doesn't it automatically use Last Configuration??
It would be of GREAT if you could help me fix this problem because as
you know, i shouldn't have to install my video card driver all the
time.
Thanks, Graham

- Windows XP Network >> Getting "Access Denied"Hi,
I have a home network of four pc's. Three have Xphome
and one XP pro. They are connected through a linksy
router. On my machine, (one of the xp home) I can see and
access all other shares. The problem is that none of the
others can access mine. I share my cable internet with
all with no problem and all of the others can see and
access each other files. I'm at a loss here. What have I
done on mine that prevents them from accessing? All are
in the same workgroup with different pc names. If I use
view workgroup computers from one of the others mine
shows up but cannot be accessed. Any help will be deeply
appreciated!!

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Slow XP Pro Anyone else?Hello to anyone else experiencing the same problems I
am. I'm running Windows XP Pro SP1 and have all the
critical updates installed and find that now my computer
takes like 10 minutes to load any software programs, it
does not matter which ones either, Word, Disk
Defragmenter (which I run frequently 2 to 3 times a week)
and any other programs. I can almost go eat dinner and
then come back and the program(s) will then all the
sudden come up? Was wondering why such a delay, with a
good working hard drive and all equipment working
perfectly? Thanks if anyone finds an answer to this
puzzling problem? Will check the CPU usage but it hasn't
been high normally either?
Thanks > Mike

- Windows XP Network >> Can't surf but can still downloadI have two computers connected to a Linksys WRT54G (wireless router).
My trouble is that from time to time I loose the ability to surf the
web on both computers at the same time. But while I can't surf, I can
still download files via any bittorrent client like utorrent.
When I unplug the ac power to the router and replug it in, I re-gain my
surfing capabilities.
I loose my connectivity once or twice a day and have to do the unplug
and replug thing.
This is the third linksys router that I've had this problem with. The
first was a wired router BEFSR41 and the 2nd was a WRT54G (wireless
router) and now I'm on my third router, again a WRT54G.
Linksys gave me the 3 router hoping to correct the problem. It didn't.
The cable modem is getting a strong signal...so says the cable
company. They think it's an ip conflict caused by the router.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
