- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> NTFS metadata/$Secure:$SDS fragmentationI just wanted to see if anyone out there knows whether security
descriptor fragmentation is a problem. PerfectDisk reports
fragmentation in the $Secure:$SDS datastream as an issue. It seems to
me that this datastream is not likely to be accessed contiguously, so
it should be benign. Is that true?
I would assume that fragmentation of the indexes ($Secure:$SDH and
$Secure:$SDI) is much more of an issue.
Does anyone have the inside scoop on whether fragmentation of the main
data store matters?
Thanks for your help.

- Windows XP Hardware >> network card disabled by unknown software problemHello,
On July 30 the network card of my laptop suddenly did not function anymore.
Reinstalling the drivers did not help. The supplier of my laptop gave me a
new motherboard, with built in network card, but that didn't fix it. They
said it was a software problem and that I needed to reïnstall Windows XP and
build up my whole configuration again. Then I reïnstalled the latest system
recovery point from before the problem started (June 27) and that did fix
it! No problems anymore.
Two weeks ago again my network card stopped functioning. What I can remember
is that I had a software crash while I was travelling (MS Word with MS Visio
openend for a included diagram did not come back from hibernate). When I
came home my network card did not function. I went back to the latest system
recovery point, but that did not help. Then I tried a system recovery point
before that, but to no avail...
Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this without a complete reïnstall of
Windows XP and all the software?
My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A50. The network card is an Intel(R)
PRO/100 VE.
Thanks for any suggestions,
regards,
Henk Koning

- Windows XP Hardware >> 48Bit LBA QuestionI have an older PC running Windows XP SP2 that does not support 48Bit LBA. I
would like to install a 160GB hard drive as a replacement for two smaller
drives.
If I create a primary partition (15GB) for the OS and an extended partition
containing a number of logical partitions non of which are greater than 30GB
will I run into any problems? I plan to move the existing OS over to the new
drive using Ghost.

Windows XP Update >> KB900325
Uninstall KB895572 from Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel and
then apply Update Rollup 2.
If it fails again, see if there's another KB that is causing the issue.
According to Aaron's blog, reapply the KB895572 that is causing the
install failure after installing the Rollup.
OR, if the system is *not* showing the Symptoms:
> When you transfer widescreen DVR-MS content from Microsoft Windows Media Player 10 to a
> portable device, the content may be distorted and unviewable on the device. This problem
> may occur when you transfer widescreen DVR-MS content to a Portable Media Center device.
then DO NOT install KB895572.

Windows XP Update >> KB900325
After seeing your other post, " cannot load KB922770 ", suggest you
uninstall .NET Framework 2.0. Reboot, then reinstall it again:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0856eacb-4362-4b0d-8edd-aab15c5e04f5&DisplayLang=en
In your first post in this thread you stated that both .NET Framework 1
and the update for it were successfully installed. You neglected to
mention the installation issue with the .ASP .NET Framework update,
KB922770. Apparently, that's the issue.

Sory I just thought they were two different issues, so two different
threads. I knew that NET1 and 1.1 could be an issue if not installed so
i mentioned those. Thanks for your help an I will try that.

Well I tried uninstalling net framework 2.0 and then tried to install
KB900325. NO luck. Then reinstalled NEt Framework 2.0 same thing. Then
updated Net Framework 2.0 (KB922770) which worked this time but the
KB900325 still fails.

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> M`I,5.Persecutio n ` BBC Newsca sters Lie & Den y Th eyre W atching MeMI5 Persecution: BBC Newscasters. Lie & Deny They're Watching Me
Central to the persecution campaign waged against me for. some nine years
now by the. Security Service is their use of the media, and in particular
the broadcast media, to make clear. to me that I am under surveillance and
being watched. within my own home, even by BBC newscasters while they read
the news. This is really an act. of arrogance; MI5 and their tools in the
television and radio are so sure that they. can never be caught, that they
have. many times made explicity clear on broadcast programmes that they are
as capable of seeing. me as I am of seeing the broadcast pictures. Even
when they have known I. am taping the programmes they still carry on this
practice; for examples of TVand radio presenters caught. "in action", see
the Evidence area of my. website.
If you wish to reply to this. article......
then please include. your name and fax number! I provide the means for
recipients to send me their thoughts on the. topics discussed, but ask that
you provide me with. your fax number or email address if you require a
response. Also would you please send not more than one or two pages, if. by
fax.. Thank-you!
It started with a Newscaster, and it continues with Newscasters. today
The very first incident in the story started with a. reaction by an ITN
newscaster, Sue. Carpenter, in June of 1990, almost nine years ago now. She
reacted to what she saw in my living room at home. as she read the news. My
mother had brought an apple for me into. the room, whereupon the newsreader
smirked and giggled, apparently finding this funny. I couldn't. believe
what I. was seeing. I carried on watching news and other television
programmes to see if presenters. would show signs of "interactive
watching"; to my surprise,. this happened again and again. Unfortunately, I
did not have my wits sufficiently about me to videotape. these programmes,
and it. is now almost impossible to obtain recordings dating back to 1990.
However, I have been. busy recording everything Ive watched the last couple
of years, and. the taping has yielded some nuggets, which you will find if
you point your Web browser at the "evidence" area of my website,. whose URL
address is given above. Strangely it. is not particularly the BBC who are
"after me" at the. moment (with the exception of occasional fire from
Nicholas Witchell), but that. supposed paragon of virtue and decency Jon
Snow of Channel Four TV News (he. actually works for ITN), who once claimed
hed turned down MI5s offer of a tax-free salary. I will. cover Snows recent
actions in a. future article.
BBCs Hidden. Shame
The first. ever Usenet post (internet newsgroup article) on the subject of
the MI5 bugging / BBC watching occurred, as stated in. a previous article,
in. early May 1995. It is reproduced here;
Date: Thu May . 4 18:27:24 1995
Newsgroups:. alt.conspiracy
Subject: BBC's Hidden. Shame
Remember. the two-way televisions in George Orwell's 1984? The ones which
watched you back? Which. you could never get rid of, only the sound could
be. turned down?
Well the country. which brought Orwell into the world has made his
nightmare follow into. the world after him. Since 1990 the British have
been waging war against one of. their own citizens using surveillance to
invade privacy and a campaign. of abuse in the transmitted media in their
efforts to. humiliate their "victim".
I. suppose "BBCs Hidden Shame" is more of a wish than a fact. It may be
hidden, but the. BBC and other media and security organisations seem to
have no shame whatever in. their anti-social, not to say criminal,
actions. Nor do the general public,. who seem quite happy to parrot the
vilest obscenities without. much hesitation or apparently thought.
Martyn Lewis, Nicholas Witchell and the. rest
Most of the harassment. occurred in 1990-92, when I wasnt making any
recordings, and the BBC wont release copies of. current affairs programmes
from that period.... so although I. can remember there were many incidents
in that time,. even many specifics, I cant dig up the actual programmes to
flesh out. the bones.
This year,. there has been at least one incident with Nicholas Witchell as
newsreader, which I have. successfully recorded and digitized,
i.e. converted into a. computer Quicktime movie file. This has not yet
found its. way onto my website (Im a busy man, dontcha know) but you can be
sure I will let. the readership of these articles know when that clip makes
it onto the web. The Witchell clip was recorded on Saturday 10. April 1999
at 7pm, and shows Witchell. trying to restrain his features from collapsing
into. a smirk. First his upper lip quivers for several minutes, then with
the non-excuse of a non-joke. his entire face twists into a grin. It looks
as if he. finds me so funny, that he allows himself to submerge any
pretence. at professionalism in a sea of MI5-inspired sarcasm and
harassment.
The two BBC newscasters whose. reactions to me I can remember most vividly
over the years are Martyn Lewis and Nicholas Witchell. I can. remember
thinking years ago that Michael Buerk. was also seeing me at home; and if
the other. two are watching then there would be no reason why he wouldnt be
doing. the same; but in all honesty I cannot remember a single clear
instance of his reacting through facial or verbal expression to. me.
I can remember several instances of Martyn Lewis reacting to what. he saw
of me, however. In early 1992 I was watching. the BBC news with Lewis on a
small black-and-white portable TV at my then home in. Oxford. I threw a
term of. abuse at Lewis; he flinched, then gave a grin and made a comment
from which I understood that he had been on my. side, but might have
changed his mind as a result of what. Id just said to him.
And in spring 1991 I remember Martyn Lewis clearly reacting to what he. saw
of me. at my then accommodation in Woking, Surrey, by continuing to stare
at some fixed point near the camera after the news had. finished -
presumably this is where the monitor interactively showing pictures of. my
room. was located.
Why would. BBC and other Newscasters Watch and Harass Me, Watching Them?
This is a very. difficult question, and I dont actually know the answer. It
is a matter of record that the Secret Services are. very much part of the
Establishment. The recent exposure of the "MI6. Agent List" on the
internet, and its coverage in the newspapers, reveals how much. MI5 and MI6
are recruited from the ranks. of the Establishment. Obviously the
relationship is bi-directional;. the Establishment influences MI5/MI6, but
the secret services (well, perhaps not so secret now. we know who works for
MI6!!!) also influence the machinery of. power and information
dissemination i.e. media. in this country. So they must have a lot of
covert leverage. with the BBC and ITN.
Some. of this leverage is obviously through bribery. It is a matter of
record that MI5 tried some years ago to. "buy" Jon Snow of Channel Four
TV. He turned them down - obviously they must have approached. other media
people as well, and from the. lack of other reports of people turning them
down,. it may be presumed that some other journalists will have accepted
the sugared carrots put before them. Ironically, Jon Snow has. been taking
part in the recent "watching" actions against. me - but why he has allowed
himself to be. used by the secret services is something which I do not
know.
Perhaps the Security. Service uses blackmail to twist arms of journalists
into co-operating with them? I have always thought. there was something
slightly odd about Martyn Lewiss demeanour. At. the time of the Ron Davies
"rough trade" scandal it was reported that MI5. had known all about Davies
predilections. and the sham of his pretence to be a happily married
man. Perhaps MI5 have been able. to dig something up from Martyn Lewiss
private life to blackmail him into acting. on their behalf? And if there
wasnt anything. before the "newscaster watching" started then there most
certainly. is something now.... once theyve started watching, the
newscasters will surely. wish their activities to remain covered-up, and
co-operate with the. security service.
"Newscaster Watching" Deliberately Constructed. to Mimic Schizophrenia
Presumably. this is the first case in history of television journalists
actually taking part in acts of real-time, live. spying and reacting
against one of. their viewers. What you have to understand, though, is that
I was quite mentally healthy in June 1990,. certainly relative to November
1992, when after two and a half. years of harassment I was finally admitted
to hospital as an out-patient. MI5 decided from the outset. that they would
make me mad;. they constructed the media harassment to resemble what would
be reported by a. person with mental illness; and then they carried on
years of abuse. to inflict on me the condition which they wished to use as
an excuse. to cover up their abuses.
I sold my portable TV. in autumn 1990 and stopped watching television
regularly. I realise now that this may have been a. mistake. What I should
have. done was to watch TV and listen to the radio, but tape-record
everything and make a note of what each excerpt meant to me. I would. then
be in a much stronger. position as regards to evidence that I am now. That
is what I am trying to do now, but unsurprisingly the TV/radio. presenters
have stopped getting at me, now they know they are being. recorded.
When I started publicising my case on internet newsgroups in. 1995, I was
met with the. disbelief one might expect to be accorded to a mentally ill
person who talks about "newscaster. watching" and media persecution. Some
newsgroup participants thought I had started a. "troll", an invention made
to obtain a reaction; one bright spark. even suggested a group of
psychology students were behind the articles. But most people. thought the
articles were. symptomatic of derangement - and that is exactly what MI5
want people to. think. MI5 chose me as a target because I was mildly
mentally ill at the outset in 1990,. although I stress my illness then was
very mild in comparison with November 1992, and because they knew. that
enough abuse would (a) make me much more seriously ill,. and (b) once I was
more ill, they would "get away" with. a harassment deliberately constructed
to look. like the symptoms of paranoid schizophrenia.
Martyn Lewis Denies & Lies, But Wont. in Writing
In February 1997 I wrote to BBC Viewer. & Listener Correspondence and asked
them to investigate the claim that their newscasters had. engaged in
"real-time spying" on me. They replied. that they had asked Martyn Lewis
and Michael Buerk whether they had engaged in. such practices, and that
they had both. made verbal denials to VLC, but were refusing to put their
denials. in writing.
To me it looks as if Lewis and Buerk are. happy to lie verbally but not in
writing,. because written falsehoods would place them unambiguously in the
wrong, whereas they can. try to talk their way out of verbal lies if they
are ever caught, or perhaps. even deny the verbal lies completely? If they
lie without shame, then why would. they have any shame about future lies
about. lying?
BBC-VLC also said that the BBC "would never. engage in any form of
surveillance activity" such as that. described. Clearly Martyn Lewis and
the rest have lied to their. own organisations personnel about their
criminal actions. So much for the "objective", "truthful" BBC,. a nest of
shabby. liars.
Summons against the BBC, for Nuisance caused by. Newscaster Spying
In March 1997 I issued a. civil summons against the BBC, seeking injunction
against. further "newscaster spying", and token damages for what the BBC
had done to me until that date. The purpose of the summons was to try. to
"smoke out" the BBC, since. obviously I did not have good evidence which
would be necessary. for either a civil or criminal case to be made against
them. My summons. was worded as follows;
1. The plaintiff is. and was at all material times residing at [home
address].. At some time prior to or during June 1990, persons of unknown
identity entered Plaintiff's premises and. installed concealed television
equipment in said. premises.
2. A campaign of. harassment was launched against the Plaintiff by the
persons of unknown identity, which in part took the form of. instigating
harassment by BBC. TV newscasters (including specifically Michael Buerk and
Martyn Lewis) as they read news bulletins, by making direct and. personal
comments to. Plaintiff.
3. The campaigns purpose was to subject. Plaintiff to great mental stress
and induce mental breakdown. As a result of it Plaintiff. did indeed suffer
from severe. mental strain in 1990-97.
4. In. order to avoid the mental strain being caused to him the Plaintiff
has been compelled. to stop watching BBC TV news. Defendant therefore
committed the tort of private nuisance,. since normal use of home was
interfered. with.
5. Plaintiff claims a permanent injunction prohibiting further. nuisance,
and. damages for nuisance suffered limited to 5,000.
Naturally, my attempt to smoke-out the BBC and. its lying newscasters
failed. The BBCs. litigation department sought to have my summons struck
out; and they succeeded. in doing so, on the grounds of my action
"disclosing no reasonable cause of. action". I was also prevented from
issuing further. civil claims against the BBC without leave of the
Court. Apparently litigants-in-person frequently / usually have. their
claims struck out. with this wording, regardless of the merit of their
claims.
BBC Suppresses my Claims of "Watching. by Newscasters"
BBCs staff magazine Ariel ran my advert. "BBC Newsreaders Spying on my
home" for one issue in the Personal. category on 8/July/1997 before it was
spotted and axed by. editor Robin Reynolds; please see
webpage;. http://www.pair.com/spook/evidence/plaint/ariel.htm
Clearly the BBC will not. allow claims of its wrongdoing to be made public
in the media channels. it controls.
On several occasions people said to my face that harassment from the. TV
was happening. On the first. day I worked in Oxford, I spent the evening in
the local pub the Rose and Crown with the company's. technical director
Ian, and Phil, another employee. Ian made a few references to me and. said
to Phil, as if in an aside, "Is he the bloke who's. been on TV?" to which
Phil replied, "Yes, I think. so".
The reader. might think that mere "watching" by newscasters etc might be a
relatively benign happening.. But it is not; it is part of MI5s framework
of harassment and lies. On many. occasions the reactions of the BBCs
newscasters. to me has been in the nature of sarcasm, implicit contempt and
abuse. This is visible in Witchells news programme. mentioned above, where
he engages in abuse by laughing at. me during his newsreading. It was
particularly visible in the early period of 1990-92, and as late as. Autumn
1993,. when during a Newsnight broadcast Jeremy Paxman interviewed a
football person about soccer hooliganism, and. the interviewee gave vent to
an unsubtle rant about "theyre idiots, theyre just idiots, keep up. the
surveillance". Paxman started grinning, showing he understood and. was
taking part in. the abuse being perpetrated on that programme.
Conclusion
The MI5 Persecution started with harassment by. television newscasters, and
today harassment by TV and radio presenters still. forms a key part of MI5s
activities against me. When. this business started in June 1990 I was in
relatively good health of mind. Years of persecution. by the secret police
and their mouthpieces in the state-run BBC and other media. eroded my
health until MI5 achieved their aim of seeing me rendered mentally. ill in
November 1992. The diagnosis which was forced on me unfortunately. and
ironically meant that my reports. of the harassment are disregarded,
because. the mentally ill are second-class citizens in todays Britain.
Yet TV and radio. harassment continues, albeit in a reduced form, despite
my taping. all the programmes I watch, resulting in my being able to obtain
and. demonstrate objectively on the website instances of media presenters
attacking me. Unfortunately these recorded instances are quite tenuous;. I
might understand them, the presenters understand what. it is theyre doing,
but. despite many thousands of people knowing the truth of the "newscaster
watching", the omerta. continues and they continue to refuse to admit the
truth of the matter. It is a terrible indictment of. British society that
there is not even one decent. person willing to speak out. I look forward
to the day when the truth does finally emerge, and the mass. corruption
which has allowed the MI5 persecution to take place. is finally purged and
the Establishment criminals caught and appropriately. punished.

- Windows XP Support >> Problem with IE with multiple logonsI'm quite new to XP (just got a new PC and am running XP Home Edition). I have
two logons, one for me and one for my partner. If I leave Internet Explorer
open under my logon, she is unable to open or run it under her logon. She gets
a runtime error coming from Visual C++!! Is there any way to allow me to
leave my copy of IE running and allow her to be able to run it under her
logon?
Another thing that happened was when I plugged my digital camera into the USB
slot and it fired up the camera's software, later when she came to login
(and i
had closed everything) she found the same bit of software had fired up under
her logon (when she was at the logon screen she was surprised to see "1

- Windows XP Network >> Can't Dial Up - Help PLEASEHi all, One of my friends is having trouble creating a dial up connection on
his winxpPro machine. I've had a look with my limited experience, with no
luck, so I thought I'd ask here.
It's a Packard Bell Celeron 400Mhz machine with a US Robotics modem and a
NIC card. The machine was mine, on which I used a dial up connection before
i got broadband. He lives in an area without any broadband connections, so
wants to use a dial up connection.
He tried a BT Openworld CD to install the connection. All it came up with
was a corrupt file. Knackered CD I think, so I try to see if I can set up a
manual connection. The only way that it will let me set up a manual
connection is via broadband ( The other two options are greyed out) Is
there any way to fix this and create a connection via the dial up modem??
We know that the phone line is OK, so I'm thinking that the problem must
lie between the PC, NIC, and the modem.
ANY help would be greatfully received
