I'm using this command to limit logon times for my kids, but it doesn't seem
to log them off when the time is up, 9 pm in this example.

Since downloading and installing an update for Internet Explorer 7.0, I have
been unable to open a url in any non-Microsoft program.  Instead, clicking on
the link produces the following error message:

Hi, I've not been on the machine concerned for quite a while, two/three
weeks; however the family member concerned assures me that they have not
installed or changed anything in Windows;
My main hard drive in my computer (C:) is saying it's got 15GB Free, as

I have a question about remote assistance in Win XP. Is it possible that the
domain admin can prepare an invitation file for a computer/user in the

computer as needed. Of course the user needs to confirm the ...

I'm running XP Pro SP2. I have Spybot S&D v1.4, Spyware Blaster v1.3, and
McAfee VirusScan v10, all up to date. I have defragged my hard disk and run
Chkdsk within the last week.
Yesterday, all of a sudden, my machine slowed to a crawl, to the extent that

I downloaded some text processing utilities and installed them.  They are
run at the command prompt only and want to set up my system so that when I go
to the command prompt and type in the name of a utility to run on a file it
will automatically know where to find them.

My env is to small to roll out WSUS. I dont want updates installed on the
clients automaitcally aka without testing.
Is there a tool to scan the PC's on my domain to see what machines are
patched and what machines need certain patches?

Hiya
I'm running XP Pro SP2 and I have admin rights. I've just had to do a System Restore, and it's gone and created a brand new profile called "Dave Logan.DaveComputer" ("DaveComputer" being my computer's name). My old profile, "Dave Logan" is no longer being used. I don't know ...

I have apparently screwed up my registry, and am trying to do a complete
rebuild of my machine.  I've tried to start by formatting the hard drive.  
I've tried to call for the reformat in several ways, but each time I'm told
that the disk cannot be reformatted because several ...

A few days before I got a problem that when ever I run Dos or Dos type
application, my computer goes on restart. I reinstalled windows(xp) many
times but problem was not solved. then someone told me to format all my hard
disk even repartition will solve this problem. I did this ...

On start up I receive this message:
DLL c:\windows\system32\HHCTRL.OCX occupied an address range reserved for
windows system DLLS

Rather than have Index Service chugging away seemingly incessantly, is
there a way I might do a batch indexing of a HDD's files, other than
going in one night to turn it on for all of my (more-than-a-few)
drives/partitions, and turning it off the next day?

In Control Panel/Sounds and Audio Devices, there is a button for "Device
connect" and one for "Device disconnect."  (As, for example, if you plug or
unplug something into a USB port.)
My computer occasionally makes these sounds---always in pairs only seconds

In my WinXP config, I auto-hide the task bar. Balloon tips for task-bar
items, however, are mostly hidden by the bar when it's activated. I
noticed in a (groan) reinstall of my system that this wasn't the case,
until I brought the system back up to where it had been recently.
