  1. I've got a strange problem: I reinstalled XP on my laptop some days ago, and everything was working fine. My system booted up like there was a hellhound on it's trail. Today I installed Acronis True Image Workstation, and after a reboot the taskbar (and a lot of services) didn't load anymore. So I booted in safe mode (taskbar did start) and disabled the services of Acronis True Image that start up with XP. Rebooted my system, but taskbar wouldn't start. I then used XP's restore point before the Acronis install, rebooted, taskbar still didn't start. Then I found out that after I'd boot XP and manually start an application (Photoshop) the taskbar would start (and the rest of the missing services also fire up). And everything is running normally. The first service that shows up after starting an application is rundll32.exe. A pic of the services that do start up, and the services that start up after manually starting an application is attached. If anyone has a clue what's going on, please enlighten me...

Neelie Kroes, the European Union's competition commissioner, gave the world's largest software group until next Thursday - Thanksgiving Day in America - to hand over all relevant information about the secret protocols behind its Windows operating system. Ms Kroes fined Microsoft €280.5m (£190m) in July for failing to comply with commission rulings and could now fine it up to €3m a day.
