  1. Don't know if this is against the rules, but why don't you post it. I don't mind taking a look at it.
  2. According to Microsoft, a lot of these claims are unfounded. Most programs aren't designed for QOS. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...b;EN-US;q316666 I don't usually leave it on, but I am looking into it to see if it is a hinderence or not. I wouldn't mind being able to limit some connections, while not others.
  3. You must not have a job
  4. I usually apply mine twice. Once in cmdlines, and once at runonceex. The one before is meant for default user, and the one after is for keys that may have been overwritten on program installs, or first login.
  5. You could post the changes you have made to the os. Also what permissions you have on C:\
  6. You can try placing rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess in a batch file after you import your runonceex keys. Haven't tested to see if this will work in setup though.
  7. That is standard.
  8. Since WinRAR makes its installer based off its own product, you will need WinRAR. Download WinRAR Extract wrar340.exe using WinRAR to C:\winrar Add RarReg.key to C:\winrar Now you need to make the installer Open up WinRAR, and in the address bar put C:\winrar Select all the files. Hit the add button. This should bring up a dialog about making a new archive. Use the following options. Add the following comment Path=WinRAR SavePath Setup=uninstall.exe /setup Presetup=uninstall.exe /clean Overwrite=1 Delete=*.lng Delete=rarlng.dll Delete=rarext.dll Delete=register.frm Delete=rar_site.txt Delete=register.txt Delete=order.txt Delete=Dos.sfx Delete=os2.sfx Delete=Formats\ace.fmt Delete=Formats\arj.fmt Delete=Formats\cab.fmt Delete=Formats\gz.fmt Delete=Formats\lzh.fmt Delete=Formats\tar.fmt Delete=Formats\uue.fmt Delete=Formats\bz2.fmt Delete=Formats\iso.fmt Delete=Formats\unacev2.dll Delete=Formats\7z.fmt Delete=Formats\7za.dll Delete=Formats\z.fmt Title=WinRAR 3.40 Corporate Edition Text { <html> <body bgcolor="#ececec"> <style> body { color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-family: "MS Sans Serif"; font-size: 12; scrollbar-3dlight-color:#f0f0f0; scrollbar-arrow-color:#f0f0f0; scrollbar-darkshadow-color:#909090; scrollbar-face-color:#909090; scrollbar-highlight-color:#f0f0f0; scrollbar-shadow-color:#f0f0f0 } em {color: navy; font-style: normal} </style> <b>WinRAR is a powerful archiver</b>.

Your file should be in the c:\winrar folder.
  9. For resource editors, I prefer resource tuner or restorator. Restorator is nice, because it can let you make a program to send your changes to others. Haven't figured out how to make it skip the crc check by default on different versions of files, but its the best tool for that job. Both cost cash though.
  10. Looks nice, but the real beauty is in the stuff that we don't see.
  11. This is because this was the last build that let users have multiple remote desktop connections. Later ones had it taken out. When someone posts how to hack the file, you can be sure it will be up here.
  12. Making a guide how to do it would probably have been the best thing to say in this situation, not throw up your email address. If someone is interested, I can post it, but I didn't think there was that much interest in it since it is pretty basic.
  13. My response was meant to be a joke, but all of you guys who do respond can answer the poor man's questions. System Administration is necessarily a bad job. It depends on your users. I like people with common sense. So you can quickly find the people you don't like by the questions they ask. It can also be a wonderful job too. For the most part the answers would be what I would put in a real survey, but I didn't want the guy to fail his assignment. I enjoy my job, but not the tech support portion of it. I can deal with techies, but not normal users. Every industry needs people with common sense, but its not something you can find out in an interview. If more users had common sense, we wouldn't have problems with many email spreading viruses and such.
  14. Doing a search on CDROM variable would probably turn up several threads on different ways to get it.
  15. If you are just worried about the cmd files then why don't you try redirection. moo.cmd >> C:\my.log 2>&1 The >> will output stdout to the my.log, the 2>&1 is saying to put stderr the same place stderr is going. I'll leave it up to you to learn how to put it in the registry.
  16. I personally prefer Ultraedit, it does text files, and hex editing. Others I know prefer textedit. Another friend of mine prefers crimsom editor. I also like vi, they like emacs. Pick one, and stick with it. Most of them have similar functionality, but we usually stick with what we learn first.
  17. Try going to any site with umm nekkid ladies, unless your a minor. See how many pop ups you get with firefox vs ie. The main difference I see it in, is when using multiple windows. I've had IE kill my memory with the windows, but firefox barely changes. Tabbed browsing is a wonderful feature that takes a little bit of getting used to, but you don't have to use it. The extension feature is nice too. Go to cheapassgamer.com in both browsers, and tell me which one looks better. I'm currently using 0.9.3, and have not had a problem with it yet. Many people like to bring up the security features of ie vs firefox, but I say that firefox has to prove itself in this arena. Just remember that ie wasn't considered that good of a browser till 4.0ish.
  18. I can imagine these will be some likely answers, but don't include them in your homework unless no one else responds. Too long Hell Leaving The users Have fun!
  19. You can use CommonFilesDir for the common files directory. Also rather than using the registry files, stick with REG.EXE. Would be a little cleaner here, IMHO.
  20. This reminds me of the part in scary movie where the guy busts out a weed trimmer, to trim something. Trim that thing down man. All that profile crap can go. Shrink it down by combining common keys too. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR\General] "LimitLog"=dword:00000000 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR\General] "Log"=dword:00000000becomes [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR\General] "LimitLog"=dword:00000000 "Log"=dword:00000000
  21. Everyone knows Dan Rather lies. gosh is actually a hermaphadite (sp?). I was shocked too when I found out, but shim's still cool by me.
  22. What you want to do is go to your HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (HKCR) section of your registry. What you want to do is go to the extension of the file you are looking at. For example .mp3, go to .mp3. What you want to do is associate that to a program. If you look under the default section of .mp3 you will find mp3file. I would change this to Winamp.File, or so other naming convention you choose. Do this for each extension you want associated with Winamp. Now add a Winamp.File registry key under HKCR. Under the Winamp.File you are worried about two things here. The icon, and the opening command. For the icon, add a DefaultIcon key under Winamp.File. Under the default section, add the path to the icon, and index, if any. For the command to open, you will need to add a Shell key under Winamp.File, followed by and Open, then by a command. Under the default section of the Command, is where you put your command to execute. It should default to open. If you have other commands, such as enqueue, which you want as default, under the shell key, you should set the default section to enqueue. The best way to get an understanding of this is by looking at the other registry keys. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.mp3] @="Winamp.File" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Winamp.File] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Winamp.File\DefaultIcon] @="C:\\Program Files\\Winamp\winamp.exe,11" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Winamp.File\shell] @="Enqueue" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Winamp.File\shell\open] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Winamp.File\shell\open\command] @="\"C:\\Program Files\\Winamp\winamp.exe\" \"%1\"" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Winamp.File\shell\Enqueue] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Winamp.File\shell\Enqueue\command] @="\"C:\\Program Files\\Winamp\winamp.exe\" /ADD \"%1\"" There is still a lot more to it, but this is the jist of it. Hope this helps.
  23. That site and the ref.chm should be all you really need to make an winnt.sif file.
  24. The easy way to remember this is that an external commands don't need cmd /c. So if you can find the exe in your path, then you don't need it. xcopy.exe is external. Internal commands such as copy and move will need the cmd /c infront of them. You can't find an executable file for these commands.
