generally you dont want to go over 80C, they are supposed to be able to go up to 120C, but doing so is really pushing it, as a generall rule, if you must go over 80, dont go over 100. Also, most people, including me will tell you to get water cooling, then you wont have so much to worry about... Not to mention unless you have an extremly fast bus to the memory and north bridge you cant really take advantage of overclocking your cpu...

sounds to me like you removed something you shouldnt have when you got rid of SP2, my reccomendation is to goto the win update site, and update your computer, keeping away from SP2 if thats something you dont want, and then reinstall WM10

Well, in answer to your first question, i know of no way to deny a computer access to a domain other than not having it registered on the server/not having the domain controller add the computer to the domain at install time. For your second question, unless the scripts are globaly applied, simply place the computer under a seperate catagory that the script wont run on. But how do you have your scripts set up?, you could also change your scripts so that it detects that the computer in WinXP, i cant remember how to do this, but you can, search around a bit.

Generically its called nLite, and most of the stuff you'll be looking for is in all the unattended setup threads hanging around, check there...

do a google search for password revealers and you'll come up with tons of free software that will allow you to do what you want...

Well, you could goto File->Open->Outlook Data File, which will allow you access to that data file, or you could use the Import Engine, File->Import and Export...

Of course there still is the annoying issue of what format the db is in... if its protected info it most likely wont be in plain text format. The auther might have done some tricky dbasing stuff and both encrypted and compressed it. Rather like the format used on protected dvd's. Of course this is just conjecture, but, it'll be interesting to see what fox reports back with.

Hmm, its just a hunch, but i think your problem may have to do with the Enhanced History Manager plugin... I could be completly wrong, but the reason i say this is because from the info you've given us, its probably an init problem of some sort, and since most of the other plugins wouldnt be affected by the profile in use, the most logical plugin to fault would be that one. I could of course be wrong, but disable that extension and see what happens is my advise...

My guess is that the program is obfuscated, in which case its nearly impossible to get hard coded info back out, there are ways, but generally they are even more long and tedious than is generally nessecary... However, try a program called ResHack, it will show all the resources available to the program that are hard coded into it, still, its not garenteed that it will work. You might be able however to use it to find the location of the online dbase, and the comm protocols used, and then make your own program to access it. Also, consider that those lists may not actually be in the program itself, they may be satalight files, search there too... Welcome to the much annoying(yet amazingly useful) world of reverse enginering!

Sometimes it happens naturally, a bad burning or whatever. However, in your case its probably the CD burning software you used, sometimes you need to set a special option somewhere to make the CD burnable, look around and try and find it, and if that doesnt work, who knows, post back then with whatever options your using in nLite, it might be that...

What you essentally need to do is attach all the computers to the router, be it via ethenet cable(ussualy straight but look at the manual) or wireless. As a generic setting, have all computers get there ip settings dynamically and that should work(providing the router is DHCP enabled). These settings are available under the settings of your network adapter in the network connections folder. Unless you are all under the same workgroup name, which you arn't if you're trying to connect your work computer to your home network, all your computers will be visible in a place called Microsoft Windows Network, search around a bit in the network connections folder to find it... Anyways, to share files, you will need to setup shares on your computers, and then edit the accessibilty and visibility settings of those files, right click on the file in question, and then goto the tab marked sharing. As to the network printer stuff, that is ussualy shared automatically, although if your behind a firewall, such as the one in WinXP SP2 you'll most likely have to tweak it a bit for your network to work properly. Thus, in answer to your question about what stuff you need, in terms of software its none(not counting the NIC drivers), in hardware however you'll need obviously some NIC or Wi-Fi cards, and depending on your router either straight or twisted ethernet cable... Hope this helped, networking isnt the easist of things, especially with Wi-Fi, but if you need any more help, all of MSFN and of course google is there to help

Heck, even using windows native burning tools and drag-n-drop the cd will remain bootable! But, ya, a simple cd copy will sufice

I get this problem too sometimes, not as serious as yours, but then I am running a base install of it... For me its almost like it can't draw to the graphics drivers... I thought that it was actually a bug in the software... Still, can you open new tabs and view pages on them? What content are on the pages you're viewing, for me it generally happens with flash pages... Honestly, I have no idea what causes this to happen, but what I have found useful is simply to minimize firefox, and then restore it to previous size... I would ask this question to the firefox dev team though, they will probably have an answer, else tell you that its simply caused by an errent extension...

Thats cool, never knew that, thanks for clearing things up!!!

Er, remove the blue bar from what? From what part of the WPI, or just in general? Please be more specific...

its a lot easier to do in C++... but the way i do it( which is probably the completly the wrong way to do it, but it works) is to create a common gateway framework for all your apps, such as this is the function that you will call to access the plugin and these are the variables... Anyway, what you would do(not sure if you can do it in vb) is create the DLL plugin, and then call the LoadLibraryEX function... Check out the MSDN documentation on it, there is a great article, albeit old entitled 'DLL's the dynamic way', you should check it out, it is a C++ article, but its pretty self explanatory so long as you understand some C++... Also, my recomendation is to look at the source code of other apps that support plugins, SourceForge and OSDN host plenty projects like this... ah, the url of that article mention above is: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default..../dlldynamic.asp

Hmm, interesting, maybe i was just doing it wrong whenever i tried it... I know that it will work providing that you are running an NTFS(possibly fat32, i cant remember how that boots) machine and that as long as you havent changed any hardware it will work, but as far as i understnad, if you arent it wont work... Still, you may be right, i dont do this often, i might have been doing something wrong... go figure...

You could try Dev-CPP, but thats only for C++, it really depends on the language your programming in...

That only helps though if you set the BIOS to boot to that drive, and only if the drive is formatted to NTFS... If its for a cd, or floppy, even if it is formated to IBM, or CDFS standards, it wont work... Also, the NTLDR file is purly for booting the ntoskrnl file. Also, it depends on what your BIOS is, sometimes it will tell windows that the EIDE/SATA/SCSI orders are different depending on the boot partition... Still, it is a cool way to test different installed systems, and for recovering from corrupted installs...

Yes, but that will still eat up system resources. The only way to truley get rid of it is by not having a desktop wallpaper.

I would try 7Zip again if I were you, it worked for me...

You could try recompiling the cab with the windows archive util, or 7zip, or whatever, and then, esspecially if you use the win tool, it should be compatible with all types of decopressers and you would be free to extract it and install unatended...

Yes, you will find other virus's and what not on your computer after you uninstall something, and then reinstall something different. However, its not like it happens only with Norton, happens with all AV, and just software in particular. Also, just because the new AV finds something doesnt mean that it actually exists, it could just be detecting a remnent of the virus, or it could by a mis-call...

Try the ClearType config tool from MSoft, its a power toy, else... just search around...

Since its the wall paper file that Windows displays on your desktop, the answer is no, unless you want just a simple plain colour desktop, then you can delete that file...
