I've a couple of spare USB pen drive laying around. So I was wondering if there's any software that can "turn" one of these USB Stick into a Security Token. For example, rather than me typing my password to logon to Windows. All I have to do is just plug-in this "normal" USB Stick and it just authenticate and logs me in. Similarly when I pull/remove the USB Stick it'll automatically logs me out or lock the screen? Is this a wishful thought or are there any software implementation out there doing just that ... Thanks

Cheers nmX.Memnoch! That's what I'm looking for!!! A low-profile NIC!!!

It's an IBM Netvista Slimline version. Yes it's PCI slot and yes it'll work when you plug it in. Problem is because it's a different form factor, the 3Com network card is sticking out (about 3-4cm). So there's impossible to put the casing back. Hence, I was wondering if there's a different form format for Micro ATX ...

I've got a Micro ATX (aka Small form factor) motherboard. There are 3 spare PCI slot and I'll like to a network card to it. But standard network card just seem to be too large. Does anyone know if there's small form factor version of the network card specifically for Micro ATX motherboard? Thanks!

Can anyone recommend any good host/service/network monitoring program in a Linux/Windows environment? My mate told me that Nagios is quite good. Any one use it before? Thanks!

You know when you download a web templates from say TemplateMonster etc. They normally comes with extra fonts that they use for the templates. Is there any software that can "manage" fonts on XP? Ideally one that will allow me to "mount" and "un-mount" them as and when I need them. Hence my system doesn't have to load up all the fonts every time? Thanks

Thanks tevoy! Do you think it's possible to load DBAN via LOADLIN.EXE from within XP ?

Hi, Does anyone know or use any software that can quickly erase a HDD. Ideally one which can be executed with the click of a button/icon (auto mount the ISO, forced shutdown, reboot and erase ... ). Preferable something fast and if it meets US DoD disk sanitation standards will be an added bonus ... A quick search on Google found two promising tools:- http://www.killdisk.com/ http://dban.sourceforge.net/ Have anyone used them before? Thanks!

Thanks all. Problem sorted now! I've decided to d/l the zip file from Bitcomet as suggested by DigeratiPrime. And then use the "assoc" command to associate .torrent to bitcomet.exe :-)

ripken204: I don't use IE. Just firefox ... just keep it there for Windows Updates :-) I'll have a look at auto-it ... i heard it's not easy to script it ... cyberloner: do you mean just recreate the installation from the %programfiles%/bitcomet folder? Maybe just rar and create a SFX ? then somehow associate .torrent files to bitcomet.exe using registry tweak?

Hi, I just tried to do an unattended install of the new 0.60 Bitcomet using the usual slient switch. bitcomet.exe/S It seems that they have included their new "Bitcomet Toolbar" using yahoo search. Is there anyway I can do an unattended install without installing this toolbar? Any help will be much appreciated!! chrno2004

Hi, I've recently applied a registry tweak and I noticed that the share drive aren't working any more. I can't seem to share my drive/folders any more. I've double checked the "comments" but can't seem to find anything wrong with it. I've attached the registry file and any assistance will be much appreciated! Regtry Tweak that was applied Chrno

got the same problem ... any ideas?

many thanks !

Sorry I didn't quite understand why you are compressing the folders here. Is it something to do with WMI or was it just to save hdd space? Are there any speed/performance impact on compressing these folders?
