  1. I am going out on a limb and assuming that you guys are running top shelf hardware i.e. cisco routers/switches in addition to your software firewalls (CheckPoint and such)... haven't your guys figured out how to block the port being used by the IM clients at least on the router/switch (hardware layer) then move to the "advanced" layer of the software configs... via your firewalls? Yes you are correct 350 individual firewalls is overkill and pointless especially since you cannot manage that ever. Cbay... MCSE, MCSA, CCSA, MCP, A+
  2. Uninstall SP2 and reinstall Norton2003. I would wait until the general public can access SP2 "officially" before updating it. I spoke with some pals at MS and they advised me not to install it just yet... just passin along the info. Use your best judgement... its your system!!!
  3. GB, Try this app..... http://www.kixscripts.com/ Depending on what you are wanting to accomplish, this will most likely help you right out. Cbay
  4. I am going to go out on a limb here but if you have your NICs set to Auto Detect or Auto Select/ Hardware Default, you are only going to go as fast as the Hub/Switch device is set to by default. I would set all the NICs manually to 100MB/Full Duplex and if you can.. set the switch ports to the same speeds You did mention that you are in Full Duplex, but neglected to mention the speed setting. I would hate to assume such a thing.
  5. Ok so you have your router issuing DHCP addresses, cool. You may want to give this machine a Static IP address and configure the ports it uses to get out manually on the Router. I have the same setup on my network but have not encountered the same issue you are with the Outgoing Net traffic in that regard. You may try another method.. again issue one of the machines a static IP, Drop that IP /Machine into the DMZ on your router. Ensure you have a personal firewall installed and configured properly and give that method a go. Granted the latter is a last resort option, but it will work without fail.

  6. Just to add a twist to CH's delimma-- does anyone know how to make the desktop icons transparent to the wallpaper as the fresh installed version of XP does? Would rather them be transparent than spend time trying to match the background colors of the desktop to the wall paper. Could make a dude go mad if I did not have a life outside of the PCs.. lol. Thanks gang!!
  7. Whats your status on this issue?
  8. Take a look here: http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=msnm
  9. You may get it to work without "upping your OS" to SE... but then it may not work properly either. If the option is availible.. I would up to Windows XP and call it a day, bro.
  10. try this link... http://www.dougknox.com/ go to Utilities. there is a link to dowload a vb script... Find Product CD Key Win9x-ME. Should get you going with all the tools. I would then jot that info down and slap it inside the case of the machine you are workin on.. so you know its there when you mate feels the need to reinstall 98 again. Cheers. CB
  11. are you using the correct username (login) and password? Is your workstation (PC with this problem) managed or locked down to prevent this application from running ? Do you have an account for which to add the login information? Is it active? Can you login to hotmail from the same PC and not MSN Messenger? Throw a bone here, we need the info!!!
  12. try this: http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/1153/ Windows maintains a cached copy of all the icons on the system to avoid having to reload the icons every time they are displayed. If this icon cache becomes corrupt then the wrong icons may be shown. To clear the icons cache make sure you can view hidden files and then open your Windows directory in Explorer and delete the file called "ShellIconCache". When you restart Windows the icon cache file will be automatically recreated.
  13. You can also use a pure boot manager to go between os' I would suggest www.osloader.com or http://www.v-com.com/product/pc8_ind.html
  14. Why not get your camera, get a USB media card reader transfer your image files that way from camera to PC and call it a day?
  15. You may try looking either in the root of C: or in C:\Windows for a folder WIN98. From there you can run setup again. OR you can boot to a dos prompt.. goto C:\windows\options\cabs\setup.exe and install from there. What I would suggest before you do that .. is that you locate the product id from the registry first. Technically, since you are reinstalling over itself.. you should not be asked for it but you may be.
