Confirmed! Downgrade to 6.3.0.0 and the problem is gone! Thanks to your research we have a temporary solution. We will have to wait and see if serv-u will pick up on this bug in a future version. After all it was 6.3.0.1 that broke the application log. Serv-U has been notified.

Just tried your solution and it worked. I'm going to try downgrading version by version because I know this issue is only recent. If I'm not mistaken the previous version 6.3.0.0 didnt have this problem. I'll let you know. Serv-U should know about this.

Wow! Say no more. Serv-U is installed on both the machines in question. The version installed is 6.3.0.1.

I have this problem on two different machines with Enterprise R2. It only happens with the application log. If you delete the log as per microsoft and its recreated the error comes back. It appears to be a problem with MMC 3.0. If you ignore the error you cannot see the entries in the log but they "ARE" there. Try double-clicking in the results area you'll see what I'm talking about. Can anyone else confirm this? And has anyone found a solution?

Maybe you could recommend something to our friend? Personally, I have been using, recommending, and providing symantec corporate AV solutions to clients for years. I have yet never seen or heard any of my clients catching a virus. Myself included. Symantec AV does hog resources no doubt. I disagree on the detection rate. I believe it is just as good as any other AV solution. However I will say that symantec AV is terrible at cleaning a computer once it is infected and found that using a free version such as AVG does a better job. If you use symantec AV, make sure you schedule "daily" updates because by default its once a week. Stay away from norton internet security if you value resources! My 2 cents.

Glad to help.

Ok, Go Here and download Ad-Aware SE Personal. If that doesnt pickup anything then try SpyBot Here

Dont mean to scare you but that looks like a virus or spyware to me. Filenames that look like that are randomly generated to hide their existance. You could right click the file and goto properties and see if it has a version tab. If it does then it may reveal a company name in there somewhere. Let us know what you find.

Let me elaborate a little bit more, Before Windows XP and IE6 when downloading a file you were presented with 4 buttons instead of three. They were: Open, Save, Save As, Cancel. When setting NoSelectDownloadDir in the registry. the "Save" button would save the download to the default value in the "Download Directory" key in the registry and the "Save As" would be disabled. Now in Windows XP with IE6 you cannot use NoSelectDownloadDir as it will disable the "Save" button completly. And now they did away with the extra button. There must be a way to force users to download to lets say their "My Documents" folder dont you think?

Ok, How can you force a user to only download to a specific directory? The user would be prompted to save but only to a predetermined directory and nowhere else. You can set the default download directory for IE in the registry but the user can just select another directory. So how is this done? Thanks

Ok, sorry to everyone. I was wrong. I was confused between xcopy and reg adds. There shouldnt be any spaces in the path for reg adds. But when copying files it is ok using quotes. Again I was confused. We do learn from our mistakes. I was only trying to help. Topic closed! lol

Look at this line of code: REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 1 /D "\"%PP%\AVG Anti Virus Program\autoavgsetup.exe\"" /F This is how it should be written: REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 1 /D "%PP%\AVG Anti Virus Program\autoavgsetup.exe" /F Take note of the differences. Also look here: SET "PP=%CDROM%\Software" Try writing it this way: SET "PP=%CDROM%\Software\" Or forget about the variable and just write out the fuul path to the software folder. Try to keep it simple just to get it working then add stuff to your code AFTER testing it. You can create a test batch file to do a file copy or something like that. That way you dont have to keep doing installs to test your code. Once you get it working then use it in your all in one. Good luck

TD, You misunderstood my post. I suggest you read it again where it says: And this: is explaining what path his original script is looking for with his variable.

Its the same banner as always. I found a way to uninstall the tool if it gets accidentaly installed as in my case. 1. Get WGA Fix and run it. 2. Reboot 3. Find and remove WgaLogon.dll and WgaTray.exe 4. Hide the notification tool from windows update. 5. Finished

Look at your "SET PP=%cdrom%\Software" variable. Then look at: REG ADD %KEY%\011 /V 1 /D "%PP%Software\Windows MediaPlayer 10 If I were the script it would look like: REG ADD %KEY%\011 /V 1 /D "%PP%Software\Software\Windows MediaPlayer 10 Also here there isnt a \ separating the "%PP%" from "Software". Instead write it like this: REG ADD %KEY%\011 /V 1 /D "%PP%\Windows MediaPlayer 10 Just my quick observation
