damned if I know. this all started after a format: c to fix a corrupt pagefile.

1. Dogs are never permitted in the house. The dog stays outside in a specially built wooden compartment named, for very good reason, the dog house. 2. Okay, the dog can enter the house, but only for short visits or if his own house is under renovation. 3. Okay, the dog can stay in the house on a permanent basis, provided his dog house can be sold in a yard sale to a rookie dog owner. 4. Inside the house, the dog is not allowed to run free and is confined to a comfortable but secure metal cage. 5. Okay, the cage becomes part of a two-for-one deal along with the dog house in the yard sale, and the dog can go wherever he pleases. 6. The dog is never allowed on the furniture. 7. Okay, the dog can get on the old furniture but not the new furniture. 8. Okay, the dog can get up on the new furniture until it looks like the old furniture and then we'll sell the whole works and buy new furniture...upon which the dog will most definitely not be allowed. 9. The dog never sleeps on the bed. Period. 10. Okay, the dog can sleep at the foot of the bed. 11. Okay, the dog can sleep alongside you, but he's not allowed under the covers. 12. Okay, the dog can sleep under the covers but not with his head on the pillow. 13. Okay, the dog can sleep alongside you under the covers with his head on the pillow, but if he snores he's got to leave the room. 14. Okay, the dog can sleep and snore and have nightmares in bed, but he's not to come in and sleep on the couch in the TV room, where I'm now sleeping. That's just not fair. 15. The dog never gets listed on the census questionnaire as "primary resident," even if it's true.

Ya, that's what I figured. Best advice from the mvp's so far: reinstall everything. That sound you hear is the reason I didn't get voice-recognition software: By the time I'm talking out loud to my computer, I'm using language I don't want it to learn.

asklepios: I have that problem at all sites. i haven't been to any ftp's via IE. Will try it, though. msnwar: No, I wasn't configuring user permissions. I checked, and afaik, I haven't disabled my permission to log on. btw: exactly where in the console tree are user permissions? local scurity policy? Still no word from the newsgroups. p***ants! Again, thanks for the advice. to all

1. Yes. 2. I did reinstall SP1, plus every post-SP1 hotfix. That's why I posted. Nothing I could think of works. aaaaaagggghhhh!!!! (I also posted to an MS newsgroup. Will let you know if I get any results.) Thanks for trying.

As soon as I'm logged on to my ISP, Internet Explorer turns into Windows Explorer: The page icon becomes that from explorer.exe, if I have a few pages open, my taskbar groupig lists them as "<X> windows explorer windows open", downloads appear in a windows folder icon, and task manager lists explorer.exe, not iexplore.exe. I've tried reinstalling windows XP Pro. Didn't work. I tried resetting the default "open" value for html-files to ie6 (which it was, anyway). Also didn't work. I'm also getting "No internet connection available" messages, which is also not so. Is this a corrupt registry item, corrupt .dll, or screwed-up service or protocol?

mine would be, "has a brain, a sense of humor, and knows better than to give me grief." actually, that prayer was answered 10 years ago. Except the last bit. But he's learning. And gives as good as he gets.

Since when in any discussion does the entire thread make sense?

to be followed immediately by "needle of the week."

The results are in. You are certifiably: 31% b***h! which is lower than the worldwide average 38%

And THANK YOU so much for your help. :flowers:

Dumb & Dumber

Or: Why Johnny Can't Read

1. Yes 2. Yes 3. So do I. Reformatted, reinstalled. Got another stop code from quickview7+. Uninstalled that puppy fast and did a system restore. Appwiz.cpl form sp1 is again giving me parser errors, so I opened a dos window at D: and expanded the pre-sp1 version to my root drive. That works, so... Also: Whatever was slowing down the loading of Kerio, NAV and all network-related crapola is G-O-N-E. And yur guess is as good as mine.

According to that test, I'm freakin' HARMLESS! (says she in utter disgust.)

Just my style!

Thanks, guys. Spent 1/2 the day grouching about having to reformat. Then, I flipped it: I CAN DO THIS! Now, backing up everything to CD. Later.

format as in "wipe out everything"? if that's the only cure... How do you format C:\ on a laptop?

it's my laptop. what about extracting pagefile.sys from the cd? would that work? Or deleting pagefile at shutdown? Thanks for the info.

I know what a debit is. What's a cebit?

Someone please translate the below so I know where to look to stop the bsod I've been getting from (among others) charmap.exe.
