It's kind of like this... Once you get in there, what are you going to do? I had a freeshell account, but I let it lapse. I mean, I've got all of the Unix boxen I ever need, and I've got them set up for remote access. I've got NetBSD, …

We absolutely do not tolerate piracy on this forum. Any further discussion or hints or downloading pirated copies of Windows will result in closing or deletion of this thread. But, few people know there is a legal way to download Windows isos-- get an MSDN subscription. Sure, it costs about …

Like Mastadex asked, did you recently change your fonts/appearance in your desktop settings? This happened to my wife's system once when she was tweaking her settings. Certain font sets don't have apostrophes ('), so instead of displaying an apostrophe, you'd come up with a  .

Try sticking in your Windows installation disc and then type [b]sfc /scannow[/b] It might be able to get systray back for you.

Nope, it will just ask you to re-register. I've done it before. But, back to the question that dlh6213 asked: Is this a secondary hard drive (ie, one just to keep stuff on), or are you making it the system drive? If it's just secondary, there's no need to reinstall …

Yeah, you should be able to-- just be sure to set the jumpers correctly. The motherboard should recognize it. Also, if you're talking about being able to boot Windows or whatever OS, you might even be able to do that, if the system can detect changes in the hardware.

Also, if you're browsing through our Security forum, some HJT logs are detected as containing malicious scripts sometimes, as the text will have URLs embedded in them. If McAfee will allow you to proceed, then it's cool, and the messages can be disregarded if you've performed Catweazle's suggestions.

What type of motherboard do you have? Will your board even support PC3500? For most people, I'd only recommend running PC3500 if you're doing over clocking, or if you're running a newer P4 or something similar. Your sound issue might be memory-related , but I'd look for driver updates for …

You should be in good shape, power-wise. I'm running 6 hard drives on an old P100 box with a 250w Power supply, and it keeps on chugging. But, if your motherboard does not support more than 130GB, that might be an issue. I'd check for a BIOS flash or something, …

What's the exact DNS error message you're getting? A lot of times, DNS errors just happen because you cannot contact a DNS server, while it may be related to spyware, it's often not. Are you having any other issues?

Linux/BSD running sendmail or postfix work great. If the box isn't going to see much action, you could install that on a very low-end box, and be in pretty good shape.

Try doing a search for "reformat" in the forum here. I recall having posted instructions several times in the past couple of weeks on how to do this. Additional suggestons for searching would be "erase" or "reinstall"

The only way you could "password protect" a file is to put it into a zip/RAR type archive, and add a password to it. But, that's not very useful if you want to use the files all of the time. A better solution would be to look at implementing file …

Just because you're running Windows XP doesn't mean you can't be on FAT32. FAT32 would go a long way explaining what you're experiencing. Ages ago, was it on this system?

If you installed the program in 98, it's going to be tough to have it run in XP. Reason being, you have to install certain files into XP's registry in order for things to work right. More than likely, that's what's going on here. What error are you getting?
