Came across this tool/tip that may come in handy if ever working on a permissions problem.
Fortunately one of the customers who had this problem contacted us with a solution that worked for them, and I wanted to list it here in case others run into this same problem in the future. Here are the steps to follow to repair permissions to workaround this issue:1. Download the SubInACL tool from this MS Site and install it. By default it will install to c:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools
2. Go to the Start menu, choose Run and type cmd
3. Type cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Windows Resource Kits\Tools to change directories to the folder that SubInACL is installed to
4. Type notepad reset.cmd and press yes to create a new file named reset.cmd in c:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools
5. Copy and paste the following contents into reset.cmd and then save and close it (or download it from here and rename it from reset.cmd.txt to reset.cmd):
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=system=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=system=f
6. Type reset.cmd and press enter to run the SubInACL tool (you will need to have adminstrator privileges for this to run correctly). This tool will take several minutes to run

You may want to have a look at Secure Login which is a Firefox addon similar to the Wand in Opera.
Don't know if it enhances security or what not but it saves me filling in login details if needed.

1. Particle Accelerators
Physicists have long theorized that particle accelerators could destroy the earth. When electric fields are used to accelerate protons they could collide at speed fast enough to create black holes or bits of altered matter. These small black holes would slowly engulf our planet. The pieces of altered matter, called strangeletes, would destroy any ordinary matter they came in contact with, eventually annihilating the entire planet. Although most scientists assure that none of the particle accelerators being used at the present are strong enough to bring about these events they are unsure of the abilities of the newest accelerator being built. Currently, over two-thousand physicists from thirty-four countries, universities and laboratories are aiding in the construction of The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) located near Geneva, Switzerland. It is scheduled to begin experimentation in May 2008. It is hoped that if black holes are produced they will be small enough to evaporate, but only time will tell.

Where's the coldest spot in the universe? Not on the moon, where the temperature plunges to a mere minus 378 Fahrenheit. Not even in deepest outer space, which has an estimated background temperature of about minus 455?F. As far as scientists can tell, the lowest temperatures ever attained were recently observed right here on earth.
The record-breaking lows were among the latest feats of ultracold physics, the laboratory study of matter at temperatures so mind-bogglingly frigid that atoms and even light itself behave in highly unusual ways. Electrical resistance in some elements disappears below about minus 440?F, a phenomenon called superconductivity. At even lower temperatures, some liquefied gases become "superfluids" capable of oozing through walls solid enough to hold any other sort of liquid; they even seem to defy gravity as they creep up, over and out of their containers.Physicists acknowledge they can never reach the coldest conceivable temperature, known as absolute zero and long ago calculated to be minus 459.67?F. To physicists, temperature is a measure of how fast atoms are moving, a reflection of their energy?and absolute zero is the point at which there is absolutely no heat energy remaining to be extracted from a substance.
The speed of light, as we've all heard, is a constant: 186,171 miles per second in a vacuum. But it is different in the real world, outside a vacuum; for instance, light not only bends but also slows ever so slightly when it passes through glass or water. Still, that's nothing compared with what happens when Hau shines a laser beam of light into a BEC: it's like hurling a baseball into a pillow. "First, we got the speed down to that of a bicycle," Hau says. "Now it's at a crawl, and we can actually stop it?keep light bottled up entirely inside the BEC, look at it, play with it and then release it when we're ready."

Hi
Thanks for the link. I downloaded it to give it a try.
When the program alerts you to a new mail, how do you go about deleteing it via palmail? I clicked on the "mark for deleteing/unmark" and nothing happened. I was still able to download it via my email client..
Have I missed something obvious or am I expecting to much of this program?
Right click each unwanted email and mark for deletion and then hit the yellow telephone in the toolbar below file, top left of the gui.
Hitting the yellow telephone makes Palmail recheck the servers end and deleting any emails marked as such.
If there's a group of emails that need to be highlighted/marked for deletion you can left or right click in an empty space and drag the cursor.

Blimey, he is way beyond good!
Stolen from one of the comments:
Pachelbel's Canon (also known as Canon in D major, or, more formally, Canon and Gigue in D major for three Violins and Basso Continuo (Kanon und Gigue in D-Dur f?r drei Violinen und Basso Continuo)) is the most famous piece of music by Johann Pachelbel. It was written in or around 1680, during the Baroque period, as a piece of chamber music for three violins and basso continuo, but has since been arranged for a wide variety of ensembles. -
Exceptionally well done YoKenny!
On a more important note - bet ya I can drink more beer than you can.

Congrats on finishing the test. Your score: 32
Leave the IT department immediately in case you're contagious. Go to Men's Wearhouse. Buy a suit and apply for a job in marketing.

I use an app that can show all and delete selected emails waiting to come through from my server.
Been using Palmail for ages now but there are similar apps around.
Palmail hasn't been developed for a while but it works fine on XP, Vista and server 2003 and is a standalone.

Haven't tried this myself as I rely on other types of virtual apps and I think this is a type of ISR (instant system recovery) and to be honest not really needed here.
System crashes, file corruptions, virus infections?could take hours to days to repair. EAZ-FIX eliminates the hassles and headaches of troubleshooting common PC problems by instantly returning the PC to hours or days before the onset of the problems.Don?t waste your time troubleshooting PC problems, instant undo your PC problems with EAZ-FIX!

Found the below on the net where some say it worked for them but not for others.
Fix MSN messenger login error 800B0001 or 81000306
Solutions to fix it;
start/run type or copy and paste: hit enter after entering each line
regsvr32 Softpub.dll
regsvr32 Mssip32.dll
regsvr32 Initpki.dll (this one took about 30 sec to be complete.)
Some of the comments at the link are a bit of a laugh.
If still no joy you could try rolling back the netgear driver.

Does anyone remember the fiasco over the face on mars? And when they got a high resolution shot of it the conspiracy nutters even tried to suggest NASA had faked the new photo lol
Yep, I can remember the face and the supposed pyramids.
There is a youtube vid where former nasa workers state they were employed to air brush pics that had unusual objects.

Just shows how easily the brain can wrongly interpret shapes.
Plus they've missed a bigger scoop, there's two of them - look closely at the second picture where they have circled 'her' and to the right hand side of the pic you'll see a bloke walking towards her carrying something
Ah yes, I think I can see it now JD.
She might be motioning to him to stay away, she doesn't want that something!

Better late than never.
The security firm Finjan says it has discovered a major new type of malware that has infected more than 10,000 Web sites in December alone. Deemed "random js toolkit," it is a Trojan that infects end users' PCs and sends data from the infected machine to the "master" hacker. It can be used to steal passwords, documents and other sensitive information.The malware dynamically creates and changes JavaScript code every time it is accessed, Finjan said. Thus, traditional anti-malware programs can't identify it.

Perched on a rock, she could be waiting for a bus.
But if so, she could be in for an awfully long wait.
This photo of what looks remarkably like a female figure with her arm outstretched, was taken on Mars.
Others may well feel that it is simply an optical illusion caused by a landscape.

Below is a list of some funny tales submitted by doctors.
1. A man comes into the ER and yells, "My wife's going to have her baby in the cab!" I grabbed my stuff, rushed out to the cab, lifted the lady's dress, and began to take off her underwear. Suddenly I noticed that there were several cabs -and I was in the wrong one.

2. At the beginning of my shift I placed a stethoscope on an elderly and slightly deaf female patient's anterior chest wall. "Big breaths," I instructed. "Yes, they used to be," replied the patient.

3. One day I had to be the bearer of bad news when I told a wife that her husband had died of a massive myocardial infarct. Not more than five minutes later, I heard her reporting to the rest of the family that he had died of a "massive internal fart."
Submitted by! Dr. Susan Steinberg
4. During a patient's two week follow-up appointment with his cardiologist, he informed me, his doctor, that he was having trouble with one of his medications. "Which one? " I asked. "The patch. The nurse told me to put on a new one every six ours and now I'm running out of places to put It!" I had him quickly undress and discovered what I hoped I wouldn't see. Yes, the man had over fifty patches on his body! Now, the instructions include removal of the old patch before applying a new one.

5. While acquainting myself with a new elderly patient, I asked, "How long have you been bedridden?" After a look of complete confusion She answered..."Why, not for about twenty years - when my husband was alive."
Submitted by Dr. Steven Swanson
6. I was caring for a woman and asked, "So how's your breakfast this morning?" "It's very good, except for the Kentucky Jelly. I can't seem to get used to the taste," the patient replied. I then asked to see the jelly and the woman produced a foil packet labeled "KY Jelly."
Submitted by Dr. Leonard Kransdorf
7. A nurse was on duty in the Emergency Room, when a young woman with purple hair styled into a punk rocker Mohawk, sporting a variety of tattoos, and wearing strange clothing, entered. It was quickly determined that the patient had acute appendicitis, so she was scheduled for immediate surgery. When she was completely disrobed on the operating table, the staff noticed that her pubic hair had been dyed green, and above it there was a tattoo that read, "Keep off the grass." Once the surgery was completed, the surgeon wrote a short note on the patient's dressing, which said, "Sorry, had to mow the lawn."

8. As a new, young MD doing his residency in OB, I was quite embarrassed when performing female pelvic exams To cover my embarrassment I had unconsciously formed a habit of whistling softly. The middle-aged lady upon whom I was performing this exam suddenly burst out laughing and further embarrassing me. I looked up from my work and sheepishly said, "I'm sorry. Was I tickling you?"
She replied, "No doctor, but the song you were whistling was, 'I wish I was an Oscar MeyerWiener'!".

Received a gift of a Sandisk 4 gig thumb drive for some computer work.
I have played around with virtual hard drives/ MS virtual PC 2007 so I copied/pasted a folder containing a slimmed down XP Pro 2 gig vhd to the thumb drive and assigned a new vm to it and it's working fine.
So in effect I have my own sorta like "Mojopak" that I can run off any pc that has a vm player installed.
Things aren't as quick as running from the hard drive but is quite usable and am posting from within XP running on the usb atm.
