Thanks. That sounds like the advice I've been looking for.

Hi,
it's also possible that something with your Update Agent goes wrong.
First you should check the event log and log files for errors:
C:\WINNT\WindowsUpdate.log
C:\WINNT\SoftwareDistribution\ReportingEvents.log
And you could try "resetting" the Update Agent:
1. Disable Automatic Updates
2. Stop the Automatic Updates service
3. Delete all files under C:\WINNT\SoftwareDistribution\*.*
4. (Re-)Start the Automatic Update service
5. (Re-)Enable Automatic Updates
But be warned: This is a dirty hack. Do it at your own risk!

Hi Again:
I'm replying to my own original message. I just wanted to report that the probem was resolved.
Turning "automatic updates off" and selecting instead "Notify me when updates are ready" I was able to note the two update codes that kept going around and around. It was 925672 and KB927978. They relate to MSXML V4.0 SP1. Taking Roger Wright's advice, I checked Add/Remove programs and set it to include updates in the listing. Here, I found that MSXML 4.0 SP1 had two identical entries. I uninstalled both of them and restarted. I then allowed them to be reinstalled when the message appeared saying that those two updates were ready. They installed successfully and it has all been tickety-boo since then.
Thanks all, and Roger in particular.

I have some experience about LAN configurations. But I never done VoIP networks before. Now I have a reqirment to configure a VoIP network with 6 Computers and 6 IP Telephones. I am from out of US. But I need to connect that IP Phones to the US Land Lines. That means if anybody make a call from US we need to answer through that network. Can anybody give me an idea for this?
Thanks

You might want to look into Asterisk (Open Source PBX - Private Branch Exchange), which can do everything you asked for. Digium (the main contributor to Asterisk) also offers commercial support and services for Asterisk installations, as well as hardware that is guaranteed to be working with Asterisk.
Cheers,
Sebastian

hi to all!!
i wanna remove my windows startup password.somebody has kept it in my pc.
i know the password but don't know how to remove windows startup password.

Just goto Control Panel->User Accounts->Your User Name->Remove My Password. From there, you will just have to confirm your current password.
Trinity: Neo... nobody has ever done this before.
Neo: That's why it's going to work.

Do you mean the screen that shows after Windows boots up? If so, you would change the password the same way.

There's no such thing! There is no Windows startup password. It only asks for a user account and password.
If there is a "Startup Password", it's only because there is a third party product installed, such as disk encryption software, that is asking for this. It is not part of Windows.

How about the password that administrator use with SYSKEY utility?
|
|
|
|
|
That password is used to derive an MD5 digest "System Key" which is used to protect the password encryption key. This password cannot be used for any other purpose, especially user login. You cannot "break into" the system using that password, nor can any account, service, application, or lock utility, use it to gain, or restrict, any kind of access to the system. So, it's not really the "Windows Startup Password".

Try ipconfig /all > Result.txt then open the file Result.txt you will find a result in this file. The general form of this command is command > filename.txt

I am accessing a website in IE,using a domain and localsystem account .
With the former account , things are fine;with the 'localsystem' account I get a warning message 'Javascript is not enabled for the website'.
Where can we view/modify user settings for IE.I m using IE6.0/7.0.
|

You already got your answer to this question. You can not modify any settings for a browser running under the LocalSystem account. There's simply nothing to modify. The LocalSystem account doesn't have a profile you can modify.
The only way you can do this is if you create a user account, login with the account, setup youe IE settings, then setup your service to use that account when it starts. The problem with that is you'll lose the Interact With Desktop ability. But, you don't have a choice here...

I want to know the name of the operating system by giving a IP address. How i will do this. Plz any one help me.

There's no reliable way to do that.
For example... If you're talking about only Windows machines, you can try to contact the WMI Service on that machine, IF it'll let you connect to it at all, then ask WMI what the O/S is. Not every machine has a WMI Service running on it though, so it's not a reliable method.
The only other way to even attempt to do this is to probe the ports that the machine has listening and try to analyze the measly pieces of information you get from there. Again, a problem arises because of the multitude of firewalls that are now running on all kinds of machines, blocking the very information you need!
Add into the mix Linux machines, Macs, ...
Basically, what you want to do can't be done...
