Oh this is just ripe.... first, it's my system, I'm the sysadmin, I have the power to install, uninstall, reboot, you name it. So, I go to remove Symantec, and Symantec requires a PASSWORD to remove it.  
Unbelievable.

Ask Symantec 
I had a DELL that wouldn't boot because of a weird interaction between the SATA DVD-+RW device and SAV, so I had to look in the Symantec knowledge base to work out a way around this.
You need Recovery Console to do this, and you may find listing the state of the drivers and services *first* is a good idea [hint]

Symantec Antivirus is very inefficient and I see it has a lot of memory leaks. As the system boots and once you logon, you can not do anything for at least 15 minutes till the Antivirus finishes its startup scan activities.

Well, setting aside this fact that the enterprise edition has issues, apparently, the people that installed it don't remember the installation password. I don't need it, I don't want it, go away
The part that annoys me the most, is they admins have been told this box is special, no touchie. they didn't listen

Hi,
When we open a Word document as a link in a secure (https://) area of our website, we get a "Choose a digital certificate" window which pops up when i try to open the Word document. The message says "The Website you want to view requests identification. Please choose a certificate." However, there are no certificates listed in the window below the message. The certificate is not expired. I only get the error on Word documents (not PDF or Excel documents) and it only happens the first time you click on a link. If I reopen a Word document which just gave me an error, I will not receive the error the second time around. Our browser security is set to Medium and I did add our secure website to the Trusted Sites. Pls sort out this issue.
Regards
Vijay.

There is an option, I guess, like 'Require Client Certificates'. I think that is selected for the virtual directory/website right?

With the client version of you can use the PCLI tool that ships with the workstation version of PVCS. I don't know if that works with the web version.

Hi,
I have a problem concerning the startup on a embedded XP system.
It seems the services needed are not yet started before my application runs.
The application needs the services and is placed in the startupfolder, so i thougth all services were started then..
Anyone any idea how i could solve this problem?
if i can hold the application from starting until all services are started then this should do.
Thx in advance.

You could query the status of the services you require, and see if they have started. If you can modify the application, this is probably easiest...

you're probably right... the app already checks for the services, but only ones and gives an message when they are'nt active on startup. So i guess i have to buildin a timeout and poll for the services.
Could we have a situation that the service process is active (see it in task manager) but not started up completely? if yes, i guess then i have to check if the service is in state started or so.
Thx for the response.

Yes you could. The service might also be paused, or stopping, and the process would still be there...

Its no virus. There's a small bar between the web page being viewed and the bottom of the Address bar, or whatever toolbar is lowest. Grab that bar and drag it down as far a it will go. You'll find your Menu Bar behind one of the other toolbars.

Hi, I'm suing QuickBook 2004 for record my business transaction. Now my quick book file reach 40MB since I used for one and a half year. As far as I know Microsoft access has a litmit file size to 2Gb and it won't run if the size keep in crease above 2Gb.
From here I have a question that does QuickBook 2004 limit its file size or not? If its limit its file size, what is the size that it limited?
Thank in advance!

Depends on whether the application was written to be large file aware or not. Many apps can't deal with files bigger than 2GB because they use absolute positioning (API: SetFilePointer) and never supply a high-order DWORD, so limit to 2GB implicitly. Without seeing the source code (which is, let's face it, unlikely) it is hard to tell.

Hi,
I have the following issue:
For an experiment I want to redirect requests from a device to a specific web address to a different system.
It concerns an embedded device that can connect to a number of websites, and for one of them I do want to redirect the traffic to a different server.
As it is an embedded device I cannot change the address or make local adaptations.
E.g. just adding the name of the website to the hosts file is not an option.
Anyone a clue on how this is easily achieved?
For now I have considered the following alternatives:
- run my own DNS server, tell the device to use that one and redirect that website to a different IP address and all other addresses to the "real" dns server. Not really sure if this is possible though (since I might have to serve the complete zone, instead of just redefining the one adddress).
- use modified Socks based proxy for this. Not too sure if I can find sources for this and not too sure if this will work as I am already behind a proxy.
- maybe trick my router (linksys wrt54g) into doing something (not really preferred as I would like a generic solution).
If you have suggestions on what would be the easiest (or see other simpler approaches) please let me know.
Thanks alot, Frans.
PS: this might be off-limits for this forum, but if there is a very simple linux-based solution that is definitely something I'd like to consider.

Found a solution inbetween.
I just set up posadis on a PC.
Posadis is an open source DNS server.
One can simply configure it as a caching DNS server (which just means it redirects DNS requests to another server and caches the results for later usage.
However with posadis it is possible to preload the cache. The original idea is that you could redirect addresses that you do not want to other addresses (e.g. 127.0.0.1). (so a form of blacklisting).
This could also be used to whitelist an address and specify its IP address upfront, which was exactly what I needed.
I installed this on a PC, configured the embedded device to use the DNS server running on the PC and all was set. Only thing I did not manage was to use this in combination with a proxy (as in that case the device immediately sent all its traffic to the proxy).
That was no big deal for me though.
