No Domain Guests is empty except a local guest account that is disabled.

As for the error I assume it is because some how everything is deleted or missing from the windows folder hence the bsod...

It's a generic 0xf4 (google says check hardware) which it isn't hardware because it happens on whatever machine he is logged into (some being Virtual Box installs.

I was thinking the same thing...

Well this has been happening to a co-worker for about 2 years. It happens with XP, Vista, and Win 7.

While he is in the middle of doing things machine would blue screen then reboot. Upon...

There is a little program called chntpwd. It allows you to change the admin password without actually knowing what it is for Windows NT, 2000, and XP. In case you forgot your password.

There is an easier safe way to do it if it isn't too late.

I didn't realize you lived in Syria. Get a job at the ISP. I am quite sure their admins don't block themeselves.

Mcnur good for you. If you really weren't doing anything cept xferring your files then I don't see why they would care. You must have what I call a Network Nazi for an admin. The students that do it...

More than likely she said no IP connectivity. Anyways it sounds like the settings on the printer got changed. Seen it many time especially on HP Jet Directs. They never seem to know that there is an...

nothing a can of raid can't take care :)

Good article

Is this a home computer or one at work? Either way I would simply disconnect the system from the network and "clean" it. If you really must get the password then run a packet sniffer watching that...

Goto google and search for other "free proxy" and follow the directions. They are more than likely using a transparent proxy (go into you internet settings and check your proxy info. If there are...

Email would have blocked you? That doesn't make sense. How does one get blocked by email?

Problemchild... I have dealt with squid for awhile. How do you know it is the proxy? Have you looked at your logs? What happens when you stop squid?

RTFM

Hehe Dice took the words right out of my mouth...

Goto command prompt and type: echo %WINDIR% or %SYSTEMROOT%

Quite frankly I don't thinks so.... If the internal network is connected to the net then how did you bypass the switch?

Please only maxim_86ualb2 answer this one :)

I think everyone that wants to help him take a second look. I am an admin for a school. Our policy states no unauthorized equipment is to be plugged into our network. Although I don't volunteer the...

I would never use the auto update feature. You never know exactly what it is updating and with my experience with MS's rollback feature. Lets just say "format c:\".

Thanks for all the replies. I agree with the reasons to block it but IMHO it really doesn't matter if your a normal home user. Our enterprise does block it but when I am at home playing my video...

A fellow worker and myself are having a debate over whether it is good or bad to allow ICMP echo requests (pings).

I can see blocking them to stop or prevent DDOS but other than that what...

I had the same problem but with the addition of Kazaa...

I posted a FAQ on Tek-Tips.com on how to block them from a server but not through the router. I am pasting it here in case it helps:

Thanks guys... I couldn't find any documentation on it. I was thinking along the lines of what chsh said but I wanted to be sure. I guess I assumed that the makers of Tiger would have assumed that...

I ran a security Audit on my RH 7 server and it found problems with my /etc/passwd file.

It says the accounts are disabled but still have valid shells. If it was one or 2 I would just fix it but...

Thats as dumb as not being able to prosecute a car thief because you left the doors unlocked and the car running in the parking lot. I could always say I "found the car" and since it was running and...
