Thanx Euclid,
A very useful warning.
Hi Eculid.
I had a scary problem which made me to reinstall XP. It a **** really. The thing is.... at login screen which asks for password, my keyboard and mouse got struck up. Thats the end. I need to restart. Again the story repeats.... At last i reinstall XP.
Do you have any about the reason.

I dont know for sure but it sounds to me like something happened to your ntoskrnl file. Do you have it set up for a custom boot screen or a custom username / password screen?

Does this "feature" work in other operating systems or only in XP? I guess Gates and company missed this one as part of their "secure computer code" effort...

The more I play with this the more scared I get. Some kiddie can turn this into a VERY nasty massmailer or trojan. This will have a bad end. Ive been experimenting, and Im not going to post some of the OTHER things you can do with this, as it will help the simple minded kiddies into what they will do sooner or later anyway, but I know I can take out remote machines with it....

Doesn't work on 98SE (unpatched) using mozzilla.
Suddenly I don't feel like upgrading to XP
Its not software piracy. I’m just making multiple off site backups.

Great post Euclid, this is the kind of stuff I come here for.
I tried this out on a few browsers on my machine and these are the results.
IE 6 >> Yeah the file is gone, the help support came up about new hardware
Mozilla 1.0 >> Yeah the file is gone, the help support came up about new hardware
Netscape 6.2 >> No the file is still there, help support did come up but with an error "The page you are trying to view has an incorrect address and cannot be displayed. Please try another page"
Opera 6.04 >> No the file is still there, Opera catches it and says "The address type is unkown or unsupported"
Can anyone confirm any of this?
