I want a second computer (which uses XP) to be able to connect to my internet connection. It CAN connect to the wireless network, but cannot see the internet.

I use BitLocker with AD integration on a 2003 sp2 Domain Controller. The BitLocker Recovery Passwords and TPM Owner Passwords are stored successfully in the AD. I installed BitLocker Recovery Password Viewer for Active Directory to read the Recovery Passwords stored in the AD. Is there a similar way to extract the TMP Owner Password? If I try to change the TPM Owner PW on my Vista PC, I have...

I use the Spybot feature that provides an updated Hosts file (with nefarious sites pointing back to the localhost). Windows Defender real time protection keeps notifying me that it has (or wants to) change the Hosts file back to the original. In looking at Defender's options, I only see one way to prevent this action, i.e. to enter the path to the Hosts file into the "Do not scan these...

I'm extremely paranoid about my computer and am looking for a way to set up Windows Vista so that if the windows login password incorrectly more than once it will nuke the HD? Does Vista do anything like that? Or is there another program someone can suggest that has similiar features? Jonathan

Is defender suppose to be always on for protection or is it just for scanning the files at certain times. Every time I click the defender icon it tells me the it is turned off.I have live one care and I want to get my money's worth. Also I think I was the biggest complainer about Vista. I bought another laptop with XP. It didn't take long for me to want the Vista back. Now I am back with...

Hi! I am a Delphi programmer. I've been running Vista for a few weeks and decided to use the ProgramData directory for saving some config files created by my application.

Seems it is not possible to execute this...

I'm running vista home premium and I recieved (at random) an error that said that Windows Defender was offline as was my virus software (Symantec) after checking and confirming that they were in fact both on. I tried to activate them in the security center. Vista could not find Symantec but it did take me to a site that I could download it so I just deactivated it. Every time I tell vista...

I've tried and tried, please I hope you can help me. I have a Toshiba A215-4817 laptop with Vista Home Premium 32bit. My troubles began when my cd/dvd was not operating properly. Toshiba support said my operating system was corrupt. I didn't believe that just because the cd/dvd wasn't working properly that the os is corrupt, maybe they were right. I have extremely important info on my hd as...

I have a Acer notebook. It had Norton security already installed. I removed this recently and put a AVG anti virus on. This seems to be fine. What I am finding is that when I turn on the computer the Firewall is off. I then reset it to on but again it is off on start up. This did not happen when Norton was installed.

I installed Macromedia MX on a Vista PC. The following applications were installed: Flash, Dreamweaver, Freehand, and Fireworks. All of the other programs installed with MX open fine, but Dreamweaver pops up with UAC.

How do I turn off the User account control that causes my computer to keep asking me if I executed the program and if I want to run it, even when the programs were pre-loaded on my comp. It even does it when I try to open McAfee Security Center, and it does it every time. This is really getiing past the annoying point. I want to turn it off and I do not know how, it does not give me an...
