Temporary Internet Files by Jay
When I try to print a web site image to an Adobe PDF file, Vista states that for security purposes the pdf file will be placed in a "virtual" temporary internet file folder, then opens the virtual folder on C drive, but then doesn't save the file in the folder.

Disable open file security warning for specific files by strker250
Hi I've been trying to find a way to disable the "Open File - Security Warning" for a specific file. Preferably via local group policies. Is there a way to do this for specific files and not just file extensions? Or can Vista only disable it for file extensions? Thanks in advance.

Unable to delete AVG by JackiMcK
I've tried everything. AVG doesn't show up under programmes, McAfee sent me a link that is supposed to delete AVG, I can't download McAfee as it says it is conflicting with AVG. We tried searching for hidden files, it doesn't even show up in my security icon. So how do we get rid of it? -- JackiMcK

Bypassing BitLocker in TPM-only (basic) mode...? by groffg[_3_]
Anyone had any experience bypassing BitLocker (basic mode) using the recovery console (i.e., booting to the Windows DVD or rescue CD)? Based on the documentation, seems like it would work (provided BIOS is configured to boot to CD/DVD drive before the HDD). Having said that, would M$ allow such an obvious attack vector? I don't have a machine w/ a TPM right now, so I can't test this myself....
