    Of course, my lack of typing ability took over when I attempted to type "...not just seeing it as a..." in my last reply. Gregg -- Gregg's pet peeves: First of all, what does a peeve look like, and why would anyone want one as a pet? Peeve #1: Apostrophes: when in doubt, leave them out! You will be correct more often than not. Its = Belonging to it. For example, "Look at the sky. Its color is blue." It's = It is. For example, "It's hot today." It's = It has. For example, "It's been nice talking to you." Its' = completely incorrect usage. Stop it! Peeve #2: Your vs. You're "Your" means belonging to you, …

    Thanks to all who took the time to respond. I followed Jose's advice and installed and ran the Supenantispyware. i had ran malwarebytes and found nothing. But the Superantispyware detected a lot of stuff in all drives which I deleted and rebooted. Since then I ahve not had any problems. I leave open a lots of programs and IE tabs and still can work without any "not enough resources" message. No need to reboot in the middle of the day. Thanks again to all of you. Webuser

    Hello, I need disable the shutdown option for domain users, but these same users need restart the machine. If I disable by policies the shutdown button, is imposible restart the machine.

    Prevent Bypassing SmartScreen Filter Warnings

    I have configured the GPO's for IE8 to enable the SmartScreen Filter, although I need the users to be able to bypass the warning "There is a problem with this website's security certificate." if they are visiting a known website. I have configured the setting "Prevent Bypassing SmartScreen Filter Warnings" to both Not Configured and Disabled, yet the option to "continue to this website" is still not visiable. I have checked the registry setting that this option is pointing to (HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Phishing Filter) ValueName = PreventOveride This is not appearing in the registry unless I switch it …

    My system keeps getting disk errors on a file : \Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Norton\{0C55C096-0F1D-4F28-AAA2-85EF591126E7}\Norton\SRTSP\LightningSand.CFD (always the same index # 30) I have no idea about where that file comes from. In fact, the file is NOT there just before system shut down.... But it is still in error before booting. It happens once or twice a week... I now don't think the file has anything to do with Norton, but I do not find any viruses with 5 different tools !! Many messages on the web refer to that file as 'locked', which is kind of normal as the directory where is goes is system loc…
