The Internet Explorer 8 User-Agent String (Updated Edition)
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 96 views
As announced in February 2008, Internet Explorer 8 sends an updated user-agent string when interacting with web servers. Since we last blogged about the User-Agent string, the Internet Explorer team introduced Compatibility View and today, the Windows team is releasing the Windows 7 Beta. Each of these events has a small impact on the User-Agent string, as I will outline in this post. The Trident/4.0 User-Agent String In order to help users visit sites that block the “MSIE 8.0†user-agent string, IE8 will send the “MSIE 7.0†version information when viewing sites with Compatibility View enabled. As Scott described last August, a new “Trident†token in the U…

Windows XP Services - User Rights
by Guest Correy- 0 replies
- 169 views
Hello, I have a service set to run automatically at startup, but occasionally during updates we send out to our users it needs to be stopped. Normally only regular users login that are part of the Users group, not the Administrators group. It seems like the service(s) can only be stopped if a user is part of the administrators group. So I'm wondering if I can set that particular service to allow the built-in Users group to stop/start it without being an administrator? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Correy
