Hi. I'm trying to connect to a remote computer in C++, using `IWbemLocator::ConnectServer` method. The hosting process has no permissions to connect, but the current thread is impersonated to a powerful user. The call fails (error code is 0x80070005). In the Security Event Log of the remote machine I can find the authentication request, and the username is the process' user (not the impersonatd user). I've tried to create a new process (Using CreateProcessAsUser), and then all works. It's not good enough because I must do it in the current process. It looks like the problem is in the underlying DCOM layer. Can someone help?

i have a similar problem. i have administrator privelleges and still get access denied. help please? thanks in advance

Is there a way to set Vista to not auto-sort an opened folder. For example, if I have My Documents open and I add files, I don't want it to automatically refresh/auto-sort until I tell it to. I want it to behave like XP. Back in the good 'ol days, the new files would stay at the bottom until I either choose refresh or I choose to re-sort or I close and open the folder.

Hello, I installed XP SP3. I understand the issue behind the loss of the Address bar. However, the service pack installation removed all my toolbars: the quick launch and the custom one I created. I added them back only to have them dumped again.
