I am losing icons in my systray in XP Home - and it isn't just the icons 
 
being hidden - they aren't in either the hidden or the revealed view. 
 
This is happening shortly after logging in - the process they relate to 
 
(Mailwasher.exe) is still running but I have no way of using it - if I 
 
use a quicklaunch icon it tells the process is already running. 
 
Any advice welcome.

I have a normal XP Home running on my system and would like to set a low 
 
battery warning in power options. 
 
In Help, it says I should have an alarm tab but none is there. Can someone 
 
help me with a solution to this please? Is there a windows tool I need to 
 
load to access this tab? 
 
Thank you very much

I have been told that only a few items need to be checked in START UP. 
 
That is when you select RUN,type in MSCONFIG and go to the start up 
 
items. 
 
I need this information because my screensavers keep turning themselves 
 
on and off 
 
with no mouse movement.I am told this happens because something is 
 
running in the 
 
backround and causing this.Can someone help? 
 
thank you

I tried this question in alt.os.windows-xp but, it seems the kooks currently 
 
have a hold. 
 
Currently, every time I get a security updates for a spyware program, I open 
 
every account and run it to update  security. Is there a way to do it all 
 
from the Administrator account? 
 
The other information that seems to be essential is that the other users are 
 
not logged on at the time.

I would like the names/adresses of some reliable anti-spam programs suitable 
 
for XP home edition. 
 
Thanks.

I did a clean install after reformating my existing WinXPHomeSP2. Since 
 
there were no hardware updgrades I tried the workaround - copied the old 
 
wpa.dbl to a floppy , then copied it to System32 in safe mode after renaming 
 
the new one wpa.new. But I kept getting the message to activate. When I 
 
copied the file it was 14kb, but when I looked at it after reboot, it was 
 
only 6kb. So did the original 14kb file get replaced when I rebooted? 
 
Anyway, I moved the 'wpabln' file from Syste ...

New XP Computers. Old W98 and W2000 computers with complex directory 
 
structure developed over years in Windows Explorer. 
 
Question: Is there any way to save and recreate that structure in XP 
 
without having to reenter it the hard way? The goal would be to have the 
 
structure on the XP Windows Explorer, then feed the saved data files 
 
back into it from the backed up files on CD. 
 
Thanks!

Hello, 
 
I've got a hard disk formatted with 2 partitions, C: and E: (D: is the 
 
DVD drive). I want to put my data on E:, with just programs and system 
 
stuff on C:. I got my 'My Documents' folder pointed to E: without 
 
problems, but how do I get Win XP to put the 'Shared Documents' folder 
 
there as well?

Thanks,

I have been trying to obtain SP2 for several days now.  I pulled a system 
 
list and I don't even have SP1 or SP1a it appears.  When I go to download the 
 
SPs I ended you and Microsoft Update and downloading what seems to be the 
 
security item over and over again.  I don't get the optain of selecting 
 
something other than this security update.  I am running version 2002 with 
 
apparently no service packs.  Is there so other way, short of buying it that 
 
can get my OS to get the SPs. 
 
Thanks

My computer has been running slower and slower, because it has lots ofviruses 
 
and spyware on it.  I have tried so many siffernet antivirus softwares from 
 
online, and nothng helps my problem. The same thing happened to our old 
 
family computer, and in the end, once you atrted it up, ti froze, and you had 
 
to start it up again. My mom brought in a guy from her work to fix it, and it 
 
he completely rebboted the computer.  He svd everything to disks, and he 
 
started the entire computer ...

probably a really simple question for you all....when i go to switch users 
 
through the 'log off' option in the start menu, no 'switch user' icon appears 
 
as an option.  The only option that is presented is to log-off.....????.... 
 
any tips???

Arrange by name. 
 
Recycle is first. 
 
Then other files in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop 
 
Then files in C:\Documents and Settings\Sandy\Desktop. These are in 
 
correct alphabetical order on the desktop. 
 
Why is Recycle first?
