From my understanding of being "fired" from IS, the removal of access is concurrent with the subject being escorted out the door. The reason for this is that it is far to simple to create login access as an admin then to use your own, especially if you are a sysadmin/network admin. My...

by internet access, do you mean running a browser or simply unable to ping or be pinged from the affected system? If is is merely internet access, Remove on the computer that is having the problem the updated sp for the browser and reinstall it. If you can not ping or be pinged from the...

Can anyone tell me what the following files do and where I can acquire them? iecont.dll, and iecontlc.dll. When I did the msinfo32.exe search, i identified...
