    Spoofed MAC Addresses.?

    Hi there, Thank you for your reply. Yes the random network addresses were making me think it was something spurious on the router, or the laptop, casing the issue, not someone else attached to the network. But it is weird that they are so varied and illegal. In answer to your second...

    Spoofed MAC Addresses.?

    Hi there, Thank you for your reply. In answer to your question, when I first noticed this, I pinged all the addresses and ran Angry IP on them, but got no reply or information of any sort. I realise this could just be because the potential spoofer tried all sorts of invalid IP addresses to...

Its only for...

    Act 2007 Hanging

    Hi again Thank you for your assistance. We used to have ACCPAC on this server, running on Pervasive SQL, but I stopped both services, relational & transactional, a year or two ago, when Act's SQL 2005 Express was installed, and they have been disabled for a while now, pre-dating this issue...

    Act 2007 Hanging

    Hi, Thank you for your response. Yes, the slowness also occurs on the server, and we can open the demo database without the issue repeating, but just to update you further, we have spoken to Sage support, and a couple of hours of checking Windows service pack levels and uninstalling /...
