    Email but no internet explorer

    A friend of mine has recently had issues with connecting to the internet. Their son was on the PC when the AVG software picked up the "Tinyproxy" virus. He was asked if he wanted to heal it to which he replied yes. Job done.. Now it may be coincidence, but now this machine will not connect to...

    Advent 7081 Laptop no screen now

    A friend has the above laptop, and managed to contract a boot sector virus. The machine is a M Processor 1.3 celeron. He said that he didnt want any of the data on it, so we could just reformat it to save messing around. I put a copy of Windows XP Professional in, and booted off of this disk...

    Changed to 3Com switch, now HP printer doesn't work properly

    We have just changed over from an old Netgear switch to 2 3Com 3300 TM, and 3300 MM. The change over was pretty much seamless, as you would hope. But I have one major problem. While all the servers, desktops, printers etc.. all picked each other up with minimal problems, the HP 1050c plotter...

    New Dell 3.0 Ghz (HT) won't load new OS

    We generally buy all our PC's from Dell.. we just do. We get them with XP Home loaded, and then FDISK them and load Windows 2000 Prof. We have a site license, so its better this way. Usually, with past Dells, this has never been a problem, and once the first one has been configured, drivers...

    Outlook Web Access on 5.5 and NT 4

    I have just been looking through 5.5 documentation, and it appears that I can set up Outlook Web Access on Exchange 5.5. I have a couple of questions on this: 1. Can Windows NT 4 Server take this. It looks like it will as long as IIS is set up. 2. If I can do it, are there any reasons why I...

    Just a quick bit of advice on 5.5 Sp4 please..

    I am just about to apply the complete SP4 to my Exchange 5.5, to see if it can sort out a couple of continuing problems, and I just thought I would ask if there are any "funnies" I should be aware of before doing this. Anyone had any bad experiences, or advice would be greatly received.. I'm...

    NT profile brings the network to a HALT!

    Basically, I have a user who's NT roaming profile has grown to a rather large size. So we have tried to thin it down etc.. and it has definately shrunk.

    ...Internet message that could not be processed

    Now I always thought that if I was getting the above message from our Exchange 5.5 server, if I were to tell the sender to send me the message in plain or rich text I would get the message as intended. But recently I have been having some real problems with our head office. They are on Exchange...

    Replies to internet - general opinion

    I have a question for the experienced.. We have Exchange Server 5.5, and as standard, I do not have "replies to internet" turned on. I do this as, the way I have learned, is that it can pose a security threat in terms of viruses being able to mass mail from users mailboxes etc.. But one of...

    Moving the Public Information Store

    My exchange server has become increasingly bogged down of late, and the MTA and other Exchange services are regularly shutting down. This is obviously causing a few problems. I have added a new E: to my machine, which has plenty of free space on it. I know that you can select a path for all of...
