    Cannot log in to web sites, "cannot display web page"

    One computer on this network cannot log in to web sites with IE. Firefox works OK. The web site appears OK, but when login credentials are entered it shows "Cannot diplay the web page" as if there were no connection or no DNS. (I even tried it using the IP of one of my sites rather than the...

    GWIA runs a few seconds, stops

    Customer has an ancient GroupWise 6.0.1 setup, so I don't know how much help to expect. They actually only have two addresses in use for public email, all other GW activity is strictly in-office, and only 6 users at that. When the GWIA starts, it lists 30 or 40 messages as "recipient unknown"...

    POP3 will not download new messages . . . .

    Palm Treo Windows Mobile 6.1, POP3 account set up, has been working over a week now since I got it. Suddenly, selecting Send/Receive gets no new messages unless I first delete one message from the phone. Then all new messages are downloaded when I repeat Send/Receive. When I try, it goes through...

    Windows Mobile ICS - Port forwarding?

    I am able to use my HTC 6800 Windows Mobile 6 phone to browse the web from my laptop, but I'd like to give someone access to my laptop for remote control at a customer site. (It would go lots faster if he could configure the device by seeing my laptop remotely, instead of trying to talk me...

    I have a customer whose Exchange server has a spam handler, drops mail into a Spam folder under the Inbox folder.

    Several users at a customer site running Exchange 2003 with Outlook 2003 at the PCs have reported that their archived messages are disappearing. When I went onsite and examined one of the PCs, I found that the archived messages were present, but in the archive's Deleted items folder. Thousands...

    File, Exit performs File, Close instead

    Using Excel XP, performing a File, Exit results in a File, Close being done, Excel remains open. If more than one file was open, only the current file at the time gets closed. Alt-F4 or the Big Red X behave the same. Word on the same machine does not do this, File, Exit behaves correctly...

    Jobs going to wrong printer

    I have a customer running Windows XP Pro stations on a Windows Server 2003 network. Occasionally, print jobs will go to a printer other than the one specified. I had been blaming the server, thinking the spooler was mixing up the queues somehow, but now it has happened to a user with a local...

    I have delivered to a customer a Citrix Metaframe XPs FR3 on Windows Server 2003, only one Metaframe server, trying to run WordPerfect Office 12 as a published app. Active Directory is not installed, and there are no other Windows servers on the network. Citrix is primarily for application...

    Strange keycode

    I had to reinstall a Windows XP yesterday for a customer who got whacked by backdoor.haxdoor.D. I kept thinking I got the machine cleaned up, but as soon as he reconnected to the LAN, it came back. He can log in another machine with no problem, so I gave up and asked him for his CD packages...
