Re: Certification time?

2012-09-18 Thread IS Technical 
Hi folks,

I'm looking for recommendations for a small desktop page scanner 
which has built in eMailing capabilities OR can invoke a command 
line mailer (such as Blat) on the system to which it is connected.

Thanks.

Charles

Take a look at the Samsung SC3205W MFP. A very nice 
little laser MFP for under $150. I've placed these in a 
number of customers with great success.

It's very good. The Pro version is excellent value and

I've been using Mike Lin's StartupMonitor for many years. 
A great tool which uses very few system resoucres.

http://www.mlin.net/StartupMonitor.shtml

I use it in conjunction with his Startup Control Panel

http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml

Another great (but more complex tool) I like is Mark

countless occurrences where the defragementation

execute at any time.

Agentless hardware inventory tool

2010-07-21 Thread IS Technical 
Can anyone recommend an agentless tool (freeware or not) which 
will inventory system on a network and generate a hardware report  
of systems on the network. All systems run Windows (various 
versions).

A scriptable tool is preferred but tools with GUIs are OK.

Many thanks.

Acronis Backup & Recovery Advanced Workstation 10

2010-07-12 Thread IS Technical 
Has anyone been able to get Acronis Backup & Recovery Advanced 
Workstation working. I've installed all the components of the 
licensed version a number of times on various machines without 
success. I've even tried various builds including the latest one 
without success.

The persistent problem across all the installations is that I get 
this pop up in the system tray: "acornis managed machine service 
in unavailable" (presumably it's the reason I can't connect to 
the agent on the test machine). Of course, the service is 
running.

I found the problem reported in the Acronis forums a year ago, 
and Acronic support claiming that it would be fixed in "the next 
build' (presumably released some time ago).

Next step: go throughout the painful process of dealing with 
Acronis support.

Charles

Why not download the latest Malware Bytes rules file 
(mbam-rules.exe) on another system and and run it on 
the problem system in safe mode. It will install the 
latest defs to the Malware Bytes folder.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
\Explorer\User Shell Folders\Personal

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

Changing MY DOSS location using script or batch file after log in

2009-06-05 Thread IS Technical 
Anyone know if it possible to change the location of MY DOCUMENTS on-the-fly 
after a user logs in using a batch file or script? 

This is for a Windows XP Pro machine running on a network with no DC.

I've tried importing the relevant reg keys from a script but this doesn't 
seem to work. 

Thanks..

Charles

OT: Sunbelt contact

2008-11-12 Thread IS Technical 
Does anyone have the name of a Sunbelt contact who I can call directly who 
would be able to answer some specific technical Vipre-related questions.

FYI, I've tried to get to the right person using Sunbelt's general numbers 
but have been playing telephone tag with someone who never seems to be there 
(at least when I call). I should say I haven't been available the one time I 
was called.

Charles

Re: Good text editor

2008-10-06 Thread IS Technical 
#What's the best text editor out there for writing code and scripts and such?  
I'd like to find 
#one that does line numbering obviously, and does some formatting to keep 
things neat.  
#Like color coding expressions, functions, etc.  I'm trying to learn 
JavaScript, and using 
#Notepad and Dreamweaver are proving difficult.  

JEdit.
