Being a *nix guru, I forget that win32 does have a "few" logs. A look at the system log showed that the latest version of Avast's AWS service was crashing IE8. Removing the "Browser Protection" module corrected the problem. Interestingly enough, IE8 appears to be the only browser affected this way. Incidentally, AFAICT there is no protected mode for IE8 installed on XP. Thanks again for helping break me loose on this!

[Samba] XP Pro client perm issues after joining samba domain
Samba: 3.6.6 PDC Client: XP Pro SP3 Background: 1. Started with a clean installation of XP Pro SP3 2. Joined the client to the samba domain 3. Logged in as user 'root' the first time after the join. 4. Added "Domain Users" group to the "Local Admin" group on the client (forget about the security implications for the moment) Now when a user (any user) logs on to the client and attempt to open Internet Explorer 8, Explorer promptly crashes. If the local administrator is logged into the client, Explorer works as expected. Everything else works fine for all users including both local resources and domain resources. This is happening on eight clients, all with clean installations of the OS. I'm suspecting this is a hidden permissions problem, but am really at a loss for where to start looking or debugging. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kind Regards, Chris -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
