thunderbird sending emails several days ahead

2009-08-14 Thread Miguel Gonzalez
Dear all, I have an user reporting that his thunderbird is sending emails in the future (several days ahead), so it shouldn't be a time zone issue. Windows XP displays the right time. How can this be possible? Googling is not giving me a clear picture Thanks! Miguel ~ Finall

2009-06-01 Thread Miguel Gonzalez
Hi all, Is there any way to install a software in Windows XP as admin without logging off the current non-admin user? Can I do it remotely or locally? Apparently It could be possible to switch user instead of logging off, but I don't see that option anywhere. Regards, Miguel
