    - Removal of an Application I have removed an application deleted the folder and searched any ramnants of application in the registry. When I restart the computer the "registry entries" with deleted folder references comes back into the registry. I tried by reinstalling it but every time I restart the computer the "original registries" come back. Any help would be appreciated. Tag: Ad Aware update 161 Tag: 288475

    - Color Profiles I am hoping someone has a better knowledge than me of the files in the color folder. It is my understanding that windows uses them to correct from a core point for color accuracy of your monitor, printer, scanner, etc. Just how, I have no idea, that is I don't know how the system calls them or what part of it uses them. They have been around since W95 to the best of my knowledge as I was having an issue back then and even talked to Kodak, maker of many of them, and they were of little help. They did offer to make me a custom ICC file, expensive. Sometime since then PRF files also get added to the folder. One of them belongs to my printer, but one is Compaq and I have nothing Compaq, so I wonder if it is default installed. And whether the profiles for the hardware get installed is an iffy situation. An old Sony monitor would not install them, even though they were present. They could be manually installed. Then Sony came out with an update that would install them. Same issue with printer, although I see the profiles in the folder this time, they are not associated to the printer if I check the properties, color management. The color profiles associated with this printer window is empty. Checking the profiles known for this printer, properties, associate device is empty. And as usual, it appears the profiles for my scanner did not get added to the folder. What prompted me to pursue this again is that I noticed no profile was associated with the monitor under the color management of my video card. Checking, the profile for the monitor was not in the folder. I installed it. Most of the files in the color folder are ICC or ICM, but one specifically, mpc5500.prf, name of my printer, seems to have a bad association by file extention. The ICC and ICM open with unknown application, which I suspect is correct, and have the proper icon. The .prf files have been stepped on by something and it might be the IE6 upgrade. Properties show that it opens with "Internet Ratings and Local Us" and it is a PICS Rules File. If I chose to open the file a "supervisor password required" pops up. It says that it will install the Rules file into the Content Advisor feature of Internet Explorer. (Cancel, glad it warned me). I'm really confused on these files and hoping someone can enlighten me.

    - Security Updates CD and Windows Update Can anyone explain to me why, on a fresh install of Windows ME, after installing the Security Updates CD (Feb. 2004), Windows Updates no longer functions? I get there OK, but when I click to scan for updates, it stalls at 0%... Forever. I've tried this twice, from clean install on, with the same results. I've also installed Scripting Engine 5.6 and Repaired IE as per instructions from Windows Update T-Shooter. Even installed Java runtimes and force reinstalled IE6 SP1. No luck. -- Gary S.

    - WinXP - or not? At the last computer show I was ready to get my WinXP CD, when someone next to me mentioned, that with all Windows Systems, except 'Win2000', there would be a refusal to reinstall in case of a crash. For that specific reason the Europeans (Germans) adopted the free Linux System instead and, happily so. Does this reflect reality? I already have the CD for the Linux System, to be installed on a single and seperate 80GB HD. Would or should I want more? Harry. Tag: Ad Aware update 161 Tag: 288368

    - Problems After Running Defrag My laptop has been locking up after internet usage during shutdown. I finally decided to run defrag over the weekend. I have owned the laptop since 2001 and never ran defrag b-4 this past weekend. It took approx 1 hour for defrag to complete. Now when I open internet and try to type in e-mail certain letters such as D, F and G executes commands as if you were hitting control and then letter (ex. ctrl B=Bold). I cannot type because when I type the letter, the keyboard executes certain commands. I thought it was concentrated only in aol internet but then tried to type in Word and the same thing happened. Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so what did you do to fix the problem. Comments are welcome. Please HELP! LA Tag: Ad Aware update 161 Tag: 288277

    - USB Mass Storage Device Hello, I'm experiencing the following problem: Scandisk reports the presence of mismatched FATs on a freshly formatted external USB HDD. When repaired Scandisk reports that it has fixed the problem. However, the problem persists on the next running of Scandisk. The same result is obtained for multiple HDDs. The following is known: Device Manager does not report any problems and has two relevant entries - Disk Drives: USB connected HDD is correctly identified and shown to be working properly & USB Controller: USB Mass Storage Device (usbstor.sys) is present and shown to be working properly. Windows Explorer lists the connected USB HDD (Drive F in my case) and allows full access to it. However, data transfer is pains-takenly slow (i.e. hours to run a thorough Scandisk on a small 2.5GB drive). Is this a known problem with a known solution? Tag: Ad Aware update 161 Tag: 288269

    - Need DOS help Hi folks, I'm writing a batch file and need to check for the presence of a folder. I find that the "IF EXIST ...." syntax only works for text in WinME. I can use this in WinXP but NOT in ME IF EXIST C:\TEST GOTO END :START RENAME C:\START\SAMPLE.TXT JONES.TXT GOTO DONE :END ERASE C:\TEST\XXXX.TXT YYYY.TXT GOTO DONE :DONE EXIT Running this batch file in WinXP works fine but in WinME it does NOT follow the directions. It simply drops to the next line after the IF EXIST statement. Same thing happens if I use IF NOT EXIST - just goes to the nest line. Can someone advise on how to check if a folder is there and how to jump to one or more places in the batch file for other actions? Thanks, Fred Tag: Ad Aware update 161 Tag: 288264

    - Where is my file 2 Would someone please take a look at my thread of "where is my file". Maybe you know the answer and can also tell me why I seem to have tilted Mike. Not sure if it is related, but I ran across something strange this morning. Browsed to archive where I keep some data. Specifically a folder that contains data and forms for Vietnam Vets and noticed a file name that I never created, except unknowingly. DDCC7300 No extension even. I did a search for *DDCC7300*.* to see if I might have passed over a file of same or similar name with pointer and accidentally saved to that name in a different folder. It only returned the one file. So I have no idea how it came about. But if I open it is an excel file. An older version of a database that I have since added more sheets and data to. Note, my original thread was about search, and am now double bewildered. Any ideas to how this file came about or my stupidity about search are appreciated.

    - Looking for Security Software for Win ME Hi there, My 6-year-old Win ME computer was happily running some ISP supplied AV and firewall software until the ISP upgraded it to a newer version which is no longer supported on an ME system. They no longer issue or support the "old" version as it was with a different company. So, I'm hunting around for the basic stuff to put on my ME system, i.e. Antivirus Firewall Antispyware Antiphishing etc. Just because these will be used on an older computer I would prefer to use free stuff. I have hunted around on the internet, but it seems that Win ME supported software is getting harder to find. Suggestions and recommendations would be much appreciated. The system is a 433 MHz Celeron with 192 MB RAM. So don't want to install applications that will use much RAM. Thanks in advance! By the way, I need to get rid of fragments from previously installed apps, what would be a good program to use? L. Tag: Ad Aware update 161 Tag: 288173
