IE Security Site List
Hi all!
How do you print out a list of restricted sites that you have put in
Internet Explorer 6.0, so that you can add them to another computer?
I've been adding sites to the restricted list based on Ad-aware finds.
It would be a real pain to manually copy the list.
Thanks in advance,

Ifshlp.sys
Hi Good Folks,
I've just been through the MS Knowledge base looking for info on a boot
error I got this morning that said I was missing Ifshlp.sys. I have the
file now (I checked) because I used my boot disk to get to System Restore.
In the MS article there was no explanation of what might cause this file to
vanish. I had Ifshlp.sys yesterday for sure: Windows loaded without a
glitch, 'puter ran like a top (no blue screens, no errors, no lock-ups), and
shut down perfectly at the end of the day. I've had one lock-up/poweroff
today since the restore--caused by MailWasher (it occasionally throws me a
blue screen, but it's one I can actually use "enter" to get out of most of
the time).
Anyone know what might have happened with Ifshlp.sys?--I'd like to avoid
having a problem with it again. Norton AV has found nothing, and the
computer is shut off every night (I have a dial-up connection).

Where does my memory go?
I've got a 900MHz Athalon with 384M memory installed. I
can be doing nothing but editing a small document with
Microsoft Word and my memory will drift from 170M
available to 0M - then the system locks up. I don't even
have to be physically editing anything. It's not only with
Word either - I can have no apps open on this machine,
just the operating system and watch the memory just
dissapear to 0M and then either the system locks up or I
get a BSOD - WHERE IS MY MEMORY GOING TO? Does anyone have
any suggestions? Do I need one of those memory
defragmenters? What can I test? I'm baffled... Tag: Error Tag: 228270
Registry Checker error
I have a problem similar to Paul Johnson's previous
post although I don't know exactly what caused it. I was
attempting to add this Me system to our router for
internet access and suddenly when I re-booted I got the
same message from the Registry Checker. I pressed OK and
the system re-booted and when it came up the next time
(just when it appeared to be finished loading the desktop,
etc.) it jumped to a blue screen with the following error
message:
Filename:VMM(12)+00001A77 Error:0E:0028:C0280A77
I re-booted again and was back to the desktop with the
Registry Checker error again. This cycle repeated with
additional re-boots. So I ended the Registry Checker task,
used the Symantec system scan to fix the registry (found
and fixed 23 errors) and still I get the same Registry
Checker error. Ran Symantec again and it found no registry
errors and the machine seems to run fine. Still getting
the Registry Checker error message every time I boot.
What might be going on here and what should I do to (as
safely as possible) fix this problem?
Thanks,

Hide when minimized
This may not be a Millinium specific question but the
system has Millinium on it so I'll start with that as the
OS.
Taskbar is visisble. When I open up applications, for
example Excel, and if I need to minimize one to get to
something else. When I minimize the application item
disappers from the Taskbar so I can't click on the item
to restore it to full size. The only way I can bring it
back is to use the Alt-Tab keystroke so the application
is still open but i can't restore it to full size.
The taskbar is visible the whole time. It is similiar to
what occurs if you bring up the Task Manager and go to
Options menu and check 'Hide when Minimized'.
I must have set the same type of setting for all
applications by accident because I can't find that
setting for anything in looking through all the functions
so far.
Can anyone provide any suggestions. It would be greatly
appreciated.

Problems with Norton Speed Disk
For some reason I cannot use Norton Speed Disk on my laptop. It used to work
fine but now it seems to get stuck.
I have a Sony VAIO notebook running Windows Me, and a hard drive of 10 Gb that
is partitioned in two drives, a C drive of about 4 Gb containing the operating
system and program files and a D drive of about 6 Gb containing data files. The
C drive contains about 2.5 Gb of data.
When I try to defragment this drive a certain sequence occurs: Speed disk is
first "optimizing folders", then does some "sorting" and finally goes on to the
task of "optimizing". At first all seems to go fine, but then at some point the
program gets stuck by just endlessly repeating the first two phases of
"optimizing folders" and "sorting". This can go on for hours, but often the
program just crashes and shuts down.
I've tried to defragment in safe mode but Speed Disk won't run in this mode.
I've checked disk integrity and all but cannot find anything wrong. Does anyone
know what may be causing this behavior and how I can correct it?
Thanks, Paul

Windows hanging on 1st start up
Hi all -
Windows has started to hang on the first startup since day before yesterday.
I thought at first it was just a 'thing', but, it is doing it with every new
startup. After I turn it off with the power button, it then restart it comes
up and works fine. I am not getting any error messages, it just freezes up
It seems to load ok, I have my active desktop displayed, but, once that
happens it just seems to hang, lock up, and I have to turn it off with the
power button and then restart. . It stops processing at the same place each
time, before the AV and then Zone Alarm loads.
I recall seeing a few other posts about a same or similar event, but, can't
nail them down, or remember the solution.
I would truly appreciate it if someone could point me in the direction of a
KB article or Help file that will address this. I found a couple of KB
articles, but, they did not address this problem.
Best regards,
Jan :)
