 - Keeping Registry Clean and Protect From Spyware Registry spyware is basically spyware that hides itself away inside of your computer. Basically the registry is the heart of your computer. Your registry is system registry, it is heart of your computer where major components of your system reside. The registry keeps track of your all system files, drivers for your hardware, program installed and records their behavior and settings. Where as spyware refers to a broad category of malicious software that has been designed to intercept or take partial control of the operation of your computer. Of course, this happens without your consent. Therefore you can see just how bad registry spyware can be. You will be able to tell when you have registry spyware. This is because more than likely your computer will start to have pop-ups that will tell you that your registry is damaged. More than likely this is not true. Sometimes the only way to correct this issue is by formatting your computer drive. Of course, this is a pain and thus you will probably want to try to do anything and everything possible before you do this....

 - Registering Windows 98 For years I've had a Windows 98 PC that's never really been connected to the internet (well, some dial uponce upon a time); I've just recently wiped it, reinstalled Windows and bought a NIC (it didn't have etherney), and hooked the PC up to my network. I'm trying to find some drivers for a few devices and wanted Windows to search online for them. But before I can do that, I need to register Windows 98. When I try to do that, I'm told that "The microsoft registration site is busy; please try registering again." I'm done this a couple of times with no success; is that site still around? Is there another way to register, or a workaround? I'd appreciate any advice. TIA! Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879925

 - Desktop Icons puzzle I have been having problem with Desktop icons when using the arrange icons menu selection. The icons become misaligned on left side of the screen even though the name, type, size and date are in order the icons themselves are in disarray. There are two users with personalized desktop settings. If I set the display properties dialogue on the effects tab with large icons checked, this will straighten out the misaligned icons. If I switch back to small icons the correction will continue to this setting up to the point that I use the arrange icon or line up icon on the application menu. This becomes tiresome when working. Any idea as to what is wrong with this feature? Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879912

 - Restrict dialup number We are fixing to be giving some computers away to needy children and will be providing free internet. The machines run Windows 98 as they are quite old. We want a way to lock in a dialup number that they can not change. The reason for this is that we have dialup numbers for our regular customers which cost us per unique login and then we have dialup numbers for these computers for which we are charged a flat rate. If someone starts changing the numbers on these computers to the numbers we are charged unique logins for, then we will start losing a good bit of money on the deal.

Does anybody how I can resolve this matter? Thanks! ------- Well I managed to re-install IE6 in the computer (Win98SE by the way) and the problem is still occuring.

 - Follow-up Here's prior post: Background: Promise 133 controller card, 2 WDC 80GB hard drives on removable trays. Promise bios shows identical drives. First master (alone), second master w/slave (DVD burner). Unable to access 2nd hard drive. Have tried: Simple boot floppy with ME dos on it, and same with 98SE dos on it at boot time. DriveImage 2002 with 98SE dos on it. XP w/SP2. WinME window environment. 98SE environment. Swapping drives in trays and using the unaccessible drive by itself. Swapping tray insertable locations. Jumpers adjusted accordingly. During floppy boot (both 98SE and ME), have observed the access LED on the tray indicating access to that hard drive. PC locks up everytime. Similar in XP boot, ME and 98SE when I open windows explorer to investigate My Computer. WDC diagnostic tool on bootable floppy similar results. ------------------------------------------------------ For those who want more precise info the one I'm having trouble with is IDE2 drive. I tried onboard ide with same result both attempting to boot with it, and booting from floppy and CD with WD diagnostics on it. Using a firewire enclosure with the problem drive, XP SP2 disk manager remains attempting to make contact with logical disk manager for 10 minutes. I stopped it at that point. Attempting to populate, error message said that the partition(s) may be of Windows 2000 nature. I don't own Windows 2000 and the drive has never seen such. -- Dave How about a tax to support any military conflict/police action over 3 months old?

 - Renaming files. Say I have 10,000 files sitting in dedicated folders that accomodate 30 files, one for each day. The curly bit, is they have brevity in their current name and are only identified by their "modified Date" for example 2104.zip will be recognised 12 times one for each year since 1996 that is 2104.zip modified say 22nd april 1998 2104.zip modified say 24th april 2001 etc. How may I rename them, so that the zip will still activate yet I can fit them in 1 file (so that 2104.zip 1998 does not get overwritten by 2104.zip 2001) Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879813

 - screensaver password reverting to old password intermittently Any idea why my Win98SE screen saver password every few weeks reverts to the old password? The new one fails after it worked fine for days. The screen saver is native to the OS. The network password remains what it should be. I change the screensaver password and everything's okay until some weeks later. No one else uses the machine and it's not on the Internet. I use profiles as if for multiple users (I forgot what apparently worked better that way), but mine's been the only login all this time. I'm not going to a previous state with registry and startup files, and if Win is doing that without telling me it's not telling me, but whether the reversion only happened after a cold reset I don't recall. Nothing useful in <SYSTEM.INI>. Wasn't a problem before the last time I changed the screensaver password, which is also after the *.pwl file was last modified (I changed my login password then, too). I don't know where the screensaver password is stored, but "Underwater (high color).theme", Underwater.scr, & Underwater.dll were last modified in 1999, as are all of "C:\Program Files\Plus!\Themes\Underwater*.*", which should eliminate them; and it's not in the registry (unless encrypted). According to Find for the whole computer, the only files modified the same recent day I last changed my password were C:\WINDOWS\TEMP \~DFE6E9.TMP, ...\~DF5F4C.TMP, ...\~DF52A4.TMP, & ...\~DF60EA.TMP (each 3,584 bytes); they respectively contain the following plain English per Notepad: ~DFE6E9.TMP has "R o o t E n t r y", ~DF5F4C.TMP has "R o o t E n t r y", DF52A4.TMP has "R o o t E n t r y", & ~DF60EA.TMP has "R o o t E n t r y", "SCANDSKW", "SETUP", "W8=C7" (unknown if relevant to platform being Win98SE), "SETUP", "SETUP", "SETUP", "SETUP1", "SOFFICE", "SOUNDMAN" (I don't know what I have in the bought-as-barebones machine that's about Soundman or in the homebuilt that used to house the HDD w/ same OS), "SPOOL32", "ST6UNST", "START", "STPSUP", "SUCATREG", "SYSINFO ?", "SYSMON", & "SYSTRAY". As an experiment, I changed the password recently to the normal password twice via each of two methods (via Display and Passwords applets), i.e., 4 times total. Every time it said it had successfully been changed, which means it can't tell the difference if there's no real change. I tested the password correction; it works now. One hunch: The old password was 8 characters long, all different. The new password is the same minus the rightmost character. (I know that kind of change is weak security, but that's a different subject. I should tighten that after I solve this problem.) Could the similarity mean Win is sometimes remembering the old one? I'm glad I know this old password, but I shouldn't have to. I usually discard them. Ideas? Thanks. -- Nick Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879790

 - Need Advice Well, it looks like I've finally reached the end-of-life with my P11, 300 MHz Win98se machine. My master hard drive went belly-up but I have managed to limp along by replacing it with my properly re- jumpered slave drive. Fortunately it was a clone of the master so it was able to boot-up okay. The dilemma: What to replace my computer it with. I have a good friend who is a well respected local Computer (since 1994) technician who strongly recommends Dell, ONLY because they are the only ones who still sell XP machines. His strong opinion is that Vista is very buggy and doesn't look like it is going to be cleaned up in the near future. Also he says the unique "features" of Vista are mostly troublesome eye candy and messy security items, and that XP will survive for at least the next 5+ years. My question: Should I limit my choices to Dell because of the XP/Vista consideration or should I bite the bullet and go for the best machine for my kilobuck without regard for the operating system. Any thoughts, recommendations will be appreciated. Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879730

 - Changing motherboard Win98SE Hi All, I managed to turn up a used computer for $20 which contained a suitable 800MHz Celeron board, which I could use to replace my dud motherboard. I've never replaced a motherboard before, so just doing it was of interest to me. I wanted to boot up the original hard drive with all applications installed and get it to work with the the new motherboard. I put an old installation hard drive into the $20 computer so I could experiment - I got some good stuff off the internet of "how-to" do it. I had Acronis True Image at the ready too, with existing backups of the system. I did alright on the motherboard, graphics, in the transfer to the new motherboard etc, but the audio just plain refused to work. I eventually made the drive un-bootable trying to fix this audio sound card problem. I had to True Image recover the drive. The method I finally found worked best was to: (1) Do a repair-install of Win98SE. This got most of the motherboard right including rather crucially the CDROM. Probably the best first step with any OS if you can do this. (2) Install the motherboard chipset drivers and get them right. (3) Install the Graphics Driver. (4) Un-install any audio sound card stuff in Add/Remove Programs. (5) Go into Safe mode and delete anything to do with the old sound card in Device Manager. (6) Install the sound card drivers. It ought to all work now. Any problems then try re-installing drivers. Might be useful to someone. :) Ross Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879715

 - Running program from flash drive means lock.exe doesn't work I have an Adata USB flashdrive running a p2p program that also stores downloaded files on it. I left it running for a few hours. When I came back, it was no longer running the program. All the data is secure so I have to run lock.exe, together with a password to access it. But when i run lock.exe from the installation disk, it says "No Flash device attached!". When i run lock.exe fro the flash device, it says "This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down". So now I can't even access the program and data that was in the security area. Does anyone have an idea as to what has happened because it looks as if I'll have to reformat it, which seems pointless if the same problem is going to occur. Regards, Larry.

 - Black screen (no logo) before desktop shows How can I display the Windows 98 logo (with the changing color bar at the bottom) before the desktop loads, instead of just see a black screen for 1 minute? When the machine starts, the Windows logo displays, then the screen goes black for about one minute, then the desktop loads. The machine is running fine. msdos.sys does have the line "Logo=1" I tried just putting 'logo.sys' in the C: directory. No joy.

 - boot disk Hello again....... I wrote on Sunday with regards to being unable to get my computer started up. I can't get past the DELL LOGO screen and then it goes to a black screen with the cursor blinking on the left top. I tried the F8, the control key, F5 key............... so far, NIX! And so someone asked if I had a boot disk. YES, I do....but before I put it in and start trying........could someone tell me what the procedure is and how I should respond to hopefully get my old girl up and running.

 - Re: destorying the hard drive - Thanks Franc and Mike. Thanks for the info, guys. You are VERY knowledgeable. You have educated me but also gave me a bit of a headache. Oh well. -- Savagery of the relationships between people. Here, everyone is on the make, all of them doing their damndest to take someone else by surprise, to relieve this man of his property, to enjoy that girl's flesh. There is no gentleness, there are only pleasures. Eyes which already devour the easy prey offered them, eyes which seek out the chink in the armour, the weak point, the little patch of pale skin into which the nails can sink and bring blood spurting out. Spying eyes, fierce eyes, sharp eyes which loathe and wound. A look which passes summary judgment, a knowing look, one which wants, not to understand, but to keep at a distance, to consume at a distance. A kind of tentacle, eye- sucker clamped to the intellect's stomach. The world is not pure. The world is free, roamed by wild animals, inhabited by greedy, hate-filled monsters.

 - Inbox contents simply vanished In OE 6, Windows 98, the entire contents of the Inbox just vanished after restarting computer. There were about 4 weeks of e-mail in there. Other folders do not seem to be affected. I looked in the Outlook Express folder on my hard drive, and the Inbox file at this address: C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Identities\{9226D728-E116-11DA-8D61-00045A5FABE0}\Microsoft\Outlook Express was down to something like 130 KB, containing just a lot of unreadable code. I normally move Inbox contents to other folders regularly to keep Inbox from getting too large. I've never seen anything like this. The contents of a huge file simply vanishing.

 - Stand-alone virus scanner for Windows 98? Can anyone recommend a stand-alone virus scanner that will work with Windows 98? I need something I can use for maintenance that I can burn onto a CD-R disc - put it into the CD drive and then scan the system. FYI, Trend Micro makes a great stand-alone scanner sysclean.com, but it only works for Win2K/NT/XP. Thanks!!! Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879542

 - BIG Problem I installed the Unofficial Windows 98 patches. Now the computer does not go into Windows, not normal nor Safe Mode. I get a fatal exception error at 0187 (or (0167):BFF9E0BF. I can also sometimes see an error in VXD VWIN32(05). Can someone help me get the computer to work again? I couldn't reinstall Windows 98 from a CD either. Setup thinks (wrongly) that disk commpression is used. Thank you. Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879533

 - Accessing identical hard drive Background: Promise 133 controller card, 2 WDC 80GB hard drives on removable trays. Promise bios shows identical drives. First master (alone), second master w/slave (DVD burner). Unable to access 2nd hard drive. Have tried: Simple boot floppy with ME dos on it, and same with 98SE dos on it at boot time. DriveImage 2002 with 98SE dos on it. XP w/SP2. WinME window environment. 98SE environment. Swapping drives in trays and using the unaccessible drive by itself. Swapping tray insertable locations. Jumpers adjusted accordingly. During floppy boot (both 98SE and ME), have observed the access LED on the tray indicating access to that hard drive. PC locks up everytime. Similar in XP boot, ME and 98SE when I open windows explorer to investigate My Computer. WDC diagnostic tool on bootable floppy similar results. -- Dave How about a tax to support any military conflict/police action over 3 months old?

 - computer won't start up Hello. Yesterday I started up my computer quite normally. When I opened OE it froze. This happened a number of times and so I restarted in SAFE MODE. From there I did a number of things like VIRUS CHECK, SPYBOT and did a delete and clean up of files. Scan disk, defrag, etc. Later I went into normal mode and tried again.......another freeze up. Did a restart and then disabled NORTON Internet Security and ANTIVIRUS. Then OE opened fine and I was able to do a little more work online. Shut down normally. Today I pushed the start button......did NOT notice any peculiar sounds or something out of the ordinary....the screen went just past the DELL COMPUTER SCREEN and then to a cursor on the top left, it made its usual starting noise and it stops there. Suggestions are welcome......... Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879489

 - My mouse gets the jitters I ran for virus and adware. Nothing. Periodically, the mouse starts to jump about erratically. Like the PC is really busy even though it shouldn't be. This gets worse until it is not usable. Continues even after all applications are closed. Symptoms are gone after reboot. I never had this on my old PC running at 450MHz on win 98. I am now at 2.6GHz with win 98SE. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Is this common? Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879463

 - Re: Lexar's "Secure II Plus" 2GB JumpDrive on Windows 98se computer Hi Franc, Thank you for your suggestions. I found "USBVIEW.EXE" on my Windows98SE CD and put it in my wife's WinXP computer. With "Secure II Plus" plugged in, I launched USBVIEW and I was able to see the VID (OX05DC) and PID (OXA702). I added that information to "JDUSBMS.INF" file, but it was unable to install a driver on my Windows 98se computer when I plugged in "Secure II Plus". I will seek Maximus Decim's NUSB and see if I have better luck with that.

 - Fresh install rebooting issue I have an 80GB HDD on which I treid to install Win98. I copied the files to the HDD and ran the setup from that directory. After all of the files loaded, the PC rebooted and said it was running windows for the first time. It then rebooted in the middle of the splash screen. Since then it will not get past the splash screen without rebooting. Any ideas on why this would be happening on a clean install? Tag: Active@Undelete - Hard Drive Recovery Tag: 879445

On my wife's WinXP computer, no problem of course. I assume that if I knew the VID & PID numbers, I could add that to the .INF file (from jdusb2.zip) and perhaps, that would work? On my wife's WinXP computer, I looked at properties via Device Manager for "Secure II Plus", (which was plugged in), but I didn't see anything that looked like VID and/or PID. Do you know how I can see those numbers? Thanks in advance, Brad Before you type your password, credit card number, etc., be sure there is no active keystroke logger (spyware) in your PC.
