I am trying to delete the roaming profile of a Windows NT 4.0 domain user, (i am logged into the server as admin and i just try to manually delete the profile folder of the already deleted user) but i get an error about security or something. Can anybody help? Thanks alot

There are no open files as far as i know, yet i have this problem. The specific user hasn't logged in for a month now, so i don't see how any of his files could be open

I came up with this problem yesterday, a corrupted roaming profile of a user, in a WinNT domain, and i cannot find any solutions in order to repair it Does anybody have an idea? Thanks alot

How can i re-enable the "save as" option when i download an .exe file using Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 under Win2k Pro? Thanks in advance!

Yes, you can ... ;(

Ok, i respect that.

Personally, if i were an administrator, i'd probably have a word with a salesman of every GOOD program to see whether they do have such a version in the first place and then make up my mind. But Norton Corporate does have the same engine installed and cannot be better than the one tested here in Win98sSE environment. Same gos for the rest of the programs of course. And if you really wanna talk for domain versions, F-Secure, which is #1 if you see the results of the test, has one HELL of a domain version Thanks again for your interest. Talk to a salesman? LOL! I'd MUCH rather talk to other System Admins on their AV solution than a salesman. I'm gonna laugh about this one all day..... Hehe ... so i suppose you buy the product first and then take all the blame from the manager of your company, who may even fire your a$$ for all that i know, if the antivirus scre#s up? Talking to other sysadmins is a good thinking but you cannot blame them if something goes wrong pal ... Instead you can always get a refund from the salesman

Fist of all, thank you, adamvjackson, for your question! I should say i am not an official antivirus tester, meaning that i am not getting payed to do such tests for the rest of my life, like some people i know do. Secondly, i, too, bought Norton as my first antivirus program and saw how shitty it is once i i started dealing with viruses. I am one of the best virus collectors on earth, and i have strong reasons to KNOW that i do have a larger and BETTER collection than MANY antivirus companies at the moment. The reason that i am telling all this is to help you make a better selection about which antivirus should you choose for your home and your work; either one it doesn't matter really, it's your data you are protecting. You ask about my recommendations .. i always recommend the best program at the moment, and that you may see in the results of my test. Many may say "bug off, mate, you're full of shit", well, as i said before, it's your money, i don't test programs for a living, and i don't really care how many will get their hard disk formated by a stupid virus in-the-wild! As for my new test, i am making on behalf of a well-known english computer magazine and i cannot publish the results till 2 months from now. But, this much i can say : the results AIN'T THAT DIFFERENT than the ones you may read at my website, www.virus.gr, which is also translated into english for all of you that have and want to spend some time to learn and protect their computers against viruses. Pardon my english, i am only a greek virus collector, and i didn't get what you mean by saying "I would recommend, depending on how extensive your testing is, that you have 2 different classes per-say; One for 'home' and one for 'corporations'."

Quote: Sorry, don't believe those results. Norton has been tested again and again and in many tests picks up virus that other scanners do not. I shall continue to harp on about Norton/Symantec anti-virus until the day either my home systems or my work network get infected with a virus due to the software not picking it up - then I'd be able to say how bad it is. However as my home systems have never been infected and my work network has been clean since the deployment of Symantec AV 7.5 I think I shall continue to recommend it to all. I am making a new antivirus test at the moment, the results of which you will be able to read in about 2 months. As for Norton, don't forget that for the blind, the one-eye man sees more ...

Well, it's your money pal ... norton has been tested again and again by people it pays to "boost" its results ... and they do it just for people like you ... pardon my will to help you make a better selection. But lemme say something, believe it or not, i am a serious tester and that much i can prove, to either you or symantec ... if they ever dare to :-P As for you not having being infected yet, consider yourself lucky ... so far

Quote: the best antivirus for me is norton corporate edition v.8.0.try it and then you will found the best anv program. win xp eng with sp1. amd xp2g greece. Oh really??... www.virus.gr - look in the section Antivirus tests (http://www.virus.gr/english/av_test.htm)

I am trying to back up data of Win2k server using HP SureStore 24 backup hardware. Although the HP supports 24x tapes, i can't use the hardware compression feature, even while using Verita software. I enabled the hardware compression within the Win2k and the backup hardware, but it doesn't seem to work at all Does anyone know if it is just - another - Win2k server bug? Thanks in advance ;(

I used Verita'as BackUp Exec, but it could only compress the data using its software compression feature, not the hardware one within Win2k Added to this, according to the official HP manual the specific tape drive does support hardware compression 2*1. P.S. Thanks for the reply!
