For firewall i suggest Kerio Personal Firewall works fine for me (winxphome; 1,1GHz; 256 RAM; 18 GB HDD) You can set up options for every program on the system(what port or portrange, incoming, outgoing traffic, even when to allow and when not) Antivirus software i'd say that Norton Antivirus 2003 is the best i've ever seen and if you set it up to update automatically, it won't let any viruses in.

I installed tweak xp pro on windows xp home edition. When i put on the password protection, it worked atforst, but then for no reoson it just didn't recognise my password anymore. Is there any way to change it to something that it would recognize? Or does anyone know where the password or the password protection flag is stored (in registry or in system folders somewhere) I've tryed re-installing it for several times, but it didn't change a thing. Each time i installed it and tryed to run the program, it asked for a password. What should i do???

What version of Linux Mandrake do you have??? If you have Linux Mandrake 9.0 or 9.1 then boot up your linux system and login as root. Then start Mandrake Control Center and open the boot loader settings there add new entry and choose a name for opsystem and choose on wich partition or drive it is installed (if you have pultiple harddisks, the drive are named hda, hdb and so on and partitions are marked as hda1, hda2, ... ,hdb1, hdb2, ...) Make sure that the boot device is set to your primary master (usually hda) and you should use LILO graphical mode. Save the settings. Now reboot your machine and you should see the op system list on startup.

I would suggest Apache web server, but it could be quite tricky to configure it. There are packets on internet that are set up automatically and don't need much configuration tho. Indigoperl (has PHP4, Perl as addons, you should add MySql server to it yourself to create databases) I don't know how to add asp support to it tho.

If you have win98 or later boot disk that has fdisk on it, boot up from it and start fdisk and set the active partition to the one that you need to boot up. Or if that doesn't work try starting fdisk with /mbr option like: fdisk /mbr that will clear the boot sector from anything that's not supposed to be there.
