Problem with proxy?
by Guest Quba- 0 replies
- 217 views
Hi everyone, I have a problem with connecting to internet by squid proxy server. While I'am trying to log in to proxy, after confirming the authorization the web isn't starting. It's just view a message: "Url could not be retrieved, access denied, contact to your proxy admin". I'm wondering is solution of the problem on terminal (maybe some application blocked some ports) or on proxy side (admin disabled access from this end-terminal). I especially turn this question to admins, please help.

I have received 4 DVD's (chess games). Two of these dvd's will work as soon as I close the dvd drive,the other two will not. I enter them into the drive and the green light always stays there. Once these dvds are in the drive I can not open any other program on the computer, it just jams. The only message I get is ' program not responding'. Are these faulty dvd's? -- Max de Winter

My computer connects perfectly to Outlook the first time I start the computer, but after logging out and logging back in again the computer gives me an error saying it can not connect to server. If another profile tries to get email, Outlook gives them the same error message. I can connect ONCE and from there on in I can not. My only option is to restart the computer EVERY time I want to access Outlook for my email. Any suggestions? -- kk

Helpsvc.exe 95% CPU
by Guest JustUs- 3 replies

HelpSvc takes up 95% of CPU usage. It seems to do it at its own will. Just started the past week or so. I found a KB for this problem @ http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933993, but it says it applies to Windows Server 2003. Will this also work for XP? The only ref I found for this with XP was to install the latest SP. I have all the updates. Thanks in advance for your solution.

Because of repeated errors I decided to reinstall Windows XP Home SP2 through a set of recovery CD's provided by the PC manufacturer. (I do not have a regular installation CD.) I backed up my My Documents folder to my external hard drive in a cut and paste operation in Windows Explorer that I have performed successfully in the past. I selected a so-called destructive recovery and, as expected, was warned that a full format would be conducted with the loss of all data. (I doubt that any such format occurred, but that's another issue.) I proceeded as in the past umpteen times I have had to use system recovery. I set about reinstalling and updating m…

Reformat and Installed SP2. Runs good. Had backed up Favorites and imported them. But I can not open the Folder - Access denied. I am the only person owning and using this PC. When I installed SP2 or did it happened later, I made an error somewhere.. This is maybe the reason that I found in Windows Explorer under Doc & Sett the following: -Administrator -All Users -Default User -Jose\Favorites\FAVORITES (here I get access denied) -José\Favorites\ Here I see only URL which were not yet sorted to put in Favorites before the BU. Please notice the é. Both are the same person Also under José\Appl..\Start Menu\Progr..\Startup\Reminder.wps there…
