I am running Windows XP Home. What is the best most reliable registry cleaner for this system?

I need to reformat my hard drive. If I do that and re-install XP Pro, will I be able to register it? In the other words, will Microfoft let me use the same license? Should I do something special to let them know that I am reinstalling the same system? Gregory

I'm probably overlooking something but I need help. I have a PC, which was full of Viruses and Malware, but is now clean. I can run a scan of several different virus engines and it detects nothing. So with that being said, why can I not get to certain websites? Windows Update is one, and if you try to go to safer-networking.org it takes you to a totally different site. When trying to get to Windows Update it shows IP 127.0.0.1 which is the loopback address. I checked my host file and it is clean. Where is IE picking up this 127.0.0.1 from?

Recently a patch or settings, I am assuming something with SP3 on XP or Remote Desktops patch, has changed the way I use Remote Desktop to connect to servers. It used to be from my XP Pro machine I could use Remote Desktop to connect to a server and log in as an administrator. If I was logging in as the same admin that was logged in, I would simply take over that session and the screen would lock, if I logged off it logged off the Admin or if I disconnected, it would just leave the server locked. NOW - when I connect to a Windows 2003 Server, it seems that instead of taking over the session that is already logged in, a new / second console is starte…

I have been using Terminal Services for myself to do server administration for several years. I VPN on the firewall and then hit the servers for admin work. I have been tasked with creating a proposal for select employees to work from home which will require file share access, Outlook, and client server database application. The existing VPN to the desktop is great as long as it's a good Internet connection on the remote end. However, my concern is when folks are in a hotel on a shared connection and they simply don't have the bandwidth my phone will be ringing off the hook with whiners. Is a terminal services setup the best route on this? W…

Hello all, I am in dire need of help and hopeful that I can get the assistance that I need. My hubby downloaded a virus on my computer one day last week. It was quite nasty and I had to do a system restore. I ended up having to do a Destructive System Restore to get everything right again. (The virus would not allow me to access any of my documents, music, etc. When I clicked on the Start button, it wouldn't even bring up my control panel or anything) I did the destructive restore and everything has been working fine. My computer automatically downloaded all the updates and when it installs the SP 3 (or even SP2) and tells me to restart my compute…

I've got a new customer in that we are going to develop an app for. Basically they process lots and lots of documents - PDF's and Word Doc's. Our app is going to let them drag-and-drop these files into a screen which will then "move" then automatically into a share on a file server. The app will also manage these files "via" a CASE NUMBER - so we are going to have MS SQL running with a database of these cases. Long story short... At any rate - there are not many users - dozen or so - so the MS SQL part is the least of our worries hardware wise. But the documents get into the GB's in size. Do you have any opinions on what a file server like this …

I installed service pack 3 and have noticed a weird problem-every time I put the computer on standby, it crashes every time I come back from standby mode. I used it all the time with SP2 with no problems whatsoever, but with SP3 when I come back from standby it crashes. Has anyone else had this problem? And if so, is there a fix?

RE: desperate for help...add/remove program error This same message starting popping up when I went back into Add/Remove to make sure that netcom3.com internet security suite software was gone after I uninstalled it from Start and Programs.

Is there a way to get the Favorites drop down menu to display immediately when clicked rather than having to click on the chevron symbols at the bottom? Thx Dave.

One XPPro workstn was infected by the antivirus 2008 trojan, which I have managed to clean. One problem remains: I cannot browse any server (2003) shares via network places or explorer, although all mapped drives are accessible. When I try to browse to the server, - '\\our_srv\' only one share is shown - 'userdata' - and this appears as an empty folder. Z:\ is mapped to \\our_srv\userdata\username and lists all files, but in explorer that same path returns 'windows cannot find (path). check spelling....' I know that the trojan affects the local policies, which I've reset, but cannot find anything that would cause the above. Any help, suggestions, guidan…

Or whatever that one is called in Windows that is neccessary to keep to get updates. Anyways mine is empty for some reason and I don't know how it happened. So the other day i noticed my C;\drive had lost about 650megs of space and after poking around I found out that folder was full of kb folders about 650megs worth. I guess they were all a bunch of past updates I have installed but got re downloaded. Did the fact that that folder was empty have something to do with that. And can I fix it. I deleted all the folders becuse my computer is up to date and always has been.
