I get this message while copying files from one computer to another thru wireless network.

When typing and saving documents or emails onto my hard drive, the time created shows correctly. However, when I send a document or email to someone else or place a file in a shared folder, they see the time as one hour later. My control panel "date and time" reads correctly for my time zone. What is happening and how do I correct this?

Computerized voting systems (aka DREs or Direct Recording Electronic) must be based on an operating system, for example, Windows or Linux. Linux has the advantage of being open so that all the source code can be open. Windows source code will not be opened to anyone. Some people have argued that the basic Windows operating system can remain secret as long as the voting application program (i.e. C, Python, etc) is open. Here are some questions about such an arrangement. 1. Could someone tamper with the Windows OS or put in some additional code that would not be found in an inspection of the application program that could alter the results? 2. Could vir…

Hi- I just installed new Kingston 2*1GB RAM on my Dell Inspiron 1505 (Intel Calistoga i945PM). The earlier memory was 533MHz, while the new modules are 667 MHz (They are http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=204884016). The problem is that these modules are running at 533Mhz. I verified that the 945PM does indeed support 667 (http://www.intel.com/products/chipsets/945pm/index.htm). However, these modules are running at 533 for sure. Everest says the memory speed is really 667, however the Memory bus 'Effective clock' is 533Mhz, with the real clock being 267 (It doubles with dual channel). Before I upgraded my RAM, I had taken benchmarks (Everes…

Hi I have a strange request from our office assistant. She works on a domain computer (Windows XP) called NORTON01. The domain is managed by a Windows 2003 server. She thinks someone is hacking into her files. So she wants to prevent everyone (except administrator of course) from logging into NORTON01. I searched for "restrict windows login" and found several pages that basically describe how to assign computers in the ADU. I can't use that feature because all the users except the office assistant float. Can anyone help me out here? Thanks

ok.. here is our basic setup... Our network has 10 different locations, including the corporate office. At the corporate office, there are 2 terminal services servers running Windows 2000 Server, without any sort of load balancing. Each of our locations are running on their own subnet, and consist of Windows 95-XP client computers, as well as a couple laserjet printers. Some of these printers are connected via a network interface, while some are connected directly to one of the client computers. We also have some automated systems here (some using SQL, some using other custom built software) at corporate that print things to some of these printers. …
