What is that services.exe all about? I have the habit of running Services MMC Snapin by navigating to Start, Run, Services.msc. In some real hurry and sometimes when I forget the .MSC, my Task Manager shows a steep high CPU usage and some weird process services.exe keeps running.
In the most of the cases, the only solution left is to give a kick to the system and allow it to reboot and then it comes back to normalcy.

From http://www.liutilities.com:
Services.exe is a part of the Microsoft Windows Operating System and manages the operation of starting and stopping services. This process also deals with the automatic starting of services during the computers boot-up and the stopping of services during shut-down. This program is important for the stable and secure running of your computer and should not be terminated.
Although as it points out, some viruses use services.exe as their virus executable to look like the legitimate Windows component.

services.exe implements the Service Control Manager. It also hosts the Event Log and Plug and Play services, on Windows XP.
It could appear to be consuming a lot of CPU if a service or application is logging a lot of data to the event log, or if a service is frequently updating its running status - or crashing and having to be restarted a lot.

Hi,
Can anybody please help me to find out the way to change the password from command prompt.
I have mapped a folder of some other server (lets say a) on my pc (lets say b) with different userid (pqr\myUser ) and password.
Now i want to change the password of this user (pqr\myUser ) from command prompt. This user belongs from different domain (lets say pqr) and computer b (my pc) is in defferent domain (lets say zzz).
i tried NET USER ( c:\>NET USER myUser mynewPWD ) but its not working.
Please can anybody suggest me some command like net user.
Thanks,
Ankur Bakliwal

The command does work, but you can only change passwords in the current domain (the one the admin is logged in as). It doesn't work on foreign domains, and only an admin can use this command to change passwords.

Yes Dave,
i logged into the server with domain (pqr), like pqr\myUser, but the pc b (my pc) is not in same domain. It is in different domain.
Can it be possible?
Thanks,
Ankur Bakliwal

If you are starting with it, try Virtual Box[^], which is free and open source.

Good suggestion with VirtualBox. I forgot to mention that one in my post

Sorry, but how possibly is cygwin remotely related to the query? The OP wanted to run the entire "Linux OS" from within Windows. So, he is looking for virtualization software. Not Cygwin, which is just an emulator.

cygwin has nothing to do with running a Linux OS within Windows. Do reread the OP's question.

Yes, you can. I do so with Virtual PC and VMWare.

Sorry if this post is in the wrong forum.
Here is my problem.
One of my customer has sent a mail to me and I read that mail using the web-interface of microsoft exchange server. The person who sent that mail recalled it after some time. The recalled messages also were there in the exchange server web interface. When my Outlook client fetched those mails, it deleted the original messasge and the recalled messages from server and are now available neither in server nor in client. Is there a way to see that mail again?
I tried the exchange server logs but only email status was available. Mail body was missing.
thank you in advance.
cheers

Hi Varghese Paul,
It appears that there is no way to retrieve a message that has been deleted, no matter "how" was it deleted - by the recipient or by the sender with a recall request.
In addition to that, if a recall will succeed or not may largely depend on the tracking options that you would have set in your outlook. Refer to the following URL, which explains various scenarios in this regard:

I can't find icon for my usb flash drive G: on my computer. It can be accessed via command line, however. Typing G:\ in the explorer's address bar says: 'the operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect of this computer'. This happened after I inserted my friend's pen drive on my system. what to do? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I am making one application that clone the disk to another disk.
In my application simply I am copying all the sectors from 0 to end to another disk.
It is working well for windows XP and VISTA there is no problem of drive letters and booting.
But in the case of windows 2003server when I clone Disk0 to disk1 then if i boot my system from disk1(cloned) then it is not assigning drive letters to drives(assigning drive letter to os drive only).
I simply tried one thing- I connected one 2003server disk to system and I deleted the drive letters manually. After restarting the system 2003Server does not assigns drive letters itself like XP and VISTA. Could you please tell me that why it is in case of 2003Server only?
Is there any security setting that I need to change so that 2003Server assign drive letters itself after restarting the machine?
Please suggest me to do this.
Thanks.
