I never heard that xp logs itself off if you do not use it.
You probably mean the screen saver which requires you to enter password again?. If that is the case, then just right click mouse anywhere on desk top, then select properties and then de-click "On resume, display welcome screen".
Hope that helps.

If you're in a domain or on a server, system admins can enforce a logout policy after so many minutes of inactivity or when your login hours are up in order to increase security. They may not take too kindly if you alter this.
If you're not, then you might have (or someone else) installed a third party auto logoff.
Try Google

no one has installed any third party autolog offer, its my home pc not connected to any local network.

Can anyone confirm that a .NET application that uses the 1.1 .NET Framework be used sucessfully on Windows 95, 98, and ME?
Thank you.

Within MSDN, you should be able to check the requirements section of each class and it will tell you what platforms are supported. This sometimes helps when determining what each version of the Framework will support.
I know your question was a bit higher level, but I just wanted to add that tidbit of info.

In the recent past, I used to be able to download files from a particular website, but for over a week now, that has not been the case. When I brought the situation to the attention of the webmaster, his reply was that the problem has been corrected, and that I should try doing a "cache refresh".
What is a "cache refresh" and how does one go about doing it? If by chance, doing a "cache refresh" means going to Internet Explorer and doing a Tools->Internet Options->General->Delete Files, I've already done that and the problem still exists.
If there's any significance to it, I am using IE 6.0 and Win2K.
Thanks for any insight.

AFAIK a cache refresh is when you hit Ctrl-F5 on a webpage... HTH

Thanks for replying.
Doing a "cache refresh" was not the reason for being unable to do downloads. It was the new web address the site was using, which I had to inform the firewall on my system to accept files from. As soon as that was done, I was once again able to do downloads.
Just goes to show, a simple thing as informing visitors to a website that certain parts of the name had been changed, could avoid problems from happening. (BTW, I'm NOT talking about CodeProject. AAMOF, I wish other websites would take notice of the way CP goes about caring and maintaining its site, showing how some problems could easily be avoided.)

Hi there,
I'm trying to get the Monitor Serial Number from my Plug and Play monitor via windows.
I can't locate any sample code that does this. Can you help me?

i installed linux on my comp., i used a os manager that comes default with linux mandrake and i tried linux. some description to this is that linux is possibly the future of good ideas since, like any windows user knows, windows is hiding progs into the mem.. or spy programs or what ever other program loads itself into the memory, and windows doesnt tell you about it. though in linux it runs smoothly... it doesn't have any progs loaded into the mem. except the os and any progs that appear on the taskbar. I was suprised to see everything that linux offered was that one unknown word to windows users... 'free' though there aren't alot of programs i think linux (in my opinion will be like a secondary os to windows) although im not sure cause longhorn is supposed to make programming more 'funner' and i have seen some longhorn programs and am amazed at how quickly they can make a program that would be complex in todays windows... though the developement system for linux is free, it reminds me of good ol' c++ without those confusing memory managers (pointers).  cya

Hi!
I have done a little mistake. I have deleted a folder as a root with
# rm -rf /folder
Is there a command to restore the folder? Or were can I find the deleted folder? It is not in the trash.
Help me, if it possible

The "rm" command actually deletes data in Unix/Linux, it doesn't move it to some "trashcan" directory. If you don't have a backup copy of your data, it's lost.

You can try having a look around in /dev/null... If you can't find it there, you're screwed

I'm just installed XP on a clean machine. It has a broadband connection using ICS, and a LAN connection.
When the net is connected, some of the LAN resources ask for a user/pass to access them. Any of the users I give are rejected. The target machine is on a domain, the XP machine is a member of the domain but is logged in to the local machine. Normally I do not need to enter any passwords to connect.
As soon as I disconnect the Broadband, I can access the network no problems.
I can still access non-domain machines while connected.
Any ideas? It's really annoying as I can't actually download any emails as they are downloaded to the other machine using this connection.
