Hi,

Works fine here, not sure why in your case it isn't coming up.

We have a windows service which spawns a browser.
To enable this operation,the service has been configured to "Interact with Desktop",runig as localsystem account.
This does the desired,in most of the windows environments(2000,XP,2003).
However,in some of the Windows 2003 boxes(not all),we find no visible browser instance.
However,we have confirmed that the browser is indeed spawned under the 'SYSTEM' account through the task manager.
This confirms that there is no problem in the execution of the executable as such.
We have explicitly set the 'visible' property of the IE browser handle to 'true'.
Is there some security setting/configuration that may potentially have been flagged to suppress the 'visibility' of the browser in these specific 2003 hosts?
Any help on finding the source of this 'invisibility' of the browser will be much appreciated.
Note:This happens only when the browser is spawned from a service.When spwned from command line(interactive),things work fine even in these particular hosts.

We've found that it can take a system reboot before the interactivity of a newly-installed service starts working.
In addition, this only works if you're logged in on the console session (session 0). For Remote Desktop/Terminal Services, run mstsc /console.
You should move away from this approach ASAP as Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 have locked down session 0: you can no longer spawn processes that will appear on the user's desktop.

Thanks.
One clarification - what is the option to do a similar operation on widows vista/2008 server?
If we impersonate a logged-on user,though we do not see the browser,it serves the purpose for us.
Will impersonating a interactvie user for a process launched from a windows service continue to work in vista/2008?
Or will that be clamped on too?

Hello,
I posted a question into the Lounge regarding how to read the registry of one Win95 that doesn't boot.
The answers I've got are great, and refer me to use the regedit in real mode.
I can get access to it by using a floppy drive with a boot disk (it seems that it is not the same OS version so I cannot make a "sys c:" to make it bootable again).
What I've tried till now is to use regedit in real mode as it is explained in several pages in the Internet:
regedit /l:c:\windows\system.dat /r:c:\windows\user.dat /e c:\file.txt
That instruction should read the DAT files contents and write them into the c:\file.txt.
The problem is that if I open the USER.DAT file using an editor I can read some strings that make me think that the information that I need is inside that file (some paths to the program which configuration I need to recover) but when I execute that instruction a complete registry dump is made, but those strings disappear completely.
I must be doing something wrong, but I have no clue on what can be.
Do you have any idea that could help?
As always thank you in advance.

It seems that there is a little application that can show the contents of a .DAT file the refers to the registry:
SYSTEM.DAT and USER.DAT in win95 & 98.
It is called RegDat and it is shareware.
I can promise you I've almost become mad trying to find it out.
Moreover, at the end it has not been useful... 
Time to go home...

hey all,
I am a system admin and facing a lot of troubles in the operetors computers. they are bringing with them flash memories ( memory stick) which is not allowed.
is there any way to stop it? without disabling the usb port?

|

|

OK,
Tell me is there any other utilities of using the USB port on ur clients?
You can deny access to USB port. But it depends on OS, how u will do it?
Which OS u r using?
|
|
|
|
|
if the users bring flashdrives and introduce viruses to your network, try panda antivirus. the only other way is to disable USB port.

If you just want to block user from downloading information from pc,you may just disable write access properties for USB port by using system Registry.Or if you want block user from accessing USB for any purpose, you may also using registry or policy setting.
I am just using registry for block user from access usb port
Hope this help

Not sure if this is the best forum, but it is relating to an operating system not booting.
I've now seen for the second time a computer where the partition table on the boot disk has been lost, meaning that no partitions exist on the disk.
In both instances, I've managed to recreate the partition with a Linux based CD, which recovered all the data, and then fixed the master boot record of the boot device and all was fine.
But in both instances, I haven't been able to find the root cause of the problem. I'm not aware of any programs that can do this, or anything a user can do to cause this, and I think it's happening at too low a level and too specific to be a virus.
Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions or possible answers would great!!

If you are running windows xp, you could boot with the installation disk, go to the repair console, and use chkdsk to see see if your hard drive has any errors. If you're not running windows xp, then maybe your hard drive is close to burning out?
Code pre-built is code that you don't have to build later.

In this case it was a Small Business Server 2003, and the OEM disk didn't include the recovery console, which is something I'll be taking back to the OEM vendor. I did get my hands on a retail edition though, which does include the recovery console which fixed the master boot record.
It actually happened to my own system quite some time ago as well, and the hard drives in that system are still running without issue, so I'm not sure it is the hard drive burning out either.

Not sure what it could be then. I've never had that problem with any of my hard drives before, and I've had them for about 5 to 6 years so far. Glad to try to help you, though.

Could you post more detailed information about that? How many users are using the OS? How the issue manifested (blue-screen, reboot or something). What kind of applications have you installed?

The first one a while ago was simply a single system, that had a heap of programs installed under Win XP. It was fine the night before, and when it went to startup the following day, the operating system not found message appeared.
The second time around, and the most recent, was an SBS 2003 R2 box, which was only less than a month old, and was shut down in order to install a UPS. Once connected to the UPS, the machine was restarted, and the operating system not found message appeared. In this instance, it only acts as a server, no user at the console, has the standard SBS stuff installed - SQL, Exchange etc., and not much, if anything else is installed, but has not more than 15 or 20 users accessing it.
Therefore, about the only commonality I've been able to see is that both have occurred on a shutdown, but I don't know if the partition table was cleared before shutdown, during shutdown or on the restart.

I guess you're using NTFS. In your case I would try to isolate the issue somehow. For example try to disable the swap file, disk caching, etc. It's nasty if you don't know how to reproduce the issue. Maybe you could experiment with a cloned partition on another machine. Or the disk in another machine. I would like to know the causes of this, so if you find out anything please post it.
