I am going to do some more speculating on the 1 millisecond default polling value of the USB drive [ not the cd drive which I accidently wrote in my previous posting ] and its effect on the xp operating system processing speed.
Dividing the "system bus speed" by a factor of a 1000 would only apply for a worst case scenario: that is , if the computer engineers were to deliberately design the 1 millisecond polling output to Shut DOWN the complete "system bus " every millisecond when the polling circuit is turned on by the microprocessor [assuming that the polling circuit is not a separate free running oscillator running at a 1000 cycles per second - astable as opposed to monostable - a lack of synchronizing would no doubt cause to many problems , so the polling is no doubt tripped off by the microprocessor].
Even if "the total shut down "design is not opted for by the computer engineers - they could still opt to have the 1 millisecond polling increments shut down SOME of the "system bus" that is, some of the 32 bit address or 64 bit address space.
If the computer designers chose not to shut down any EXTRA parts of the system bus every millisecond and just let the 1 millisecond polling increments utilize the required amount of system bus address space it required in order to poll the USB drive --- I wonder how many BYTES per second or BYTES per millisecond of computer band width would be taken by the polling ciruit?How much system address space has to be set aside every second to process the 1 millisecond polling increments ?
I suppose that the polling ciruit has its own coded file.How large is it? Would it be a couple of thousand bytes in size or would a file the size of a couple of hundred bytes be enough to get the USB polled?
I assume that you could Multiply the Size of the Polling File by a Factor of 1000 in order to find out how many Bytes per second that the computer has to continually process.

For the past couple of months I have been using the ccleaner utility tool each time I turn on my computer to surf the internet etc , which means that the ccleaner utility is run at least once every time that I power up the computer.
I think that it is a smarter policy to run any utility tool when you first turn the computer on instead of running the tool at the end of a computer session and just before turning the computer off for the simple reason that if the computer user has happened to have been on the internet - any viruses or spyware etc that might happen to have got into the ram memory would automatically then be deleted.
I used to only use the ccleaner and the xp disc cleaner about once a week or every 2 weeks or so but I have noticed that the hard drive now goes about 10 to 20 times longer before requirng a defragging because I frequently monitor [every couple of days] the fragmented condition of the hardrive using the windows "analysis" option that is a part of the xp defragging tool. The percentage of total fragments and fragmented files is now always well below the 5% and 10% level for much longer periods of time.

The system time reflects the BIOS data/time. If you set the time in Windows, the BIOS date/time also gets set. The opposite is also true.

Hi, currently my network contain domain cotroller running windows 2003 and one e-mail server plus 30 client computer. Now I want to setup a firewall running ISA 2004 Standard Edition.
I have successfully install ISA 2004 on a new server running windows 2003. Then I try to create the rule that make ISA and my internet network could be able to communicate with each. The following rule is created:
1. Rule name: ISA to LAN
2. Action: Allow
3. Protocol: All outbound protocol
4. Source: Local Host
5. Destination: Internal (internal network card)
Then I apply the rule but when I try to ping from my ISA computer the any client in my internal network, the ping is request time out.
Does any one know how to configure its access for the above purpose?
Thank in advance!!!

Hi,
I have prepared a software in .net. Kindly suggest and help me by eplaining the method to secure my software through usb using pendrive from illeagal copying and distribution.
Thanks in advance.

you could request the SDK from these guys http://www.esecutech.com/[^] and experiment with it - typically you bind part of their library into your app and use that to check if the dongle is there, read codes etc from the dongle
(I beleive they also have paid advertising on this site, so wait till the add comes around and click on it)

Dear friend,
Thanks for replying.
Plz note and try to understand. Suppose any software prepaired by us and I distribute to any one telling him for not to give any other person for use.
How can I protect our software from unauthorised use and copying by any other person before giving to any one by using USB pen drive (Like DONGAL).

I work for small company where some of our network/IT tasks are handled by third party IT consulting firm. We have Exchange Server handling out mail. Previously we had GFI MailEssentials installed to handle spams. It is my understanding it has stood to its claims.
Just this past weekend, we came to know our license has expired and it is time to renew. The IT consulting team is suggesting we move to hardware based antispam tool from Barracuda. We don't think this is necessary and don't want to use hardware based solution for this task.
So, the questions are
1. What do you recommend for Exchange Server antispam tool?
2. Do you see any value in having hardware based solution?
Thanks for your time and input.

BTW - Why not to use Barracuda's solution. Exchange is Microsoft, Microsoft if main victim of viruses, Windows is a spam-networks breeder.
I'd prefer to use something not from M$! Google's mail is also good and protected from spam perfectly.

Well, there are a number of problems. To begin with, why run additional hardware when it can be equally handled by software. I can see a point having hardware firewall, but not spam filter.

That may be the case, but no one is immune.

I have full control as to my personal stuff, but when we work for company, at times, our options are limited. I use gmail as my primary email address, but when it comes to work, I got to go with what ever they provided. I can certainly voice my opinion, but at the end of the day, I have to use what ever is decided by the company. Good or bad, I have either to use it or leave the place.

No question gmail rocks, but the nuymber of spam caught by the spam filter are grown day by day. I have seem few spams that made it to my inbox.

Working for company involves tons of bureaucracy and sluggish minds. I met with such kind of situations many times so I perfectly understands you.
However - companies sometimes could afford themselves to be sluggish but once they feel bad (which is often seen nowadays) they turning their faces to developers opinions.
Anyway - good luck with resolving your problem!
Remember - all problems are temporary

I recently got a Netbook with a 16gb solid state drive. It came with WinXP and as space on the drive is a minimum, I want to remove some of the Microsoft "fluff" that I would not use:
Microsoft Synchronize (Start->Programs->Accessories->Synchronize)<br />
Windows Live Messanger<br />
Movie Maker<br />
Windows Live (a suite of things I could care less about)<br />
Games (will never play)<br />
Windows Media Player (will use QuickTime for mostly MP4 and audio files)<br />
Tour Windows XP (can this be removed?)<br />
I have been researching a lot of these, but am really stuck on "Microsoft Synchronize".
Also, if there is a better way to go about getting a very small WinXP footprint, I'm open to advisement.
Thank you very much!

Windows media player might be good to keep, but the tour you can remove (IIRC). And the windows help files can be removed too. Maybe you should try out nLite?

Actually by using non MS software - you'll end up with same amount of free space.
Why not use this main SSD for System + additional software and generic 8GB/16GB/32GB USB stick for data?
This could be the case.
I have very old Dell Latitude C600 (PIII 1GHz + 256MB RAM) as browsing and book reading device for my wife - and she use network or USB stick to put additional data (even on USB 1.1).

for the most part, i plan on going the route of your suggestion - additional apps, storage on removeable sticks/cards. I want to test if ok to run Google Earth from removeable card + save its image cache on the same card.
I also watch/download videos and curious if saving/writing to same card will pose a problem in playback of videos (MP4s, avg 4-6mb).
Only can try and see what happens.
My system specs:
ASUS 1gb RAM,16gb SSD running WinXP
900mhz celeron
refribished system running great
