The difference between the new and the old os xp version is that, the old xp os
has only limits in terms of updated services, while the newer release now has a lot of services being installed into ur drive whether it is useful or not to your program. that is how, many of us has its own questions why my pc is too slow for my machine that has a 2.66ghz speed, 512mb of ram and intel boards?
i hope that this would be a help.

Just look at the differences between the versions when you run winver.exe...

Hi all.
Is a windows service running under LocalSystem account capable of creating a hidden window, thus it can receive windows messages from the OS or the rest of the windows, even if it is not interactive?
I am writing a service using asynchronous sockets and I wonder if such sockets mechanism would work to a system service.

I don't know. What is keeping you from trying it and looking for the result/error/exception?

Services can create hidden windows as long as they are created with the interactive flag. Interactive Services[^]
Asynchronous (non-blocking) sockets, per se, work fine. I've never used the built-in socket classes (CSocket or CAsyncSocket) - I've always written my own since I don't like using the windows message loop as my notification mechanism.

I have an icon in the tasktray that won't go away. It keeps poping up a security alert from some stuck software there by Antivirgear.
How do I remove it? I have scaned the registry and have removed all references that I could find. I have search all the files, removed all the files it instaled, etc.

Well... reinstall the software that sends the icon. Also: It may be a Windows Security center alert. Then you will have to go to the security center, warning options and disable the "alert me if no antivir was found" option.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Not quite what I had in mind. The software is just a ploy to get one to spend money via credit card and then...So reinstalling bad software is not the answer. Thank you for trying.

Have you used Task Manager to look for an application or process named such?

That and more. I am looking for the spot in the sysem that this "errorware" leaves its head. Much like a intestinal tape worm, one might get and kill all of the body, but not the head that has the hooks to keep it in the system somewhere, probable some 'system' attributed file. The head then regenerates the body using the hosts resources.

This so far seems the best reply... However upon inspection of the manual method of removal, mind you I am kinda anal about what is on my hard drive, I found their list of *.dll's to be suspect. I did some discretionary searching. I searched for all the DLL's on my system. I never really thought I had that many. (18,000+) I made only a cursory comparison between their list and what MyComputer found. I have looked in many places. I keep finding new/old places I hadn't looked before. It is no wonder most people just 'use' their computer for simple things and no experimentation. In my case I was downloading a new batch of CODEC's to try out for quality of compression vs. file size and ease of use. It had been about a year since my CPU had its own access to the net. I forgot what trouble some like to brew. Anyway, while I did download the Free scanner (didn't say anything removal) I haven't installed it yet. I have installed Window's Defender program as a stop gap for the time being. Hopefully it will keep anything new from poping up with panic alerts.
P.S. I did send them an email. It seems to have been somewhat effective. The previous time when I booted up and got the icon in the tray, and then went on-line, after about ten to twenty minutes went by then my screen went black, the box rebooted itself, and when everything had finised reloading the nasty, irritating icon was GONE.
Joy to the world... then the next evening the irritating icon was back, and didn't go away. Yet this evening I had my registry up, my on-line email access to follow the instruction for removal, and explorer was up, so I could check each registry entry it suggested, etc. regedt32.exe froze and I could close it. The other programs were still OK and weren't hanging. I pressed reset. After rebooting and everything being loaded, the irritating nasty tray icon is gone again. Go for good...we will see...

I have tried that, and my experiences with it was unsatisfactory. You could say that my opinions are that it was a waste of time.
Anyhow, keep us informed of your progress in destroying this "nasty"

Agreed, MS Windows Defender is not the most agressive. I did try SpyHunter 2.9 from EngimaSoftware. It seems to be a honest scanner, with a link to its removal tool for money.
It gave a report that was valid, which I did use, with success, to eliminate the unwanted entries in the registry, and other locations of offinding dll's. I had the 'errorware' 95% removed, this free scanner did help me find the rest of the mess. I can now say I am currently 'Master of My Machine'.

Does anybody have an idea why the explorer crashes every single time I enter a folder containing videos (any format *.avi, *.mpeg , etc)? It's pretty annoying and makes simple tasks very hard to do.

Preview. If the video files are corrupt, the Explorer might crash while trying to render the preview thumbnail. Use the "list"-layout to prevent it from crashing instead of strip or thumbnails.

It doesn't matter which type of view I use and the videos don't seem to be corrupt.

Is it all of them, or just one in particular?

Problem solved : I have installed the latest codec pack (KLite) and it works, although I don't see the connection, probably a backround worker made the explorer crash.

Naw, I still believe that the codec probably crapped it's pants while creating the thumbnail, taking the explorer with it.
