Re: Denied permission to access folders

Under file properties there is a "special permissions," in addition to the usual "read," "write," etc. Is there another parameter that I can add to the command string to unlock the special permissions?

One quick question. How many times does one have to turn on Protected Mode? I have to turn it on every time I close IE and reopen it. I am double clicking on Protected Mode OFF and checking the box to enable it and then clicking apply and okay. Yet when I close IE and then open it again later there I am back at Protected Mode Off.

Spybot say REGFIX.EXE is a threat - why? 1 2
by Guest Terry Pinnell- 40 replies
- 764 views
Why does Spybot report RegistryFix.exe as a threat please? I gather it arises from a free registry repairing utility called RegCure, which has a poor reputation. Over-hyped, useless, grayware, etc. Lots of criticism found from a few minutes googling. But I haven't seen a single solid piece of objective evidence (in contrast to idle rumour and speculation) that it is either a virus or a trojan or any other sort of malware. Is it? If not, why does Spybot report Regfix.exe as a threat? BTW, doesn't Spybot offer the option of studying details of its results? A single word 'RegistryFix.exe' doesn't tell you much. In some other programs I recall being able to …

Error message: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, o
by Guest Pryhthm- 2 replies
- 122 views
I recently started getting an error message stating that "WINDOWS CANNOT ACCESS THE SPECIFIED DEVICE, PATH, OR FILE. YOU MAY NOT HAVE THE APPROPRIATE PERMISSIONS TO ACCESS THE ITEM", whenever I double click on my cd rom drives. If I right click on the drive icon and click EXPLORE, I can access the files on any disc in the drive. If I go into safe mode, I don't get the error message. I am currently running Windows Vista Home Premium and I am an administrator. UAC is off. I am not sure if it has anything to do with it, but I recently uninstalled AVAST antivirus software. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks.

Unreliability of CD Boot.
by Guest Anteaus- 1 reply
- 105 views
Just a general comment, but wondered what other admins' feelings are on this: In the days of floppies, if you inserted a boot floppy, then the machine would either boot from the floppy, or else not boot at all. Which was sensible behaviour. With CD booting, the machine will possibly boot form the CD, but if that fails then it will boot from the hard-disk instead. This can have several very undesirable consequences: -If the HD is virus-infected (or might be so) not only do you risk exposing the LAN to the virus, but you have to throw away the CD you were trying to boot from, as it has no write-protect and therefore may have been compromised. …

Best Way to Track Service Being Turned On?
by Guest Will- 6 replies
- 150 views
I have a strange situation on a firewall I need help with. The server is Windows 2000 running ISA Server 2004. For reasons I cannot determine yet, the Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service keeps getting set to Automatic. I set it manually to disable, and I have verified that nothing in group policy should be turning it on. A few days go by, and then I login and see the service set to Automatic, and sometimes turned on. I don't believe the other operator of that particular server has enough knowledge to make this change, nor do I believe he would be malevant enough to do it. So I have a problem. What is the best method to get an email a…
