Usually when a file is in use and you're using a p2p prog, some one else is trying to d/l it off of you. But yeah, rebooting into safe mode works most of the time when trying to delete a file.
Win2K Pro is the user (client) version of Win2K Server. Win2K Server allows a person to create web, mail, file, and gaming servers. This is NOT recommended as a day-to-day normal OS to diddle around on, unless you're trying to figure out how to run a server. I have no …

We did this at school and I believe you're supposed to install Linux first then install Windows XP. It worked just fine that way.

Have you tried booting into Safe Mode then deleting the file? start > run > type "msconfig" > BOOT.INI tab > check the /safeboot box > Apply > restart to boot normally, uncheck that box. if this doesn't work, trying using pocket killbox.
my recycle has the same properties and whatnot as your gateway. there are a few things that don't wind up there and it's never concerned me, b/c when you actually think about it, "Deleting" isn't really removing it, just code to make it appear it's not there.
I make backup cd's for everything and yes, you can make a copy of the windows cd. It's not illegal (making 1 backup for non-commericial use) so I'll tell you how. First Step - Right-Click on the Start button and click Explore - At the top click Tools then go …

My buddy wasn't able to download all these nifty progs so I had to upload it to him through AIM. He's no longer having problems staying in a web browser so I had him run HJT and send me his log file. Here's part of it. O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [jf4] …
I hate using the WinXP formatter. What you might try doing is going to your hard drive manufacturer's website. Western Digital has Data Lifeguard Tools and Hitachi has Drive Fitness Test. Both of them have a tool that does a low-level format and writes 0's to the entire hard drive …
how are you connected to the internet: - DSL? - Cable? - DSL + Router? - Cable + Router? - Some form of dial-up? Open up your Internet Options - General Tab: Delete Cookies Delete Files (online and offline) Clear History
Though I'm no expert, nothing looks out of the ordinary on your HJT /shrug
My friend had this same issue. Since he could not stay connected to a browser long enough, I had to manually upload him the files via AIM messenger, the same ones listed in my sig. This did resolve his problem.
I don't think Windows (any version) let's you re-install without formatting the current partition you want it on so I think you just might be screwed as far as your data goes. Sorry to hear that.
FAT = File Allocation Table From school here's what I learned...it's not extremely thorough, but it is to the point. FAT16 is old/obsolete. Users can only have make a 516MB disk space, it's extremely vulnerable, and file names can only be something like 8 characters long. FAT32 is an updated …
I think you have some form of the W32 worm. Same thing happened on the comp I worked on the other day. Some installer window would pop up for a brief second then go away.
uncheck the box for it. just make sure it isn't a system process.
What type of hardware might need new drivers? Every time I low-level format, I make sure to download all current drivers (winxp os) for my mouse, headphones, video card, and anything else that's plug and play. Also, make sure to view hidden files and folders, show extensions for known files …
d'you really like watching the screen grow and shrink? lol :)
Eh, attempted to fix another comp heavily infested with a worm. Ran McAfee AV. It cleaned some files, I quaranteed others, and deleted the rest. It told me to reboot so I did. I ran every thing on the Rescue Disk and it found nothing. After I choose a user …
It's not flagged as anything bad under adaware, spybot, or the plethera of other progs I used, so I'm wondering if [B]C:\WINDOWS\srchasst[/B] is good or bad.
I think I'm getting the hang of HJT files of what's fishy :D
My friend gets this ONLY when there is an internet connection available. Would this be an incorrect IRQ setting or faulty modem and ethernet NIC problem? Because the BSoD occurs with either of them.
Everyone has their own method for cleaning up a computer. I, being uber-newb here and trying to help out, will give the method that works best for me. First Steps: right-click on Start and go to Explore click Tools at the top then select Folder Options On the View Tab: …

1) What is the difference between searched *.tmp and .tmp files created by Killbox? 2) Is is safe (recommended) to delete the folders created/installed by Windows Update?

I've been mystified about this for a few days, ever since I came here. I heard there's a "list" to check normal vs abnormal, but off-the-bat, peculiar stuff, what does one look for?
