To reformat and reinstall my family computer (usual reasons) and now there are a couple of caveats (although not all windows specific);
Occasionally the start menu is unresponsive (maybe about half a second). The strange thing is, if i delete all the apparently dead end registry entries, then the start menu becomes really responsive, but the taskbar settings are lost after reboot, especially the toolbar settings.
Why is it, after I applied the new version of Autopatcher 5.6 (may 2007) and all the critical and recommended were installed, windows still downloaded around another 40 megs of updates? Did i miss a checkbox or two or something?
Is there a reason for people not using the limited account more often? After using linux, and looking at the user privelages for most people's home computer (basically everything), I realised how vulnerable everything is. So should I set up a passworded admin account and a unpassworded limited account or has other people encountered problems with this set up?
thanks
