Subject: 1386 folder
From: Debbie Graham


Okay I just noticed that after I installed the service pack 3 it put the
i386 folder in my windows directory.  I have a i386 folder on my other drive
with more space and use that for running the SFC.  Can I delete the one from
C drive or move it over to the other drive and replace the one there?

Reinstall your default mail client.....(and what is your default mail
program for that matter?).

Can you give some examples of the sites where this behaviour occurs?

Can you manually edit them out of the registry (using regedit)?   That won't
remove the programs, obviously, but it could remove them from the list
(assuming it's stored there similarly as it is in Win9x, and not in some
other database)

Folders on the desktop can improve operations. As to haaving never seen a
folder on the desktop - meet "Recycle Bin" - a folder without the standard
folder icon.

IE-6 or 7 ? - Many times IE crashes are due to the Add-ons that extend
the capability of the browser. If using IE-7, you should have a shortcut to
IE with the extension "No Add-Ons". If so try browsing with that basic
IE. If no issues occur then you'll need to review and possibly remove any
damaged or malfunctioning add-ons.

Subject: system restore crashes
From: Paul Pedersen


I upgraded to a larger hard disk, using WD's file copier to clone the old
disk to the new one. Everything seems to work, except for this.

In My Computer/Properties, if I click on the System Restore tab, System
Properties crashes. rundll32.exe freezes up and cannot be killed. I have to
restart the computer.

Did a dll get corrupted? Which one? How can I fix this?

Win XP Pro.
