On one of our computers, Norton Security Suite thinks that eBay is a fraudulent website. You can login to eBay, but if you do any search it comes up and blocks it as a fraudulent site. We double-checked that the right URL was entered, and we don't have the problem on another computer. Is there a fix for this? Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 01:38, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
Updating to the 2012 version of Norton fixed it. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 04:56, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
I've used several programs for backing up on Windows, but I haven't been happy with any of them. I want to be able to select which folders to back up (not the whole disc) and schedule the backup to run once a day. Does anyone have recommendations?

I accidentally made a backup of my C drive to my second internal HD instead of the external HD. So I made one to the external HD and then wanted to delete the incorrect one. I can't find a way to do it. If I go to "manage space" it only shows the new one. If I "browse" to the old one and select the folder, it asks if I want to restore those files. There is no delete, and it doesn't change to this one under "manage space". Bubba73 You talkin' to me?
If someone blocks an IMEI which does not belong to him/her, is it detectable? 123.24.99.159 ( talk) 07:11, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

We have a new wireless router on our Virgin Media broadband (UK). It's a D-Link DIR 615. One non-urgent question is whether this is the best kind of router or whether we could get faster speed if we can get Virgin to lend us an updated router. Anyway, urgently, we have one computer that now can't find the network. It's running Windows XP Home edition, and has a TP-Link Wireless Client Utility, newly installed, which I understand to be an N-dongle, and that it should be compatible with the router.
I've opened the wireless connection item and then Refresh Network List, but then all I get is an error message "Windows cannot configure this wireless connection". I do not see a list of networks in the area including neighbours' networks, which I do normally on machines in the house.
The connection is working fine with the other computers in the house, which are laptops. Thanks for any pointers. If I need to supply more information, please say and I will try. Itsmejudith ( talk) 13:06, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
I often find myself wanting to see the state of the current web page, before I refreshed it. The back arrow doesn't do this, it takes me to the previous page, not the previous state of the current page. Here are some examples:
1) I'm viewing the weather at WeatherUndergound.com, and refresh the page, but they often remove the forecast for that night's low before that night is over. So, I want to go back and see the forecast low.
2) More generally, I refresh a page, and just as the old page disappears, I see something on it I want to see, which is absent from the refreshed version.
3) I refresh the page and get some type of error explaining why the page can't be displayed. I'd prefer to go back, since the old page is better than no page.
So, is there any way to do this ? I am on Windows XP SP3 and use Firefox, but also have Opera and IE. StuRat ( talk) 17:11, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

I have two accounts on my Windows 7 Home Premium desktop. One is my admin account and the other account, I would like to log into via remote desktop from a thin client running Windows XP Embedded. I can log into my admin account from the thin client but when I try to log into my Kitchen account, I get the following error:
To log on to this remote computer, you must be granted the Allow log on through Terminal Services right. By default, members of the Remote Desktop Users group have this right. If you are not a member of the Remote Desktop Users group or another group that has this right, or if the Remote Desktop User group does not have this right, you must be granted this right manually.
On Windows 7 Xtreme it would be a relatively simple procedure using gpedit.msc (the local group policy editor). The working classes however don't have this snap-in. It was suggested to me that the settings might be stored in registry keys but I'm not sure that's true. I've read it's possible to make a registry backup, change a setting and make another registry backup to compare automatically with the first in order to find out what keys changed. Is there anyone who could do that for me (need Windows Pro or Ultimate)? 94.1.194.66 ( talk) 17:55, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
System error 1376 has occurred.
The specified local group does not exist.
I don't suppose creating the group would help? Could it be that Microsoft simply don't want the likes of me remotely logging into non-admin accounts? I'm going to try creating the group now (also at the command prompt.

Edit: Curses! Foiled again! I'm still getting the original error when trying to log on with 'Kitchen'. My guess is that simply creating the user group, as I did, does not give the group all the rights and so on that it has on a Windows Pro or Ultimate installation.

Hi Ben, thanks again. I've pasted the contents of my RDP file here. It doesn't have any mention of an admin parameter. There's also no -admin switch being applied to the shortcut I use to start the RDC interface.
I forgot my laptop today so I will try logging in from a regular Win 7 machine tomorrow.
I actually added Kitchen to the group Remote Desktop Users (which I granted permissions using NTrights.exe) already but to no avail.
I have the "Event Viewer" open and will need some time to comprehend it. Thanks again for your help. Sean. 90.202.221.214 ( talk) 23:37, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
