Bob in Northridge was asking about microsloth update. He might want to check out nLite which allows you to create, for example, a Windows XP install CD with SP2 already installed and it can be set up to install all the updates as well. I’ve done Win XP with SP2 and about 15 of the 37 updates. Getting ready to add all the other critical updates as well. Sure saves time for me.

Donald Burr of Borg says: If she is using a laptop, or a desktop with a keyboard that has a built-in touchpad, she could be changing the focus by accidentally resting her palm on the touchpad. Some touchpads are more sensitive than others. Check your Mouse control panel; depending on the touchpad’s manufacturer and the driver software it uses, there may be settings in here to adjust the touchpad’s sensitivity or activate “palm detection mode.” Some laptops, such as IBM Thinkpads, have an option that basically ignores the touchpad if the system deetects another mouse device being used (say, a USB mouse).

That advice for Fedora/Red Hat is bad. Apt-rpm is dead, and has been long replaced with yum. I highly reccomend Fedora, even with a few snafus that come out of the box (no MP3 support). These are very easily worked around. Use the faq at the site mentioned below for help there.
http://www.fedorafaq.org/
Linspire is probably the best as far as installation goes. It does cost money, $50/year for the best plan, but it literally makes installation one click. The Click-n-Run service is a web based warehouse that when you click on their running man icon it will install the software automatically then for you.
Hope this helps out!

I had the same problem where clicking on a link in WMP made my Linksys router lock up. I contacted Microsoft and they had me clear out my temp internet folder and delete all my cookies. This helped for a while. I finally dropped the Linksys and bought a Netgear router. Another thing I did that has helped with the router randomly loosing its connection was to change the IP range from the default 192.168.1.x to 192.168.10.x . For some reason this cleared up my router problem.

With regard to Hyperthreading problems and GIMP, I have had issues in the past and have been able to resolve this, using “imagecfg”. This is a Microsoft tool to force an application to just run on one (virtual) CPU. I have a small tutorial on using “imagecfg” to resolve a problem with Palm software. You can read this at: http://miataru.computing.net/pda/wwwboard/forum/1844.html
and then apply this to your problem.
Having said that, I have NO problems with GIMP on my Hyperthreaded PC, and I did NOT have to use “imagecfg” for GIMP, just for the Palm hotsync application.

Regarding the woman who’s active window was losing focus when she types…Simple question: is she using a laptop?
Common problem when typing on laptop is you can very easily and accidently touch the pointer button in the middle of the keyboard or your hand touches the touchpad and they register that as a mouse click wherever the mouse pointer is located.
Simple solution is to either be more careful when you type and where you rest your hands, or turn off the tap to indicate a mouse click setting.

To David in Mission Hills
I didn’t get to listen to that segment of the show, but thought I’d comment here to hopefully help you. I had the same problem for months getting the USB 2.0 to work on my computer after installing SP2. I would always get USB 1.1. However, I did see a misplaced page in my motherboard manual (Soyo) that solved that problem. Here is what solved it for me and should do the same for anyone else…
Once Windows Service Pack 2 is installed, go to the device manager. You should see several yellow question marks there. Remove “? Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller”. I removed everything there with a yellow question mark. Then restart your computer and the USB 2.0 will be found in the device manager and should work from there.
Hope that works for you or anyone else.

The easiest way to install programs in Linux is to use package managers. Otherwise you should read the ReadMe and INSTALL documents.
On the package managers it will depend on the distro of linux you have:
- Mandriva = URPMI
- SuSE = Yast2
- Debian = Apt-get
- Fedora = apt-get (for RPM)
- Gentoo = emerge
A good way is to find the right help, I will suggest using IRC and logging into irc.freenode.net server and type your linux distro. You can get really good live support.

>Why not just install the USB Drivers from the motherboard Disk?
Nobody supplies motherboard USB drivers for XP since XP is supposed to support it, at least Intel doesn’t, hence the need for the PCI card.

Jim — I keep waiting for The End to come due to the WMF flaw. It was a zero day exploit, and I expected whole countries offline…or at least Wal-Mart (hmmm. same difference). All I find is news about the flaw, not horror stories of destruction. I had popcorn ready and everything. :-( Definitely a Kohutek event.
Dunno about The Register. First they really leaned on Wikipedia. I count on them to be irreverent, but it got kinda mean. They’ve been sniping at Google News and Wikipedia forever, but it’s mostly been cheerful. Last week, they got after FreeBSD and then the WMF thing. They seem to be awfully crabby lately, not as much fun to read ;-)
The WMF article is logically consistent in its tone, though, arguing Occamly that WMF need not be malicious when incompetence will do. And thus consistent with the subsequent pounding.
Certainly separation of users and administrator helps, but note that The Register separately coming down on FreeBSD about the securelevel controversy is about just that. Meaning the next level of security has to be to prevent the damage possible should an attacker gain root (administrator) privilege.
Think of providing a more or less default user-as-admin. install for WinXP as the equivalent of MS providing a firewall in Service Pack 1 — but not turning it ON by default! We know why — fewer support calls for MS and their dealers. That changed in SP2. Absent Knoppix and a relatively few others, most Linuxes require separate administrator & user; default install.
Re: Windows XP SP-2 USB 2.0 problem, SP2 is supposed to support USB 2.0 but doesn’t really have the necessary drivers. I installed SP2 on my Intel D850PERC that’s supposed to have 8 USB 2.0 ports but would only work as 1.1 so I installed a Belkin F5U220 PCI card that comes with it’s own drivers. That’s a lot easier than reinstalling Windows.

To Jim. I’d say both points are accurate.
1. See Mark Russinovich on the wmf flaw:
“I’ll pick poor design. After all, there are plenty of such examples all throughout the Windows API … I’m convinced that this behavior, while intentional, is not a secret backdoor.”
http://www.sysinternals.com/blog/2006/01/inside-wmf-backdoor.html
2. Yes, it is bad policy to run as what Windows calls an “administrative” user. However, it is difficult not to, because of the way Windows has been designed (or perhaps I should have said has “grown”).
The security policies of Unix-based systems, such as Mac OS X, are far safer. On Mac OS X, the root account is disabled by default, and in the normal course of things a user would elevate his privileges temporarily to carry out “administrative” type tasks.
It’s likely that Microsoft Vista will move to a similar security model - although, even if Microsoft tries to, there is some question whether it will be possible given the need for backwards compatibility and the need to make 3rd-party software houses change the way they write code.
In the meantime, some Microsoft employees have produced a wiki that gives advice on running XP as a limited user.

I was surprised at an item about the WMF flaw on theregister.co.uk. The writer begins by debunking the idea that WMF was a deliberate scheme to open a backdoor, but then turns around and blasts MS for a ‘make everything easy for everyone’ policy as the root of most of the security problems; specifically encouraging users to run in administrave mode. Is that accurate?
