TIP: Speed up Windows Installs

ThC 129
Ok this is for people that want to keep their current file systems intact. If you plan on doing an upgrade or just a repair install, this can be done with a full install too but i don't recommend it because it can leave some unwanted files and might cause problems.

Locking your workstation.

Cynan
Is there anyway to lock your workstation in XP? Control-Alt-Delete just brings up the Task List, and beats me if I can see an option for it. The help still refers to 2K too. Grrr. One more thing while I'm here, I've heard ppl say the performance matches that of 2K, but for me, I find that its quite a lot more sluggish.

Can I 'share' Outlook messages with 2 computers

lager_brains
Hi, I have two computers connected together in a small network, and which I can toggle between using a KVM switch box. Is there a way I can 'share' my outlook messages. In other words from which ever computer I open Outlook, I'd like to see the same messages, same contacts etc etc.
