Blocking file transfers in messenger

Avalanche

I guess the subject header says it all. I'd like to know if there's a way to block people from sending and receiving files through msn/windows messenger on a Win2k Pro machine, without blocking all messages.

Sidewinder Precision Pro joystick; can't install Windows XP

PKLambooy

I have the above joy stick that used to work fine for my W98SE. It doesn't seem to load up in WXP. My CD is Sidewinder version 3. 0. I see at MS they have a version 3. 02 that is associated with W95 and W98 but isn't obvious if different from mine or works with XP.

Compatible burner for NT

hitension

I have to replace a HP 7200i burner in a NT machine here at work. It is currently being used to archive data, but due to it's lack of speed, wasn't used to often. I thought I'd just buy a Lite-on burner and put it in, but am wondering what my options are for what is compatible.

Hey, I'm having problems running this (Dos-based) game under Win2k. I don't get any error message it just exits the game window within seconds of it starting. . Anyway, many of u prolly aren't familiar with the game, so details aside, dealing with the bigger problem.

VMware Workstation dedicated NIC

adamvjackson

Hello everyone, after using VMware workstation (3. 2) for a while, I thought it might be a good idea to add a second NIC to my primary machine, only for VMware's use, so my primary adapter doesn't have to be bridged anymore.
