Print Target Option

teenguy
Hi All, When I right click a pic on a web page a Print Target option is available below the Save Target Option. I want to delete the Print Target option. I am using IE 5. 5. Is it possible to do so.

Win2K Security

Lotus
Is it possible to add password protection to files on the server itself, and not allow other accounts to access such files. NOT on a public drive by the way. Can I achieve this by using the NTFS partition format? I was told it was possible.

60Hz refresh rate !

Ant -|- One
Could someone tell me how to set a refresh rate over 60Hz, because it always comes back to it, is there a fix (other than PowerStrip, I don't have a license) for my RageFuryProViVo ? My screen can reach 1600*1200 res at 75Hz.

That particular blue...

Ant -|- One
I was just wondering where the 'blue color' so special to win2K (and winMe) lies within Win2k? Because I'm unable to set it back. . . Thanx for any hint, I would appreciate it much !.

Hard-drive thrashing!!

jwl812
Checking to see if anyone else is experiencing hard-drive thrashing for about 5 seconds after WinXP 2600 boots up and comes up to the desktop. It appears XP is either looking for something or is completing some kind of task after the desktop comes up.

XP, RAM and swap file

Hello, I just finished upgrading my system including mobo, cpu and hd. After the finished setup XP automatically created 1536 mb or so. . . swap file on system disk. However since I have 1 gb of ram installed i disabled the swap file alltogether.

Add/Remove Programs

Blah Blah
How would I FORCE an application that didn't install right to get out of the Add/Remove Programs thing? I uninstalled a game and now I cannot reinstall it because it keeps asking me to uninstall it when I try to install it and obviously the uninstaller isn't working correctly.

Dual monitor power options

cheets
I am running win2000 with an asus tnt2 ultra agp video card and a matrox pci video card with 2 monitors. I want the monitors to turn off after 20 mins of inactivity. I have set this in the power options, but only one monitor turns off (the one connected to the matrox card).
