Just realised how few people use these (quick office poll on the use of Windows-D to minimise all windows...) So, have a look at this shortcut key list
Very simple, but Dan Bright points out that: No to all? Ever get one of those messagebox prompts with the options: Yes, Yes To All, No, Cancel? Where is No To All? I will tell you! Hold the shift button when you click no and it will apply that to all following…
I download lots of ISOs from MSDN and others for evaluating software, developing etc...To be frank, burning all these to CD is a pain. I have recently stumbled upon a great tool called Undisker - basically, it lets you treat ISOs like archives - so you can…
If you have a lot of ASP code which currently runs on a Windows 2000 server, you probably use CDONTS to send your mail...Now, if you want to migrate to Windows 2003 (or Windows XP for local dev) you'll have a problem - CDONTS no longer comes with those…
Well, went very smoothly - just got the DL off of MSDN subs downloads, mounted the iso as a disk for VMWare, fired it up in "2003 Server" config - installed perfectly! Seems to be better connecting using Terminal Services (RDP) - installing Whidbey now - gotta…

The saga continues, I can recieve mail OK, but I can't send it from my server; now, it works from the smtp local server on my main machine so I don't think it's a Firewall thing - I'm very confused! So if anyone has any idea why,please let me know!
This one drove me nuts for a while, I have an smtp server running on my server, but occasionally, the SMTP administration snapin would disappear for no particular reason. This is needless to say VERY annoying - as there's not other effective way to administer…
Now my main computer has gone odd...connecting up a telephone line has caused Windows XP to require reactivation. Microsofts' product activation doesn't let me get straight through to a human, so I have to go through entering a long number in the full…
