VISTA Access
I joined a VISTA Business edition to my domain and it applied all GPO's
correctly, making DOMAIN USERS part of the LOCAL ADMINISTRATORS group. I
log on as a Doamin Member but when trying to access certain directories, or
install application I am either denied access or prompted to ALLOW action,
etc...
How can I control this behavior?

2 Strange UAC quirks
Okay... so i'm running with UAC enabled now (actually always was, just
changed from no-prompt to prompt)...
Now, i have two funny little quirks to pick on, and maybe someone knows why,
or how to fix these.
1st, just a silly quirk. ... I have two shortcuts - one to Sql Server 2005
Management Console, and one to PL/SQL Developer (an ORACLE developer tool).
Both programs have problems w...

.net 1.1 EXE in startup folder on VISTA
Our application installs a .NET 1.1 EXE created with VB.NET into the startup
folder on the PC. This works perfectly on Win98SE and XP. If the User
Access Control is OFF on Vista, it also works perfectly there. However, if
the UAC is on, the program is BLOCKED.

NTFS Encryption / Smartcard
Hi,
I am trying to store the certificates for NTFS Encryption on the smartcards
of my user. It took me quite long to find a CSP which is capable of doing
so. So far it is working now but now I have some questions regarding NTFS
encryption.
Im am still experimenting around. First I create an encrypted folder, then I
export the encryption certificate and import it into the smartcard and

Any way to disable Heap placement randomization (ASLR) for a single executable?
Greetings,
This is more of a programming question, and doesn't appear to quite
fit into this newsgroup. Please feel free to direct me to a more
appropriate forum (if one exists).
I have an application (compiler) which dumps its whole parse
tree into a file, and then re-loads it later (for precompiled
header processing), via MapViewOfFileEx().
Because the parse tree contains pointers, ...

Application maifests and UAC
Hi!
Tell me if I got this right!
If an application has an application manifest for Vista then folder and
registry vistualization is automatically turned off, and the application will
fail silently if elevation isn't requested in that manifest.
If an application doesn't have a manifest, virtualization features are
activated and the application will succeed regardless of elevation or...

TPM Problem with Intel DQ965GF
Intel DQ965GF
Latest BIOS 5882

When I disable Bitlocker and want to reactive it I get an error.
All I can is to decrypt and recrypt the disk which is very time consuming.

Is this a known bug?

Program access control (like in Zone Alarm)
Hello everyone, my first post on this board.
I have just installed Vista x64, but can`t find a porper firewall
software that has the same functionality as ZoneAlarm. What I am basicly
looking for is a software that can block internet access to programs,
like prompt me first if I allow it to access the net.
ZA has a beta for x86 vista, is there anything out ther for Vista x64?

Recommend Anti-Spyware app for VISTA
Use to run Spysweeper and loved it. Just upgraded to Vista 64bit, and
Spysweeper no longer works with 64bit version.
A) Are there any true 64bit AntiSpyware apps out there?
B) If not, which 32bit works with 64bit vista and is recommended? I've
heard a lot of pro/cons on Ad-Aware SE Professional.

I would like to find the anti-virus software that's effective but uses the

Bitlocker & offline defrag apps
Thought i'd share this.
Sometimes the offline defrag facility in some 3rd party defrag apps doesn't
work on 3rd party encrypted volumes.
One reason for this is that the defrag app cannot lock the drive.
I had been told that Perfectdisk offline defrag couldn't defrag a Bitlocker
encrypted volume & that isn't true.
Perfectdisk offline defrag will defrag the C volume without problems, but i...
