connected to it. Everything network wise seems to work OK. I have a wired
desktop and 3 wireless notebooks that can all connect to the internet through

some security and I can't get to it. I thought I had the IP for it set to

Why can't I open file attachments entitled wwinmailnn.dat?
Colleagues have been sending me Word documents which purvey through

On my complaint, they have been translating said documents into PDFs,

I think it has to do either with my Eudora settings, or a Eudora bug, or

We fitted a wireless PCI card into our son's PC to enable him to connect.
It installed fine, connected to the network - and the logo on the taskbar is

1394 and LAN
I was reading through a number of articles - as I usually do before asking

I have no LAN connection icon in my Network Connections. 1394 is there but
as I found out in other articles this is NOT a LAN. The 1394 connection tells
me that it's connected at 400Mbps which is strange because currently my

Then turned to a problem she had been having previous to the infections, and
which could well be related. In safe mode, everything works as expected.
Network access is fine and can run network tools such as ipconfig, netsh etc.

pings faster then 1s?
want to measure the latency on a LAN as traffic increases. Is there a way
to make a continuous ping occur faster then once/second? Or is there
another instruction that I can use to send a short message from one NIC to
another on a LAN with a settable frequency of occurrence? My plan is to use
a sniffer, WireShark to measure the round trip time between each ping and
the response.
