  1. I believe you can use ASSOC and FTYPE commands in a batch file to do it... There's probably a whole heap of alternative ways as well. Windows XP Commands
  2. Don't forget keyboards! Optimus Maximus keyboard
  3. Somewhere I read in a different topic that other people do the same sort of thing... but they add and remove the group from the security permissions and schedule that to run at two times (add the group and remove the group)
  4. hmm, Any come up with a solid way to get this working at a reasonable pace? Using SQL 2005, on ESX blade.. if we use it from the server, it's flawless... as soon as you try using the client, it's just ridiculously slow.
  5. Why would you want to put on a timer, the adding of a group to a group? Active Directory groups automagically update themselves when child groups are updated...
  6. I've just looked into this to prevent NetSupport School and other programs changing the DCI key to disable DirectX The way I went about it was to use the Security Tool snap-in, change the bits I wanted, then remove all the trash and deploy this to the machines using a batch file - worked very well. Batch Files: SeCEdit - Security Configuration Editor

    Fraud & Banks

    Is it actually his bank? None of my banks have my mobile number yet I keep getting people ringing up saying I maybe overdue in claiming fees back etc... I just play along with them, wasting their time.
  8. EU Playstation site has been updated now - includes a "portable ID" now... you can't do a lot with it, but it's a step towards the stuff they set out when Trophies were first mentioned. https://secure.eu.playstation.com/psn/mypsn/ http://mypsn.eu.playstation.com/psn/profile/sparkblaze.jpg
  9. Web2.0 is a term that should never ever ever ever ever be used quite frankly. It means nothing really, and that's why nobody who isn't "down with the internet" understands it. In a nutshell, anything that promotes creativity, sharing of information or any form of innovation on an already exisiting thing gets labelled as Web 2.0.... which is stupid... that makes most of the net fall into the Web 2.0 category... There's even talk of "Web 3.0"... Anything on the web current, or future, can have a beneficial impact in education, it's how you choose to use it that will dictate whether it's successful. Instead of getting kids to draw creatures and describe them in french, we can get them to play with the Spore Creature Creator... you could possibly get away with running a social networking site for your college....
  10. I'd have to leave me on, Top Gear & Scrubs... I should really watch more TV... as for Dexter... checkout the NSFW advertising poster: clicky clicky
  11. www.dontclick.it
  12. awww, webman beat me too it *runs off to find brain food*
  13. Our maths department I believe considered Nintendo DS's with Dr Kawashima's Brain Training at one point I think the cost aspect turned them away a bit.. As a department here, we have an Xbox and a PS2... but they're only used for fun since we have no educational games for them I could see a use for a Wii in PE lessons when used alongside the WiiFit board...
  14. All of Outlooks settings are Registry keys... You can possibly do it with the ADM's for Group Policy... or you in 2003 and I assume a similar function exists for 2007, you can create PRF's which have all the settings in and can be configured to execute at logon within the logon script etc... not looked at doing this yet, but will be at some point.
  15. in PHP you can just use the date() function to look up that... I think Javascript has a similar function and would work in a similar. I haven't done anything with PHP or Javascript so I'm useless to you beyond that I think you can echo ''; for PHP and a document.write() in JS... oce you've checked the date... $date = date("dmy"); if( $date = "011208" ){ echo ''; } else { echo ''; } ?>
