View 4 RepliesIs it possible to obtain a comprehensive listing of servers and interpreters that are a normal part of the Windows Vista Operating System? These are the only kinds of programs I expect the Security updates to be fixing.
Servers = Programs included with the OS which accepts commands from the Internet or LAN external to My Computer. Interpreters = Programs which will execute any kind of source code whatsoever like HyperTextMarkUpLanguage HTML or Basic or C+ or Fortran or whatever.
I know of no other kinds of programs unless you can tell me now that may work ndependent of User Control. If I could ID these rouge programs running in the background it would be better than the security updates themselves.
I just was wondering what is a "proxy"? Im using wireless router can I use a proxy? Why do people use proxy? Can there be consequences with using it? Were can I find a proxy?
View 8 Replies View RelatedWhen I login to Vista x64 (this doesn't happen on Vista x86), about every third time I get a proxy login message. Since I don't have a proxy server and the login box says that the server is 0.0.0.0, it is obviously a bug. how to turn this off? I have already disabled "Detect Proxy Server" in Internet Options.

behind a proxy server?
i used advanced vista optimiser to give my laptop a good clean out as i do every week. but this time when i went to log on the diagnostic comes and says either change proxy settings or try resetting local connection setting. i tried resetting many a time which as done no good. web address bar states where its going but the diag box comes on again.so in the mean time while this is all going on a new tab keeps on opening by its self and saying the same thing,this started to happen before i cleaned my l.p but it was just redirecting to a blank page.
that is why i did the clean.anyhow resetting the lan did not work so i reset the internet expolorer in the tools on the bar. which as worked but the same thing is still happening with the tab ,but now its redirecting to all the freebiee sites and it will not stop. i have spyware-adware-trojan software on my l.p and still no good it did pick up 3 infections which it sorted out, its driving me f*&^%*ng nuts:mad::mad:
Is it possible to use more than one SMTP server in Windows Mail? I'm working on my notebook on different locations with different internet providers. I now have to switch manually from server each time I want to send mail. I want Windows Mail to check witch preferred SMTP server is available and use that one.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to set WIN MAIL so that it doesn't open a post when I connect to a server? In Outlook Express IIRC when I connected to a server it didn't open anything until I actually selected a message. WIN MAIL seems to open almost any post on the server at random. It's not the last post I read and I'm not even sure it's one that I have read in the past--it just seems pretty random. I'd just like it to sit there with the preview pane blank until I select a message. Is there any way to have that happen?

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen using the email set-up wizard I come to a screen that says:
Set up e-mail servers
Incoming e-mail server type:
(drop down menu w/choice of POP3, IMAP or HTTP)
Incoming mail (POP3 or IMAP) server:
(blank space)
Outgoing e-mail server (SMTP) name:
(blank space)
(box)Outgoing server requires authentication
how to fill this out? I have a WI-FI connection that is actually my neighbors service (they are friends and gave their approval for us to use it). Sorry to be so detailed but I noticed that others who posted similar Q's but were less so (detailed) got either vague answers or answers I didnt understand.
My ISP is deleting this and most groups from their news service. What choices do I have for a replacement News Service. Obviously FREE is preferred, but a good service is more important.

I can load TF2, but can not connect to any servers! Does this have anything to do w/ using unsigned network drivers? (using vista 64 ultimate)
View 4 Replies View RelatedI really don't like Vista and have had nothing but trouble getting it connected. I tried connecting it wirelessly to my AirPort wireless and it would connect and could see everything on the network including the gateway, but would go no further.
I then tried a wired connection using all the same numbers (except the last one) that I have on my other desktops at home (3 XPs and 1 2000). Again, it sees the local network fine but will not go out the gateway. Cannot ping the DNS servers. I know it isn't the wire. I plug it directly back in my computer and it works fine. The route print looks fine (except for all the On-links under the Gateway). I tried uninstalling the Norton Internet Security to see if that was a problem and making sure the Microsoft Firewall was off. Still can't get out of the local network. I never had this kind of problem with my XPs.
I have no clue what POP3 Servers are for incoming mail. (in reference to starting outlook on a new laptop, it ask which pop3 server im using, What is this question refering to? Also for my outgoing SMTP, What does that mean? What are mine? Im trying to use YAHOO. OR Gmail, Whichevers better

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have one Vista PC that is being completely uncooperative.We have a bunch of computer connected through a router, some xp, acouple Vista.The best computer is an XP one, so I want to use it as a server for asmall upcoming LAN party. All computers can see and join the server for various games...all except this Asus Laptop with Vista!
I have firewalls shut off for the server computer and this laptop. I have the network on the laptop set to Private. On the laptop, I canactually see the XP computer. I can even open up and download shared files from it!
Regardless, I cannot see or manually connect to IP for any other server in the network (the XP or others...even the other Vista). This computer ust refuses. I have a LAN party scheduled for tomorrow and I'mfreaking out that some of the vista computers won't work.
Used to access my Hotmail account using Windows Mail. After re-installing my O/S, Windows Vista Home Premium, I can no longer set this up. When I get to the point where it asks for my e-mail address I input this, click on next, and the message "Windows Mail no longer supports the http servers used by Hotmail.......". I remember this happened when I bought my computer but managed to get round it, but can't remember how. I have a paid subscription to Windows Live Onecare and believe this is something to do with the "paid " subscription referred to on other threads.
