I cannot view in full screen anymore.I created a website that lets a user enter their name and social # and then choose a test in 1 of 3 languages. Once you choose a language, a new browser window opens and the test/information is displayed in this new window.

When i open any link with "open in new window" the new window is not full size screen window.Of course i dragged it by mouse many times and that should fix it later.It means it should be opened as it had been dragged,but that's never happened though i dragged it about a hundred time as a full screen size.What is the wrong here?

I just replaced my old Windows 2000 HD with a newly purchased HD and installed Windows XP Pro/SP2 with all the latest updates from MS.When opened this web page by placing cursor on the line and click, the Google page appears briefly on the myWin.doc window but immediately closes and opens a new, different size window for the Google web page. In the old Windows 2000, the Google page remains opened on the same window overlapping the myWin.doc window and no new window is opened.

A friend brought over a dell with windows xp.She goes to college and also has this computer at home.Well,seems that a family member visited some sites and now she has unwanted popups.She wanted me to reformat this for her.I do not believe reformatting will solve the problem.I was considering cleaning off all the temp files,install spybot and adaware,and installing a good popup stopper.

I have windows XP and Automatic Updates on my computer were set off for two months. Now that I'm back at home I turned on the Automatic Updates again, I selected the 'Notify me but don't automatically install them' option. After that, 5 updates where available to download, I only selected 4 of them. When I turned off my computer so that it could download the new updates, it started to download 71 updates. I did not let my computer download them since i do not know where did the other 67 updates come from. And I'm worried that they my use all the space I have left on my local disk (c). The capacity of my c disk is 9.31 GB, I have used 6.38 GB, and I only have 2.92 GB of free space. What can I do, I would like to know more about the 67 updated that I did not selected but I do not know how to see these updates and change them or cancel them. For now I will just turn of my computer with out downloading these updates.

I turned my computer on and 7 new icons appeared on my desktop (they don't appear to be shortcuts) advertising Poker, Card Games, Printer Cartridges, Casino Online, Bingo, Website Hosting. It won?t allow me to delete, drag, right click, or search for them. I have also done a search in DOS under my username/desktop with no luck, I tried the desktop cleanup again they were not listed, I have scanned with Norton Ad-aware and spybot search and destroy, but still they remain. The icons could not be found in my C:Documents and SettingsUserDesktop even with show hidden on.
The icons do not appear in safe mode, and since I have no idea where they are on my computer as I cannot search for them, I could not remove them in safe mode. The icons just link to web sites, so they are not on add-remove progs either. I'm running Windows XP Pro. **UPDATE** 2 IEXPLORE.EXE were found open in processess, when I tried to end one of them, all the icons vanished for a second then popped back up and IEXPLORE.EXE remained in processes, I use firefox not IE !!.. I have no idea what this means, maybe someone will know what to do now?

My daughter downloaded a game ( Carmen San diego) awhile back. She decided she didn't want it anymore. She went into add/remove programs and removed it. The shortcut is still on the desktop and when she tries to delete it she gets a messages that it cannot be deleted because it is either write protected or in use with another program.

I had a program (Hot Keyboard Pro) that I no longer wanted. It did not appear in the Control Panel "Add Or Remove Programs" list and there was no Uninstall option in the program folder, so I attempted to delete the folder and all of its contents but was informed by XP that access to this one dll (hkshext.dll) was denied, and that it might be in use. The Command Line del command responded in the same manner and the Command Line attrib command yields no enlightening information. How might I determine what/who is using this dll and/or how might I remove it? No great import, I suppose, if I just leave it there in the otherwise empty Hot Keyboard Pro folder.

If you want to remove some additional programs that are installed with windows but are not initially visible in Add / Remove, edit a file called "C:WINDOWSINFSYSOC.INF".In there you will find a listing of programs, and you will note that some programs have the word 'hide' at the end.Now when you open Add-Remove Windows Components, you will see a new choice, in this example, "Windows Messenger"

I can't seem to get rid of the remnants some Nokia programs that my son installed on the PC.
They wouldn't uninstall using the conventional method so I just deleted the folders and used Registry Medic to clean up the mess.
The only thing left is in the add/remove programs list.
I have gone in the registry and in the 'uninstall section' removed all things 'Nokia' but still they remain.

When I turn my laptop, after entering my password, I get a picture on my screen which appears then disappears just before the desktop screen loads up. This picture used to be my desktop picture many months ago. I have changed the desktop photo several times and this same old picture keeps showing up. I have even deleted it from my laptop. How do I get rid of it as I cant find the picture anywhere on my pc. I have tried System restore also. I am using windows XP Home edition on a Sony Vaio, Intel Pentium 4 Processor. I don't know any of the other spec's of my laptop.

Custom desktop, two 250 GB HD, Intel2 duo @ 2.33 GHz, XP. I bought this computer just last week so I am in total immersed in learning 10 hours a day. (Also have a new laptop running Vista - I must be a masochist).
I'll be bombarding you with questions in the weeks ahead. How do I remove unwanted icons from systray?
1) The HP printer icon is useless. There is no option to remove it from systray in properties.
2) The green icon is a "Safely remove device" service that refers to an earlier mistake I made installing my printer. I have no idea how to get rid of it.
I'm willing and capable of doing Registry hacks if necessary.

I keep getting the same 6 icons popping up on my desktop at random. I have run Spy Bot and Ad Aware and neither one can get rid of these annoying icons. I delete them and they just come back within a short period of time.

I have an HP printer. After I open and work with HP Gallery, it causes strange icons to appear on my desktop--as many as 30 or more, sometimes. Some of them are labeled with a numeral; 1, 2, 3 etc. Others are labeled "Directory Map". One is labeled "last-write". When I open this one, my Notepad page appears, with the date and time showing the time I opened the HP Gallery. Most labeled with a number allow me to Preview them, but "No Preview Is Available" appears when I click on Preview. Others labeled with a number and all labeled Directory Map, allow me to Open them. When I do, a page appears, filled with words and short phrases; many of them relate to "gallery" and "documents and settings". Does anyone know what causes this, and how I can prevent it? It is a nuisance to send them to the recycle bin each time I leave the HP gallery.
