Windows 7 error 86

October 28, 2009 By Robert Owen

Windows 7 & Windows 2000  -  Error 86 when mapping drives. One of my upgrades this week to Windows 7 was from a Windows XP laptop. Following  the steps I outlined in my previous post the initial process was a breeze!  No problems at all!!  Simple, some would say,  and as everything else goes as soon as "they" said it was simple...  Something will break!  That's just how it is... If something seems easy, it will be easy!  Until you TELL someone it was easy, then all bets are off! In … [Read more...]

Got an iPhone? Better turn it off!

July 30, 2009 By Robert Owen

I just followed a tweet over to Mashable and read another article about the latest Apple security flaw. This time affecting the iPhone. Cybersecurity researchers, Charlie Miller and Collin Mulliner, have identified a vulnerability in the iPhone OS that will allow an attacker to take control of the Phone via a SMS message.  They have, supposedly, notified Apple more than a month ago about this vulnerability, but  the company still hasn’t released a patch. The two plan to publicize the … [Read more...]

Remote Desktop Slow in Vista

October 16, 2007 By Robert Owen

I am using my Vista Ultimate machine primarily now for day-to-day work.. And everything is running quite smoothly to be honest. No crashes, no freezes, no spyware.. Everything is great. I help manage SEVERAL servers across my WAN and use Remote Desktop to great effect. But, last week a new Server was added. I logged in with my trusty Remote desktop to start setting up an SFTP server. Only, this time everything was WAY WAY WAY Slow... I mean I was waiting a good thirty seconds between clicks. … [Read more...]
