Having problems configuring component COM Security on a Windows 7 system. "Edit Limits" buttons are disabled.

When I select the Com Security Tab from the Components / My Computer Properties page, I cannot modify the "edit limits" on either "access Permissions" or "Launch and Activation Permissions". Both buttons are greyed out and
will not allow selection. I have looked at the DCOM local security policies and added users with permissions to those groups but still no luck. All the help points to server systems but no answer seems to make any sense. I have restarted many times to make
sure the security changes were taken.

Hi,
This issue may caused by restrictive DCOM permission settings: How to Configure DCOM Permissions for Configuration Manager Console Connections
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb633148.aspx
If “Edit Limits” is greyed out, please check Local Security Settings (secpol.msc) for any DCOM policies: Security Settings/Local Policies/Security Options: DCOM: Machine Launch Restrictions in Security Descriptor Definition Language(SDDL) syntax. Double
click (or right click, properties), Edit Security, Add “Everyone” and check: Local Launch and Local Activation…
Please also check the following policies: Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options: DCOM: Machine Access Restrictions in Security Descriptor Definition Language (SDDL) syntax. You can use this setting to grant
access to all the computers to particular users for DCOM application in the enterprise through Group Policy. DCOM: Machine Launch Restrictions in Security Descriptor Definition Language (SDDL) syntax. You can use this setting to grant launch or activation
permissions to all the computers to particular users for DCOM application in the enterprise through Group Policy These polices are used to manage the computer-wide ACLs in an enterprise. When we enable these policies the following registry keys will be created
in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsNT\DCOM MachineAccessRestriction
MachineLaunchRestriction
Hope it helps.

GPO Security Zones and Content Ratings "Modify Settings" buttons are disabled

Task: Trying to modify a GPO so that specific users who logon to Remote Desktop Servers will have a lower Internet security level for Internet Explorer.
We have two Windows Server 2008 Domain Controllers, when I access the GPO using the Group Policy Management Console and Editor on either of the two Domain Controllers, then navigate to User Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer
Maintenance > Security > Security Zones and Content Ratings, the available "Modify Settings" buttons are both disabled.
I've read through several forum posts relating to this and the closest solution mentioned was to turn off IE ESC for Administrators on both Domain Controllers. I've done this and it nothing has changed as a result. Is there a way enable the "Modify Settings"
buttons, or is there another way to achieve the task mentioned at the top of this post?

Hi,
We need to import these settings before we modify them.
To import security zones and privacy settings from our computer using IEM:
Click
Import the current security zones and privacy settings
To import content ratings from our computer:
Click
Import the current Content Ratings settings
Regarding how to configure Security Zones and Content Ratings, the following article can be referred to for more information.

I am having problems configuring airport express with time capsule

Hi,
I am having problems setting up airport express (old version) with time capsule. It was working perfectly fine with my old router, Airport Extreme (b/g).
I have tried to reset the Airport Express, and now I am having problems finding it in my personal networks. Not too sure what exactly is going on, other than it was working less than a day ago, and now I can't even locate it on the network to configure.
Anyone have any suggestions? I have already tried a hard reset, and no luck so far.

There are 3 types of resets.
1. Soft
2. Hard
3. Factory
Try a factory reset.

Having problems configuring and testing FieldPoint modules with MAX 3.0.

I have a FP-1000 and FP-AO-200 connected together. MAX is able to find the FP-1000 and communicate with it. The FP-AO-200 POWER and READY lights are on.
MAX does not find the FP-AO-200 when I invoke "Find Devices". I can manually define it using "Create New Device". When I attempt to test a FP-AO-200 channel using the Write function in "Items Configuration" I get the following error message: "The module or item addressed does not exist".
I am also not able to write to any FP-AO-200 channels in LabVIEW 7.0.
Any ideas what is wrong?

I would check the pins on the FP-1000, between the modules for bent or pushed in pins. Then, I would make sure the AO module is seated correctly in the Terminal Base.
If that's not it, try a different AO module and/or a different TB, to see which is the culprit. The AO module should show up when you do "Find Devices".

Those having problems connecting to AirPort Extreme/Express in Windows XP

Today, I just bought an AirPort Extreme and had no problems setting it up and connecting to it in Mac OS X. Well, I booted Windows via Boot Camp and wasn't able to connect to it at all. I had no idea why when my network was being broadcast and had a very strong signal. Well, I did some searching and found out the cause. Well, I had my network secured via WPA2. XP does not support WPA2. Microsoft released a Hotfix that addresses this problem.
This website explained the problem.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305275
This website is where you can download the hotfix.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917021
After I downloaded that hotfix, I was able to connect to my AirPort Extreme in Windows.

It sounds like your room mate has set up WEP security on this base station. If you cannot convince her to use WPA (a more secure protocol that is also less problematic to use cross-platform) take a look at the advice and tips for Windows XP and Vista found at http://tech.ifelix.net/airport.html

I am having problems downloading files from the web. After a number of files are downloaded, the system become sluggish, and then hangs. I traced the problem to the download history file: downloads.sqlite.

After downloading a number of 1.0 MB files, the system became very sluggish, and I started to get lots of (Not Responding) messages when trying to download or just use Firefox for browsing. Using Performance Monitor, I observed that the Firefox executable was growing larger and larger - up to as large as 1.2 GB on a system with 2.0 GB memory. Page faults were off the chart.
Looking for a similar problem, I found one that discussed the downloads.sqlite file becoming corrupted. I first noticed that this file was over 600 MB in size, so I deleted it. I then downloaded additional files, and observed that the new downloads.sqlite file would increase in size by about 150% of the size of each file that was downloaded. Once it would get up to 500 MB in size, the system started slowing down again.
I don't know the purpose of this file, but it appears that it keeps a full copy of every file downloaded, which may be the function of a download history file, but it does not seem correct that the file should grow in size without limit, and thus impact the system.
I would also appear that the Firefox executable is trying to read the entire contents of this file each time a new file is downloaded, which does not seem right.
Temporary fix is to periodically delete the downloads.sqlite file when it gets too large and starts impacting performance.. Apparently it is smart enough to open a new file if the old one is not found. I am not sure what the correct behavior for this file should be. Apparently is does not re-initialize when a new Firefox session is initiated.
Please feel free to contact me if more information is desired. I'm not sure what details you might need to troubleshoot this type of problem.

Hi Katy, and a warm welcome to the forums!
What is the exact name of the file?
Is it aim.bin?
Which requires either Stuffit Expander, or the Unarchiver to deflate.

How to securely workaround problem w/ ThinkVantage Client Security PW MGR & Windows PW Chg

For those of you who have an authentication problem with ThinkVantage Password Manager after changing your Windows password, I would recommend uninstalling the Client Security - Password Manager application (if you just need the Password Manager and not the entire security suite) and install the Lenovo Password Manager.
It would help to have an exported list of your passwords so you can re-import them into the new Lenovo Password Manager. If you don't have an exported list and are locked out of ThinkVantage Password Manager, click on the box "I forgot my password" and answer your three security questions (if you enabled that feature during setup), then you can open the Password Manager and export your list.
(Soapbox On: it would have been nice if someone had recommended this as an option instead of shutting down discussion by saying we don't talk about subverting passwords. I understand that is taboo, however other options should have been offered which are "kosher" as the above. Soapbox Off.)

Been away working, now back...
It was an HP8500 Printer that started all of this. I find it difficult to believe that a (simple?) printer install could do so much collateral damage...
BACK TO MY ORIGINAL QUESTION - How do I reset CSS? Per furnished Lenovo documentation, (found on the hard drive) CSS was never installed on Windows 7 machines (for some Lenovo reason). I can export PWs to external drive but still have no idea how to launch the CSS files (of which several executable files came pre-loaded on my machine).
As far as being locked out of files, Finale composition software now says (upon trying to open files) "You don't have permission to open this file. Contact the file owner or administrator to obtain permission.."
Worst case, I can re-build my Finale composiitons, but I'm still annoyed with the Lenovo log-in screen constantly asking me to enter a password that I don't know!
I am very dissapointed with purchased LENOVO WARRANTY SUPPORT - the people I've talked to have no idea about what I'm trying to explain to them.

Having problems with Labview 7.0 after installing Windows XP Pro

After updating Windows XP Pro from Windows 98, my programs give me the following error:
The procedure entry point SUnMapLS_IP_EBP_12 could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll
I tried reinstalling Labview 7.0, but to no avail.

Hello Becky,
I performed all the windows xp updates when I installed xp.
Our computer has labview 6.0 and 6.1 on it. I thought maybe they were causing a problem, so I tried uninstalling them. I downloaded msiblast and tried to remove Labview 6.0 and 6.1, but since they used to be on a network, and the university does not carry those programs anymore, they gave me errors. I was able to uninstall 7.0 and reinstall it, but it still gave me the same error as described in the original post.
I went into the registry and removed 6.0 and 6.1, but it still gives me the same error.
I need a way of removing 6.0 and 6.1 so that I can do a clean install of 7.0.
Thanks for your help,
Sergio

I am having problems getting into ICloud and Mail etc from System Preferences. Do I have a virus or malware problem?

A few months ago, I had a problem with my Mail app going offline constantly. Since then, for no apparent reason, that problem has gone away and another has taken its place. Now I cannot get into ICloud or Mail, etc. from my System Preferences on my MacBook Pro. Do I have a virus or malware? Should I immediately take my notebook in for repair or can I wait a couple of weeks until I return home?

Probably not a virus or malware, as both are relatively rare on Macs.
Probably not a hardware problem that requires "repair".
This is probably a software problem that can be fixed with a little thought and routine maintenance maneuvers and troubleshooting.
Here are some basic troubleshooting and maintenance maneuvers:
1. restarting your computer
2. repairing your hard drive When to Run First Aid in Mountain Lion's Disk Utility - For Dummies
3. repairing permissions About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature
4. starting up in safe mode OS X Mountain Lion: Start up in safe mode
5. a test user account Isolating an issue by using another user account
If you are not comfortable with this then you could take it in to your local "geniuses" at the Apple store. You could certainly wait a few weeks. Make sure you have a backup of any important documents that you don't want to lose, first.
