Hello,
I want to start learn HOOK, but all the tutoials I see here, is in Visual C++ 6, I prefer to start directly from Visual C++.NET.
Where can I start?
Thank's,
Itay.

I am not sure exactly what youw ant to know about hooking, so I am assuming you are looking for general info. I apologize if I am wrong in that assumption.
Perhaps a google[^] search would be in order? I did a search of hook +C#"[^] and it returned a lot of discussionary items about it.
Right off the bat it returned an article over at www.c-sharpcorner.com[^] that might fit your needs.
Good luck

I would start by right-clicking on the Command Prompt icon and selecting Properties. In there you will find the option. If my memory is completely shot, you will instead need to install TweakUI 1.3 from Microsoft to set this up.
If I wasn't sitting in front of an AMD K6-2 200MHz, 48MB RAM, Windows NT 4 Workstation beast I would check this for you and give you the correct answer.

I just got a new laptop and it came with a 30G hard drive that was partioned into 16G and 14G partions. I talked to a buddy of my in IT and he said that most of the new computers he gets in have partitioned hard drives. Does anybody know why a bunch of computer manufacturers would start partitioning hard drives at the factory? Does it increase performance?

What OS and what format (FAT32, NTFS, etc...) did you have in the system?

Hard drives are always partitioned, even when there's only one partition covering the whole drive.

I don't know of a compelling reason to partition it that way. Why not 15G and 15G? Modern filesystems (ie, not FAT16) have no trouble with a 30G partition.

No. Older versions of Windows allowed only 256 directories in the root directory, and this practice may be a holdover from those days. NTFS5.0 has no such limitations that I know of. Because so many programs install stuff on the root directory whether you want them to or not, I prefer to reserve the C: logical drive for Windows itself and all the garbage programs that don't allow an optional install point, then to install everything else on a different drive. This causes no performance hit that I've been able to detect, nor does it improve performance in any measurable way. It's just cleaner, and easier to restore if (when) a crash occurs.

For most workstations...the simple principal is to install an OS partition and a user partition. OS files stay on one, and user files on the other.
Linux has been doing this for years. Perhaps some pc mfgrs are jumping on the bandwagon.

They must feel it helps organize the drivespace for you.
If it works fine, fine.
As soon as it starts going flaky, slowing down, crashing, etc,
first thing I'd do is repartition it into 1 partition and reinstall the software.
BTW, we had a 6Gig drive arrive partitioned as 2+2+2Gig.
Obviously they used FAT16.

Where in the registry can I find the information about which is the default mail client in a machine / profile?
Thanks so much,

Check out HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Mailto\Shell\Open\Command .
I think that will do what you want.
Good luck.

Am I able to replace my Win 2000 Profesional with Win 2000 Server on my computer through installation/upgrading, while leaving everything that's already on the machine intact?

No, I don't believe that is possible.

In FAT12 & FAT16, every directory has a . and a .. subdirectory.
I seem to remember that this goes back to the old MSDOS days. Anyone know what they are or what they are for?
I'm building an embedded system to read Compact Flash cards and I've got most of the other data about FAT tables etc, but I can't find a refernece to these two directories. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Ali

The "." directory is used to reference the current directory, while the ".." directory is used to reference the parent directory of the current directory.

How do you disable and/or block the windows Messenger pop-ups from sending you spam in winXP? I don't use this function for anything. It's just a back door for spammers to tick me off. Please Help.

Try disabling (stopping and setting to manual) the 'Messenger' Service.

I want to execute a .wsf and .vbs file on a win2k box from a linux box. This script will take hell lot of parameter as well. How do I achieve this quickly. The process must not be interactive i.e should not ask for password.
I want to run this from a linux box and it should just execute the command silently.

I am sure there are more practical ways to do it, but for achieving it "quickly", the fastest way I can think of without any real code to write would be to automate the process though SSH.
I would really think about what you want to do to accomplish this, as there are SIGNFICANT security implications if you do this wrong. Anyways.... here would be a simple way to do it:
1) Install Cygwin[^] on the Windows 2000 box and ensure you install the OpenSSH daemon.
2) Set up your SSH daemon to run as a service in W2K. There is a good article on how to do that here[^]
3) Set up your SSH keys so you can SSH into the Windows box without the need for a password with the use of SSH public key authentication. You can learn a bit on how to do that by reading here[^].
4) You should now be able to execute the scripts on the W2K box by automating the call. As an example this might work for ya:
ssh user@w2kbox commandtoexecute
CAUTION: Be careful to understand the implications of setting up SSH to your server. Make sure you have clean ACLs and limit the privileges in what the account you are SSHing in can do. If you require administrative access to run the script, consider using the runas command to do this so that you only elevate privileges for the execution of the script, and nothing more.
P.S> I found the runas command to have some issues under bash in cygwin, so you might have to tinker with this for a bit.
Good luck!
