Hi all

Have a problem and was wondering if anyone can enlighten me.

I am running W2K server SP2. When double clicking the 'setup.exe' to
install applications, all I get is an hour glass (briefly) and then
nothing, but 'setup.exe' remains in the process list consuming 1MB of
memory, but no processor time.

Anyone have experience of this / know how to fix it? I have ensured
that my 'temp' directories are empty

Cheers

X-No-Archive: Yes

**** off Mike, all you are doing is proving that *you* can't drop something.

No, Brian. *YOU* accused me, and when I challenged you, you're
not man enough to answer that challenge. You just run away.

Why should I drop an accusation against me? There, that's another
question for you. Are you man enough to answer both?

Take your personal rant else where - it's too darn hot to chuff about

What you are looking for matters not at all. This is a usenet newsgroup, not
your personal mailing list.

http://www.duke.edu/eng169s2/group4/...nglish/map.htm

"Evangelism:

Everyone is tempted from time to time to evangelize, to stride boldly into the
enemy's camp and throw down the gauntlet. We will never see the end of people
who pop up on comp.sys.intel praising Macs and Amigas; who send mail to the
SKEPTIC list that flying saucers really, truly do exist; who enlighten the
Buddhist newsgroups that they're all bound for hell, and on and on.

In the entire history of the net, no one has managed to do this without looking
like a complete idiot."

That would be you, in this case.

"I'd cut my losses, if I were you, and apologise. Trying to play Newsgroup
Savior will only get you killfiled, not answers."
