Task Manager

[Nate]

I re-installed Windows on my computer and I no longer have access to change
the priority for or end System processes. I used to be able to but I can't
figure out how to change the access. I am set as administrator with read,
write, and Full Control access. Can anyone tell me how to configure my XP
Home to allow me to change the priority on System processes in the Task
Manager??

I'm not sure from your post if this is your problem or not.

No. I just want to be able to end and change the priority of system
processes in the Task Manager but it won't let me! It says "Access Denied".
I am set as administrator. How do I change this??

Try running the script on line 275 lefthand side.

You may need to reboot for the changes to take effect?

With Outlook Express, which you're using...

To send your message to multiple newsgroups on the same news server, in the
New Message dialog box, click the icon next to Newsgroups. In the Pick
Newsgroups dialog box, click one or more newsgroups from the list (hold down
the CTRL key to select multiple newsgroups), and then click Add. You can
choose from all newsgroups or only those you subscribe to by clicking Show
only subscribed newsgroups.

You can send a given message to more than one newsgroup at a time only if
all the newsgroups are on the same news server. To post a message to
newsgroups on other news servers, create a separate message for each news
server.

No need to be sorry. I hope that I explained how to crosspost using OE.

Seems to be a Debug Programs privilege setting.

Q from another newbie: if the reply to a crosspost is posted on one NG
only, how do the users of the other NGs know?

When a message is properly crossposted, and not multiposted, the reply goes
to *all* of the newsgroups posted to.
