Possible Conclusion:

A frozen mouse has got to eat so poster obviously fed the mouse some cheese. Most probably warm toasted cheese and with a glass of USB port.

LOL ExecLine! The mouse isn't called Big Al..but then it would probably need Armagnac to revive!

Hi, sometimes i cant get onto the internet .one suggestion was that the router to pc wire could be twisted i sorted this and there is an improvement. but it still happens thank you .

Welcome to "c0ck-up" time.

I inadvertently disabled my customer account on my dell laptop, and needless to say I can't now get in when I boot up. Nor will it let me in as administrator. How can I get round it or is it a case of re-installing XP?

Thanks

I'm not sure how to solve your problem.

However, if it happened to me, I'd ring my home town experts at

http://www.computerdoctors.uk.net/care/index.htm

I guess you aren't a customer of theirs (yet?) but, because they are so phenominally extremely helpful, perhaps you might well be soon.

As you can see they can give you pointers over the phone and maybe sometimes even remotely take over control of your computer.

Their service will cost you 84 for a full year. To get a 'student geek type bod' out to your home (if you even know one) could cost you 30 to 50. I think 84 is utterly brilliant value!

A damaged cable could be a problem, but a good ethernet cable is capable of speeds 2o times that of broadband so it is not often apparent.

If it is the cable, you are unlikely to be able to fix it so get a new one. One way to check the cable is to log in to the management console of your ADSL router. If that loads OK then it is more likely to be a broadband problem.

Check out this site for a utility to reset the Administrator password.

Thank you Exec & Optimist.

I've downloaded the utility and will have a go tomorrow

Deleted as fault appears to have sorted itself out. Sorry if anyone had started to waste time on my original post.

Exec & Optimist.

The utility you suggested has worked a treat. It took me a little while to get my head round it and summon up the bottle to have a go. When I did I was pretty simple & straightforward and worked a treat.

Thanks very much for your help, it's saved me the hassle of having to re-install and reload everything. Much appreciated.

It's not until you do your internet banking to transfer some funds to someone for an internet purchase and your wife, who is sat at the side of you takes the PIN call from the bank and deals with it, that you later begin to realise about the kind of world in which we are living in.

Can anyone spot anything wrong with a situation such as this?

Of course. You shouldn't have given your wife access to your money.

Close.

Even though the bank are using a robotic caller/answering facility for a 'transfers and payments' call, they are obviously using some other sort of tool or facility which can tell that another person, other than the caller, is in close proximity to the caller. Perhaps it cuts in and acts if it hears another voice, a voice other than the caller's, on the line.

It's no good the gentleman of the house being online doing some online banking, such as a trasfer and payment, particularly to 'another person' and his wife taking and dealing with the bank's security telephone call to acknowledge receipt of the online received PIN.

What can happen?

Well, in our case, we got a block put on our online transfers to 'another person'.

We can pay the gas bill or similar but 'Forget it Kayak!' You will just have to put up with telephone banking if you want me to send you any monies. :-(

Not that telephone banking is worse. In fact, it is better. You cannot yet do 'Faster Payments' with online banking. Phone banking is also 24/7 and you can do it outside banking hours and also to a great extent. Payments generally take 2 hrs or less to reach the recipient. But do make sure no other voices can be heard by the bank's robotic facilities or call tools. It compromises security and, without telling you why, what or when, the transaction might not go ahead - even though you think it has gone ahead OK!!!! - and the bank might not tell you about the block they've put on your account.

Note that Online banking transfers and payments, even from one branch of a bank to another of the same bank, can often take all of three to four days.

Excel - I use First Direct and pay my bills through the fast pay service online.

In fact the most dramatic example, was when I received my PIN generator from Tescos having opened a deposit account up, and I tested it by sending 1 back to my FD account.

As soon as I sent it, I coincidentally logged onto my FD site to check my current account and pay my bills etc and was astonished to see the 1 was there - within 60 seconds !

The thing about the additional voices on the line being detected does sound more than a little unlikely. I suspect that there is a simpler explanation like a noisy line or difficulty with your wife's accent perhaps?
