Hi, I'm new to OS programming but I do know the C language. I have this code that compiles, links, and turns into a floppy image without a problem. Then I run it with the emulator BOCHS. I type kernel 200+9 into the grub prompt, then boot. The problem is nothing displays on the screen. I think this is a really beginner question, but does anyone know why it's not working?

Hi, after a spyware atack the desktop is clean and i can only use taskmanger to start other programs, if i try to start explorer.exe i got message that the file is missing, but its not missing. If i go in command prompt i can find the explorer.exe file under windows, if i delete it/rename it its showing up againg in 2-3 sec (thats normal), but when i try to run explorer.exe it tells me that the file explorer.exe is missing, if i copy explorer.exe to test.exe i can run test.exe, if i then change explorer.exe to test.exe in winlogon/shell then everything is fine and working, but i want to have explorer.exe in the winlogon/shell and not test.exe, but i have also tried to make a repair from the XP Home CD without any luck, same problem. Is the workaround with renaming the explorer.exe to test.exe and make the change in winlogon/shell any good ide? I have tried 6-7 diffrent spyware/malware/antivirus softwares to clean the pc and its now clean (i think) but what about the strange behavior...

It appears that one of the computers on a network has downloaded the cutwail bot and it is sending spam out.  The IP address is already cited on CBL lists.  Can anyone assist with removal?

We have a VMFS3 volume that is running low on space. The LUN contains several servers. It's running VMWare ESX 3.5.0 on HP blades connected to NetApp storage box. I increased the volume on the NetApp box but is it possible to increase the size of the VMFS3 volume? I know there's the "Add Extent" option but heard that is not recommended? Since it's running production file servers. I wanted to be real clear on the procedure, if it's possible. Thank you for any help.

Hi everyone, I started to implement a general method that uses the Method class to display information about the method that method was called from. The idea was to print the signature of the method but with the actual arguments shown instead of the parameters and without referring to the parameters directly (since I want to reuse the method). However I can't figure out a way to get the arguments (values of the parameters). I'm actually not even sure it can be done. Does anyone know if it can be done and if so, how? Thx. Code Snippet: <code>import java.lang.reflect.Method; public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { Test t = new Test(); String s = null; int i = 0; boolean b = false; t.saySomething(s, i, b); } public void saySomething(String s, int i, boolean b) throws NullPointerException, NumberFormatException { String methodName = new Exception().getStackTrace()[0].getMethodName(); Method method = thi...

Long story short, I ended up with a beta license on my Photoshop CS3 install (which I haven't used in quite some time). Now it's giving me a "License expired." dialog as soon as I open it, then forcing a closure. Uninstalling it seems to have no effect. Can I possible change it?

I was working on my computer and I got a blue error message screen. It said if this is the first time you received this message restart your computer.  I tried to restart my computer but the blue screen went away before i could restart my coomputer.  When all was said and done my wall paper has changed and now I have an error message that says warning spyware detected on your computer.  It also says warning Win32/adware Virtumonde and Warning Win32/Privacy Remover.m64 detected on your computer.  It also changed my wallpaper and I can not change it back.  When i go into properties there isn't an option for wallpaper or screensaver settings.

I can't seem to download the VMware-viclient.exe from the esxi server we just setup. The main web page to the esxi opens fine but when you click on the link to download the software, nothing happens. I double checked the install and all seems fine. Can i just download the client from the web?
