Windows XP - Windows Steady State works amazingly well.
Other then that... Get all the software installed. Just the way you like it, including the activation. Make an image of this system. Write image to system to verify it is working. Store image somewhere safe. Put user documents/etc on a second partition, or network.
Machine gets hosed. Reimage machine. Everything works. Drivers. Software. Create new user, and data is still available.
hah... yes, that was QUITE garbled. That is not what I meant, that there wasn't any TLD. I realize that is what my words said, however.
More clearly, I hope: "I've noticed that organizations and businesses are using facebook/wordpress for websites a lot nowadays. Without having their OWN DOMAIN NAME."
I should proof more clearly before I click on the submit button.
As websites increase in number, the typical need for more unique domains increase. If a significant number of unique names are all tried to pull from a small number of TLD's, this makes it more difficult to find an available name that fits what you are trying to do. A substantial number of domains are tied up because of the squatters.
If the REAL cost was ten bucks a year or so to keep a domain, the squatting would go down. Remember when.com was $50.00 a year? The really juicy names would still be squatted on. With business.com selling for how many millions?
If a lot of new.TLD's are opened up, then it will be easy for you to get a domain you want. Say, bobspizza.newtld. If there is a real baseline of cost that makes it unlikely that people will squat on these new domains, then they will be available for business/people/organizations to use. However,.com is STILL the king of domains, and is what people want. But increase the supply say with 100 new TLD's (or more), and the impact of.com will be lessened, and the cost of squatting will become just too much.
I've noticed that organizations and businesses are using facebook/wordpress for websites a lot nowadays. With no TLD at all.
Will be interesting to see how this all plays out.
No reinventing of the wheel. All kinds of stuff that can be used as is, or modified. Features, features, features. Easy separation of presentation / Data. Workflow.
And I hope it is RAID'ed... I have a mere 500GB storage.. but it is mirrored. Lots of data on one device without redundancy is scary. Harddrives WILL crash. EVERYTHING crashes.
A minor point but.... AVG free scans for viruses only. No Malware/Spyware/Etc is scanned/blocked.
I am curious if the malware infested machines people brought to you were running the free version, or the full version of AVG.
I have for years installed and recommended AVG free for viruses, and other software to be used for malware/spyware/etc. I am on the Avast site now, checking out the software- I'll see if I like it. Thanks for the heads up on it.
Hah... I thought I was the only one to ever see the falling blocks. I played it so much that working on equipment, driving down the road, I was putting that stuff together. Addicting!

Nice font. I just installed it and tested. I got the modified one linked at the bottom, with the straight single/double quotes.

Several things imo.

Nice troubleshooting. Glad you terminated them.
Wouldn't it only be breach of contract if it violated the terms of the contract? Not sure how YOU know what those contracts state.
I highly recommend this.
I have been deploying it, and it is working quite well.
It is very configurable as to what you want to allow and for whom. I love setting it up, and end users just CANNOT mess up the machine.
It isn't perfect, but my clients have certainly been happy with the results.

Copied this post and sent it to my brother... Good stuff, and he would agree as well!
