I am running Windows XP Pro on my home PC. When I am at the office, everyone in my house are using this computer for various purposes. I never locked my computer due to general use of my family member. Internet is available in my computer, but the problem is when I am not at home some of my family members use untrusted websites for downloading. And this download is also unnecessary and contains adult contents. So I want to stop this type of download. How can it possible without locking the  administrative user?

In my office one of user who use windows XP professional.

I configure him as a normal user, he always login by this user. I set administrative password that he never do any administrative work. Due to some software installation I gave him user as administrative right.in that times he may be change administrator password. 

I don’t know this, so after I have removed his user from administrative group, I can’t do any administrative works. 

He told me he did not change administrator password.

But it has been changed. 

So how can I remove administrator password without reinstallation windows?

How to fix a computer when there is a beep sound?

When I turned on my computer yesterday I suddenly heard a beep sound. I press the power button to turned it off again. After 5 minutes I tried to turned on again and I heard the beep sound again. I turned it off for the second time but before I open it again I checked the hardware inside the CPU and I think its all okay.

So turned on the computer again but while the computer was on its start up mode I touched Hard disk, RAM and even the Video Card. I noticed that its very hot. So I immediately turned it off again to fix it. First, I removed the RAM, video card and Hard disk and then wiped the dust that's sticks to it. Then I put it back and turned the computer.

I am running XP Pro Service Pack 2 and the shutdown time it taking quite a long time, about 2 minutes or even more. This is quite annoying when you have to reboot. It’s wasting a lot of my precious time.

I recently updated drivers for my sound and video card. Blue screen problems started to appear immediately but i resolved the issue by uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers. When i try to shut down the computer, it takes a longer time than usual. Even when i have just started the PC and shut it down immediately, the shut down time is not less than 30 seconds.

Basically, i use 3 applications frequently. Adobe Photoshop, Illustrate and Adobe Go-Live. I have also noted the following:

I'm having a weird problem with my HP laptop. I turn it off normally before I go out, but when I turn it on, it displays blurry and stretched out. It all started when I installed Yahoo Messenger 11 and if I uninstall it, everything is fine. I don't know if it's really because of the Yahoo Messenger. My friend advised me to do a system restore but I don't see any restore point.

How to replace the battery pack of a laptop?
