Maximize Internet Explorer On Opening

Right click the shortcut icon for IE next to the Start button (if using the Quick Start menu in Windows XP or Windows Vista.), choose Properties, change it from 'normal' to 'maximized'. Now open it.

Now right click any link on the page, choose Open In New Window....don't maximize it....instead, use the mouse to resize it to what you want it to be.

Now close the FIRST window you opened, and then close the new one you just resized.

Reopen IE from the shortcut icon again, and all windows from now on will be the size you chose and created.

Adding Network Shares as a Library Location

Is it possible in, Windows 7, to add a network share as a library location?

If you have your music files stored on a server on your network. When you try to add the share \\ServerName\Share as a libray location you get the error ”This folder cannot be included because it is on a share that is not indexed.”

The help link in the error message does not provide usefull information regarding this.

If you have you media files stored on a Microsoft Server you can add the share to the library if you install Microsoft Windows Search 4.0.

Once installed do not try adding the share to the library until the indexing has been completed. (You get a glowing magnifying glass in the right of the task bar.

If you use a NAS device that can not run the latest Windows Indexing service then the following may help.

"ISA server cannot load the properly page"

When you try to run Microsoft ISA Server the following error may be displayed "ISA server cannot load the property page" error detail is 0x80004005 unspecified error.

The ISA Server though maybe still working, if you restart the server you will probably still have the same problem.

Solution:
Managment console view maybe corrupt.
You need to clear out the console view settings by going to:
File>Options>Delete Files button. I then shut down the console and restarted the ISA Server Managment console and everything was back to normal.

In case youre wondering how to get into the managment console even though you get an error, just keep clicking continue until the console loads up.
