Does it get this Quoted Printable effect because it was added like that?]
hi robert...thanx for the reply but unfortunately i'm not that technically advanced.
after getting to the cmd promt i'm not sure if what you wanted me to enter
was typed correctly in your reply message.
Yes. You could have copied and pasted the entire line:
netstat -anop tcp | sort /+70
That line is what is known as a command pipeline, where the output of
the first command is treated as an input file for the second command.
The second command is just a convenience to try to simplify the manual
analysis by grouping connections by PID. Also the P switch and the TCP
parameter are meant to help simplify the analysis (e.g. by removing UDP
connections from the output.) Therefore, if you prefer you could reduce
the command to:
netstat -ano
and still be able to do the manual analysis that I'm suggesting
(and that the previous poster did.)
The second command tasklist needs to be entered separately.
I previously found that listing other multi-command suggestions
apparently caused novices such as yourself confusion by not
separating the commands by extra lines and/or the word AND
and indenting the commands to try to make that distinction.
Otherwise I would still be giving them as they would be entered
in the cmd window, one per line, unindented.
i guess putting it in less technical terms and showing me what to look for
would help me out alot.
I will try to help if you ask questions. I will not rewrite what I have written
just guessing what your reading comprehension difficulty might be.
i really appreciate the help. along with the problem i have,
my scrolling is not smooth anymore even tho smooth scroll
is checked in the advanced setup.....
That may be a more significant symptom then.
E.g. it could indicate that you have an out of control process
sucking up CPU utilization and thus causing general performance
problems. Use Task Manager to check for that possibility.
I can't remember which columns are the default with that tool.
I have them all enabled (e.g. using TM's View, Select columns...
dialog). Press Ctrl-Shift-Esc and try that too then use the Processes
tab, and sort by the CPU Usage column. If something other than
System Idle Process is running at greater than 50% you would
have your likely culprit for this scenario. Another related symptom
which might be less obvious but equally invasive would be a process
which is "thrashing" as seen by indicators such as page faults, memory usage, etc.)
no microsoft updates will download or install; i guess because of the ie problem.....
Perhaps. Others who aren't having your performance issues
have problems accessing WU/AU though; so it could be a separate issue.
when i try to search file and folders not even the entire page comes up,
just the dog and no text or text boxes (to enter what you're searching for etc)...
also if i were to try a system restore the system restore box comes up with
just an outline... no test or images..... this is all very strange.
Sounds like your problems are more serious than just an issue
with IE.
BTW please DO NOT overtype or append to previous post's lines.
Especially for a web interface poster such as yourself
it can be very misleading. E.g. only if you click on
