If problem persists contact your sys administrator
If the problem persists contact your systems administrator. When the sys admin doesn't know who does he contact? Windrivers Forum. This is a lot better resource then the shelf of books or hours of hold time with tech support. Thanks to all of you who post. Being sys admin isn't such a lonely job anymore

As a sys admin, I hate that error message, too!

This is funny I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets annoyed at that. As a matter of fact it drives me crazy, because usually you see it doing something that a normal luser should not be doing.

But as an independent consultant, it would be pretty cool to hack the error message to read, "If problem persists contact Sowulo at xxx-xxx-xxxx"

Sowulo, It'd be possible with Borland Resouce editor(FreeWare). If you can find the resource file with that dialog box in it you could put anything it there.

I hate it too, because someone called me and said "I'm contacting my sys admin", so I hung up on them!

You can use any Hex editor, (I use HexEditor v3.1) and open the explorer.exe file. Towards the end is a list of many of the different error messages windows produces, you can modify any of them as long as the number of characters remains the same.
