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.
Yeah.. I really HATE this kind of error messages too! This makes me LOVE Windrivers, though...
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.
I can't wait to mess with this...ThanksQuote:

No prob, I've been having loads of fun with it myself.
