• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    Yeah, I tried it in root, system root, system32, everywhere I could think of. Though if you delete notepad.exe in System32 and then create a Notepad directory and try it in the few seconds before Windows can re-create Notepad.exe, then it works.

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    Strange I've never installed the HMAT CD writing update, I'll do that now and see if it re-breaks. EDIT: No change. Bizarre

    Someone on another forum reported this, can you tell me if you have any uninstalled Windows Updates?

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    This bug does exist, but it has been fixed in XP SP2. 2003 Standard does not reproduce this bug either. Apparently only Windows XP pre-SP2 will open the Notepad folder on the desktop when typing "Notepad" in Run.

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    From my thread on Genmay, this might clear up some specifics for a couple people: EDIT: Never mind. Creating a Notepad directory and then going to Start -> Run -> Notepad does not open the folder, it opens the real Notepad.

    Clearing Temporary Internet Files has no effect though, I already tried that.

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    Forgot to mention that this works with executables as well as folders, which makes it a security risk. Tested on two 2003 Standard machines, with identical results. NT4 with IE6 does NOT produce this bug.

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    And since it's a text document, the HTML default should have nothing to do with it.

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    I've tested it on Windows 2000 Pro and Windows XP Pro. I'll check a Windows 2003 box as well.

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    So far out of about...60 people maybe, only one person has not been able to reproduce it. I'm trying to pin down exactly what fixed or broke it.

    Windows/IE/Notepad bug

    I saw that, but I don't think that'll get me very far. The only reason I had a Notepad directory on my desktop is because I was collecting screenshots to make a knowledge base article about a different Notepad bug :p
