I have a HP Media Center PC M7160n
with Windows XP Operating System.
I've couple of questions.
First is, I've 3 browsers, IE 8 [latest beta] + Firefox 3.03 + Google Chrome
In Firefox whenever i access certain websites that look at user-agents and determines the course of action, I keep getting websites saying "NO USER-AGENT FOUND YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ACCESS THE WEBSITE!"
So i checked it out and it seems this is true, especially when i access youtube.com and i get a blank page because it seems it can't read my user-agent.
So i got a firefox plugin to change user-agent and set it to the "DEFAULT" Mozilla Firefox agent and tried it, still nothing!
To confirm this i went on:
http://www.useragent.org/ and it gave me this result:
Then i went on http://whatsmyuseragent.com/
And got this:
Is there any way i can fix this?
Also for IE 8, when i go on hotmail.com and log in it says "Your browser must the latest version of either IE, Mozilla Firefox"
And I can't go to my inbox because that message basically won't let me go further. I believe it to be probably an user-agent problem as well?
Now to my second question:
I've a Windows XP with 200 GB hard-drive, so since it is a 32-bit it reads it as 176 GB
However i've recently noticed that half-the hardrive is full when i'm not even using that much. It shows it to be 70 GB free, so after some investigation i've found that the files in my System Volume Information folder take up 70 GB +
I went on microsoft.com and searched for how to find and access the System Volume Information folder (c:\System Volume Information) since it is a hidden system file, so after following tips from (http://www.tweakxp.com/article36959.aspx and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309531) I found the system_restore folder, so i proceeded to turn off System Restore for my hard-drive and then rebooted in safe-mode to delete that file. When i was deleting it stopped because it said that "change.log" is still in use and cannot be deleted because it is access-denied.
Can someone help me find change.log and/or change the permissions on that file and if possible delete that file so i can get back my space?
