^^I agree with you.Search is useless most of the time.You can only remember the posts if you are in constant touch of forum.

SOLUTION: Folder Options not available in Tools Menu!

I don't think it will work by this method,there must be some error in the code.

il tell y it didnt wrk ... coz it was alreadyset to 'not configured' ... so it actually made no difference .. im scanning his m/c ... lets c .. ... il keep u guys updated

[Arsenal_Gunners]

weird..try vishal's way,it must work.

[Pathik]

if it ws already not configured then set it to DISABLED....
cos the change wasnt made thru gpedit but by a virus or thru the registry....
so set it to DISABLED...

[iMav]

ya im scanning it now ... im hopeful tht its a virus ... coz nahi toh kuch aur sochne padega .... aap logon ko

[Pathik]

if all this doesnt work.... then wait for vistaji to bring out another new registry hack..... wich ms itself doesnt know abt...
