I want to create an app which sends some data on boot to a server. Should I write a service or wait till that user logs in, creating a registry key at Run. I think that windows connects to the internet after log in, but I am not sure.

Network Awareness in Windows XP
Network Awareness in Windows Vista and Windows 7
I believe the Vista/7 implementation is just using a request to a web site setup by Microsoft to determine if the web site is reachable.

That is not possible. Delphi applications cannot run without an operating system.

I have a Windows Server 2003 Small Business System here. The problem: there are about 200.000 handles which are consuming almost all the memory of the machine and I don't know how to determine which of the services is using all that memory and why.
I was wondering if there is a possibility to get to that information. Maybe via batch-script?
On the server runs:
SQL-Server
Windows Exchange
Trend Micro
Acronis
Any help would be great. Let me know if you need further information.
UPDATE:
I recognized that the problem is the SMTP server that gets a sh*tload of mail.
It seems that someone/something uses my relay to send spam mails. Does anyone know how I can prevent thit?
You could try two utilities from sysinternals suite (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb842062) - either cmd line handle or more versatile Process Explorer.
Note: You'd have to open/display lower pane on PE to view handles.

I want to implement desktop sharing client with Lync as the server. Does Lync use RDP and if so can someone point me to an RDP implementation?
Can I tweak free RDP and make it work? Appreciate your inputs.
If you do not have a Lync client on your other side, you will have a hard time getting application sharing to work. Using an RDP client will not work, since RDP is just a connection to a machine rather than a SIP call. The underlying protocol for the app sharing stream might be the same (I dont know about this), but you'll be missing the parts that deal with the whole Lync connection.
Michael Greenlee has written a bit on the subject of Application Sharing (which is used to share desktops) here: Handling application sharing calls in UCMA, and an MSDN thread on the subject is here: How to handle Application Sharing Invitation, maybe this helps you?

i am running xampp on my windows 7 machine. i've downloaded the sourcecode for concrete5 5.4.2.2 (that is a PHP-based CMS) but some directories are not writeable, see screenie:
since there is no such thing as chmod on windows i am now wondering how to make the folders writeable by the webserver?!
There are two steps that should help you. First, check what user the web server is running as. If you can't see it easily, just Task Manager - it should show you. Then, once you know that user, give him read/write permissions through windows explorer to that folder. Alternatively, you could give "eveyone" access this way, but that has some serious security implications.

Open Source Parental Control for Windows [closed]

anyone knows any "real" parental control software for windows which is "open source"?
tnx
I've just found one:
Kid Logger
Real "parental control" on Windows is Windows itself.
add all allowed domains and their IP's (twice each, with and without 'www') in file /windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
in properties of network connection go to properties of TCP/IP, choose 'use the following DNS addresses' and add 127.0.0.1
Now your system knows IP's of domains listed in hosts, and cannot query DNS for others, so no connection.
While not "open source," Microsoft's Windows Live Family Safety is nice. It's free and works great with Vista/Win7.
