Re: Automatically search for network folders and printers

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Nothings changed. Same printers & the same drivers. All was working about a

checked.

Server - Windows Small Business Server 2003
Client Machines - Windows XP Pro SP3

I have also posted in the Symantec forum assumming its a Virus or Firewall
