I've disabled the autoupdate feature because there's an XP patch which (in
combination with XP SP1) slows some application startup times to a crawl.
Not sure if this is still a problem or if XP also autodownloads a fix for
this issue.
Cheers,
Mike Hately

Agreed -
It's like the case where I had a wonderful (pure SQL)
workaround to a deficiency in partitioned tables in 8.0.5;
and Oracle decided it was a bug, and fixed it in 8.0.6.
How do explain that the database is now running 120
times more slowly because it's working properly ?

Yes,
40 MB so far. But it is quite subtle about it,
and it only happens in my 'think time' whilst
I'm online.
Be prepared - the OEM 4.0 demo at IOUG
said that OEM would call Oracle for you with
an ORA-00600 trace, get the analysis done,
download the (probable) patch, and install it
for you auto
Did your wonderful XP box download patches from MS Support for you without
telling?

I find almost as bad the situation where you DO find the problem and it
turns out that it should never have worked in the first place.

Not sure, but when you patch XP, keep an eye out for this in 2004 -- I heard
a rumour that the next Service Pack for XP may turn the XP firewall back on.

Hi Jonathan,

Hi Jonathan,
I bought a new PC sometime back similar to you, xp norton firewall and
virus and i had a problem with norton to start with. I found the
solution was the built in windows firewall was also turned on. You can
check this in the start->control panel->network connections->right click
on is
Make sure you also allow destination port 53 UDP/TCP for DNS requests. Even if you can
talk HTTP[S] on ports 80 and 443, you won't get very far if you can't lookup an IP
address for a domain name.

Is this a multiple choice question? My money is on the firewall. You can
test this by trying to go to well known web sites like microsoft.com and
dell.com. Who is the firewall's vendor? You need to enable the feature
that allows full access to sites. Go to grc.com to check the firewall to
deter
Yep, could be the firewall, if the site gives "not found" error.
Another thing that you might hit is that Metalink requires cookies to be
enabled, maybe in XP's internet explorer they're disabled by default.

I couldn't resist: it must be Windows XP.

I'd say IE and firewall too ... I use Mozilla Firebird ... it is set to open
different tabs instead of windows ... Maybe you want to tweak XP built in firewall and
open ports 80 (http),443 (https).
