Maintain consistent folder views

This tip will show you how to fix this problem by changing a simple registry setting.
ASK PAUL HINSBERG
When are multiple domains better than one?
Dear Paul:
When, if ever, should one consider multiple domains for the enterprise? Currently, we have all users in a single domain. Our European sites are requesting a domain for each country. Our primary application program is from J.D. Edwards and we are using Lotus Notes. With Win2000, I don't see much advantage, if any, to going to multiple domains. Can you please comment?

![]()
Here's another example of research that doesn't exactly make you sit back and give your chin a ruminative rub. It could very well conjure the word "duh" from dormancy. Researchers in the U.K. found that most workers with instant messaging (IM) on their work computers ping for pleasure, not business. Here it comes -- DUH! Dissing the boss, talking smack about co-workers and flirting are the predominate themes in workplace IMs. Workers in the U.S., on the other hand, are a little more conservative -- because more of them know their IMs can be traced.
