Roaming profile errors
Dear Jerry:
My Win2000 Pro computers are part of a domain, and users use roaming profiles. I recently received this error message: "Windows can't log you on because the profile can't be loaded. There is not enough space on the disk." I deleted the user's profile in Control Panel and asked him log back in: no error message popped up. However, a few days later, the problem happened again on the same computer under his account.

Former cop, Cougar reunited
![]()
Thanks to the Internet, a Florida man will get his car back -- 20 years after someone stole it from outside his Bronx home. The man, a former NYPD detective, had given up the ghost -- or in this case, the 1968 Mercury Cougar -- years ago. But thanks to an Internet community of Cougar collectors, one of whom was doing some research on a Cougar he saw for sale in a New York newspaper, man and machine will be reunited. Another man
will be united with charges of possession of stolen property.
