I am always looking for good books on topics, so here are a few references:
“Adobe Lightroom – The Missing FAQ” from Victoria Bampton
As I find more, I will post them.

If you are an Systems Administrator that is responsible for Patching and Updating Servers and Workstations, it is HIGHLY recommend that you subscribe to the FREE PatchManagement.org’s listsrv!
PatchManagement.org is hosted by Shavlik Technologies, and is updated continuously!
Since the “group” is geared toward Sys Admins, the conversation are very topical and technical and one can learn a great deal!
Again, HIGHLY recommended!

Recently, I have been running into some applications errors that can be traced back to corrupt .Net (dotNet) file(s).
In some cases, using the “normal” Add/Removed (appwiz.cpl) will work, but in some EXTREME cases, you might need a little more.
Aaron Stebner has an application for you!
.NET Framework Cleanup Tool User’s Guide
As Aaron mentions in his blog and guide, this tools will get rid of EVERYTHING, so before you use it, make sure you have installers available to you for the versions that you are deleting!

Does the following sound like something you have had happen to you?
“I select the Office button > Prepare > Properties, I get the message “the document information panel was unable to load”.”
It seems that several folks have been running into this issue with both 2007 MS Excel and Word, and there is not a very good explanation of why it occurs, but a potential simple resolution for me was the following:
- Close your MS Excel/Word application;
- Copy the “IPEDINTL.DLL” from
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Web Designer Tools\Office\121033
> to <
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\121033
> to <
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\121033
- Re-launch the application, and try again.
Thanks to the folks at: PC Review (UK), and Ben at Freewarecritic on Blogspot.com for the answer!

Recently, August 6th, 2009, I Upgraded this site from DotNetNuke (DNN) 5.0.1 to 5.1.1, and for the most part, it went well, but there was one nagging issue that was driving me NUTS!
After the Upgrade, the Mode Bar was showing up for ALL Users, including Visitors!
The Mode Bar is only suppose to show up for folks with Administrator rights, so they can perform needed tasks, and with the ‘it’ showing, I thought that Visitors might be alarmed that something was wrong (which it was…).
Needless to say, I spent a great deal of time trying to track down and correct this issue, and posted to several different forums looking for help:
DotNetNuke.com – Help with mode bar issue
Snapsis.com – Hide Mode: View / Edit Control bar unless user has edit permission to tab
What was really weird was that all of my reads seemed to indicate that this was a DNN 4.x issue!
After about two weeks of trying everything that folks had suggested, I finally “Nuked” the whole website (8/19) and started from a Fresh, Clean install of DNN 5.1.
So that bring me to this post.
I am currently rebuilding the whole Site and Forums area from scratch, and have also done a little house-keeping and redesign.
Unfortunately, even though I backed up all the Forum posts, there is no way that I can recreate the original Posting dates and times.
The content has been preserved, but not the timestamps.
Sorry!
So for the next couple of days, I will be re-posting all the Original content (Oh joy, rapture and bliss!), so please bear with us as the information is being replaced.
I hope to have it all done in the next day or two…
In the mean time, all the Forums are up and running, so feel free to post!
Thanks again for stopping by!
– Andrew
