Windows XP Pro: The Missing Manual - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Windows XP is the latest version of this widely used operating system. However, it comes without a single page of printed instruction, and this is the "Missing Manual", covering every feature. This written guide aims to fill the gap. It uses wit, technical insight, and scrupulous objectivity to light the way for first-time and intermediate PC fans. The book reveals which features work well and which don't, such as the Remote Desktop software that enables people to connect to the office from home, the encryption file system that protects sensitive information, and the Windows Messenger that enables real-time text, voice and video communication. Contents include: getting started; using menus, finding lost files, reducing window clutter, and taming the new, multi-column Start menu; mastering the network; special chapters help you navigate the corporate network, dial in from the road, and even set up your own small-office (peer-to-peer) network, step by step; understanding security; user accounts, file encryption, and the NTFS file system; keep your private files private; and flying the Net. This book aims to demystify Outlook Express 6 for email, Internet Explorer 6 for Web browsing, and the new Windows Messenger for voice, chat, and video conferencing.
