6/22    Anyone know what kinds of Internet options are available for
        residents of Santa Clara?  DSL? Cable modem?  Prices?  Advantages?
        Whom should I contact for info?  I'm out of the loop, I've been
        away... (BTW, cable modems are available in Paris).  Thnx, cathyg
        \_ I found the sales people at tci/athome are stupid beyond belief.  A
           week later they still can't tell me I can get hooked up even though
           they have my neighbor's address (8 feet away on the same cable line)
           as cable mode-ready.  My favorite part was "No, we can't give you
           as cable modem-ready.  My favorite part was "No, we can't give you
           the customer service number because you're not a customer!" when I've
           been fighting with them to *become* a customer.  It's a bad sign for
           the way the rest of the company runs but since they won't *let* me
           become a customer, I can't say for certain that that's true. ;-)
           I still can't get over the s00per sekret cust0mer ser\/ice number.
           \_ Perhaps a sign that you should take your business elsewhere
              rather than keep pounding your head against the wall?
                \_ DSL unavailable.  Satellite unavailable.  Alternative
                   cable modem unavailable.  I'd love to get high speed access
                   from home without this bullshit.  I'm totally open to any
                   reasonable and most unreasonable suggestions.  Work is
                   paying for this so price is flexible but must be
           I still can't get over the s00per sekret cust0mer ser\/ice number.
                   justifiable.

6/21    Can anyone give a pointer to a utility that will recover passwords
        from a MS Access .mdw workgroup file?
        \_ http://www.lostpassword.com -shac
        \_ Can anyone give a pointer to a utility that cracks passwords
           on Access files?  How about Unix /etc/passwd files?  MS
           installer codes?
                \_ MS Install product keys: Try using all 1's.  Works every
                   time I've tried it!  Office, DevStudio, SourceSafe, etc.
                        \_ Some take all 0's instead/as well.
                        \_ I think only the CS department copies can do that.
                           Normal Office/DevStudio CDs don't allow that.
                           \_ UC doesn't get special copies of anything.  I've
                              seen the boxes, installed the software, etc.  It's
                              generic.  At least for Office and the OS.  Didn't
                              install DS but the CD's looked the same.
                        \_ All "4" works on some stuff too.
        \_ fdisk.
