to run anytime someone logs in. If you only want it
to run when the computer is rebooted, you could
reference your batch file in AUTOEXEC.BAT or
WINSTART.BAT. If you only want it to run when Windows
starts, you might add it to the "run=" line in WIN.INI
or put a shortcut to your batch file in the Startup
folder for every user. But if you want it to run for
every user (including new ones) at every login, you're
stuck going into the registry. Press the "Start"
button, select "Run...", type in regedit.exe, and
navigate your way to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Select "Edit" / "New" / "String Value". Name it
whatever you want, and add the name of your batch
file for the value data.
Now then... Here is the batch file I use for similar
things. I call it BOOTLOG.BAT
----------------------------------------------------
call current.bat
echo Login occured at %date% %time% >> c:\bootlog.log
----------------------------------------------------
The call to CURRENT.BAT is used to set the time and
date into the environment. Here is what I use for CURRENT.BAT:
----------------------------------------------------
:: This batch file MUST be named CURRENT.BAT
:: DATE is %4, TIME is %3
:: Current date is Thu 01-22-1998
:: Current time is 8:52:28.07a
if "%3"=="" goto GETDATE
if "%4"=="" goto SETTIME
goto SETDATE
:SETTIME
set TIME=%3
goto DONE
:SETDATE
set DATE=%4
goto DONE
:GETDATE
echo.|date>temp.bat
call temp.bat
echo.|time>temp.bat
call temp.bat
if exist temp.bat del temp.bat
goto DONE
:DONE
----------------------------------------------------
Someone asked me about combining my batch
files that identify the user with this batch
file. Seemed like a natural! Then I started
thinking that all of these batch files create
environment variables. And some machines just
aren't set up to allow any more variables. So
here's code that will log the date and time,
will also get the user name three separate
ways, and does it all with no variables:
----------------------------------------------------
@echo off
echo ****************************** >> C:\login.log
echo. | date | find "Current" >> C:\login.log
echo. | time | find "Current" >> C:\login.log
net config | find "User" >> C:\login.log
start /w regedit /e C:\temp.txt HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\control
type C:\temp.txt | find "Current User" >> d:\login\login.log
start /w regedit /e C:\temp.txt HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Logon
type C:\temp.txt | find "username" >> C:\login.log
del C:\temp.txt
echo ****************************** >> C:\login.log
cls
----------------------------------------------------
If you want your batch file to run "invisibly",
well, you have a small problem. Batch files can't
run invisibly by themselves. You have to have
some other program run start the batch file
invisibly. And you have to make sure the program
that starts the batch file is invisible itself!
sounds like a "Catch-22", but there IS a solution!
Windows scripting scripts (VBS files) run
invisibly when they are run by the "wscript.exe"
program (which is the default way to run them in
Windows). So instead of having your registry
entry point to your batch file, have it point to
a script. Have the script run the batch file.
Here's a simple one-line VBS script (give it any
name with a VBS file extension) that will run
your batch file invisibly. All you have to do is
replace the name of the batch file I show with
your batch file name:
----------------------------------------------------
CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run "C:\login.bat", 0, False
----------------------------------------------------
Miles Fenton in the UK pointed out that while
"net config" works under Win9x, you'll need to
use "net config server" or
"net config workstation" when running under NT.

There are three ways to check the authenticity of a site using certificates:
1. CRL
2. OCSP
3. Validation period
OCSP is online certificate status protocol. FireFox checks the certificate list against an online list server.
Sometimes the server, FireFox is trying to connect to, to verify the certificate was busy, down or blocked which is why it wouldn't work.
You can work around the problem temporarily by disabling CSP in your validation preferences:
1. Preferences > Advanced > Validation > click "Do Not Use OCSP..."
2. i) Tools > Options > Advanced > Encryption > Validation
ii) Uncheck "Validate a certificate if it specifies an OCSP server"
iii) Ok all the dialog boxes.
If the issue still persists, please start FireFox in Safe Mode and disable add-ons. You can find detailed information from this weblink:
