How to accept user input in a batch file and have the file act upon that input?
Q. I've made a small batch file that deletes cookies. It works, but I'd like to make it where it asks the user if they're sure they want to delete the files ie "This program will delete all cookies. Are you sure you want to proceed Y / N" IF Y then delete the files IF N cookies won't be deleted and the program will display a message and close. I need to know how to make the program accept Y as input and then run the rest of the program to delete the files.

How Can I identify a user that has previously been on my site?
Q. I run an online forum. Now I want to find out, if there are users having duplicate accounts, i.e. one and the same person with two accounts. I can think of the IP Address - but that probably changes with every dial in of the user, and cookies - which the user can easily delete before logging in with the other account. What further possibilities do I have? Can I get the MAC address of the users computer - if so, is that even legal?

How can I set up my User Limited accounts so they work properly? Can their histories be recovered?
Q. On advice from Microsoft, I set up limited user accounts for those who use my computer, including myself. Now, I find that none of us can do anything, except for the Administrator. Can't access the browsers, get into email - nothing. Can you help? this is on XP Media Center

A. If you use the default limited user account settings it will do that. The only way to configure things you want the users to do and things you don't is by configuring it in group policy (local users and groups in vista).
