An attempt was made to query the existence of a blank password for an account.
There seems to be an aweful lot of questions regarding this issue and a
google search has forum topics of this message but no definitive answers. This morning while connected to the internet my machine kept beeping me every few seconds. At first I thought it was a bad connection with a USB device connecting and disconnecting but a review of the event log showed multiple instances of this message. Anyone know (DIFINITIVELY) what the hell this is all about? Giovanni |
