This post is a quick gathering of a few small scripts I wrote with my IT-life's motto: "Never do anything twice"
I had a discussion last week with a colleague about archiving messages in outlook. I have a 7GB mailbox on the server because I never delete mail.

A basic Windows XP machine can do a lot of things. Apart from facilitating an environment for a user's applications, it can do things like self maintenance, updates, hardware changes, etc. This is nice in a physical environment with lots of different pieces of hardware but in a virtual instance things hardly change, the environment is pretty much set and all tricks to speed things up usually have an adverse effect on the infrastructure. All these virtual instances need to share the often rather limited amount of resources.
