How to delete protected vista files from XP

by booting to windows XP I was trying to free disk space from expired Vista installation and getting errors of access is denied on trying to delete the vista files

The solution is simple,

1) just go to My Computer>Tools > Folder Options > View and uncheck the last option of use simple file sharing

2) Reboot to safe mode and right click on the folder/file you want to delete and go the sharing and security > Security > Advanced and make yourself the owner of all directory and give full permissions and you are all set for deletion of the folder/file

EDIT: I just checked again and booting to safe mode is not necessary , these steps can also be taken while running XP in normal mode

Packet data not available when call is active Nokia

Far last many days I faced the error of packet data not available when call is active when trying to connect to the internet from my S60 Nokia phone, After a lot of troubleshooting and upgrading my firmware to the latest version the problem still persisted and as I had also given a few nasty droops to the mobile recently so I was thinking that most likely it is some glitch with the handset causing the problem but I failed to reach to any solution so I canted my operator with their intervention the problem is thankfully resolved :) the problem was with the settings defined at the operator side.
