I would snap shot the other server and use it to reimage this one.
Applications like that can kill your servers. BUT this does give you
some interesting things to do:
You should do a write up for the business units and you mgr as to what
is going. Your Mgr's copy should include that some one with admin rights
to a box they know nothing about installed an app.
This will either a: get the guy fired: or b: keep him away from your
server.
Then next thing to do is use this as a beginning to create a new and
strict Change control policy and remove all admins rights from everyone
but yourself and one other TRUSTED person to that box....

1 - shoot the guy who did this to you
2 - if he's still moving after you shoot him have him reinstall the
server
from scratch

One of the guys who has admin rights on our server but knows nothing
about
Citrix (obviously), was trying to work from home over the holidays and
decided to install Visual Studio 6 on our Citrix server. =20
=20
Several problems arose quickly and we solved most of them, but there are
still some 'haning around'
=20
My config is W2K (sp3) w/MF1.8 SP3
=20
Problems arose with hyperlinks not working from Office apps etc. After
removing VS6, we reinstalled W2k Sp3 and got the links working.
=20
Now, I have two remaining issues.=20
=20
1. Our intranet home page was designed in FrontPage and uses the
FPHover
class for some graphical buttons. Those buttons appear as broken image
links and are not hyperlinked. I'm thinking that this is a problem with
the
Java VM, but there doesn't seem to be a way to reload the VM except thru
Windows Update which doesn't see a problem.
=20
2. There also appears to be a problem with MDAC/Jet objects. I've
installed the MDAC 2.7 and Jet 4.0, but still have problems. Today, I
tried
to install an app that needs MDAC 2.6. On my other Citrix box
(essentially
a clone), it installed without issue and flew by the MDAC install (I'm
assuming it detected that it already have MDAC 2.6 or higher), but on
this
box, it tried to install MDAC 2.6 and failed.
=20
Any ideas? I know this is all kind of vague. I'm not sure the two
issues
are totally unrelated, so any help on either one of them may solve both
of
them.

Thanks,
