RAR command line with real world example

Every week I make an ASR backup of my Windows 2003 R2 servers, some of them are physically located at another site. Due to that fact I had to think of a secure way to get my data over the WAN to my office. Just plain copying is not an option because we all know if one bit falls over my complete ASR backup is rubbish. And I would have wasted precious bandwidth.

How to Uninstall WSUS 3.0 after you have (removed/fucked up) the database manually

Well if somehow your wsus 3.0 database becomes corrupt. Due to an Database administrator removing the instance for example. I tried to remove through the Add/Remove programs dialog but all I got back was.
