XAMPP joomla error: Strict Standards: Accessing static property JCache::$_handler as non static

 i was getting the below error message in firefox after installing the Joomla 1.7.6 version with XAMPP

Strict Standards: Accessing static property JCache::$_handler as non static in E:\xampp\htdocs\joomla_176\libraries\joomla\cache\cache.php on line 422

 After googling,  i found the below recommendation to be done to solve this issue

1. First check for php.ini file in your server folder (XAMPP), in that replace display_errors=false
2. Change error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT to error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
3. One more thing select the Server (XAMPP) application and right click-> and check for 'run always as administrator'

After doing the above points, its working fine...
