First, note that these all look like abbreviations, not acronyms.

Second, each of them could possibly stand for several different
things. Unless you tell us where and in what context you read them,
it's hard to answer the question. As a single example of that, Google
tells me that, among other things, TDI stands for "Therapy Dogs
International," and my guess is that that's not the answer you're
looking for.

I agree, but what if we made the crazy assumption that the OP wanted info
relating in some way to microsoft.public.windowsxp.general?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki is a good place to start looking, but has no
info for RWW and it is available in many languages.

AD Active Directory, a Microsoft administration program
SBS Microsoft Small Business Server, now Windows Small Business Server, an
integrated server suite from Microsoft designed for running network
infrastructure of small and medium enterprises
RBS Possibly Ready Business System?
TDI Transport Dispatch Interface, used by NT series Windows to abstract
level 7 APIs into a common protocol for the Transport Protocol layer.

I find, in Google search 'Define: xxx...' is pretty well the quickest way
of finding out what anything means.
