  1. Updated new download. Has IPB and PHPBB server side scripts, and it works correctly with no or multiple forum subscriptions.
  2. I've finished the server-side script that supports IPB subscriptions.
  3. Updated topic. Latest version, includes info on subscribing to a PHPBB Forum
  4. Active Desktop Portal Beta *New* This is based on tehDesk by BetaGuyGZT. It will soon be a complete PHP desktop portal, giving you everything from news to weather to forum updates. The final version will come with several templates. Features Smarty Templating System Compact, low-footprint server and database Links to common folders and programs Firefox style Search Box (needs work, but exists in concept) Control WinAMP and Windows Media Player from your desktop Forum plugins (latest topics, number of topics since last visit, new messages) - phpBB, IPB, vBB Coming Soon Weather & Weather Alerts Local Theater Listings Local Gas Prices RSS Feeds (including news and blogs) Yahoo, Hotmail, GMail, and AOL integration Remote Blog Posting Calendar Address Book Notes ToDo/Homework Bookmarks/Links All-in-one desktop, explorer, and web view themes Control EMule, Azureus, and WinAMP from your desktop Display Coolmon stats on your desktop Shopping List Problems Big security risk including many files on separate servers Need to do a check for including subscriptions - do not include if number of MySQL rows that are enabled is equal to zero This is designed primarily on Windows XP, but will be optimised before final release to run on Windows NT/95 and up with IE 4 and up. It uses Windows built-in Active Desktop technology to give you a dynamic portal. Might not work on Windows XP x64. Alright, since I just got this mostly bug free, I decided to post it. I went through and converted all HTML files to templates, fixed some errors in pages (</body> before <body>, <body> after page content, text size, etc.), organized the pages, changed all the links (to work from a server instead of the local computer), and some other misc tweaks. I also, of course, had to set up the server and MySQL on ports and addresses people likely won't use (127.5.1.32:50386 for the main files, port 50387 for MySQL, and 127.0.0.1:50388 for the web server interface), and get the registry tweaks figured out. Install If you are upgrading, first run \windows\web\server\Stop.cmd. Download the file, extract to your \Windows\Web directory, execute Active Desktop Portal.reg (but NOT the other registry patch, that will likely screw up your PC), run Url-run-Setup.exe in server\htdocs\KickerFiles, and run Start.cmd in the Server directory. MySQL and the web server have been set up to start silently with your PC (and named to be easily recognizable in Task Manager). The page appears as an active desktop object filling the entire desktop, hides your icons, and locks web content on your desktop. The patch will also add tweaks to help enable Web View in folders (hopefully a future feature), and disables the IE click noise. To install the ADP script for your forum, upload the adp folder in the server\forum mods\ folder to your phpBB or IPB directory (i.e. mysite.com/phpbb2/adp/adp.php should exist). Open subscribe.php to subscribe to your forum. Feel free to look the code over. Download (Nov. 4, 2005) Links Home Page phpBB subscription mod IPB subscription mod
  5. I've been trying to get this **** thing to work (period) and I've only been able to do it by applying this patch: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer] "AllowLegacyWebView"=dword:00000001 "AllowUnhashedWebView"=dword:00000001 "RevertWebViewSecurity"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer] "UseSystemForSystemFolders"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects\WebView] "DefaultValue"=dword:00000001 "DefaultApplied"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "WebView"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer] "AllowLegacyWebView"=dword:00000001 "AllowUnhashedWebView"=dword:00000001 "RevertWebViewSecurity"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer] "UseSystemForSystemFolders"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects\WebView] "DefaultValue"=dword:00000001 "DefaultApplied"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "WebView"=dword:00000001 and setting the folder I want to have WebView to be a system folder, then adding a desktop.ini to the folder: [ExtShellFolderViews] Default={5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262} {5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262}={5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262} [{5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262}] PersistMoniker=file://folder.htt and placing folder.htt inside the directory. It's a pain in the @ss. Maybe the shellstyle.dll or shell32.dll from the original XP (non SP1) might hold the answer.
  6. The usernames that you choose on first-run.
  7. Would it be possible to change OOBE (or make a new one) to not only add the users right after install, but choose their pictures and security levels?
  8. Have you heard of Wengier's MSDOS 7.1 (used to be at newdos.yginfo.net)? Check http://www.computing.net/dos/wwwboard/forum/15867.html there is a boootable DOS 7.1 CD available.
  9. Apache 2.0.54 + PHP 5.0.4 + MySQL 4.1.12a + eAccelerator + mod_bandwidth. Made by myself with props to James Greenwood. 4.5MB archive, 11.6MB unrared, 30MB after MySQL's first run. Has various PHP and Apache tweaks. http://rapidshare.de/files/3068061/Mini_Apache_2.rar.html Here is a my.ini with all variables inside and some tweaked for better performance for high-load sites http://rapidshare.de/files/3068354/my.ini.html _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ ( M | I | N | I ) ( A | P | A | C | H | E ) \_/ \_/ \_/ \_/ \_/ \_/ \_/ \_/ \_/ \_/ Version: 2.0.5.4 Description -=-=-=-=-=- A minimalist version of Apache, which is officially the most popular web server software in the world. Also included in this version is the PHP scripting engine version 5.0.4 and the MySQL Database engine version 4.1.12a. Additional features for Apache include eAccelerator (a handy program for caching files used by PHP) and mod_bandwidth, which allows you to control the server bandwidth by site, user, file, or file size. Instructions -=-=-=-=-=-= 1. Extract all of the files in this RAR to the root of drive C: on your system. You could use a different folder, but that would mean extra editing of the httpd.conf file afterwards. 2. Goto where you extracted the files to, browse into the /conf directory and open the httpd.conf file with your favourite text editor. Read the comments there and customize it to your needs. 3. Go back to the main directory (c:\web) and run the "Install Service.cmd" batch file. 4. Open your favourite Web browser and point it to: http://127.0.0.1/ You should see a screen showing the output of phpinfo()! Notes -=-=- Directories are scattered throughout httpd.conf, but they are all at the top of php.ini. Once installed as a service, you must start and stop Mini_MySQL4 (start->run->services.msc). It will hang, you must press ctrl+alt+del and shut it down manually. This is because it creates 20MB worth of extra files. This is not a problem on subsequent runs.

  10. Alright, I use MSN7 build 813. I go to send my friend a nudge, he doesn't have latest version though. Suddenly I get a "Downloading MSN Messenger Content" notice and my MSN suddenly turns to... Anyone think this is too far, downloading stuff without my permission?

  13. Would there be a way to search for \i386\winnt.exe on all drives (until it's found) and use that drive as the CD drive?
  14. **** this is tricky!!! I can't get the link right, and now it's down. I'll work on it
  15. It might be because if my drive that it is that big. But I updated the link, try now.
  16. DOWNLOAD FROM MICROSOFT (Use file manager like Flashget) Removed Rename it to whatever you want (official is WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe) 266 while downloading, 272 on local PC.
  17. I believe you are trying to close iexplorer.exe when it is iexplore.exe
  18. Haven't looked at this thread in a while, but there is a tool on the Windows 98 CD that automates installations like the XP OPK.
  19. I have been gathering up information on making a custom Windows 9X disc, and have not found that much. It seems that no websites on the internet are dedicated to this. I know it is not supported in WinME. Couldn't help but notice that the unattended site here is only for XP. Is there any interest in creating an unattended site for Windows 9X?
  20. http://www.techconnect.ws/modules.php?name...rticle&sid=5690 Apparently Hotmail is going to offer Terabyte storage.
  21. The details were deleted because I must have hit tab or something and one of the windows shortcut keys for IE6 took me back a page, and deleted everything I wrote. Did not want to have to rewrite. Hey TonicX, DID YOU NOT JUST SEE MY POST WITH THAT ADDRESS?
  22. http://www.1and1.com Will not post details because I just did and they were deleted, so just go there. You will be pleasently surprised. You will need a phone number and e-mail for each account.
