  1. Hey nuhi, as I told you already, I just don't have the time available to test or else I'd be well more than willing. Good luck with it and all. Been away for a while as you already know and I will probably get the internet where I'm staying at temporarily until I come back home.

    Have fun though.

  2. Lutinsjj, I'm not sure that's the most appropriate image to be attaching to the forums :P

    Gigabitfx - Wmp10 has been out for a bit over a week. It's a pretty nice media player I think. It sure does handle video files MUCH better in terms of playing them and advancing back and forth through the video.

  3. Corporate edition works this way - install it, it's activated. You don't have to do it online and because it doesn't require true activation.

    Corporate liscenses work in large volume liscensing. It's for businesses of course to distribute to many computers. Generally you have to buy a lot of liscenses for the Corporate version though.

  4. Are you running a legit version of Windows? Not saying anything against you but I see a lot of users that have problems mention they are using Xp Pro Corporate Edition. Home users have no use for the Corporate Edition and I believe that it takes large volume liscensing agreements to legally obtain a copy.

  5. After testing it myself, it works just fine. Download the zipped dll file and then move it to c:\windows\system32 (good safe spot for ya to keep it). Then register it with this command:

    regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\DirSize.dll

    :)

    Then you just need to right click on the tabs bar and enable the folder size view.

  6. Well, for about a year or so I've been wondering about \windows\installer directory and whether or not it's needed. Unfortunately, it's not possible to search for c:\windows\installer on the internet as search engines all fail when using even c:\ :P

    So... I'm wondering if I can remove these files. From what I can tell, all they are are the .msi files related to programs you've installed manually onto your computer but are not required in any way for use of that program. But this installer directory uses over 230 mb on my pc so I was just wondering if anyone else has ever tried removing these files and how things went afterwards.

    Thanks.

  7. Themexp.org has been known for including spyware/adware in their .exe packaged files. They also are hooked up with Claria advertising (most will know them as GATOR/GAIN). Either way, I don't even go there anymore and will never.

    Fortunately Firefox blocks every ad they have and there is no such thing as ActiveX so I don't hvae to worry about it. To me, that's beside the point as I'm not interested in places like that.

  8. Messenger2 is another one. I've used GAIM quite often. Unfortunately it still lacks a few things that I prefer so I still just use each individual messenger. Overall, Messenger2 shows the best promise if their development speed keeps up. GAIM shows good progress but I don't think they have the intentions for hte program that I'd like to see better implimented.

  9. The last version I used was VoptMe. But, have you used O&O?

    Yes, Mazin, I have used O&O. Every defragmentation tool I've used in the past just does that - defragments. VoptXp strategically places files for optimal performance. It places the most often accessed files at the beginning of the drive. Larger files serve precedence over smaller files as well and come before smaller files generally though not always.

  10. Yah, the tiff files are a bit difficult to read at times and can create a small time lapse. In that time lapse, Fax and Picture viewer can hang thinking that the file is corrupt/unreadable in some way. The best thing to do is convert them or at least put them on your hard drive first. Then you'll be able to view them much quicker and Fax and Picture viewer will stop hanging (or at least should).
