Worth1000 has got some hilarious stuff... I entered once but was nowhere near what everyone else can do...

My utility posted in this thread allows you to drag and drop multiple files to makecab.

C# is king.

You don't read binary. And for those of you that don't, here's a binary converter.

Of course C# relies on the framework, that's the future of windows programming. The only reason not to learn a framework language such as C# is if you intend to do programming on a different platform such as Linux where C++ is a must.

Regarding compression, I expanded and re-compressed the entire I386 for testing and I found out that EVERY single file is compressed using LZX(21). So I suppose compressing to anything else would be a moot point.

Haha. I suck. This is my system.

Bug should be fixed now. New build posted.

Nope, maybe just a bad route to host from your location.

I can't seem to reproduce the bug. I think it could be because modifype.exe is not in your path?

Thanks. Check out my utility to save yourself the trouble as well in this thread.

If anyone finds any bugs and such, please let me know. Now, to think of another util to make.

ALL UTILITIES HAVE BEEN MOVED TO THIS FORUM THANK YOU MSFN.

The only DLL I've seen out is a 2055 build. Is there a 2180 build of termsvr.dll that has been patched and released?

Okay, so we know that termsvr.dll from Windows XP build 2055 allows concurrent connections with the help of a registry tweak. But what we really want is a final 2180 build hack for termsvr.dll. Does anyone know HOW to hack termsvr.dll to allow this? If not, wouldn't install Windows Server 2003 then installing Service Pack 2 yield a termsvr.dll that would allow concurrent connections that we could copy into Windows XP?

Anyone figure it out yet?

Sometimes I wonder if all of us put together know more about Microsoft's products the Microsoft does.

There's very little documentation on makecab and even less on lzx with makecab, so I had to dig a LOT to find this. But I'd say it was worth it.

@jrzycrim: Thanks. After taking the lead on what jrzycrim said, I found the optimal solution using makecab which I put into a batch file. smallcab.bat @echo off makecab /D CompressionType=LZX /D CompressionMemory=21 %1 %2

If you expand a windows file then re-compress it using makecab, the compression ratio is half of what it was before. Anyone know of a way to increase the compression ratio of makecab? Or another utility that has better compression but still makes a valid windows compressed file?

If you fill in the white of that picture of the PC with RGB(255,0,255) it will look much nicer as the background will be transparent.

Here are some good tutorials to get you started on C# if you're really interested... http://www.softsteel.co.uk/tutorials/cSharp/cIndex.html http://www.csharp-station.com/Tutorial.aspx http://www.csharphelp.com/archives2/archive402.html http://csharpcomputing.com/Tutorials/TOC.htm http://www.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/Teaching/Lec...Sharp/Tutorial/

So what are you doing here? LOL.

What are you thinking? Of course it's Pepsi.
