  1. In your email client choose "View Source" so you can see the headers. Then find the originating IP and paste it here. http://www.ip2location.com/free.asp
  2. albators site has such apps... http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=54074&hl= http://standalone.atspace.org/index.html http://www.portablefreeware.com/
  3. When script is run, %USERPROFILE% variable is replaced by the current user area (usually "documents and Settings") plus the currently logged-on users name. But without modifying the destination you would overwrite each others bookmarks whenever someone else is logged on. If you want to back up multiple users make a line for each one with a different source and destination. You can also use scripting to loop through the users but that is more complicated for beginner.
  4. you need quotes around any path with spaces. sorry, didn't make that clear. @echo off copy /Y "C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\8loakqo3.default\bookmarks.html" "I:\Firefox bookmarks\script test\bookmarks.html"
  5. If you are trying to generate dynamic web pages with VB script you want to be looking at Active Server Pages (ASP). http://www.asptutorial.info/
  6. Really just one command will do it. Something like... @echo off copy /Y C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<zaz3ggmy>.default\bookmarks.html c:\backups\bookmarks.html Save that as "backupfox.cmd" or name of your choosing note that your user profile will have a different random sequence than "zaz3ggmy", but the rest other than user name is default install path. Just edit the destination where you want it to go. Then just schedule it with task scheduler you could also try Fab's autobackup for more complete solution... http://autobackup.parisot-net.com/index-en.htm
  7. By "Portable" he means doesn't have to be installed, can just be copied or unzipped and run or run from USB drive. Also keeps all settings within its own directory structure, not in registry or application data folder.
  8. If you are planning this for your editor please put toggle to turn this behavior off... many people find it extremely annoying. In answer to question, try making main form "IsMdiContainer" true, then when launching child form, set MdiParent to main form. I.E. Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click Form2.MdiParent = Me Form2.Show() End Sub
  9. Can you open task manager to see if it is responding? If you have to restart, setup will usually detect a failed upgrage and pick up where it left off.
  10. tr is a unix command to translate or delete characters from stdin and write to stdout. Often used for patching source code by replacing or deleting sections of text. Certainly not a magic DOS remover. For instance this command would delete all carraige returns (\r).
  11. try... IF EXIST <path\file> GOTO DONE stuff to do if path not exist.... :DONE EDIT- Go Eagles!
  12. Are you implying that you know better than MS how to make money?? When you sign up for accounting, take economics too.
  13. Take an accounting class. Customer goodwill is an asset with monetary value. Not implying, saying flat out. But this is only part of it. MS and MS affiliates want to sell games to all of the people that still use 98. They have huge marketing department, so I am sure whatever they decide to support or not support is thoroughly researched. From all of the yes/no answers here it seems people don't understand it's not about the OS, it's about the $$$.
  14. MS obviously decided that it DID make sense to support directx on 9x. There are many kinds of value. If you have ever taken accounting you know goodwill is considered an asset. Yes, you can create a directx abstraction layer for the mac. it has already been done here... http://www.macworld.com/news/2002/04/17/macdx/index.php Windows games also use Windows GUI components though, so games will never be "cross platform", but the interaction with the hardware will be coded in the same directx API, making them much more easily ported.
  15. The games are actually supported by the directx hardware abstraction layer, not the OS. 9x supports directx, so why wouldn't the games be supported? On the other hand, hardware companies have to put their money where it makes a profit, so the only correct answer to this question of driver support is "Depends'. If there is enough demand they will support it, thats how it works.
  16. Do you have these values set in winnt.sif? [Unattended] OemPreinstall=Yes UnattendSwitch="yes"
  17. You are right of course stalkie. // Get the user's input from the form $name = $_POST['name']; // Register session key with the value $_SESSION['name'] = $name; I was thinking of the built-in session variables, but you are correct, you can register your own in the session.
  18. A session will not store the username, session is just unique id you can assign on login or initial page load, and check on subsequent requests to make sure it is actually logged in user. To have the user name available you can either use cookies, or if you want to support browsers with cookies disabled you can pass the name from request to request in a hidden input form field.
  19. There is a updater on the ubcd4win forum (least there used to be). You can also run avpersonal "avwin.exe" from the plugin directory to update before burning cd. sysclean has a batch "getsysclean.cmd" to download lates defs. also run from plugin dir
  20. K-meleon is not only way smaller than FF, it is quickest browser I ever tried. I made standalone for it by modding a PE plugin. only 5.5 Mb. Be interested to see yours. Secret project huh? sounds intriguing...
  21. No, you need the electronic interface between IDE and USB. It's more than just a cable. You can get one of these less than $20 so cost shouldent be too much of an issue.
  22. Yes, very easy. Just get USB drive enclosure, remove drive from computer and install it in usb box. Plug it in and windows will recognize it as another drive. Couldn't be easier. I use one like this... doesn't have a enclosure box, so it is easy to plug in any IDE drive and use as USB. http://www.pcmicrostore.com/PartDetail.asp...01935&kbid=1091
