  1. dead as a dodo. may have some uses for legacy systems and old data, but otherwise...

    btw, id advise anybody with old pictures and documents on an old floppy to get the files off before the thing succumbs to some magnetic field :P

  2. ok, firstly, i'll admit im nowhere near an expert/professional programmer, but here are my 2c

    basic is an easy language to start with. its powerful up to a point in the right hands (windows defender was written in vb until microsoft converted it to c++). however, for moving to another language it can be pig awful. its syntax and the way it works sometimes is nothing like c++ or some other languages

    i havent had experience with java, but on what courses i've done in college and people i know have been on, the courses either use vb or java (ive had the luck to always be on a vb one, which i already know :P). i know that the syntax of java is more like c++, so this might possibly be a good option to move on. it also is more cross-platform

    c++ is where the real power lies, and if you can learn it without learning other languages good for you

    personally, i learnt QBASIC at the age of 10, moved onto VB by the time i was 13 and now dabble in whatever i feel like. i am 20 now. i have tried to break into c++ a few times, but im too stuck in basic. i can get my head around php no problem, but c++ confuses me (i try something, it throws up an error, and i dont know whats causing it, try various things, no luck, give up). ive got the feeling that it might've been easier if i started in java, but...

    in the end, i see it 2 ways. either go with vb and learn it easier yet have more trouble moving on, or go with java, have it a bit harder to learn, but when you want to move on it will be easier

  3. tried to run it and got this

    The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)

    hmmmm, just found out what it means by the power of google, i thought i had .Net installed :blushing:

    got it installed. havent got time to take a properly check it all out but it looks good :) only thing i can suggest is having an option of saving the tweaks or integrating them, as well as having machine and per user options

  4. you could split the string using space as a delimiter, capitalise the first letter and then concatenate them back together again
    That is even moar inefficient (string splitting and concatenation involves a huge amount of overhead in most HLLs).

    Remember that stringreplace has to make a complete pass over the input string for *every* character you want to replace. Why not uppercase them all at once in one pass?

    i aint a professional coder, i program in vb mainly and the size of the programs i make efficiency isnt really important :P

  5. yeah the good old days of net send, the admin still hasent dissabled it yet...

    any way i found out that each grade have different groups...

    yr 8: s*** all access the anything on the network. or internet

    yr 9 : have little access to the network. or internet

    yr 10: have an extra 50 mbs of storage plus less sites are blocked.

    yr 11: have acees to almost all network files except admin and teacher files.

    yr 12: they have the closest thing to a normal user account

    so if there was anyway to change my account type through the main server, please tell me.

    DISCLAIMER: this is merely an account of what i did. it is not to be used for any malicous purposes, and i will not be held responsible for any conscequences of anybody trying to copy what i did

    aye. that is what i did, except i did it with the admin user group, which was my undoing :'(

    id say you're network is more secure than this (its so simple its stupid). i cant remember exactly, but i went into search, typed in admin and it brought up the usergroup admin on the domain. clicked add user, entererd my user name, and away i went. from there i gave myself different permissons on different things, left messages on peoples accounts

    soon after a creating a basic phising website complete with logo from the school webpage, that said enter you're username and password to access you're files. admin saw this in the logs, and it all went down hill (not until after he entered the admin username and password. lol)

  6. You could always hack the server and give yourself access. All you need to know is the integral system that is Active Directory, and Windows Server. Good luck! :D

    not something i would recommend. i did that and am lucky not to have a criminal record

  7. you should just be able to pull the files off of the hdd without the password (how good is microsoft security eh)

    every time I try to open it I get the attached message. If I make a new account with the same name will it work?

    not entirely sure. i would've thought that administrator would be able to set different permissions tho

    there is the possibility that the file is encrypted tho, in which case, i dont think you'll be able to get it without the password

  8. Well I just upgraded someones computer into a brand new system. I kept the old HDD's because they said they had pictures and no passwords. Then they realized that their daughter had password on and now she can't get her files. I have access to the hard drive and the old password. Problem is it will only boot the old version of XP in safe mode, and my mouse doesn't work in safe mode :blushing:

    Any ideas on how I can get the files?
