You need the Microsoft Japamese Imput Nethod Editor... I believe you can download it from M$ site.

It seems that software just doesn't last like it used to... The time between new versions is decreasing too fast

Why don't you just compile it and run? beezer: b 3 beezer: z 21 main: b + 9 main: z + 18 These are called "local variables", they were designed to allow "recycling" of identifier names within functions, but I also find that it makes it more difficult to comprehend the program as a whole. In beezer() z is the name of one of the parameters, so it becomes initialised with whatever it was called with. In main(), b and z are as they are initialised prior to the call to beezer(). I personally wouldn't write code like this either, even though the language allows it.

Don't worry about it. You bought the software, it's on your own computer, and you're not selling or giving away copies to others. M$ won't care about what they do not have control over.

how to let VBA programmer import the objects I've written in .NET?
LLXX replied to sirpelidor's topic in Windows XP
The best location would be in the program's own directory, and *not* in the systemdirs unless it's a globally used component like the C runtime DLLs. If you import the DLL in your program or use LoadLibraryA/LoadLibraryW, it will find it automatically - the search locations are: current directory, system32, windows, and any others on the Path. If it's imported, just call it by name. If you used LoadLibraryA/LoadLibraryW, use GetProcAddress after the DLL is loaded, to obtain the address of the desired function. Call to that address to use the function of the DLL. -
Massive help, either C/C++ or VB
LLXX replied to Michaelhh's topic in Programming (C++, Delphi, VB/VBS, CMD/batch, etc.)
Actually, arithmetic coding can be much more efficient than Huffman - since it can theoretically use 1.7 bits for a certain symbol whereas Huffman will have to use 2. On large files the difference adds up. -
How could they make an otherwise ordinary videocard (2048x1536 is the highest I've seen) output a 3840x1024 signal?

The BIOS is probably right... the recovery utility is probably looking for a specific model of drive (OEM) instead of the actual drive assignment by the BIOS... try another diagnostic program to see what the general agreement seems to be.

Connect a laptop to the floppy.

You can always reformat + reinstall Why don't you just not install it in the first place? Then you don't have to remove it.

I didn't know they even had networks there... Would MS-Paint work well enough?

I translated a page with BabelFish, then translated the other way the translated page Here is a better example.

Do not delude yourself... it has been proven that random data is not compressible no matter what you do to it, unless you have removed information. On examination of your descriptions, it seems you're just explaining VLE/Huffman process in detail. I see no fruits in your efforts -
EXECryptor software protection
LLXX replied to Jean5's topic in Programming (C++, Delphi, VB/VBS, CMD/batch, etc.)
Easily unpacked just like Armadillo and Asprotect. But it'll be enough to scare away the n00b crackers IMHO all software protections do not really "protect"... they just serve as challenges for the crackers and reversers "What man creates, man can destroy" Also, if your users are very pleased with your software, you need not encourage them to pay... they will do it automatically -
Try enabling "Emulate SATA as PATA" option if there is one in the BIOS.

I've routinely used characters in the 127-255 (high byte) range as passwords... the actual keyspace is ~ 224^8 for an 8 character password. A true 8-byte password would be 64 bits, whereas 224^8 is equivalent to approximately 62 bits of key.

The other day I was working with pipes on a command line... and thought of this funny idea - redirect the output of one online translator into another: MSFN after translating into Italian and then back again

I absolutely detest its application to PCs. The claimed advantage of Java is that it's compatible with different machine architectures, but -- how many different architectures are common anyway? There's only one, and that's the x86/PC (soon to be IA64/PC). I find Java, just like .NET, an unnecessary extra layer of code that only wastes system resources and decreases performance. However, the only application I see for Java is in handsets and PDAs, where architectures still have not standardised yet. There is where it is very useful. But still, Native code > Interpreted code.

VB6 keeps crashing on me!
LLXX replied to aylmerj's topic in Programming (C++, Delphi, VB/VBS, CMD/batch, etc.)
I don't think it's the exit, since it crashes when I press the button to start it. How do you know if it is suspicious address? It's actually quite hard to determine if it's overwriting something else unless it's writing to kernelspace or null addresses.Perhaps you should run it under Win98. It crashes almost immediately after I start it. The NT-series of OSs are more resilient to memory corruption, which is why it seems to work for a while before crashing. In this way they hide flaws and make debugging a bit harder. -
[SEC] How to protect ourselves against keyloggers?
LLXX replied to Wai_Wai's topic in Networks and the Internet
Also won't work if the keylogger doesn't log keys in-order, but just hooks editboxes and retrieves their contents. A few of them do this. However, it's still a little extra security at little cost. -
Some wireless cards just have problems resuming from the low-power state. I have a Netgear card that does the same. I had to disable and then reenable it in the Device Manager to get it working again. Now I just set the power options so it stays on all the time, and haven't had any problems with it since. Unless you're using a laptop, just leave the computer on and turn the monitor off when you're not using it. I've had more problems with standby/hibernate/resume than anything else

Yes... it's a standard Windows installation. 561Mb sounds more like an OEM version with additional drivers/program/etc. Mine is 138Mb with TOUR included.

Disable unused services and your memory usage will go down as well as the number of svchosts running. My XP Pro machine normally has 17 processes running, I think only 4 of them are svchosts and none of them take as much memory as the one you have. The maximum I've seen is 10Mb from one of them.

VB6 keeps crashing on me!
LLXX replied to aylmerj's topic in Programming (C++, Delphi, VB/VBS, CMD/batch, etc.)
It might be an off-by-one error, which can gradually overwrite addresses until it reaches the end of the page. What happens if you decrease the number of times the main loop is run to a very small number e.g. 5-10 times only? Does it still crash or not? -
0.0.0.0 is what I use in my hosts file... and it really doesn't take that much effort to s+r all the 127 to 0 so you can try it and see if it's better...
