Comments:
<0> absolutely essential to his bottom line no doubt
<1> "invalid entries", what a crock.
<1> H2S04; yah, something like that.
<2> no, i think that they can be helpful in some things
<2> e.g. removing bunk add/remove programs entries
<2> etc
<1> add/remove software can do that now.
<1> click the bunk entry, hit remove, if the uninstaller is gone, it tells you it can remove the entry.
<1> done.
<0> and if you know enough to know its bunk, regedit.exe makes it easy anyway
<3> as long a human is given the opportunity to look at what the program wants to change
<2> peerce, not always
<2> don't be a retard
<3> a registry cleaner that does stuff without user intervention is just asking for trouble
<2> correct jet
<4> gimp is a hater
<4> ****ing barracuda
<3> but how many people have the capability to look at the output of a registry cleaner and make the correct decision(s)
<4> how long does a website take?
<4> oh nevermind
<4> ive got a turtle peekin
<3> People can't even be trusted to click "No" to "do you want to be infected by this virus"
<3> registry cleaners used by people who actually know what they are doing is fine. Most registry cleaners are marketed to the unsuspecting m***es though.
<5> unsuspecting m***es hehe good phrase
<0> they're a huge net-negative in terms of their overall effect
<4> Barracuda Networks, Inc., the leading provider of enterprise-cl*** spam firewall solutions, today announced that it has been listed on the prestigious "Red Herring 100 North America" listing.
<3> Okay
<3> and that means?
<2> lol
<2> no idea but it's hilarious
<3> It's patch Tuesday, where the hell are the singing cats?
<2> i don't think they are actually patching
<2> altho i've preloaded it already
<5> singing cats?
<4> http://www.barracudanetworks.com/
<4> haha
<2> owned
<3> guess their firewall didn't protect them
<6> digi - did you get that thing back to p***ing traffic ?
<4> well i had to disable AV
<4> but yeah
<6> ah cool
<4> thank GOD someone in here told me about it
<4> i would ahve been ****ed
<2> they do av?
<6> yeah no kidding
<6> i was actually going to put somethiing out on a local it mailing list about it, i know a bunch of them use barracudas
<6> man its spooky that their app just quit working and didn't like .. throw an alert or something :(
<6> but doodoo happens
<7> hi where can i get winsock 2
<8> da doodoo run now da doodoo run
<7> i downloaded spyware doctor
<4> "where can i get winsock 2"
<7> and now i can connect to the internet
<8> trumpet software?
<7> i tried to uninstall spyware doctor but still not working
<7> dunno
<6> funny becuase even through we have redundant mail gateways with mailfrontier, i could SO see the same thing happening
<2> haha
<1> spyware doctor is probably spyware itself
<7> well yes
<7> how can i fix this now
<1> 'winsock2' is the networking API thats been built into windwos since win98
<1> devilz; like you fix anything else, figure out whats actually broken, and restore/repair/replace it.
<9> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3688185030664621355
<7> peerce, dunno what is wrong relly
<7> really
<1> spyware is like cancer. you can cut it out, but it generally leaves damage behind.
<0> devilz: sounds like someone said you should run NETSH WINSOCK RESET
<7> i did
<7> and i get some dll error
<7> it cant run some dll files
<1> 'some dll error', well THATS specific.
<0> :)
<1> wow, 1311 DLLs in \windows\system32 on my computer
<7> wait
<7> brb
<2> slacker
<2> 1328 :P
<4> woooo
<4> 10 frownie faces today in outlook alone
<0> 2609. I win.
<0> prize = DLL Hell
<2> :P
<10> Hi hey I have a problem I have windows xp home sp2 , and everytime I plug a USB hardware .. it wont install the drivers .. like flash memory .. usb mouse or keyboard
<10> it detects them .. it tells me that it cannot find the correct driver for it
<10> but if I plug them onto another computer with windows .. it does install it fine
<11> Victoria
<10> ?
<12> 1184 FTW!
<13> er, if you go into device manager and put the Xp cd in and update the drivers you shoudl be able tot ell it to install from CD and it _should_ install correctly then
<13> and I use 'should' quite loosely
<14> Is it possible to convert a drive from NTFS to FAT32 without losing the data?
<14> It is an external drive with one folder on it, no system files
<14> it does not need to boot or anything - it is for use in a portable media player that needs the drive to be FAT32 to read off it
<13> j______s: check out partition magic
<13> j______s: wait
<13> j______s: yeah, check out partition magic, if that can't do it, then i would recommend copying the contents to another drive, recreate the partition, format and copy back
<14> Right OK thanks for that.
<14> I'm guessing Partition Magic is a 3rd party commericial product?
<15> aka partition tragic
<6> hhe
<6> what's wrong with partition magic? :)
<15> just the other day some dude was dealing with some scrambled files and folders
<15> and came in here.
<6> doh
<6> its always been a pal to me
<15> i've used it with success before too, but there are those horror stories.
<15> I'd never use it with critical data without it being backed up.
<10> mmm I cannot get it to work :( .. windows will not find the drivers for flash memory and mouse or keyboard
<10> it tells me t hat it doesnt have the correct drivers
<10> it use to work fine before
<16> VictorCL; you probably need to install the motherboard drivers for your chipset and USB support and stuff.
<16> VictorCL; go into your device manager, are there any yellow ! errors there?
<17> wow.
<17> my USR 56k got spiked and bit the dust, so I stuck this old ZOOM 56k in here, and it's way faster
<17> I must have had the old one configured incorrectly
<17> score.
<1> USR was highly overrated IMHO. like 3com network adapters and adaptec scsi cards and creative sound cards. they had the market share, but their products were crap.
<15> I remember their deal for sysops
<15> discount if you put an ad on your login screen
<1> the couriers were decent modems, but $$$$$
<18> ive got someones gateway pc that im working on, it came with millennium and she has an xp home upgrade. i need to do a system restore but she doesnt have the XP key
<1> but the sportsters and internals were basically junk
<18> if i call microsoft can they help with that or are you screwed pretty much if you lost your key
<1> she has an xp home upgrade w/o a CD key?
<18> i have the original CD but the insert that has the key on it is missing
<12> peerce: i never had problems with adaptec cards
<1> i dunno what sort of proof of purchase they'll require.
<12> had the 2940U2W
<18> thanks anyway man i might just give them a call
<1> Aurelius; guess you never looked at the SCSI bus on a logic analyzer then. their electricals were the pits.
<12> ran wonderfully for years..
<12> peerce: i had it back when I wasn't into that stuff.... it worked wonderfully, dunno if the internals were "great" but end result == good
<19> http://www.plasticashop.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=P&Product_Code=SPH&Category_Code=NS
<1> those were hyper sensitive to termination and cable quality... the Symbios/LSI Logic stuff was far more resiliant and robust
<19> Got Solar powered Helicopter?
<12> well, i always used good cables and termination... so i never noticed that
<1> also cheaper and higher performance. adaptec had issues with PCI bus timing too.
<1> pretty much all the major unix server makers refused to use adaptec controllers, Sun, IBM, etc all used LSI Logic stuff instead.
<2> who looks at scsi interfaces on a logic analyzer?
<2> seriously
<12> *shrug* it worked wonderfully for me
<12> sorry you had so much trouble
<12> and it worked wonderfully for many other people
<1> Gimp-Cow; i was working at a hardware company at the time, writing drivers, debugging stuff.
<2> peerce by more robust you mean, worked better on ****ty hardware?
<18> damnit all i should have ran a key finder before i formatted the drive
<1> Gimp-Cow; no, I mean worked within specifications.
<2> worked fine in pcs
<12> robust doesn't mean works within specifications
