Daylight savings time is not observed in ....[snipped] So what's their reason for not observing DST? All I know that in Queensland (NE Australia) the story (in the other states anyway) was that they refused it because it was fading their curtains too much (all that extra daylight donchaknow!). <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/sm
i urge you get off of ME ''Specially if you''re heavy !
FWIW, I''''m experiencing this also, but only if I click on someones nick in a message thread (i.e to see their ID # or desktop etc). Further investigation reveals: in my case it only happens on the first attempt (at clicking someone''''s nick... etc) after opening a new thread. So if I make a second attempt (in the same thread), it succeeds. Yet further checking: does not occur consistently when opening new threads. Jus tjumped to 2 new threads & it worked OK. <img src="http:/
However I just downloaded the trial version of cuteftp and almost got the sasser worm. That''s got nothing to do with FTP. The sasser worm will attack your machine (if it''s vulnerable) just because it''s connected to the ''net. Think of FTP as a file manager that works on remote computers. All it''s for is moving files around between co

When I visited Sweden once I was told that in the 50's or 60's the government decided to change from LHS to RHS - including road signs etc etc. Obviously it had to be done virually 'overnight' (can you imaging a 'gradual changeover'! ). Even so, I'm let to believe that their road toll has never exceeded that of the weeks following the changeover! <A HREF="https://www.win

If you have a dialup connection, you have a internet provider, right? And, you click that exe to connect to the internet. That''s not the only way of providing a dial-up conection. In fact IME it''s rare compared to the ''normal'' way of creating a new dial-up connection in the ''Network & Dial-up Connetions'' folder. These items are speci

Make sure you are downloading the appropriate .reg file for your OS. I noticed a large difference in the size of the key between the downloaded ver and the one in my PC. It didn't work for me either at first. My preference was to modify the registry key directly because it's only one byte (bit actually) that needs to be changed. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIG
It looks to me like there were 2 updates in the last 12 or so hours. Last night I tried the update (it was build 271) which kept crashing. Build 275 installed fine just now. YMMV of course!

Chris, isn't this the idea behind getting full color support on the Bootskin Program? Getting the OS to use a different VGA driver than the one it is currently using? If I was a Stardock developer (hint, hint ) that's something I'd look at <img src="http://i

Oh yeah, I''m wondering too. How does System Commander use so many colors before the operating system boots, and our Boot Screen program is having so much trouble with multi-colors? I'd say it's precisely because it runs before the OS boots - it uses it's own 'driver' to talk to the VGA card and determine the capabilities of it etc and d
Been using 1.04 on a Win2k machine and an XP machine for weeks now with no probs (both laptops - but I disable hibernate). Apart from the Win2k progress bar bug (it jumps about randomly instead of nice scrolling) they've been fine. Looking at the links provided by Brad - I only see 3 negative reviews at Download.com and about a dozen at DeviantART. I would think that compared to the total No of users it has to be a vanishingly small proportion of complainers, right? I guess Brad is seei

On a somewhat related question... I have bootskin installed on a Win2k Pro PC and a WinXP Pro machine. On the Win2k PC the progress bar is decidedly 'jerky' in it's, well, progress. It appears to stop then skip back & forwards almost randomly. On WinXP it's smooth as a baby's... Is this a known problem? The Win2k PC is a P4M 1.7G (laptop) and the WinXP is a P4 2.6G desktop so
I gotta say massive props from me too!! I only just decided to have a look at bootskins recently and I'm thaaaat close to having a go at making one!
