Not an O/OE expert but there have been posts about then going south when the PST? files were 'too large'. Is that a possibility? U|Is there a way to compact? If it really gets bad, to verify that it is an O/OE problem you might try Eudora, Pegasus or some command line sender just to confirm...

Hullo Crusty & Devas, Nice, useful thread.... I've got Opera, Navigator and IE junk to worry about, not to mention I have no intention of letting MS tell me what my favorites are. I made a batch file named Cleanit, it is run in Autoexec.bat and also then available in case I ever want to use...

Does the login allow you to run a PIF instead of a batch file and then edit the properties of the PIF to minimize? I'm not sure I got the question right. There is also this thing called ToglScr which switches screen sizes, it could be used to minimize the screen in any batch file (9x/me at least)

Hi You could also do TimeDate | SetTimeDate Then %date% and %time% are available from the environment. Whichever you find simpler will work. The Date returned has / but I know the author and could easily get one done without the slashes. Hey, forgot, source is there too, so you can...

If the file was split, did you 'unsplit' it to make it one big file again? Then you should just unzip the one large file. If the Admin put a zip password on it, ask them for the password.

PAndersen Nice Link! Couldn't find that before, I guess my Googling was not using the right keys. grin.

Yes, the technique is fine, the original was Quarantine, from OnDisk software, April 1988, when the only other anti-v processes were Dr. Skulason's F-Prot and David Chess' pattern scanners. Q got some awards as did the others. By 1990 Quarantine could also check files periodically in a...

Norton A-V send out emails back to people who send viruses. Klez spoofs From addresses. OK, I am sure that NAV has a switch to turn this off, but ... UniversalCare.com has sent me messages that I sent a klez, from an email address that I never use, not to mention I never emialied...

Yeah, I store hashes and check before running things like Winsock or Eudora, it takes about a second. Most of the time is given back as the code about to be launched is now in the disk cache. I just leave the hashes in a text file on the grounds that no one else is doing this and so hackers...

Pansophic, Nicely! I want to work at your joint (big grin). J

Hi ScottyJohn, I knew there was a simple solution lurking somewhere. It finally unlurked this AM A really simple solution for Time/date in 9x/me command procedures (bat files). If you run the command line: timedate | call settimedate then Date= and Time= will be set and you can then...

Panasophic, Stringent policy that. Have you a policy on WiFi? It seems to me that 802.11b could poke a big hole in perimeter defenses.

Ram checking I found DocMem and ran a quick test. Seems OK http://www.simmtester.com/PAGE/products/doc/docfeat.asp It seeme to be a good job, it runs in DOS, which is one clue that they are serious about getting to as much memory as possible. It loops through many times, so be prepared to...

Yesterday IDG noted an update for all windows users to remove critical problems in their Java VM. This article: http://www.idg.net/ic_950348_1794_9-10000.html If one goes there one is eventually sent to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ This page requires ActiveX Opera 6.03...

Right mudskipper DOS is pretty limited. You could get Kixtart which might do that, expect ir would, or write a very small BAS program. The following winds up to be a 4,128 byte long EXE (done in BCX/LCC) but could be done in VB. dim a$, i ! strdate (a); for(i=0;i<strlen(a);i++) if...

Hello Cindy, As to your last question, USRobotics has the generally strongest rep and higher prices. I have had good luck over the years with seven Zoom modems, as an alternative for saving about half of USR prices. I have not had good results from some other brands including Lucent and...

If you look at the detail of headers there are various 'IDs' such as --------------------------------------- Return-Path: <notifyme@tecumsehgroup.com> Received: from mailgate2.sover.net (mailgate2.sover.net [209.198.87.64]) by mailhub1.sover.net (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id g8ICtOh27256 . ...

Please, Strongm, 8 hour meetings are hell unless you are the judge or CEO (smile). Even then. The error I get in VB5 may be something to do with scripting hosts? After the security problems with various, I dumped them. Samples like yours snafu on my VB5: Service Pack 3; Prof. not enterprise...

Good Mulga... If you just want the file names without all the rest use the /B (for brief) switch. If you need a folder tree, use /S (for and subdirectories). IOnce you are in DOS you may use DIR /? for a list of the switches.

Hey Strongm Yeah, simpler if you have scripts, not native. Dim fso As FileSystemObject Bombs out on &quot;User Defined Type not Defined&quot; Acutally, I wish you'd solve that for me, there's a bunch of things that would be easier if that situation were not blocking things. Don't worry...
