how long does that take in miliseconds? I know he was asking that, but I was just putting that there for other peoples information. He aleady had the question answered.

Does anyone know how to get the web integration (new folder view, quick launch, etc) on win95? It used to do it when you installed ie4. but I went from win95c with NO internet explorer (used something like win98 lite) and then installed ie5.5 ie 5.5 is working fine but had no option for the "desktop enhancement".

ok so the only way to do it is to go from nothing/x to 4 then update to anything up to latest. hmm. thanks!

you always lose a lot of quality OR get huge files.

although, with a bit of tweaking, you could probably do it...the "run this program in real mode (or whatever it was called)" option in shortcuts of dos programs was good.

no, it doesn't give that its more like multibootong, with an option to go to dos instead of windows.

faff around? it's way easier to just copy the files. 1 drag and 1 drop. besides, because it is a standard windows shortcut, you will be able to use them with any browser, providing you have it set to your default browser.

no - I was using it as an example I would like to know how it is possible to encode an mp3 with out losing quality as it is a lossy compression, as in wma

I dont believe you even saving a .jpg twice will lose quality.

but don't you lose quality during re-encoding? I find it better to just get a wma codec for your player...nothing wrong with wma

Look under these registry keys: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx theres also other places...but look here first

music match is trash sound quality is not in LAME's class

thanks! Ive done the tweak...time will tell if it has fixed thr problem for me (I played for a whole week thinking it was fixed before it happened again last time)

or if you just want to backup your favourites or give them to a friend, they are just shortcuts stored in C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Favorites by default

Do You Speak ENG-LISH?

The what?

Well I've looked into it further, and each release of cdex comes with the latest LAME codec and it is selected as the default encoder. go for it!

not "THE" exploit, "AN" exploit. There are many, and they can crash clients. The other day I was playing on a 16 player Internet server with 3 other people on the LAN sitting next to me. We got into an argument with someone who was, lets just say not being very polite. He left the game then suddenly everyones screens came up with that exact error message. I restarted half-life and re-joined the server. The server was empty. I typed 'timeleft' in the console and there was only 4 mins left of the map, which proves all the clients crashed but the server remained. It was most likely that player used some kind of crash exploit. That doesn't mean you can't crash individual clients. If you look through the half-life/counter-strike changelog history, you will often see a 'fixed client crash exploit' for each new version. However, yes, also try Ronin's suggestions, as It is not necessarily an exploit.

no, Half-life is built on the quake 1 engine

Also, look at point 2 in the article: Quote: There is a distinct difference in the way that vulnerabilities are counted for Microsoft Windows and other operating systems. For instance, applications for Linux and BSD are often grouped in as subcomponents with the operating systems that they are shipped with. For Windows, applications and subcomponents such as Explorer often have their own packages that are considered vulnerable or not vulnerable outside of Windows and therefore may not be included in the count. This may skew numbers I think this is a pretty major point. Do you realise just how many optional applications come with these distributions? that would make this quote: Quote: since it has even less features than a Windows OS (and far less application support) basically wrong. As mentioned, I believe that with both systems configured properly, linux is already far more secure. The article is also based on default installations. Whichever is the most secure now, all things aside, I sincerely believe that when things settle - When linux matures and reaches some common standards, It will be amazingly more secure. There is much greater support for fixing vulnerabilitys in linux.

Or maybe it's just because Linux is still in such a developmental phase with things changing around a lot. Look how many releases there are of it, and how many parallel distributions. Windows has only 2 versions - 9x and NT....which has now become one. or maybe....it's a CONSPIRACY

wait, are you trying to tell me that via/amd products are released unfinished 100% of the time, and Intel's are always 100% complete?

thats interesting because the versions of these programs that worked with Win2K'a NTFS don't work with XP's NTFS. You have to update these programs: Symantec/Norton Ghost 6 Partition Magic 6 NTFSDOS and I'm sure others.

I tried all those and it seemed to reduce the problem but not eliminate it. It seems to be just a bunch of theories. As well as the ones above, I've heard a lot of others including: [*]use 16-bit colour in OpenGL [*]Update the mouse drivers [*]hl.exe -console -noforcemparms -noforcemaccel -zone 4096 +voice_dsound 1 [*]Turn off "smooth mouse" in half-life settings [*]Use 60hz regresh rate in games. [/list:u] I *may* have fixed the problem. I keep thinking it is gone but it sneaks up on me again after a few days. Anyway it is at a minimum now. Even though the problem seems to be caused by XP's new mouse system, because it really only effects quake engine games, Hopefully Valve will adress this issue in the next Half-Life Update.

that story is obviously an attempt to deter people from linux. Nothing more. [*]The article was written during the one period that windows had less known holes that linux. [*]The counts are the number of holes found and resolved, not the number of holes. So another way of looking at it is Linux security improved much more than windows during that period. [/list:u]
