Programming Contest from DonationCoder.com and Veign.com - Deadline July 1st
mouser:
That is really very nice, and very professional looking.
One idea:
Maybe the program for safety purposes could store a list of the startup state of each item the first time it ever sees it, so that you could look at a log file and see the original state of any process you might later mess with?
Another idea, again for safety purposes:
make it easy to set the active state setting, but make them tick some option to acknowledge they are doing something potentially dangerous when they try to change a startup state.
Eóin:
Thanks both for the kind words. Better safety precautions are a very good idea. Though I must say I surprised myself in a VM where XP booted even with everything set to disabled. It had a fantastically low memory overhead too, but beyond the morbid curiosity I can't see any real reason for trying it :D
mouser:
some more ideas:
1) to the right click menu for a service, how about an option "lookup on the internet"
and have it just open the browser with a google search for the display or processname
mouser:
might discuss with mouser extending this contest a week or two so I get get settled in and we can get a few more submissions

I agree with this.. I think extending to July 14 would be a good idea.
hollowlife1987:
Thank god for the extension, my its a huge load of my chest now that I have more time. Even though I finished it, it's not how I would like it to be for the release.
