Not exactly very noob friendly and you can't add items to startup with it but, a very good program none the less.
So a little bit off topic, but hope you guys (and gals) don't mind.

Autoruns

Autoruns has some great features including the ability to hide all Microsoft verified entry's.

I'll post the code tomorrow when I find it.

N.A.N.Y. Challenge 2007 / Mars Project Stage1 - v1.0.61230.15 - December 30th 2006

« on: December 30, 2006, 04:33 AM »

Mars Project Stage 1 - v1.0.61230.15 - December 30th 2006

• First public release
• Basic chat server for the Ares Galaxy P2P chat network

What is Mars Project
Mars Project is a long term project, to be a replacement for the Ares Galaxy P2P network focusing on chat instead of file sharing.
It is being developed in multiple stages, so far only a few stages have been planned out.
Each stage will be fully usable.

Stage 1
Stage 1 is an Ares Galaxy compatible chat server, it works with the Ares Galaxy official client.

Stage 2
Stage 2 is separated into 2 sub stages. Stage 2a will be a custom Mars Server which will NOT be compatible with the official
Ares Galaxy client, but instead will use it's own client.  Stage 2b will be the custom client which will be compatible with the official
Ares Galaxy server, and also be a client for Stage 2a.

Plans on the stages for the file sharing part of Mars Project hasn't been made yet.

Notes on Installing

• Dot Net framework v2.0 is required

Developer's Corner / Re: What non-programming tools do you use for programming?

« on: December 12, 2006, 08:11 AM »

I use a notebook to map out my ideas for the program, and how objects in my program will interact with each other. (going to build a white board so i can easily change my ideas and stuff without wasting paper)

Also when i need to think I pace around my room.

General Software Discussion / Re: Free Windows firewalls found better than commercial ones

Seems a bit unfair to lump Windows Firewall in the list since it doesn't even pretend to block outgoing traffic !

The new windows firewall in Vista does have the ability to block outgoing traffic.

Actually you would be surprised how easy it is to forget it when working with multiple processes.

IMHO he should make the orbitnet.exe as a windows service also then have the user have the option to keep it running in the background as a service or if they don't want it as a service then have it run like it does but make sure it closes when they close the main program.

So far the only thing I see in it that COULD be "something" is a string reference to http://www.sina.com

Upon further review of sina.com it appears that an anti-virus corporation acquired it.
