I don't care if they know, but do they have to validate my license each time I search?-Josh (January 03, 2009, 05:05 AM)
I’m now on Vista Ultimate 64-bit and wanted to confrim that PS Tray Factor 2.63 (which is a beta) does not work under it (though it worked brilliantly under Vista 32-bit). I'm soldiering on using Windows "Hide Unused Icons' feature, which is "OK", but I do miss PS Tray Factory... Hope the developer gets a 64-bit (or 64-bit compatible) version out soon.-Darwin (January 03, 2009, 09:16 AM)

I've added an item to the todo list that will let users of the Linkman IE Toolbar disable the context menu items.-Outertech Support (December 31, 2008, 02:09 PM)
The only thing I can think to add to these is the ability to control how many context menu items are added to Internet Explorer. I think it is currently four!
If you think that they are all needed, then add a submenu to the IE context menu and have them fly out from there.
Thanks!

I think most users would be against a submenu, because it would slow down the operations.-Outertech Support (December 31, 2008, 08:33 AM)
BTW, in Firefox I use an old extension that I modified to work with FF3 called Menu Editor that lets me configure my context menu however I choose. I removed all but the "Search in Linkman" items, but only because all the other items are already in the status bar icon - which I use quite a bit.
Feature requests:
--Add all 4 buttons to Firefox. (Search in Linkman, Show Linkman, add to linkman, add to linkman and edit)
--Allow users to control which buttons appear or not.
--Import launch count from Powermarks.
--Allow secondary column sorting. For example, if I want to sort by launch count, but the launch count is equal, then the secondary sort can be set to rating or description, etc.
--Allow batch assigning ratings. If I select a bunch of bookmarks and want them all rated "2" then I should be able to do it. Now, if I select them all and go to assign a rating, it only does one of them.-superboyac (December 30, 2008, 05:32 PM)

Probably depends greatly on the exact wording of the license-J-Mac (December 27, 2008, 11:14 AM)
I wrote an article about guarantees a few years back. In it, I offered the following as the perfect wording for an Unconditional Money-Back Guarantee:We offer all our customers an Unconditional Money-Back Guarantee.
If for, any reason, you are not happy with a product or service you purchased from us:
UNDER NO CONDITIONS will you be given your money back. WE GUARANTEE IT.
Doesn't get more unconditional than that.
I ran it past an attorney of my acquaintance. His comment: "I like it!"

I think stopKa is working without any included spyware or worm. A big problem is that the program needs a tricky user to get "normal" results. I also concentrate on the theme Disc-Cataloging and Searching here, but the way he´s promoting it here is by far more intense (pushing) then I do with my own Disc-Cataloger project.-Crush (December 27, 2008, 02:08 PM)
)@J-Mac:
I do regularly AV-scans with different products and have a scanner running in the background the whole time with hourly updates. I think the most also will do so. I run a lot of different programs a day and had no instable system or anything like that in the last two years - only at the moment with stopKa. Why do you guess this could be the reason for our problems with this specific program?-Crush (December 27, 2008, 11:29 AM)
I'm wondering if a good lawyer could not make money on these roaming definitions of the word lifetime. If a dev or company is unwilling to specify exactly what the term means for the consumer, then I think dropped 'lifetime licensed users' users have a class action suit.
In other words, either honor it or don't offer it. I'll still buy your software; I just won't be pissed off later.-zridling (December 27, 2008, 09:56 AM)

I was wondering if there is a possibility that Linkman searches my entire drives and collects all existing IE, firefox bookmarks and eliminates duplicates.
I am carrying quite a lot in too many backup directories and this would help.

From my experience, any of the major brands seem to work equally well. I tend to buy Belkin, more out of habit than for any solid technical reasons. I'd recommend getting one with an AC adaptor, or purchasing one to go along with it. I quickly discovered you'll need it more often than not.
I use this puppy:

(see attachment in previous post)
I bought it primarily for the two vertical plugs, since I do a lot of things with my collection of flash memory keys.
The only complaint I have with it is that it is very light. If you have some quality cables plugged in and hanging off the back of your desk, it tends to be dragged around. A hunk of masking tape solved the problem.
Nowadays, I have a 4-port PCI card and 4 more USB connectors on my mobo, so anything that tends to stay plugged in gets one of those ports. I also keep a multi-plug USB cable permanently attached to one of the ports on the mobo for anything that doesn't like to be on a hub.
If I were buying a new hub today, I'd probably go with this:

What I'd really like would be for someone to do this idea up as a 4-port USB + 2-port Firewire version; and include a multiple memory card reader socket. That would be too cool.-40hz (December 15, 2008, 09:42 AM)
