oh wow you have a huge screen there, and the list view looks nice.

are you using wintidy? can it remember the icon position or you are using 'desktop restore' to remember the positions?

« Last post by kimmchii on July 05, 2006, 06:31 AM »

what version of winrar do you use? i have version 3.42 it unpacked it without any problem.

may be this is related to the error you seeing: NOD32 and WinRAR 3 Archives

if bypassing NOD32 didnt help, try an older version of winrar see if it fixes it.

LButtonDrag=1
MButtonDrag=1
EdgeDrag=1
[OtherSettings]
EdgeTime=1000

Oo er ... it downloaded quickly but it is taking WinRAR an age to unpack it (longer than the download!)

-Carol Haynes (July 04, 2006, 05:17 PM)

winrar took only 30secs to unpack for me, i think it was your AV that slowed it down, bypass NOD32 and try again.

i read thieir Website Use and Conditions they look alright and reasonable to me, but if the documents contain credit card and confidential info, then it's not that safe to use these online editors i guess.

you can stream the flash file if you like, no need to download first, like what we see in youtube, ie.

there is an "Embed" code, paste that on your website and it will stream from youtube.

Image Manager Shootout / ACDSee - the best image viewer for large files

« Last post by kimmchii on July 02, 2006, 01:29 AM »

my computer has 1GB of RAM, pagefile is off.

the image i was trying to view/open:
type: .tif file
size: 75 MB
image properties: 61803x7200x32b

(if you like to try, this is the image in rar (yousendit link)

i tried a lot of image viewers, nothing worked even when i turned on the page file to 4GB, most of the viewers just freeze.

ACDSee (version 5 and above) opened the image beautifully even with pagefile off , mem usage increased from 30MB++ to 130MB++ and then dropped back to 45MB when the image is opened.

so amazing, big thumb ups to ACDSee.

edit: fix link.
