Living Room / DonationCoder.com swag (shirts and stuff)
« Last post by mouser on December 10, 2005, 05:46 PM »
so.. we are going to be setting up some shirts and other apparel with our new mascot (https://www.donation...index.php?topic=1093).

i think we will probably be using cafepress.com, though i'm open to alternate suggestions.

i'd like to hear what kinds of things people think we should make available; you can see the cafepress product line here:
http://www.cafepress.../info/sell/products/


fair warning:

we are not setting these up to be fun things to buy with donationcoder.com mascot on them (we will be separately providing a little iron on decal with the mascot for anyone who donates), because that would mean you'd buy a donationcoder.com tshirt for $15 and of that we would get $1.  so that makes no sense.

instead, the idea will be to do like pbs, make these special gifts for large donators, and special rare prizes to give away to show our appreciation to people who contribute to the site.

UrlSnooper / LATEST VERSION INFO THREAD - URL SNOOPER - v2.41.01 - Mar 24, 2017
« Last post by mouser on December 10, 2005, 04:36 PM »
URL Snooper is a program written to help users locate the urls of audio and video files so that they can be recorded.

Many links to streaming audio and video that you come across on the web are hidden behind javascript or activex scripts. Because of this, it is sometimes very difficult to figure out the actual urls that correspond to the streams being played. URL Snooper provides easy solution to finding the URLs for all streams by by watching network traffic and identifying potential urls, especially streaming media urls.

Web page:



2.41.01 - Mar 24, 2017
  • [MajorFeature] First High-dpi compatible version beta.
  • [Bugfix] Minor UI bugfixes.
  • [Improvement] Better mouseover hints for General Options.
  • [MinorFeature] New option to not clean/truncate displayed urls.


2.39.01 - Nov 6, 2015
  • [BugFix] Custom application links could sometimes drop surrounding quotes (thanks Quaraxkad).

2.38.01 - Apr 28, 2015
  • [Feature] New option to start sniffing immediately when program is started, even in advanced mode.
  • [BugFix/Feature] New option to better handle the "Also Find" text.  In previous versions a url would be excluded if it did not match url filter type (multimedia vs all), even if it contained an Also Find keyword.  You now have an option (enabled by default) to always include results that match the Also Find keyword, even if it does not match the url filter type.  This is most useful when restricting search for multimedia urls but also anything containing the keyword.  Tip: Use ; character to separate multiple keywords.

v2.37.01 - Dec 31, 2014
  • [Feature] Added new option to capture a few packets subsequent to any triggered capture, to help see what information came after the triggered capture.
  • [Feature] Larger block of data is saved around found urls.
  • [MinorFeature] Ctrl+A to select all urls in view.
  • [MinorFeature] Added quick forum link to help menu.
  • [MinorChange] Removed "minimize-to-tray" captionbar button.
  • [BugFix] Mixed rare mystery exception crash on sniffing.
  • [BugFix] Removed rare error report of "too small packetmem"
  • [BugFix] File search dialog was malformed; program hung if you didn't specify files to search for.

2.36.01 - Sep 17, 2014
  • [Feature] New option to filter results so that they MUST contain certain keywords.
  • [MinorFeature] Ctrl+C in result list now copies selected url(s) to clipboard.

2.35.01 - July 14, 2014
  • [MinorFeature] New export option to export all columns of result table
  • [MinorFeature] You can now control whether new packets are automatically shown live in packet viewer; selecting a result in grid automatically turns off live packet display so that you can view the selected packet without pausing.

2.34.01 - May 19, 2014
  • [BugFix] Some adapters were shown with same name in adapter list -- adapters are now shown with more descriptive names.
  • [BugFix] UrlSnooper was failing to sniff from some adapters (when those adapters were shown with identical generic names in list).

2.33.01 - Nov 28, 2013
  • [MinorChange] Better formatting for timestamp column.
  • [Feature] When scanning files (instead of network traffic), the filename is now shown in SourceIP column.
  • [WinPcap] Now distributed with WinPcap v.4.13
  • [Feature] Option to check for updates at startup.


OLDER VERSIONS:

NOTE: You can download French+German+Chinese+Hungarian translations files from the web page (and translator kit is on program page for others who want to add translations).

2.32.01 - Feb 4, 2013
  • [Feature] RTMP multimedia links were not shown when multimedia protocol filter was enabled.
  • [MinorChange] Improved text labels for search filters.
  • [MinorChange] Changed auto network adapter test url and search string
  • [BugFix] An error about "Scrollbar property out of range" could be generated when resizing raw packet view panel.
  • [BugFix] Parentheses in urls were truncating urls at that point.
  • [Feature] View Live Packets option is now on main window and easily toggles live packet panel (size is remembered)
  • [Feature] Added datetime column to url grid.
  • [Documentation] Updated documentation with some links to a few popular downloader tools.
  • [Feature] Portable zip now uses ConfigDir_Default.ini which is overridden by the presence of a ConfigDir.ini file, so users unpacking the contents won't overwrite any custom ConfigDir.ini  they may have.
  • [Feature] Now using a dual package (installer and portable zip), with portable zip preconfigured for portable use; installer and executable are now signed.

2.30.01 - Nov 4, 2011
  • [BugFix] Finally fixed "Index out of Range" error that some people were getting.
  • [Minor Feature] Improved built-in update check option.

Version 2.29.01 - Feb 15, 2011
  • [MinorFeature] Updated with latest version of WinPCap (4.1.2)

Version 2.28.01 - May 4, 2010
  • [MinorFeature] You can now use \| in your favorites files to specify saved search parameters with | in them.

Version 2.27.01 - April 24, 2010
  • [MinorFeature] You can now save protocol/keywords/alsotext in your favorites menu items.
  • [MinorFeature] Added menu command to reload favorites data.
  • [MinorFeature] Added rtmp and related protocols to known multimedia protocols.

Version 2.26.01 - December 13, 2009
  • [BugFix] Improved detection of network adapters -- was failing to list all available adapters on some people's computers.  Thanks to ixxo and everyone else on dc forum who reported and helped test (see here for the thread).

Version 2.25.01 - October 29, 2009
  • Updated with latest version of WinPCap (4.1.1) - Now supports Windows 7
  • [BugFix] The error about index out of range when network adapters have changed on restart should be fixed.
  • [BugFix] Settings file was still being saved in application directory even on Win Vista/7; new version respects configdir.ini and portable settings, as well as storing working files in user documents directory by default on Win Vista/7.

Version 2.23.01 - March 14, 2009
  • Updated with latest version of WinPCap (4.1beta5).
  • Improved wording of automatic network adapter detection failure message.
  • Improved packet reconstruction should reduce chance of packets being split in the middle.
  • [BugFix] Urls incorrectly shown as from http://0.0.0.0 fixed.
  • Added SourceIP column.

« Last post by mouser on December 10, 2005, 08:36 AM »
for the intrepid coding snack author, it might be nice to make this a more generic tool that could catch a range of windows messages besides just wm_devicechange, and launch programs based on receiving certain ones.

General Software Discussion / Re: A question, maybe you guys can help me...
« Last post by mouser on December 10, 2005, 08:25 AM »
i'm moving this to coding snacks - i'm guessing based on jazper's suggestion about wm_devicechange, that this may indeed be a simple coding snack.

i'm thinking a tray based program, with a simple list of rules saying, when this wm_devicechange message comes in, launch these apps.
and a nice wm_devicechange "spy" window that lets you see a list of received wm_devicechange messages seen so far so you can find the one corresponding to your device.

the program should also check if the app to launch is already running, and do nothing if so.

« Last post by mouser on December 10, 2005, 12:37 AM »
hehe i see someone has learned to use button linking :)

by the way here is a tip:
when you link to other dialogs which should not ever be shown independently (but only in response to linked button press), then name those other dialogs with .cfi instead of .cfg, and only use .cfg for the main dialog.  that will keep the other secondary linked dialogs from being shown randomly.

ok i've decided to have a little contest on this to encourage people to help make some funny dialogs.

at least one free softwae program will be awarded to the winner of "funniest" dialog submitted; other submitters who submit a lot of dialogs may win something as well. :)

« Last post by mouser on December 09, 2005, 10:24 PM »
this might be a good idea for a coding snack - if no one knows an existing program i'll move it over there if no one knows an existing program.

a question that might help to figure this out -
does anything "happen" already when the device connects?
ie a new icon in tray, a messagebox that is displayed, a change in the drive list in explorer.. i.e. anything that a program watching could look for and trigger on..

Find And Run Robot / Re: TalkAboutShareware thread
« Last post by mouser on December 09, 2005, 08:24 PM »
again, i can't tell you how much those nice words mean to me.  this has been the real reward of this site, finding you people.

i think there is something to be gained by engaging people, even those who disagree, and i think their points are worth taking seriously.

in fact, it has given me some ideas, and i've posted one of them to that thread now which i intend to implement this weekend, you can read about it here:
http://groups.google...b0a54?scoring=d&

basically what i suggested was this:

here's another thought -
people are (perhaps rightly) focusing on the 6 months renewal thing.
the main point of that was like most of our approach, to try to get
people to really *think* about donating; we hope that by getting them
back to the site after 6 months of use they will realize "hey i really
use this program, and the site has just gotten better in those 6 months
since i decided not to donate, maybe now i will".

but as i've said w.r.t. people being able to email me to request a
non-expiring license if they are sure they don't want to donate, maybe
we could allay some concerns if we simply said this:

Your initial freeware license key generated will turn into a "startup
nag/reminder" (and not expire the program) after 6 months.
At that point you can return to our site and generate a *permanent
non-expiring license key* for the program.

That would 1) make it so the programs never stop working.
and 2) make it so you only ever have to come back once for a renewal
key, after that it turns into full normal pure non-expiring non-nagging
freeware.

Alternatively if we were worried that that would make it just too
tempting to hit the "make me a non-expiring license key" button and
quickly never look back, we could ask that they renew twice before it
turned into a full non-expiring license key, i.e. after 6 months you
download another 6 month key, and after that you are given permanent
non-expiring license key; that's a no brainer for me and i see no
reason not to add that right away; later we can decide maybe we should
just give a permanent key at the time of first renewal.



So i'm going to make those changes this weekend; i think it addresses the more serious and important concerns expressed by the people in that thread and is consistent with the philosophy of the site.  it does add a bit more to explain, but that's par for the course here :)

Living Room / Ricky Gervais new audio show mp3 (from the british version of The Office)
« Last post by mouser on December 09, 2005, 07:27 PM »
quite funny audio show from the maker of the brilliant british show "The Office"

Exclusively available online from Guardian Unlimited
A half-hour of all-new drivel from Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington
In which Ricky, Steve and Karl discuss ...
the pros and cons of technological invention, leading on to Karl's Malthusian concerns and a possible solution. There's a digression into the extra sensory perception of early hominids. Oh, and some Monkey News of course. Plus strange tales about lethal drinking vessels and stately homes.
