Living Room / Re: Unknown service (can't find relevant info on the web)
« Last post by mouser on November 26, 2005, 09:40 PM »
does anyone know of  a good webpage about "what to do AFTER you find a virus/trojan on your computer" ?

i've been lucky enough not to find myself in this position, but if i ever found a trojan or virus on my computer i would consider the system compromised and do a very thorough check of everything.

i would assume that any trojan found was not the only one present and would consider it important to figure out exactly how it got on my machine; if i couldn't trace back the origin and convince myself that there were no more present i would strongly lean towards restoring the machines to a known good backup.

yet another reason and reminder to do monthly drive image backups.

by the way you can find pointers to the different programs and our past reviews here:

it's not an add question -
i think skrommel is so used to using "AutoHotkey" that he forgets that most of the world has never heard of it.

all of skrommel's utilities are written in a very cool free scripting language system called AutoHotkey:
http://www.autohotkey.com/

it's definitely worth installing since you'll probably be seeing more scripts from skrommel you like :)

most of the time skrommel adds tools to his page but sometimes if its short like this one he just pastes it in a reply.

so you would copy and paste his code and save it as a file with a .ahk extension, and then after you install AutoHotkey you can run it (or compile it into an exe using autohotkey tool).


while i'm here i have a question for skrommel:

1) can we drag and drop files onto this autohotkey script from explorer to have them renamed?
2) if we compile the script can we do this?
3) in your line setting the separator, would there be a way to specify a SPACE character as a separator?

great-
but i'd still like to know a bit more about the error so i can figure out what might be causing it.
can you tell me if it happens after you get the first page of the installer screen (with a Next button), or if it happens even before that.
did you see the initial messagebox saying it was about to run the installer?
34209
good question.

i actually made sure that all the discounts extend a couple of days into december,
so the discounts that say they expire in december really expire around dec 4th.

so everyone will have a few days after the drawing where they can still take advantage of the discounts.

so i encourage everyone to download and try these programs and see if they are something you might want; some of these tools are being offered at discounts you won't find anywhere else.
34210
may i just note that it's always nice when someone submits a request like this which is well thought out and presented in detail; makes it easier to implement.  nice work luckman and skrommel.

we've discussed some of these tools before, and i know there are some reasonable ones that are free.
as for not appearing in the tray, may i suggest:
1) learn to love icons in the tray like me
2) OR get yourself a tool that can let you hide any icons in the tray that you want, which can be ideal if you are suffering from tray overload (http://www.pssoftlab.com/ is a shareware one).

also try this -
all of the donationcoder.com setup .exe files are actually zip compatible and can be manually unpacked.
try opening the processtamersetup.exe in your zip program and extract the files manually, and then run the program without installing.

« Last post by mouser on November 25, 2005, 07:43 AM »
can you say where the exception occurs - at what stage in the setup?
34216
though i have to admit that the basic procedure being asked for is a nice idea -
might i add to this the ability to CHANGE the separator character.

ie change from
A,B,C,D
to
D - B - A

i still think is kind of crazy to write this separately from a renamer as a new project.
34217
surely most of the renamers support regex rename
34218
i really like this idea - hopefully skrommel will see it and come up with something.
34219
this sounds like a nice feature to have in a renamer -
but before someone like skrommel tries to write this, might i recommend instead we look for a renamer which already supports something like this using regular expression rename, which would work well in this case.

have you searched for the actual k.exe file - finding that and looking at it might shed some light.
