We had to run MBAM, A-Squared, and something else I can't remember to clean all the stuff MSE let in while it was :: cough :: protecting :: cough :: his computer.Out of curiosity, was he running with Administrative rights when this happened?-Innuendo (October 13, 2009, 05:43 PM)
lol @ that picture, that way downgrades are easy too and probably must be done once a weekTwice actually, but the (update) flies (only live 3 days...) are basically self updating so there is no real work involved.-rgdot (October 13, 2009, 02:20 PM)
It's a shame things can't be kept simple. I like HP machines just for the fact that after buying 6 I think I had one that was bad OOTB. The others have all been plug and play, working until obsolete.True, simple is best in the long run. ...And yes my view is a bit dimmed by seeing mostly (end user) client machines.-MilesAhead (October 12, 2009, 06:33 PM)
I am amazed at times at the power of the written word though. I had one customer when I was doing auto repair, that got a "winterize" special done. We flushed the radiator, yadda yadda.. then when it came time to put the anti-freeze mix in, he would not allow us to put it in the radiator because it was a Chrysler motors product, and on the radiator it said "use only Mopar anti-freeze." That's like saying "use only snowballs made with General Motors water." I'm serious. The guy actually went down to a parts store and came back with a couple of gallons of Mopar anti-freeze and made us put that in!!!Mechanic Huh? I spent many years as a mechanic in motorcycle shops, If it wasn't for the arthritis I'd probably still be doing that. I still do all my own work (and some specialty work for others) but I pay for it at the end of the (and next) day. I believe I actually liked engines better than computers; engines are visceral, tactile, & soulful... while computers are sterile & in-tangent.
I wish I had an option on some swamp land for that dude!!!
Here's another Snow Leopard bug (though not as bad as the delete your data bug):Remember Think Different ... This is merely another demonstration of just how aw inspiring intelligent Mac users are. Just look at the OPs testimony:

How many other OSes get so confused you have to type your login password backwards to log in?
OS X...it just (half-ass) works.-Innuendo (October 12, 2009, 08:25 PM)
What I quickly discovered is the password must be typed in reverse order
Just 2 cents to spice things upnow that's scary . . losing all your data:

We really need more detail about how much of what was being scanned before deciding if 60hrs is too long. Granted MSE's behavior/performance on XP isn't stellar from what I've seen, but it's certainly not the worst either. It's behavior has been fine on my x64 Win7 box (E6600 CPU).The scan time thing is by design. The intent being that the computer is still usable during the scan (which does take awhile...), instead of being completely crippled for a few hours like most of the main stream AV suites out there.-Stoic Joker (October 11, 2009, 07:40 AM)
If that's by design then it should state that fact plainly before the operation starts. It's only polite behavior for a program to inform me of how long something is going to take if it is going to take over two and a half days (that's 60 hours) to complete.-Innuendo (October 11, 2009, 10:31 AM)
Not bad. About $1200-1500 worth of stuff, just for making three trips out to his car with a handtruck.Where the hell am I when this kind of thing happens-40hz (October 08, 2009, 07:03 PM)
lolreal credit goes to Eoin for guessing the core problem, which was that the delay was the result of the callback returning inconsistent comparison results. after that it was just a matter of figuring out why that was happening.Actually both i2-i1; and i1+i2; worked after the external array item you spotlighted was fixed. Something about that had always bothered me...just not enough to poke it with a stick. At least not until you tipped the scale by drawing attention to something that was obvious, but was also hiding another not-so-obvious boo-boo on my part. (Hint: the local definition of the array that the external reference was pointing to, was neither 7 nor 14 ...-mouser (October 07, 2009, 10:40 PM)

:i think Eoin may have nailed it.Sorry No Joy.-mouser (October 07, 2009, 05:37 PM)
A ListView will hang if the CompareProc returns inconsistent results, eg a < b < c but c < a.Hm... wouldn't that then have to fail consistently for all (numerically sorted) columns? In the program (with the issue) half the columns are sorted numerically and half are sorted alphabetically. Out of the numerically sorted columns there are IP Addresses, (alpha-numeric) serial numbers, and some actual real live plain old numbers ranging from (roughly) -185,456 - 1,456,789 all of which sort just fine ... unless they are in column 14 (13 if you count from 0 - the control does). It just doesn't track that a logic bugg would be that forgiving.
In the code posted there seems to be a logic error in line 20, really seems like it should be return i2-i1;-Eóin (October 07, 2009, 04:49 PM)
how many rows of data?Doesn't matter be it 3 or 300 (Most I ever tried was 2000) behavior is the same.-mouser (October 07, 2009, 03:33 PM)
Never heard of such a bug (but not saying it can't existIf I'm understanding the question correctly, the control is managing internally. I'm not doing anything OwnerDrawn/Clever it's just a fairly straight forward ListView_InsertColumn(...) ListView_InsertItem(...) sort of affair.
How do you manage the items? virtual mode, or letting the control manage strings internally?-f0dder (October 07, 2009, 03:43 PM)
I do wonder why people have to edit text files that large. Viewing and searching is understandable wrt. logs, but editing? O_oWell, the last time I did it was for a plumbing company that aws transitioning frome one inventory db app to another. The "Export Module" didn't include the field names/column headers ... so I had to add them manually for the other softwares rep.-f0dder (May 28, 2009, 09:19 AM)
All the addresses listed are SMTP, no MAPI/X400 or LDAP addresses listed ... hence no Exchange serverTry creating an email to the person (you don't need to send it) and then in the To line right click and look at the properties. It should have the email addess listed but you can never tell with Outhouse.Yeah, but are you using the global address list from Exchange? That is where the root of all evil is.
Update: I am using Outlook 2007 and the email addresses are clearly shown on the Contact forms and are selectable.-Carol Haynes (October 06, 2009, 01:41 PM)-superboyac (October 06, 2009, 03:34 PM)
