How about ReactOS? It started off fresh, is based on the principles of nix and is binary compatible with windowsUmmm, "based on the principles of nix"? It's an opensource re-implementation of the NT kernel, how is that "based on nix"? (you could say based on VMS, though, considering who developed NT and how).-[deXter] (October 02, 2007, 10:31 PM)
That's not fair. Spinrite recovered data of a dying drive for me once, when all else failed and the other alternative was spend £400 for recovery services.-iphigenie
It also recovered everything on a drive where the partitioning had been messed up by a linux installation.Spinrite doesn't do filesystem recovery, it only "fixes bad sectors" - so you must have used some other application as well.-iphigenie
Pool Paged Bytes is the size, in bytes, of the paged pool, an area of system memory (physical memory used by the operating system) for objects that can be written to disk when they are not being used
About the only thing you can do is get a list of the tools they would be using, and try to detect them and shut down the game if any are detected running. (and don't forget to detect if the game is running on an OS in something like VMware)Badbadbadbadbadbadbad idea. Users really don't like this, and there's a lot of room for messing things up. And why not allow running on vmware? that's plain lame. And it is not something that will stop crackers, or even slow them down.-app103
Personally, I couldn't find a freeware replacement for SpinRite.Snake Oil works just as well.-[deXter] (October 02, 2007, 12:54 AM)
- but saying that Armadillo is only touchable by the highest level of crackers is wrong. It's one of the more established and well-known protection systems, so it has received a lot of attention, and a lot of essays has been written on it...Well thanks for being neighbourlySo in other words, Selkie is simply a linux-based filecopier that will copy files off the filesystems the linux kernel supports?
Selkie is not limited to 'NTFS volumes' it (or SHE) supports FAT32 and earlier FAT file systems and most Linux and Unix partitions.
We've also set it up so that Selkie only deals with the data files in 'read only' form so she can't do any damage while she's rescuing your stuff.
On the downside, we can't do anything with corrupted volumes - this is because dealing with corrupted file systems requires that the end user be fairly technically-savvy, and we're actually trying to go for the typical computer or laptop user in a 'do-it-yourself' format.-Selkie (September 27, 2007, 06:44 PM)
