Site/Forum Features / Re: Should we experiment with google ads on the site for 1 month?
« Last post by cmpm on March 15, 2010, 08:56 AM »
I see advertising in most threads here by the things people here recommend.
Those program developers might consider donating as well.
And I'm sure some do.

These ads by users who have these programs, like them and refer us to them.
Without getting paid to say what they say,
just talking about them or what someone else uses and prefers even.
Better then any other ads I have ever seen.

I edited that other link out, not being sure of it's functions.
Although you can still get to it from the Benubird site.

A little more info.
When it imports files with extensions of your choosing, it leaves the original where it was.
That was a concern of mine when starting out with BB.
Here's the screenshots I was talking about.
In the forums of BB, keeping existing tag, meta, and exif data is discussed.

I haven't looked at Benubird since moving to W7, but take a look at these screenshots. One of them says you can edit the data you speak of. I would copy some pdfs to a new folder to test it's abilities.

I just came across it again on the 4free feed and looked at the site today, and remembered this thread.

That would be cool. Even to make a slider for program choices, if it could be accurate.
I hardly ever run a full scan, it just sets in the tray doing it's job.
If I already did a full scan, why do another?
I suppose just 'cuz, and mostly if there's a problem or just run it overnight.

As a minimum a full scan is required.

Yes, I agree, while Nod will do a quick scan after update or on startup. A true test would be to do a full scan. And watching activity as well.

In other words with the program just setting there doing it's normal monitoring is not a true test if the virus is already there before adding the antivirus program.  To install an antivirus without a doing a full scan is not good practice.

Nod can kill the net connections while downloading when a virus is caught.
But i don't know that much about it. I do watch the behavior of my computer for changes after any activity. Launch speeds and resources.....or whatever....

when you do a scan, as MBAM touches files, Trend finds virii

The same is true with Avira.
Mbam will stir the pot, so to speak.

I used Avira for a long time with no problems,
except for a few false positives.
I've now switched to Nod32 and very pleased with it.

If you hide a dormant virus, sure most will miss it until it tries to act.
Detection reliability would be the scores I'm interested in.

For me Nod is lighter then Avira, uses less resources for scans as well.
I don't know what numbers are being looked at.....with everyday use.
I look at, can I use my computer while a scan is running as if it's not.
Nod has that ability, dropping it's load down if the computer is being used.

As a side note and probably not the solution.

Are the font settings for the OS set higher then normal?
Try setting the fonts to normal in your graphic settings,
or perhaps lower, which I haven't tried.

Right click desktop, properties, settings, advanced.
Is where the font control is for XP.
W7 is right click desktop, personalize, display.

Hope that helps.

The SAS scans do take a while, like doing full backups.
I set scans and backups to run when I go to work or sleep or away from the computer for a while.
Or use another computer.

I bought Malewarebytes, but not SAS, I just run it occasionally.
And I think SAS or a similar spyware cookie hunter is needed.

Malwarebytes seems to miss tracking cookies that SuperAntiSpyware will find.
That's with the real time monitoring as well.

Both free and pro versions here-

Same as Malwarebytes, the free version will do the job of the paid version, except real time monitoring.

In VLC and MPC-HC, the device controls are hidden in the options.
Which is what I thought you were looking for.
So it would not be easy for someone to find that doesn't know they exist.
I think they would use any libraries, folders and even playlists you have or create.

SendSpace allows up to 300gb for free account.

http://www.sendspace.com/

Adrive only allows you to download one file at a time.
Upload is limited to 1000 files at a time. Last time I used it anyway.
And if you upload it will not check if the file is already there.
So you can't keep uploading the same folder if it gains more files and expect adrive to recognize the ones you already uploaded.
It's ok for storage though, but not for constant upload and download operations imo.
