I have updated the AdMod Beta again. My good friend Princess (Jorge) was very nice to ping me with an issue he was hitting in AdMod (both previous stable versions and beta) this last week and low and behold after testing I realized it was a bug. A bug in a very nasty portion of […]

I incorrectly linked AdMod when I posted it (http://blog.joeware.net/2010/01/07/1862/) previously. So if you ran it you probably saw an error about a missing DLL unless you had already installed the Borland/Codegear DLLs for some other app. I have recompiled and relinked with static linkages so everyone should be fine now. Let me know if there […]

“Better authentication methods can come along any day now… I’m ready…” That is something I said this morning while working on my work laptop.

When I loaded the encryption software two things irked me… […]

No new info here… Just revisiting my previous post about the recorder that lets you record what you are doing for documentation or debugging. I keep forgetting the command and so wanted to post here so I can find it easier without having to worry that the original poster’s post goes away… So joe, when […]

Mark Minasi has an interesting newsletter this month about a special folder that you can create to see all your CPL’s in one place. Very nice… You can read about it here –> http://www.minasi.com/newsletters/nws1001.htm Basically I ran the following command md c:\_special\cp.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} And then just pull the folder up in Explorer… explorer c:\_special\cp.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} That will […]
