Well, how many yuan are in the $250,000 fine per pirated copy of Windows you have? I don't know about you, but I don't have that kind of money spilling out of my pockets, and yes, MS is actively hunting down violators...

They will hunt you down, Chris, every employee of CodeProject, then go through the server logs and find out the IP of everyone who downloaded the stupid thing and hunt them down.

You just asked a bunch of developers, who write software for a living and, as such, detest piracy, where to get something to pirate software! What do you think the reaction is going to be?

Man, you should use a legal license instead. Respect the developer labor that build this software.

Never use a pirate software, cause you are retributing the hard work of the employees of a company, but always a company is a company and ther is an only few accionist who really enjoy the hard work of us, long life for us who make software, and that few I think for them is what we have piracy

Not enough information. You need to look at the source of the event and double click it to get the details of those events.

Hi, I put Windows XP Service pack 2 on my laptop the other day, and now its really slow. The CPU is at 50% constantly now. Has this happened anyone before?
|
|
|
|
|
I noticed the same. In my first attempt I downloaded the updates for Microsoft and installed them, I noticed there was a hell of a drag. I then decided to buy a new version with SP2 pre-installed, which is a lot faster. I think what slows the system down is all the darned update packs!

Check what is your CPU model. If Intel Celeron, then this is the cause of the problem. And also check your physical RAM and what kind of application that you normally run in a normal mode. Check which application consume most of the memory. If your computer have two partition you should move a page file from the first partition to the second partition and increase the size for page file.

Best suggestion I can offer is to download Process Explorer[^] and see which process is using all the CPU time. If you post which process that is, maybe we can help.
Windows XP has a flaw in Explorer where, if you right-click a file that isn't selected, and the Task Pane has to adjust its size, a thread goes into an infinite loop and uses 100% of one processor (or physical or logical core on dual-core or hyperthreading processors). This condition goes away once you dismiss the context menu.
If the process is a svchost.exe process, or 'System' (which isn't a true processes), then double-click it, and go to the Threads tab. This will show the threads running in the process - make a note of the one that's using the CPU time. For best results, download and install the Debugging Tools for Windows[^], set the _NT_SYMBOL_PATH environment variable for access to the Microsoft Symbol Server (see here[^] for how to do this), and point Process Explorer to the Debugging Tools version of dbghelp.dll via Options, Configure Symbols.

How to check on WinXP if the connection to Internet has public IP address (is not behind NAT)?
|
|
|
|
|
what does this have to do with XP ?
BTW, can't you write a script (at least), or your own exe to check this ?
|
|
|
|
|
Men this is a one command, why u need a special script for it?? I wrote about WinXP, coz I`m using it and I would be thankfull for that WinXP-command

Get the IP address of the machine and see if it is in one of the IP ranges reserved for private use. These are 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255, 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255, 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255. IF the address falls into these ranges, then it's a private IP, not routable on the 'Net. But, even if the address does NOT fall into these ranges, this does NOT mean that the address does not sit behind a NAT or other firewall. There is no reliable way to tell if the address you get is publicly accessible from the outside 'Net.

In fact, you can't really know the ip is really from a public ip or connect behind NAT since you should not know any private IP behind NAT. However, I found that MSN PLUS can detect show both the public and private IP of the user. I don't know why it can do it as well. I can just guess MSN PLUS may know the algoithm of traslation IP in router so that it can show the private IP.

MSN Plus can show it because that information is in the headers of the HTTP request and IP packets used to send them. The information he's looking for is built up during the transfer of the packets down the network. It is NOT all put into the packets before they leave the client machine, only some of it is. The network itself puts the rest of the information in.

any idea guys ??? my system is running slow and gives an error that says that the system is running low on virtual memory. How do i increase it?? Please!!

1) Add more physical memory (preferred)
2) Increase the size of your page files
Windows will by default expand page files for you.
If you're seeing the popup frequently, reduce the amount of software you're running at one time. If you're not running much there's probably a memory leak somewhere.

I need to look at the HTTP packets for GET and POST transmitals to a web server, from a browser (IE, etc), in the case where a User is cliking on the SUBMIT button within a web page that has a Form on it.
We can use any browser, if that makes the job easier.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert
