Re: Universal Extractor Update (Bioruebe version)

It seems to me it simply "puts back in" every file that is\was in the original installer (or portable version) of Universal Extractor. Or it checks some outdated list on the author's website. I don't know, but everything is back to where it was before. Stuff I deleted, like text files, doc...

Re: Universal Extractor Update (Bioruebe version)

AutoIT Error Line 2335 (File "C:\Users\Me\Desktop\UniExtract.exe") Illegal text at the end of statement (one statement per line). There was a little problem with the beta 2 release, please manually search for updates to get a fixed (Beta 2b) version. That was a quick fix. Thanks very much...

All right. I tried to unpack the installer version of MPC-BE, but it failed.
This error message popped up:

Re: HOSTS file

I have stopped using the traditional hosts file, because 1. a large file slows down browsing (at least on my not exactly state of the art system) 2. too many items will be missed, no matter how many entries you add. 10, 20, 30, ... doubleclick items still leaves gazillions of sites uncovered.
