Re: This & that

"DNS error" means that there is no longer a website called zenosys.com. That's why it can't be accessed.

Re: Observations and Questions about RAM usage

Keeping page file enabled would be a good idea if there was a way to fine-tune it (no, DisablePagingExecutive isn't enough alone). Under Linux, there is a setting called swappiness which can be configured between 0 and 100 (0 = avoid swapping as long as possible; 100 = use swap very aggressively). I...

Re: Observations and Questions about RAM usage

Are you sure that what you're seeing is a drop in "commited" memory, and not just a drop in "allocated" mem? Asking because IF its just allocated mem dropping, then one possible explanation would be, that when apps get minimized, windows frees currently allocated but unused mem ...

Re: What is best Anti-virus, spyware, malware?

Well, if you keep every application you use in your sandbox, you depend on the sandbox. In case something damages the sandbox, you simply don't want to recreate it from stratch. :( Hmm, i didn't explain this complete enough. What i meant was that every application gets its own sandbox, similiar to ...

Re: What is best Anti-virus, spyware, malware?

There is one badly overlooked way to avoid damage caused by malware: backups. My way to back my data up is quite extreme: I use Clonezilla Live to create complete disk images of my system every week. Look, unless you are an experienced expert of your O/S and quite skilled, you are likely not to even...

Re: Observations and Questions about RAM usage

As explained in what I linked, it's only trimming of a working set, not swapping memory out. Windows (or any other reasonable OS) never swaps memory out unless it's necessary, MS programmers are not that dumb. Sadly, thats not what i see in practice. Neither on my machines nor on other's machines. ...

Re: Console Calculator

Did you know you included your 'CCalc_functions.txt' file in the archive? The original archive (3.0.1) only contains the program and html help file. Oops. :oops: I thought CCalc_functions.txt is there by default. I should have actually opened the file... I'll re-upload the archive after several hou...

Re: FAT32 or NTFS ?

Heh. Just because something is popular, doesn't mean it is good, or even works properly. The general public respond remarkably well to marketing, especially the ignorant ones when it comes to IT matters. There are many examples which I will not mention, this topic already seems to be a little hosti...
