The attachment showed up in the "Attached thumbnails" as I had expected. I then edited the post a little bit later and added a second attachment (animated Cookie Monster). When I viewed the updated page, I had a large box that showed both images full size. However, below it, the attached thumbnails box only showed the original picture but not the added one. I thought that viewing attachments full size from within a post was only available to members that have donated within the last year (which I have not :o ).

I was wondering if it might be possible to increase the size limit on attachments, especially for .txt files.

The current limit is 500kb and it is becoming increasingly necessary to have longer logs/results in the malware removal forum to keep up with all the new ways malware is hiding on people's systems. That limit is reached quite easily, especially if I asked for more than one log file.

I've had to point users to another website where they can upload their files for free, but the ads and popups on those kinds of sites make it seem as though I'm suggesting they go to a "adware" supported website to get their malware problems fixed. I recently came across a better free solution ( http://drop.io ) but I think it would be so much better if we can keep the attachments local.

I would have them just post the results as a reply, but the character limit is also very low there as well, and the possibility exists that users will miss some lines in the results if they try to break it up to get around that.

If it's is a problem, would it be possible to increase the limit on that forum alone? ]]> NeonFx http://forums.techguy.org/site-comments-suggestions/873702-solved-attachment-size-limit.html The Photo Album forum http://forums.techguy.org/site-comments-suggestions/873487-photo-album-forum.html Sun, 01 Nov 2009 14:58:48 GMT The photo forum is starting to look like a collection images gathered from the Internet rather than the member's contribution to photography.
Out of 30 threads ( default setting) on the first page
17 have nothing to do with photos members have taken or own .
1 of them is to say hello.
The rest seem to be images of interest.

I'm not trying to argue a definitive rule here, but I am wondering about the role of the forum as it's shifting away from personal photography to a forum of links to interesting topics and images.

Perhaps the people that insist on flooding the forum with linkage to what catches their eye..........would focus their efforts into one general thread under their own name.......like for instance....Tom's interests.....or post in Random? ]]> Stoner http://forums.techguy.org/site-comments-suggestions/873487-photo-album-forum.html <![CDATA[What's up with TSG servers???

How hard would it be to make a rule that members must have 5 (pick a number) posts before being allowed to post a link to any external website? Or to include a link to any external website in their signature?

Homegroup by valis

Ahh…..remember the good old days of computers, when plug and play was something we did with our Atari 2600’s (and in some cases, still do), and adding a peripheral would take at least a weekend? I fondly remember the time that myself and a gent who is now a senior BIOS engineer spent about 14 hours hooking up a printer. DIP switches, jumpers, telling your PC how many clusters were on your hard drive; those were the days.

And thank goodness they are gone, because after that 12 hour ordeal regarding the printer I’d about tossed it and gone back to long-hand.

Regardless, they say in the industry that hooking up a thousand computers is far easier than hooking up two, and as I routinely have to set up domains in remote places, I tend to agree with them. I can’t remember the last time I used a crossover cable; those things gave me such a headache it was just easier to slave the other hard drive in your extra bay and go from there.

Windows RC 7 has eliminated many of the vagaries that us gray-beards reminisce upon, and that is absolutely fine by me. But by far and away my favorite tool of Windows new OS is the homegroup function, which works the way that I firmly believe the original workgroup function was intended to.

Below you will see a picture of my current set up, with regards to homegroup; the pc cannot find any other pc’s on the network, and politely informs of the fact that if I wish to run this function, I’m going to have to pony up another pc or three:

As I type this, all I am going to do is hook up one of my spare rigs to the router; no monitor, keyboard, KVM switch, nada, and show the results.

As you can now see, I’ve got another pc to share data with. But first to join. That’s as easy as setting up the homegroup itself; choose a password, and off you go.

The irony here is that this is a feature I tripped over, as the day I installed RC7, my dvd writer went to that great database in the sky. And as I was looking for my thumbdrive, I noticed that ‘homegroup’ option. And being the engineer I am, I saw a button, so I pushed it. The rest, as they say, is history.

This is going to be a hugely valuable resource for IT professionals. I remember when Microsoft nailed with the ease of sharing calendars in Outlook 2k3, and how rapidly that caught on. With this function it will be very easy indeed for just the average user to set up a quasi-domain in their house amongst several pc’s. The ease of setup, the ease of use, and the very simple fact that Microsoft always keeps that button very clearly available in Explorer is going to make the transition even easier.

phpAnywhere.net by Linuxphile

It's a novel concept, and maybe an expounding on the idea of editing your documents, spreadsheets and presentations online: editing your code online.

Think about it. Many coders come to enjoy the simplicity of an advanced file editor that simply provides syntax highlighting and general formatting capabilities. Both of these are easy enough to achieve with a little javascript and style sheets.

phpAnywhere.net does this with the coming soon feature of code completion. phpAnywhere.net is a relatively new service that allows for the managing of your PHP based project from any machine in the world, provided that machine has internet connectivity.

Currently you can add an FTP server, delete/create and edit files from the server. The edit capabilities allow for an unlimited undo.

I've used this tool to successfully build a simple music library manager. On a slow internet connection (256Kb/second) the editing of the code was very responsive. phpAnywhere offers forums with apparent access to the developers. Reporting bugs in the forums seems to be quite successful as well as asking questions concerning the project management within the tool.

Today phpAnywhere is still in beta, however the project is very promising. With the added feature of code completion, support for Chrome, and better project management I can definitely see myself using this tool when I am not at my own computer, however, I do not see this tool replacing vi for me.

Microsoft Security Essentials by linuxphile

While recording the Tech Support Guy podcast Mike mentioned a new anti-virus product from Microsoft: Security Essentials. Mike mentioned this product was to be free to home users and mentioned he was running it on his Windows 7 based laptop.

I had long since become dissatisfied with the bloat of AVG Free since version 8 was released and was quite willing to give a new free alternative a spin. In fact, who better to offer protection for an operating system then the company which writes that operating system.

Microsoft Security Essentials is available for Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7. The only software requirement there is that the operating system pass the genuine check. So I visited the Microsoft Security Essentials page and grabbed a fresh copy of the installer.

One of the first steps of the installer is to verify that your copy of Windows is indeed genuine. Having passed this test I sped through the next/next/finish process and Security Essentials was installed.

Upon first starting up Security Essentials will check for updated malware definitions. I say malware because Security Essentials protects against Virus and spyware both. In fact I'd say it's a direct replacement of Windows Defender.

Both the quick scan and the full scan options run considerably faster on my hardware than AVG has in a long time. I am also happy to report that Microsoft has learned the anti-trust lesson and has not bundled Security Essentials with their new Windows 7 operating system. I tested the live/active detection by downloading files known to be infected and verified the detection by Security Essentials. This anti-virus suite is less bloated/invasive, performs better, and appears to work just as well as AVG. My home Windows based machines have been updated to use this product rather than AVG Free.
