[21:21] <Tux2> Darn!
[21:21] <Tux2> Hi BC_Programming!
[21:21] <@BC_Programming> hello
[21:22] <Tux2> I've been following you on whatpulse. You seem to type quite a lot!
[21:22] <@BC_Programming> heh
[21:22] <@BC_Programming> I suppose so
[21:22] <Tux2> Although, if I was programming as much as I wanted to I would probably be up there as well.
[21:23] <@BC_Programming> yep
[21:23] <@BC_Programming> never really noticed how much typing was involved
[21:23] <@BC_Programming> lol
[21:23] <Tux2> lol!
[21:23] <Tux2> Yeah, I know the feeling.
[21:23] <Tux2> I should get up there tomorrow though.
[21:23] <Tux2> I have a huge amount of files to write and edit.
[21:23] <@BC_Programming> come to think of it... I haven't even really been doing it heavily, mostly just little tweaks
[21:24] <Tux2> lol, even tweaks add up fast!
[21:24] <@BC_Programming> apparently!
[21:25] <@BC_Programming> I've pressed the E key 15,665 times
[21:25] <@BC_Programming> heh
[21:25] <@BC_Programming> backspace over 5 thousand, lol
[21:25] <Tux2> Hmm... I set whatpulse to upload every hour, but it looks like that feature is broken. :( When the time comes to upload, it doesn't it just starts tacking on minutes...
[21:25] <Tux2> lol BC_Programming!
[21:25] <@BC_Programming> I just pulse every once it a while manually
[21:26] <Tux2> Space Bar: 319, down: 233, E: 163, Backspace: 160
[21:26] <Tux2> At least in windows.
[21:27] <@BC_Programming> I thought I saw a portable version somewhere, BTW... and there are linux versions, too
[21:27] <Tux2> Yeah, if you look I am pulsing from linux!
[21:27] <@BC_Programming> ahh
[21:27] <@BC_Programming> ok
[21:27] <Tux2> Although, at the moment I am in windows.
[21:28] <Tux2> I had someone get an account for my shell server and tried to hack it...
[21:28] <@BC_Programming> heh
[21:28] <Tux2> It didn't work. ;)
[21:28] <@BC_Programming> I hope they weren't successful
[21:28] <@BC_Programming> good
[21:28] <@BC_Programming> I'm sure they tried something genius
[21:29] <@BC_Programming> like trying to copy etc\pwd or something
[21:29] <Tux2> I found out about it when I su'ed into their username and checked their command history.
[21:29] <@BC_Programming> what did they try to do
[21:30] <Tux2> http://milw0rm.com/sploits/2009-linux-sendpage3.tar.gz
[21:31] <Tux2> It is an exploit that doesn't affect my version of kernel, since I keep it up to date. :D
[21:31] <@BC_Programming> heehee
[21:31] <Tux2> He was pretty good though.
[21:31] <@BC_Programming> ahh- "Prior to the 2.6 kernel series, the task_struct was stored at the end of the kernel stack"
[21:32] <Tux2> He also found a way to host a bot on the free account...
[21:32] <@BC_Programming> sneaky bugger
[21:33] <@BC_Programming> he probably thinks that since your not a big corporation or anything that you don't do proper maintenance
[21:33] <Tux2> Yeah, my thought is was he was checking the security of the server for one thing. then when he was satisfied, he hosted a bot.
[21:34] <Tux2> Since he is a hacker and wanted to probably keep his bot safe.
[21:34] <@BC_Programming> ooh
[21:34] <@BC_Programming> you should change it
[21:34] <@BC_Programming> make it useless, or something
[21:35] <Tux2> What do you mean?
[21:35] <@BC_Programming> I'm not sure
[21:35] <@BC_Programming> heh
[21:35] <Tux2> lol
[21:35] <Tux2> Are you meaning hacking his bot?
[21:35] <@BC_Programming> change the bot to err... not do what he wants it to.
[21:35] <Tux2> lol!
[21:35] <@BC_Programming> although personally I'd probably try that for a few minutes, and then give up and just delete it
[21:36] <Tux2> Tee hee.
[21:36] <Tux2> I sent him an e-mail asking him to upgrade if he wanted to host bots, and to explain why he was on millw0rm
[21:37] <@BC_Programming> what's millw0rm
[21:38] <Tux2> It's a website for hackers to download files to exploit vulnerabilities.
[21:38] <@BC_Programming> ahh ok
[21:38] <Tux2> Yeah.
[21:40] <@BC_Programming> My VB6 has been acting a tad strange recently.
[21:40] <@BC_Programming> I went to open my project right after it crashed... and it complained that the project file was corrupt
[21:40] <Tux2> Really?
[21:40] <@BC_Programming> And asked if I wanted to load the rest of the group... which I did
[21:41] <@BC_Programming> and then I manually added the "corrupt" project to the group and it worked fine
[21:41] <Tux2> Nice.
[21:41] <@BC_Programming> actually, come to think of it, the same thing has happened before with forms
[21:41] <@BC_Programming> it will complain that the form can't be loaded, see blahblah.log for details
[21:41] <@BC_Programming> and yet reloading the project makes it work again
[21:42] <Tux2> lol! That's why I don't like windows... too buggy.
[21:42] <@BC_Programming> this program was released in windows 98... for windows 98
[21:42] <@BC_Programming> and I'm running it on Vista
[21:42] <Tux2> Oh!
[21:43] <@BC_Programming> had to whip up a few hacks to get it working properly though...although, it still doesn't quite work
[21:43] <@BC_Programming> all the time, I mean
[21:43] <@BC_Programming> especially with all the add-ins and stuff
[21:43] * Tux2 would install windows XP in a VM and run it there
[21:43] <@BC_Programming> nope
[21:44] <@BC_Programming> also- come to think of it, I ALWAYS have it open... and really it only crashes once a week. and almost always because of the program I am running inside it doing something naughty
[21:44] <@BC_Programming> I once made the whole thing break when I was testing my file search program
[21:45] <@BC_Programming> I had forgotten to close the files... or something... and so every file on my D:\ drive was left open
[21:45] <@BC_Programming> had to close it without saving before windows forced the files closed
[21:45] <@BC_Programming> thankfully saving is subconscious now
[21:45] <Tux2> lol!
[21:46] <@BC_Programming> well I could save... but it would just say "permission denied"
[21:46] <@BC_Programming> because the file was open
[21:46] <Tux2> :(
[21:46] <@BC_Programming> I lost a line of code
[21:46] <@BC_Programming> which I added back in right away
[21:46] <@BC_Programming> then I fixed the stays open issue
[21:47] <Tux2> cool
[21:47] <@BC_Programming> by... closing the file
[21:47] <@BC_Programming> heh
[21:47] <Tux2> lol!
[21:47] <@BC_Programming> well... I mean, adding the code to close the file automatically in my file library
[21:48] <Tux2> Yeah, that would help...
[21:48] <Tux2> I always try to close files when I open them in my java programs.
[21:48] <@BC_Programming> technically the search wasn't really opening the file for reading, it was just opening it temporarily to get a handle to it to use to get information with GetFileInformationByHandle
[21:48] <Tux2> ah
[21:48] <@BC_Programming> I had a CloseHandle() being used, but not all code paths were using it
[21:50] <Tux2> :(
[21:54] <Tux2> I still have to try BC Search.
[21:54] <Tux2> Where is the current version?
[21:55] <Tux2> BC_Programming?
[21:55] <@BC_Programming> on my site... well technically the currentest version is on my hard drive
[21:55] <Tux2> oh. lol!
[21:55] <@BC_Programming> but the latest release is on http://bc-programming.com
[21:55] <@BC_Programming> assuming I didn't break downloads.php again
[21:56] <@BC_Programming> looks like the page still works
[21:57] <Tux2> Yay! Some images are broken, but it displays.
[21:57] <@BC_Programming> the images aren't really broken... I just never put them up
[21:57] <@BC_Programming> heh
[21:57] <Tux2> I just rated your site in mywot
[21:57] <@BC_Programming> thanks :P
[21:58] <Tux2> YW. Somehow my site got a yellow rating in mywot. :(
[21:58] <@BC_Programming> I have to think of icons for bcstreams and bcscript, and make them before I upload them. I should make a default "no image" picture, I suppose
[21:58] <@BC_Programming> yellow... how dod that happen?
[21:59] <Tux2> I don't know...
[21:59] <Tux2> It was green yesterday, but today I looked and it was yellow!
[21:59] <@BC_Programming> weak
[22:01] <Tux2> http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/jrtechsupport.com/comment#comment
[22:02] <Tux2> If you want to rate it that would be great. I just don't want to rate my own site.
[22:02] <@BC_Programming> weird I thought I had WOT installed
[22:02] <@BC_Programming> I keep forgetting though since my reinstall... ages ago
[22:02] <@BC_Programming> heh
[22:02] <Tux2> lol!
[22:05] * Tux2 is installing BCSearch...
[22:05] <@BC_Programming> cool
[22:05] <@BC_Programming> hope it works.... I've only tested them on Vista and XP
[22:05] <Tux2> Well, I am using XP at the moment.
[22:05] <@BC_Programming> alright, it should work then
[22:05] <Tux2> Hmm... question...
[22:05] <@BC_Programming> I hope I remembered to clear the INI File it installs this time
[22:06] <@BC_Programming> not that that's critical... just doubt my folders will be the same as yours, heh
[22:06] <Tux2> lol. yeah.
[22:06] <Tux2> Okay, I have an "error" message...
[22:07] <@BC_Programming> that sux
[22:07] <Tux2> "The Windows Installer service cannot update the system file C:\WINDOWS\system32\msscript.ocs because the file is protected by Windows. You may need to update your operating system for this program to work correctly.
[22:07] <@BC_Programming> ocx
[22:07] <@BC_Programming> oh
[22:07] <@BC_Programming> just ignore that
[22:07] <@BC_Programming> the default XP copy should work fine
[22:07] <Tux2> Yeah, ocx.
[22:08] <Tux2> Cool... I thought so.
[22:08] <@BC_Programming> there might be others- I got the same prompts too, the default XP copies work alright anyway
[22:08] <Tux2> You should put a note on your website so that people know.
[22:08] <@BC_Programming> I might have to look around Advanced Installer to see if I can disable that sort of prompting
[22:09] <@BC_Programming> good idea
[22:14] <Tux2> lol! I have pulsed 3 times in 30 minutes....
[22:14] <@BC_Programming> there, added a little note
[22:14] <Tux2> I better put the key count higher before it pulses...
[22:17] <Tux2> looks good BC.
[22:17] <@BC_Programming> all the little informational thingies are just text files referenced by the downloads database
[22:17] <@BC_Programming> same with the images, actually
[22:17] <Tux2> Ah.
[22:25] <Tux2> BC_Programming, your little search is pretty powerful!
[22:25] <@BC_Programming> thanks :)
[22:25] <@BC_Programming> there are still a bunch of features in the libraries search class that I haven't utilized in the UI
[22:25] <Tux2> I'm going to add a link to it on my website.
[22:25] <@BC_Programming> cool
[22:25] <Tux2> Not that my website gets too much traffic...
[22:26] <@BC_Programming> neither does mine
[22:26] <@BC_Programming> :P
[22:27] <@BC_Programming> I've fixed a few bugs since I released that last version, mostly usability fixes. I really should start keeping track though, because I've completely forgotten what they were
[22:28] <@BC_Programming> oh wait... I remember... I added "Open Containing folder" to the right-click menu, and some copy to clipboard options as well, one for each column on a sub-menu
[22:31] <Tux2> Nice.
[22:32] <@BC_Programming> oh wait... those are features... not bug-fixes
[22:32] <@BC_Programming> like I say though... I really have to start keeping track
[22:32] <@BC_Programming> there, it's on my "task list"... "start keeping track"
[22:32] <@BC_Programming> heh
[22:32] <Tux2> lol!
[22:33] <@BC_Programming> on the very same list where I should be keeping track in the first place
[22:33] <@BC_Programming> I just realized. the sounds I have on the menus
[22:33] <@BC_Programming> those are really annoying
[22:34] <Tux2> lol, I have my sound all the way down, didn't notice!
[22:34] <@BC_Programming> ok. forget I said anything then
[22:34] <@BC_Programming> heh
[22:34] <Tux2> Oops, it is all the way up...
[22:35] <Tux2> And no sounds..
[22:35] <@BC_Programming> good
[22:35] <@BC_Programming> like I said\
[22:35] <@BC_Programming> they're annoying
[22:35] <Tux2> oh... those sounds...
[22:35] <Tux2> lol. Never brushed them...
[22:36] <@BC_Programming> woopsee daisy
[22:36] <Tux2> Now I know what you mean. ;)
[22:36] <@BC_Programming> the ok and cancel buttons on the Column selection dialog don't do anything
[22:36] <@BC_Programming> lol
[22:37] <Tux2> lol
[22:37] <Tux2> I just crashed BC Search!
[22:37] <@BC_Programming> yeah
[22:37] <@BC_Programming> it does t hat
[22:37] <@BC_Programming> whatever you did
[22:37] <@BC_Programming> it's a feature
[22:38] <@BC_Programming> probably that dang dirsize analyzer
[22:38] <Tux2> Yup!
[22:38] <@BC_Programming> I was actually going to remove that until I had a better UI for the concept, since it's kinda crashy and hard to understand the output
[22:38] <@BC_Programming> I was thinking, something like WinDirStat has
[22:39] <Tux2> Yeah.
[22:39] <Tux2> Glary utilities has a nice one.
