  1. @kroozer tracert.exe is a console app you must run it from within the DOS Prompt (cmd.exe) to stop it disappearing.

     

    @ishan_rulz it seems you have DNS look up problem this is why you're unable to access Piriform.

    I've seen this problem occasionally on my ISP but they usually only lasts a few days or so.

     

    try: ipconfig.exe /flushdns

     

    If that doesn't work append your hosts file "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts" with the following

     

    209.62.107.107 www.piriform.com

    208.67.212.61 forum.piriform.com

     

    Save and restart your web browser for the changes to take effect.

     

    Note that this a temporary fix if Piriform change their IP addresses the host data would become invalid.

    Flushing my DNS didn't work. I even downloaded the "Repair_Network" tool from Shane's website and still a no go.

     

    Editing the HOSTS files seemed to have done the work for me, it saddens me that it is temporary. :(

  2. I couldn't replicate the problem again. It could possibly be some other program conflicting with CleanMem. It happened when I right clicked on the tray icon. It became unresponsive and I had to terminate Mini_Monitor.exe via Task Manager.

     

    My PC specs: 2.4 Ghz Core2Duo and 4.0GB RAM with Windows 7 64-bit in case you are curious.

     

    So far, so good. Nothing's going wrong. :) Thanks.

  3. Installed.

    I have it only because IE is quite necessary on Windows and it a great improvement over IE8, also I like having all my stuff updated lol.

     

     

    Firefox user forever. :D ...Chrome as backup,

  4. I just came across a memory leak or whatever you want to call it. While I was installing the newly compiled setup, it asked me to exit CleanMem/MiniMonitor. Okay.

     

    I right clicked on the green icon in the Notification Area and the CPU usage shot up to 50%. I had to use Task Manager to terminate the process. Any idea?

     

    And it is much better for me now as well.

  5. Ah, I see it. It was 30 for me, had to change it to 15 minutes manually.

    I am so glad I discovered this neat program; thanks Shane.

     

    EDIT: You 'could' add an option for mild transparency to the MiniMonitor for a bit of the Aero feel.

  6. haha, agreed the button did look a bit off.

     

    I used Task Scheduler to make it run every half an hour, is it possible to have a built-in option for that? I love this little program, really makes the PC lag free. :)

  7. Shane, I was using version 1.7 and it had that button on the MiniMonitor which would run CleanMem when you press it. The new version doesn't have it. Is it some setting I need to configure?

     

    Thanks.

  8. Google has released a new version of its Chrome web browser, removing support for H.264 and adding in a 66% faster JavaScript engine. This version 10 release comes only seven weeks after version nine, maybe we will see Chrome 24 by 2012.

     

    The major change is in the Chrome Options screen which has been revamped and will now, according to the official blog, "help you get to the right settings quickly so you don?t have to dig endlessly to find a way to import your bookmarks or change your browser?s homepage." Instead of using the traditional menus, users are now able to type the setting option into the address bar instead.

     

    This release also features the new Crankshaft JavaScript engine which was included with the recent beta. "Even your most complex web apps will run more quickly and responsively," the blog continues to say.

     

    Users who switch between work and home should now find it easier to keep configuration consistent and tidy using the new synchronisation tool to keep on top of bookmarks, extensions, passwords and settings. This is an easy to use option with just a simple sign in with your Google account or by creating a new one.

     

    The removal of the H.264 codec may not come as a surprise to many as Google said they would cut it out earlier this year due to a patent issue with a group of companies including Microsoft. For HTML5 content the browser still has support for Theora and WebM codecs, both of which are open source.

  9. The comments are gold

     

    "He forgot windows ME"

    "I wish I could forget windows ME"

     

    I had ME and 2000, ME was just awful. I vaguely remember using both windows 3.1 and windows NT Workstation 4.0 as a kid.. but I didn't get into computers too much until Windows 98 (and really, xp)

    People our age start off with XP, innit?

  10. Welcome to the forums!

    If you would have used the Search feature you would have realised this has been suggested before.

     

    There has been an argument about it being a possible risk as it might delete folders that are in fact, in use by the various softwares we have on our PC.

     

    Although, I'd like such a feature in the "Tools" section where you can customise your search, etc. but hmm.
