Can my Windows NT/2000/XP computer become infected with a virus?
What would you think?
-
I am using IE 7
So am I and I never have a problem from FileHippo.
While you are on FileHippo I would suggest you download or Run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.41 and do a full scan.

I am trying to download the update from the Defraggler site. All is well until I come to install the download then I get the above error message
Thats strange, I always use FileHippo for all Piriform apps.
-
I believe you have that reversed ... Windows XP formats to NTFS. I'm not sure about XP Pro but XP Home only supports formatting to NTFS.
Winapp2.ini: Use NTFS if you intend to store large files, e.g., video. With FAT32, maximum file size is 4GB minus 1 byte.
My WinXP Pro will only format FAT on a floppy and my external 160GB drive will only format FAT, NTFS isn't listed.
-
It came with some junk on it I dont want but more importantly; in FAT32, Should I format it to NTFS or leave it as FAT32?
I don't know which system you are using but you can't format NTFS on WinXP only FAT and its not FAT32 either.

Welcome to Piriform Gemini2601.
When I try to download layest version I get the following messageError opening file for writing
Can anyone help me?
Are you downloading Defraggler or using Run? Try to download the file. I always download then install and it always works.
Bye the way where are you finding Defraggler to install?

Welcome to Piriform geve.
Running Defraggler on a XP-Sp3 it is not showing size in GB in "Capacity" and "Used" nor "Free Space"Which version are you using?
1.13.155 shows the correct info on mine.

I had a similar message on my WinXP at work. That would give that message about 5 times before it would boot up. I reported it to the IT tech and they said I have a faulty hard drive. They came and replace the hard drive and did a rebuild and it was ok.
It just shows how s***ty WinXP is. I had to do a rebuild on mine today as it crashed last night. It wouldn't start up in any mode Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking, Safe Mode with command prompt. Last good configuration or Normal mode. I even tried the R restore of the CD but that say I have an invalid folder. Well it unstalled it there.

Welcome to Piriform Redbird.
It would be nice to let the installer remember the options supplied on the 'Install options' page.Now I have to provide these options every time there's new version. This is quit annoying...
- If you don't want the 'tool bar' options remembered (I can understand this), you might move that option to an extra installer page.
I don't understand why the other options are not remembered. This is default functionality for (almost) all installers
Well that might be alright for you to have CC remember the last install settings but if a user decides to change their mind over what is installed they won't be about to will they? If someone doesn't bother with the Yahoo toolbar then they decide to have this option it won't show on the next install will it?
-
IE has had problems on the site though from my knowledge.
Well I use IE6 at work and IE7 at home and nothing like that as ever happened to me on either my Win98SE, WinME and WinXp systems. Perhaps I've always been lucky?
-
I get the "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive F:." error... when scanning the registry. Any idea as to why this may be happening?
Yes I used to get this error when running 2.22.968 it was supposedly fixed with 2.23.993 but I still get it occasionally. This was reported in Announcements.
Untick each checkbox and run it again by ticking 1 checkbox at a time. You will find that ActiveX and Class Issues has to be ticked for this error to show. I've also had MUI Cache ticked and it showed the same error.
-
Write the code in so only one instance of CCleaner can be running at any given time.
Well I'm sure MrG has been used to VB before because CC was first made with VB. In there you can have code that checks if the app is already running.
If App.PrevInstance = True Then'CC is already running'stop this app from runningEnd If
I'm sure there much be some code in C++ that does the same.
-
I wouldn't have thought it was a browser problem Andavari as I've always used IE and I've never have a problem downloading any file. I would think it sounds like a connection problem myself.
-
I open CCleaner and then I click at lower right where it says "Check for Updates." Then I choose to download the Slim build. The download begins and then gets 75% - 90% of the way though, and then I get pop-up message:
"Internet Explorer cannot download ccsetup223_slim.exe from www.ccleaner.com. The connection with the server was reset."
Why do you need the slim version anyway. Is this the same when you download anything or just CC?
Personally I would use FileHippo and download the file to your drive.

Thats the same pie chart that Windows uses so what is wrong with it? Don't you like the colours?

I am now unable to download new update to my CCleaner on my notebook which has Win98 and IE6.
The download gets 3/4 through and then it states connection with CCleaner was disconnected. (Have always been able to do the downloads in the past.)
This has been going on for quite some time and I have been copying the new CC updates from my WinXP computer (disk) and copying them to the Win98 notebook (pain in the neck). But I am not near my WinXP computer at this time.
How can I download the updates to my Win98 notebook?
Thank you
Alice
(Anyone else having same problem?)
Hi Alice.
Well I've never had any problems installing CC onto Win98. Are you downloading the file straight to Win98 or are you installing from a flash drive?
Where are you downloaded CC from?
-
I upgraded to the latest version of CCleaner and now I do not see an option to remove temporary flash files. I have not made any other changes to my system. Could someone please tell me how can I get that option to work again?
I don't think its listed in Options. Click on the Applications tab and under Multimedia make sure the Adobe Flash Player is ticked. It generally leaves *.sol files behind after it updates, you can do a search for these.

Welcome to Piriforum thunderbolt55.
I tried to download this because i am using a spaywarehammer forum and they asked me to download and use it and it wont download? any ideas as to why? iwent to the site and clicked to
download and it just sat there help would be great? i have use it before? thanks
You've been told to download CCleaner?
Where have you tried to download it?
Well the only 2 places that I would trust is CCleaner direct or FileHippo.

Microsoft killed off AutoPlay/AutoRun after all the malware infections it causes - I think. It wasn't patched all that long ago either.
Well I don't see as that makes much difference if you don't know what in your CD drive.
I've done a restart and enabled D: now the Auto Insert works on that drive, so I'm happy.
I just though I would post that link in case someone else has the same problem.

Ok guys/gals.
For the past week I've had problems with both my CD drives not auto running. Now the Autorun.inf file is correct I just have run the file stated in there. Now normally you can right-click on your CD Rom and select AutoPlay but this option as disappeared. Now on good OS you can check the CD Rom properties in Device Manager and there is a checkbox for Auto Insert on WinXP there isn't. I did a web search for this problem and people were taking about changing the settings in the registry which I did and that didn't work.
I was searching for info on Windows 7 and I came across this Windows XP link at Microsoft. In there they have a Autoplay Repair Wizard on the second page which you download and run. This has the option to select the drive you want to Auto Insert and it works. Now the funny thing is you have to do a restart before you can select another drive. I have 2 DVD writers D: & E: I use E: the most so I enabled that one and it now works.
If this is in the wrong forum please move it for me.

Are you sure?
The current Avast 5 version is a trunk build (and it's free).
The paid versions haven't been even made yet!
I agree with Andavari, you might end up in the Spyware Hell forum.
Yes I'm sure. Avast 4 is suposidly free so how come you click on the desktop icon and it asks to the serial number everytime?
I agree with Andavari, you might end up in the Spyware Hell forum.Yes I have things in place to trap these now.
-
You don't need a torrent link to download the latest Avast 5 beta version.
Yes but do they give you the serial or the crack? I know its supposed to be free but you still get the nagging messages enter the registration number everytime you click on the desktop icon. I have the serial.
-
Yes I know what you mean. Well as far as I know MrG makes CC and TwistedMetal is a Mod I'm not sure if they have disgust adding an help file or not. The comments that I've had back about this is they don't want to increase the installation pack so they don't need an help file because it has an online help link. Its not going to increase the pack that much when the file is only 65kb.
I make programs and I make help files so I know how important they are if you get stuck. I would never send out an app without the help file.
-
Why not?
Plenty of beta softwares get links and writeups here with the usual ''use at your own risk'' warning ( FFox and Opera spring to mind)
I don't think so Hazel we aren't supposed to talk about Torrent sites never mind providing a link.
I tried to download this because i am using a spaywarehammer forum and they asked me to

Yes I downloaded Maxtor/Seagate MaxBlast when I had a Maxtor drive in my old computer. Yes it asks what operating system you need to use and it formats FAT32 or NTFS. But this only works on Maxtor/Seagate drives so if your using another drive manufacturer you are stu***d.
