hi, why not to make a 64 bit clone of DW from scratch that relies upon MS protection mechanisms just like geswall. You have a good chance as development of geswall is stagnant.

I can't seem to goto the gladiator's forums . Do others have the same prob?

[JRViejo]

hamzah95, no problem going to http://gladiator-antivirus.com. Why don't you try http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com to see if it's just you.

[hamzah95]

Thanks, that website says that its just for me. Is there any other way I can goto gladiator's?

Doesn't work with either Google Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer.
I get redirected to a login page of the forums. If i login, I get redirected back to the login page again.

[JRViejo]

What happens when you click on the Gladiator link I provided in my post? Can you see the site at all?

[hamzah95]

I get this, its the same message:

No, doesn't work. Still get the same message. This has happened to me before, i thought it was due to the private beta testers discussing something. It got fixed after a day or two. but its back again.

EDIT: Guys it works now thanks.

[JRViejo]

hamzah95, great to hear that it works now. Take care.

Yep, but multi core PC's the slowest part is your hard disk and disk I/O is even leaner, so incredible protection versus user interaction/system load ratio.

Well, when testing the private beta it felt as a release candidate, no wonder the public beta feels like a finished product.

If it's happened before it can relate to negative dns cache entries and how they are stored.
http://www.updatexp.com/dns-windows-xp.html

When you visit a website, Windows XP tries to speed things up by placing the DNS information about that site, into a DNS cache on your PC.

This is OK until there are problems with the network, DNS server or even the website!

You see the DNS Windows XP cache stores BOTH negative and positive entries. The positive entries are those that the DNS lookup was successful and you could connect to the website.

Negative entries are those where the DNS lookup failed and you could not connect to the website.

A problem can arise here because if the DNS cache hold a negative entry and the website you want to view is now OK to view, Windows XP will still give you a DNS error!

By default these negative entries are cached for 5 mins. But we can tweak the registry to NOT store negative entries at all!

There is ALSO another potential pitfall with the Windows XP DNS cache...

Most ISP's and Domain name registrar's now update their DNS information (TTL) every 4 hours instead of the twice daily updates that were common few years ago.

I hope that Stem tests this firewall out and gives his views.

Yes, it's possible. But not right now. And, BTW, it's "whitelisting" too.

sigh. scrolled through the 90+ posts and didn't learn helluva lot.

Firewall. I had read across the months that the new DW version would include a firewall.
No screenshots here. I'm hoping to find screenshots of the firewall rules creation interface.

Every single computer being sold these days comes with Windows 7

Hi Mom {wave} lookit me! Lookit! I'm on the internet, arguing like an idiot! 110111!!!!

the view from here:
Netbooks are the hot selling category this season. (WindowsXP)

laptops: Many kids are asking for Apple & only wind up "settling for" a Win7 laptop if mommy/daddy won't, or can't, shell out $1200+ for the Apple.

I skipped Vista altogether (ZERO perceived benefit and mucho perceived frustration) & will not consider WinNT6.1 (aka Win7) at least until SP1. My loss? Shrug. I doubt most of of my apps even benefit from "Dual Core" presence in my current PC.

The Apple statement did make me laugh so ill give you that. Tho I would feel sorry if they did get a Apple, As apple's go bad after a wile start turning brown and squishy.

Btw if you want screenshots of the program take 10 min install it set it up and look for your self. Its faster then writing a post complaining there is no screenshots.
