Quite a security risk to use 6 years dead program for 2fa.

Fyi. I found quite nice 2fa app for Windows recently. It has native look but sadly Microsoft Store only.

Hi, anyone here know why I cannot connect to 127.0.0.1:9999 (Abyss configuration page) when using Privoxy, is there a workaround ?
If I use No Proxy then ok but not when Privoxy enabled. I tried other web server app like Xampp or Tiny Webserver then ok, only Abyss have this problem ?

webfork on 2014-07-12 21:10

Cattleya: have you tried changing the admin port (away from 9999)? Privoxy might be redirecting it for some reason.

Eyes open wide as can be, can't seem to spot the new "IPNetInfo - Source IP" option displayed anywhere...;-(

Anyone else with a better eyesight cares double-checking ?

Eyes open wide, but looking the wrong direction...:-(

The new option is indeed present and working as it should, available NOT under the likely "Option" tab,
but rather from two alternate locations :

• under the "File" tab
• in the context menu

Apologies for this unwarranted agitation.

Goanna engine version is 100% PWA able, but you need to save "link" manually (no "install to desktop" support).

It is a 51.4mb minimal install to USB drive vs Palemoon's 73.5mb.

Opera@USB is lighter at 18.1mb, but can no longer load youtube, and can not handle PWA apps

aazard on 2020-11-15 17:06

Correction & Note:

TL;DR: K-Melon Goanna engine is the LIGHTEST PWA ABLE WEBBROWSER @ 51mb on USB ready to use

CORRECTION:

K-Melon Goanna engine UPX'ed single language & default skin only = 51mb (53,566,636 bytes), making it the lightest PWA app able web browser avaible as of 2020-11-15

NOTE:

Gecko engine & Presto engine webbrowsers no longer load youtube, not will D-plus (dillo for windows) QtWeb or Netsuft (very sad)

K-melon (goanna version), then palemoon (current to "many" firefox extensions) & last, seamonkey (heaviest light but current to "almost all" firefox extensions) are lightest non-trident (IE11+, like Avante browser) that load Youtube & web sites with HTTP5; 100% CORRECTLY

Done! I was a little slow this time :D

This doesn't seem to be truly portable. On its first run, it "installs" the portable version, meaning that although all data and settings are stored within the application directory, that location is hardcoded within the settings as an absolute, not a relative path. If that directory is moved, the program will either continue to use the original location for its settings - or, if that directory no longer exists, will "reinstall" into the new directory, and wipe the previous settings and database even though they still existed within the directory. The only way around this would be to manually edit the SMF_Files setting in the SMF.ini file any time the application directory is moved to a new location.

@olliebean: Issue with portable install fixed with v14, please report bugs on my homepage.

I like this player a lot. I love that it can be setup to use relative paths for the music folder (I had to edit the config file for this). My only gripe so far is that it will not read the coverart from the ID3 tags... it only looks at the art in the folders.

AstroGrep v4.4.9

Ennovy on 27 May 2023
  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 1 Apr 2023
  • Suggested by smaragdus

AstroGrep is a search utility for quickly finding information within text files. Results are displayed with sidebar options for further filtering and preferences for text result styling. Searches using keywords and regular expressions are supported with options for printing, storing recently used paths, and opening files externally with a text editor (down to the exact line number and column, if supported by the editor).

The program is not an indexing search program, meaning it checks the contents of all files each time it searches. Based on the popular grep search used in *nix.

AstroGrep does not search for strings of characters inside binary files.
This is a major limitation of the usefulness of this application

@juverax, thanks for that -- updated entry to better explain that.

Everything v1.4.1.1024

Ennovy on 26 May 2023
  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 26 May 2023
  • Suggested by Drutt

Everything is a powerful search tool that locates files and folders by file name instantly, and includes an FTP and Web server interface. It also can search files by their contents. Unlike Windows search, Everything initially displays all files and folders on your computer. You simply type in part of the desired file name to limit what files and folders are displayed instantly. The more you type, the more specific the list becomes.

Note that the instant-search capability only works on NTFS/ReFS-formatted drives and only uses file and folder names in a file index. The program can separately catalog non-NTFS/ReFS and network servers for searching on a schedule.

The update to 1.4.0.0 applies only for the x86-version - interestingly the x64-version remains at 1.3.0.0 (last update 06.12.2016!)

@zorro - Looks like the Wavosaur team updated the x64 version after you mentioned it :)

Great software! The real time effects support is what sets it apart from Audacity. I wish it was open source though...

Recent statement
--- I am developing jaBuT 32 bit only because to compile it in 64 bit too it would be cost a bunch of money to get a proper developer licence ---

jaBuT Backup is now 32 bit and 64 bit due to some licence changes.

FireRabbit on 2020-12-08 20:21

When I first found jaBuT I liked it and thought it was working, until I realized that it stops working every time you sleep/wake your computer unless you manually restart it. unfortunately I realized that after I needed to recover files I thought it was baking up.

I reported this to the developer to learn that jaBuT is made this way by design. No backup program I have ever used [besides this one] is made to stop working when you sleep your computer, and I was not expecting that behavior at all.

For me I have moved to Backup4Sure and am quite happy with it, and unlike jaBuT it has actually saved my files when I needed it to save my files.

That said I still think jaBuT is a decent program for the right tasks, though I would be very hesitant to ever trust it again. It's always hard to trust again after you've been burned, especially when you've found something that works for you.
