RFC 959 is the RFC for File Transfer Protocol. Read it.

This is for MSN Messenger. I believe that was made fairly clear in the instructions that ask you to check the box FOR MSN MESSENGER!
MSN Chat is port 6667. Internet Relay Chat's port. You need an MSN Chat emulating server first. And that violates the DMCA because reverse-engineering their controls to figure out the proper strings to send to the client can infringe on their copyright.

I brought this up last year (probably not here). Vista's minmum requirements far exceed the typical GAMING machine. My computer would barely support Vista if I chose to install it.
This horsepower should be going to.. you guessed it.. GAMES. If Half Life 2 already runs like ass on your hardware, what's it going to run like once you make Windows use as much resources as Half Life 2? Well? It won' t run. GeForce 7800GTXes for everyone!
And the encrypted monitors thing... I'm considering writing my elected officials about that. That's bullshit. If I want to watch a movie I bought, I should be able to watch it on whatever damn monitor I want to. With no quality loss. Sure, you can't rip it now... but if I want to watch a HD movie, I want to watch an HD movie in HD on my current HD monitor without upgrading to a new HD monitor which would cost me an assload more money that I already spent on the present HD monitor! It's a way for Microsoft to force you into picking "their" brand of monitor (be it NEC, Samsung, Sony, etc.)
fsck that.

uh.. be logical here. English-speaking people read left-to-right. Putting the nicklist on the left would make the text harder to read.
that said, the current ignitionLite prototype sucks, so I can't exactly brag about it (yet). We'll see though.

Dude. HTTP/1.1 is 7 or more years old. Possibly he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about? The last browser to support HTTP/1.0 was, IIRC, Netscape 2.0. If his proxy server doesn't allow HTTP/1.1, a good percentage of websites won't work (any of them which run more than one site on the same IP, for example).
If he has a proxy server, he'll have to connect to the proxy server, issue the right CONNECT command (I think it's CONNECT destination:port), then send the GET/POST command. Here's what I mean:
CONNECT 1.2.3.4:80
GET /whatever.aspx?bg=evil
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.66; Vincula)
That should work. Read the HTTP/1.1 specs for more info.

Yeah. Uh. IRCXpro isn't true IRCX (ignitionServer isn't either, but it's fairly close.. working on it, I swear). But the draft still applies for most things (modes, for example).
-
Yeah, I know (I noticed from some older posts), but I figured that an official "hey, someone might help you here, but you'll get developer support at the homepage" message might deter people from wasting your time and resources

Please, if you have a question about ignitionServer, ask it on our site if you want a response from someone on our team. I try to check TG every once in a while, but it could be weeks or months before I respond to you if you post here. So, if you do post here, please also post on our site.
I posted this because someone IMed me and asked me why there's no ignitionServer help here... I think that he/she could have been yanking my chain, but still. Make things simple, will ya?

Intel sucks anyways. I'd really love to see people getting AMD processors from companies like Dell. Because AMD processors are better for the most part. I mean, a P4HT may be able to do some operations faster than an Athlon XP, but a person getting a P4HT would probably get an Athlon64 X2, which clearly stomps the P4HT.
So, I hope they win. AMD needs more customers than just gamers.

IRC is text-based. No, you cannot embed a web-browser into IRC. Much like you cannot put photos in IRC. This would be a client thing. And really, it'd be a lot less hassle to just have a Firefox window on the top of the screen with the chrome turned off (the menus and junk) doing what you want and the mIRC window doing the IRC. Or, you could embed nHTMLn inside mIRC, but I don't think you can do it on the same tab as the channel.

blue ray disks can hyold up to 50 GB's - beat that iPod
Know how long they take to burn though? I'd rather have a 60GB iPod Photo with 150MB/sec transfer than pay $30 for a single blu-ray DVD and wait 48 hours to burn on to it (on most DVD writers, it already takes about 12-16 hours to fill up a dual layered disc..). And let's not forget the DVD writer itself is probably more expensive than the iPod Photo is.

While MSN Chat is open, Microsoft makes money. Closing MSN Chat is not a "financially smart" move. It's not closing any time soon. They mainly started charging to get rid of the spam bots that they couldn't control. Like, why would a spammer pay Microsoft to spam? That'd be stupid.
Messenger is MSN's most used product. Killing it would be stupid. Snopes explains.

mIRC can't display arabic text because it's not UTF-8 (it only supports the local codepage, so to be able to translate it, you'd have to be using an Arabic version of Windows, which will corrupt the script part of Vincula). So not possible.

Well this has really annoyed me
# Verify they're on ChatsUSA (really, not that important,
# but could prevent possible "hidden messages" on other networks,
# which may or may not be a breach of security [i.e. if you're a
# sysop, it probably would be bad if two skiddies were fighting
# in a hidden CUSA font code thing and you didn't know it])
# Also increases script efficiency by 0.0000059%. -Zg
Not important taking it no sysops use it
The qwhisper thing there was nothing wrong with that
and lastly i said i would fix this when i got back but no someon has to do ti first
the first script i write for xchat while learning perl and someone goes and changes it for me
CHEERS
Haggis, the intention is if you're a sysop on another network, or a chanop/chanowner on another network. Because the bug will still be there if you're a chanop/sysop/chanowner on CUSA (there's really no way around it...). It supresses parsing unless you're on CUSA so users on other networks can't hide messages from you.
And anyways, I fixed it in my version (including the annoying "if you say CUSA, it'll try and parse it" bug), and figured I'd help everyone else by posting my changes. Sheesh. You know just about as much Perl as I do, so don't get mad about it

And here's my new-and-improved version:

Ah, so they are wrong.
2GB = 2,147,483,648 bytes
2GB = 2,097,152 kilobytes
2GB = 2,048 megabytes
(worked out in case anyone doesn't know binary/byte computation)
2052 is still really, really close. I'm not complaining.
-
Nope, not yet. Working on it though (haven't gotten around to opening up nautilus...).
-
Yay!
Don't forget #!/usr/bin/perl at the top, just in case your distro sucks and can't tell that's Perl.

anyone needing that kind of storage for emails should use pop3 accounts imo. At least now Google have provided its users with a much simpler way to transfer CD copies over the internet tongue.gif
Gmail does have POP3
.And my Gmail went up to 2052 MB, which is 2GB. So yes, it's applied.
The "Cool Thing" about Gmail is the way it does everything totally differently from every other email provider. And the fact that the ads don't suck. They're the only ads that I ever think about clicking (and sometimes I do).

my suggested idea will work will it not Ziggy ??
not with ignitionServices (yet). But it would work on most other services if any of them worked on Windows and the Windows build was configured for standard IRCD and not Unreal....
* AI sets mode: +NOocekbBKCDRWHPs* Now talking in #test
* AI sets mode: -o AI
* AI sets mode: +q AI
* AI sets mode: +q AI
* AI sets mode: -q AI
* AI: you're not channel operator
thats the re q im talking about
You can't re-q yourself as a normal user. Protected opers should be able to set whatever level is set in ircx.conf (Q/O/V/NORM) on themselves at any time, and that's what the bug is. It is fixed in the latest CVS version (CVS = concurrent versions system, where we keep the latest sourcecode).
As for you seeing my sourcecode, it's open source. I don't really care who modifies ignitionServer or releases forks of it so long as it complies with the GNU GPL (if you have not read this, you should not touch the source until you do read the license)
And morph3us, the negative comments are usually coming from two or three parties:
- IRCXpro fans (IRCXpro is also written in Visual Basic 6.0, but it uses forms, and unless their "members only" update fixed something, sucks a lot of resources)
- People who don't like me personally. Usually people who are mad that I dropped MSN support and rewrote the server to not use forms.
- People who have used ignitionServer 0.1.2/iS-X9Chat -- 0.1.2 sucked. And the server X9Chat used from December 2003 to March 2004 (roughly) is a bastardized version of a prerelease of 0.1.3 (which was actually released as 0.2.1) and by nature sucked. X9Chat's newest server (up until they closed E9N when Michio gave up) was based on parts of pureIRCd and ignitionServer 0.3.3, so it's a major improvement, but still sucked, because ignitionServer is based on pureIRCd, except we fixed most of their bugs/problems and rewrote most of their code. Michio didn't get time to totally rewrite the code we rewrote (which is why he should have just taken iS and made his changes and done it in a GPL-compatible way)... but I digress.
Most of the people talking trash about iS have an agenda. But also keep in mind it's in Beta (working on making it release canidate -- 0.3.8 and 0.3.9 should be the last betas after I release 0.3.7 soon), and I can't work on it until I fix VMware (apparently the version I have is incompatible with Linux 2.6.11, so I have to upgrade to 5.0-rc2... but that requires downloading a 50MB file on dialup).
Also, in the future, if you have support questions on ignitionServer, you will get a much faster response if you ask in our forum. If you think you've found a bug, report it on our bug tracker (I'm going to add a link at the bottom of the home page for it). If it's invalid, I can mark it invalid. Every bit helps, even if it is wrong.

Oh. Try HydraIRC, it's better than anyone can throw together in VB in the timeframe you're proposing.
-
actually, this is fixed in CVS, but not released. I'll work harder on 0.3.7 then...

ok i made myself a Net admin opened a chan de q d my self then tried to re q my semf i get an Not Channel Operator etc
bug 1044082, fixed in latest version.
If the problem still persists, make sure you have at least "NP" in your O: line (NP - netadmin, highprot).
Microsoft Internet Explorer :S

Vincula's not the problem. You're on XP SP2 and it's limiting local machine access. I'd tell you what to change in IE's settings but that'd require me to start IE... it can be turned off. Try changing the "Intranet" security level to medium or medium-low.
