No, been overwriting the exe directly from zip into the wcgdaws folder whenever you've released a new version. cheers --//-- |

hmmmmmm. It must be something stupid on my part. I just don't remember monkeying with any paths when I added the totals functionality.

The zip file seems damaged... failed with a read error at end. Direct zip open from web address also bombs.

Mine does not work either. I get the error message that windows had to close the program and would I like to send a report to MS.

Hi pirogue,
----------------------------------------I just saw the new messages in this thread and haven't tried the new version yet. Should I go ahead and install what's there now, or wait until you update this weekend? Kate ![]() |

SekeRob, nanoprobe, kate:
----------------------------------------Here's the test that I posted: http://www.wcgdaws.com/releases/WCGDAWS-1.2a.zip This fixes all of the problems I know about. Please give it a try and let me know if it fixes the problems you have. |

piroque,
----------------------------------------1. Serious matter: The download fails [my previous post above] because my Alwil AV scanner is not liking something about the zip file or how/where it's been presented so refuses to let the download finish. Had to temp disable, download to sandbox area, then scan. It says you've got a win32:Flooder-HD[Tr] trojan/virus in the minigzip_d.exe file and that we're obviously not so happy about. 2. The WCGDAWS.exe itself is not contaminated. Program now loads correctly with complete history showing. Like the new total feature and the striped listing of tasks. Update works fine, BUT, the decimal is still off showing the credits claimed / granted by factor 10. My locale is comma as decimal, point as thousand sign. cheers --//-- edit: I've rescanned the old archives and the 1.1b c and d also contain the virus in same minigzip_d.exe. Got no older versions in archive. Never used that, and hopefully just a false positive. Is it the program used to zip your zip? [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Sep 17, 2011 7:27:58 AM] |

4 out of 44 Virus checkers found something in the zipfile, nothing in the wcgdaws.exe
The four (false?) positives: Antivirus Version Last Update Result |

Never used that, and hopefully just a false positive. Is it the program used to zip your zip? minigzip_d.exe is included in the download from zlib.net. The zlib125-dll.zip file is the "official" zlib release and was downloaded from http://zlib.net. I got it from the 4th US (zlib.net) link in this section of that web site: The current release is publicly available here: I would hope that you're getting a false positive. |
