    Hi, I usually reads a lot of documents specifying up time on applications but this was a new on for me. In an ongoing project they have specified that the application, when finished, should have at least 99.95% down time. Makes me question why they are doing the project... ;)

    Could it be Task application? just synchronizing stuff for 44 secs every day?

    if(this.signature != "") { MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature); } else { MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found"); }

        Oh, that project already made. they called it Vista...

        I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

              This requirement is common in financial industry, service web sites, etc. But you don't usually agree on software but on service (SLA). 99.95% availability means you can be down 1.5 days per year. That's a lot of hours. Imagine Facebook doing that ( or Apollo 11 :~ ). If your company took the assignment it means they are either pretty sure of their capabilities or ... :suss:
