Find text in binary files - UnicodeThere is Peek. (That's the first link google returned, search for peek11.zip for more links). It's an old, freeware tool that works as a shell extension. Adds the 'Peek' submenu on the right click context menu of explorer and has 3 choices: Binary, Stardard, Unicode. It will search the file you right clicked for strings and display the results with notepad. I use it all the time.

Game - Clear the bombs in 100 seconds.Just passed it. Level 3 is unbeatable. It's like level 1 but there's a huge dynamite :mad: on the table and if *any* ball hits it, you lose. Final score: 631.

Browser Adding maybe?Same thing happens to me. I find it very strange, as you said. Now, I use FireFox.

It was bound to happen :)I totally agree. 'Jr.' sounds as stupid as 'Version 2.0' to me.

GIS infoThere's a free library with source code for ESRI shape files. I've used it and it works. http://gdal.velocet.ca/projects/shapelib/shapelib.html. There are lots of GIS data file formats. I suggest you learn a few things about their features before you start working.

how do you do special effects on your name?50 chars max? What a coincidence... That's the default maximum size for text fields in MS Access ;P

CodeProject banned siteColin, IMHO, when you're looking for beta testers among programmers, you should describe your product in 2-3 lines, like what it is supposed to do and how. Saying "Speed up your internet connection with VMTU" is not enough, it just looks like I plain web ad. ;)

Evolution"i give up. believe what you want, that's the beauty of america." Yeah, believe what you want. We're just going to present it to you they way we like it.

EvolutionThis is along the lines of the "Q: What are the things that make up Atoms made up of? A: Quarks etc. Q: But what are Quarks etc. made of? A: Errr sub-quarks etc. Q: But what are...." I used to wonder about that a lot back in school, when they started teaching us chemistry. I had asked the teacher several times, but she would never give me a direct anwer. That stupid bi*** just couldn't say "I don't know" :mad:

Any budding journalists?They used to play it here (GR) a couple of years ago, at about 2am. I can still remember the theme song... Wasn't much but a lot better than what they play now... Telemarketing:((

Keyboard and Game!Most games have a "main loop", in conjuction with some timer code to make it run at a constant rate. You can also make a game behaving like a standard application - I mean make it event driven. Of course, you can combine these two... Here is some pseudocode for the 1st and 2nd type: Main Loop
do
{
if (is_key_down(LEFT_ARROW_KEY))
player.MoveLeft();
if (is_key_down(RIGHT_ARROW_KEY))
player.MoveRight();draw_background();
draw_sprites();
draw_info();timer_sync_code();
}while(!is_key_down(ESCAPE));
Event Driven Here, the main loop is the standard message dispatcher
MyApp::OnTimer()
{
draw_background();
draw_sprites();
draw_info();
}MyApp::OnKeyPressed(int key)
{
switch(key)
{
case LEFT_ARROW_KEY:
player.MoveLeft();
break;
case RIGHT_ARROW_KEY:
player.MoveRight();
break;
etc, etc, etc
}
}The reason you have this problem is because windows sends WM_CHAR and WM_KEYDOWN messages using the keyboard delay and repeat rate. If it wasn't like that, it would be impossible to typeeeeeeeeeeeeee;)
- One way would be to use DirectInput (part of DirectX). I haven't used it, but I'm sure it won't be hard.
- If you're using the game loop method, you could replace the pseudo-is_key_down functions with GetKeyState() (or GetAsyncKeyState()). These functions take the virtual key you're interested in as parameter and return the status of that key. If I remember correctly, you should "and" the return value with 0x8000 to get the pressed/unpressed state.
- If you're using the OnTimer() and OnKey() method, you can remove the OnKey() function and use what I wrote above in (2), inside OnTimer().

Spyware and other unwanted net accessCould it be that you have ZoneAlarm's auto-check-for-updates enabled? Don't think so but who knows... :)
