in the uploads/alpine.
i guess some wanker is trying to cause grief to users .better contact flar and see if we can trace is ip.

i did check the other folders briefly and they did come up clean... and since those 2 were deleted i dont think flar will be able to trace them.. the only real way to get away from this crap is to have a closed ftp with everyone having thier own user/pass... anyway, this isnt the place for this discussion

Pack with password and email [email protected] -will add in the base.
Probably someone want to do the attack on users xda-developers - a first virus came up for forum - was a mass sending out. Now this is loaded on ftp.

if faria didnt save it then i will pack it up when i get home and mail it.. i did scan it with mcafee and it came up clean.. which is why i saved it, but i know that not all virus's are detectable, etc..

Probably this new viruses unknown. I am an attempt to start the program from forum and this intercepted the system process. This tried zombi my computer and use for email sending out.
Xda-developers very popular place -someone specially want to use their own program for bad action.
My offer - no anonymous access on loading in ftp - if you load in ftp we must know who this has loaded. No loading with anonymous and other proxy. If person not to have a real address he can address to moderator or administrator with request to load file.

Dyndns client for Pocket PC ?

I search and found something called PocketDyndns, however i never able to reach the site, does anyone know other programs can do ???
Since I want to config my firewall will only allow me to telnet in, however GPRS is not a fix IP, so I hope i set my firewall to recognize the xxx.dyndnd.org all i need is to update my IP to the DNS record.
Ever heard of the hidden, hard-to-find, brand-new and useless search machine Google? Here you can click on the second link and voila!
i know this thread is old, but anyone got any better leads i swear i been up and down and thru that list but whatever was the 2nd link isn't available anymore.
Nor does there seem to be much else.
It would be very convenient for the ftp, http, inbound via GPRS people if a ActiveSync/"Internet" aware PocketPC/Windows Mobile Dynamic IP app was available.
Any ideas?
Yup, it seems it has been completely removed from http://www.networkdweebs.com/stuff/dyndns/ . The parent directory, which is visible ( http://www.networkdweebs.com/stuff/ ) doesn't contain it any more.
Therefore, mail the dev at [email protected] and ask them how you can get the app. Please also post a message in here too if you get any positive answer.
I just find that site...

Weird Teksoft thread

When I open
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281266
I get a request for a teksoft name and password. I get this behavior with either firefox or IE. I can't get out of this request without crashing the browser. Can an administrator delete the offending code?
Teksoft doesn't seem to make WM5 software, which is weirder still.
I get the prompt for username and password aswell, i click cancel 4 times repeatedly for it to stop coming up.
Yes
Yes, me too, now that you mention it. I guess I wasn't diligent enough; sometimes one says OK with no password and it works.
this is because of the pictures which are hosted in a protected folder in Teksoft server, i mean the screenshots at this post
@prestonmcafee, fone_fanatic, xplode Sorry guys for the inconvenience. The problem has been solved second day of being posted. You can view the screenshots now with no problem. By mistake i've entered links from the portected folder and not the open one. I appologiase for this.

Group SMS Solution - My Very Own

Hi Everbody,
I am Shailesh Ashar and this is the first time I am getting my hands dirty with Windows Mobile development.
So here is a little app that I developed : Group SMS Solution.
As the name suggest it is basically a program to send smses to a group of people at the same time.
Foll. are the features:
1. Category Wise Contact Pickup
2. Individual Contact Pickup made easy
3. works with WM5 and WM6.
4. Seems to be moderately paced as it is written using managed code but does the job well.
5. It is free.
PREREQUISITES:
.NET Compact framework 2
download here :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...6b-356b-4a2c-857c-e62f50ae9a55&displaylang=en
DISCLAIMER:
This program is written using managed code so it technically cannot harm your windows mobile device but anyways do not blame me for anything.
[size=+1]
To Download go to http://shaileshashar.110mb.com/groupsms.php
Feel free to link to the download page but please do not link directly to the cab files. I want some traffic on my website.
[/size]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Fixed a small bug while loading categories , as pointed out by SayMobile
Hi shailesh, great work..let me test and come back
Feedback
Pls do give me Feedback, suggestions etc as this is my First app & it will really Keep me ticking.
Very well done shailesh now it will help me send group message.
Thanks

Hey I am not a depressed soul although the quote is very thought provoking. Checkout the Superman logo as my avatar.
thnaks first
it is working with my imate jasjam although i installed net framework 2
the message appear:ERROR
"this application requires a newer version of Microsoft NET Compact Framework than the version installed on the device."!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:confused:
Nice app - well done. Works just fine on my artemis, cheers
Hi Shailesh,
This is certainly a very nice and extremely useful app for WM devices.
I've tested it briefly on my WM5 Herald and it works great. I do have a few minor bug reports and feature suggestions for your next version:
1. When contacts belong to multiple custom groups, it lists the same group twice with a space before the group name. So if some contacts are in the group called Ping and others are in the group called Pong and yet others are in both groups, it will list "Ping", "Pong" and " Ping" and " Pong"
2. Could you possibly add a context menu for the text editor where you do Cut/Copy/Paste rather than the Paste from Clipboard button?
3. In the final screen, if you press Back, it takes you right back to the first text entry screen rather than just one screen back.
Will test and give you any further inputs soon.
Thank you for the excellent app that you've given to the community for free!

Hey thanks for pointing out the bug SayMobile,
#1. I have fixed the bug as pointed out
#2. I thought the framework would automatically provide the Cut/Copy/Paste feature but it did not, anyways the button is doing the needful.
#3. It have purposely kept it that way
Please download the new cab from the first page.

Please restart your device after installing NET Compact Framework 2.
If it still does not work then re-install GroupSMS.

I officially have to 'LOL' at McAfee and users of their software (no offence). The 'iwindowssoftware' (aka Vito software) site is completely safe and so are their downloads.

Interesting that it makes you laugh. You'll have to beg my pardon, but I'd rather put my trust in a big company that has been devoted to protect against viruses and malware for years than in two forum members that tell me - by making posts containing a capitalized "lol" - above website is safe without any proof.
Having said that, I know mcafee is not air-tight, no "anti"-virus program is. It's proven to me that it's much better than nothing, as it has succesfully protected my computer (and those on the network I'm on) against many small threats over an extended period of time.
---
Back on topic, I'd love to see a good sms replacement application, the windows outlook is so damn crappy. Even TF3D is just a shell, which still uses poutlook. I've already replaced my calendar (although that is again, a shell, but fully functional), wish I could do the same for sms and e-mail.
I don't think that'll show up though, poutlook is completely embedded in most ROMS (and I'm guessing fairly hard to take out). So who'd go through the trouble of creating it all over again, mozilla maybe?
Sorry, but do not trust McAfee. Or you will be lost...perhaps you already are. It often prduces false alarms.
Try G-Data, AntiVir Premium or F-Secure.
Here is a Total Virus scan of the SMS-Chat exe.

Looks clean to me.

what are these startups?

Hey all.
New owner of the X1 and so far loving the phone.
I've currently got the following on startup on my X1 and I was wondering if someone could be kind enough to explain what it loads and if it's ok to delete:
AutoShortcut
PanelDefault
Panelmanager
poutlook
cheers
I would hazard a guess that poutlook is Pocket Outlook, and PanelDefault / Panelmanager run the Panels interface for Xperia phones.
I don't mean to be nasty or rude, but if you didn't know what Panelmanager is then that suggests that you should perhaps spend some time learning more about your device before you start deleting stuff.
For now I suggest you leave things be and just enjoy playing with it.

You could create a backup of your settings and try it out for yourself, if you do not want to heed other people's warnings.
1) Panel Manager would not load (so no panel when u restart the phone).
For the other files you have the description here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410139&page=16
Also you should (have) post(ed) in a section that's designed just for you guys...

Thanks for the bad attitude reply. If you don't have anything nice to say, ignore post.
I believe I posted in the right section, if i didn't I apologies but let the admins worry about that.
Hey, come on...play fair. There's no bad attitude here, stormlv is trying to be helpful, as am I.
Another option you have is to RENAME the files with a different extension so they are no longer recognised and the OS won't know what to do with them so they won't run.
That way you can discover what the behaviour of the device is, and if it doesn't please you then you just rename them back again.
if you are not using outlook then you could try deleting that and for panel manager i am not sure because sometime before i have had panel manager crash but the panel interface still works so maybe it restarts its self when you press the panel button - as Mr Anderson said renaming the files would be a good way to test which ones you do and dont want
one should avoid deleting anything beyond the Windows folder unless you know what you are doing.
any files to delete would be stored in ur device documents folder, like pics, vids, and other stuff that i call demo files
