but it also dumps all the content of the item into the folder as well instead of containing it to the zip file.


this confuses me, as to what you mean

I went into a folder with some pngs...right clicked and created a new ODZip...it created it then asked me which of the pngs I wanted to add to the zip...I picked one...then dragged the others in. So then in my png folder I had my png and an odzip with my pngs.

I then moved my pngs into a folder...clicked on the folder and made an odzip, then my folder contained my pngs and an odzip containing my folder with pngs inside]]>http://webgizmos.joeuser.com/article/106599http://webgizmos.joeuser.com/article/106599Sun, 06 Jul 2008 16:42:10 -04002008-07-06T20:42:10Bichur on ObjectZip ProblemChris THhttp://webgizmos.joeuser.com/article/105424

Perhaps a dumb question, but have you tried uninstalling via device manager and rebooting to allow XP to reload the drivers?

Failing that, you might see if uninstalling/reinstalling the Roxio program will work, if you have either a disc or a restore partition that allows reinstallation of the prepackaged software.

That original error is sometimes caused by a drive headed for retirement. XP stopping right at the end also points to a bad drive. I assume you're using different blank CDs each time, have you by chance changed CD brand since the last time it worked?

Try something; put a new blank in and then right click on a folder and click 'Send To:' and click 'CD Drive'. (For simplicity, just make a folder and put a dummy text file in it.)

Would you buy a substandard auotmobile, house, cheesburger


Let's be honest, this is like comparing apples to rasins .. Automobiles do have bugs, not sure if you heard about the problems encountered with the newest BMW's but they apparently have computer controlled engines and there was a glitch that caused the engines to just shut off sometimes while the driver was just driving along. As far as hospitals, there are mistakes made in hospitals EVERY DAY, and people die based on those mistakes every day. Oh, and cheeseburgers will send people to the hospital, eventually..

Now, as far as software goes it is a known fact that the larger a software project the more bugs it is going to have. The goal of course is to not have any *show stoppers* or bugs that sre easily re-produced during activities that it is assumed will be commonly used. If it were an easy thing to write perfect software, everyone would be doing it but software is written by humans and humans make mistakes. Even when those mistakes are caught it is common for a fix to one bug to create another that may or may not be found. In a project the size of something like IE7 or Firefox for that matter it is safe to assume there are going to be bugs. I do think it was short sighted of MS to state that they aren't even attempting to release a flawless product. While it's really just an honest statement I can see the various hard-core anti-IE crowds cheering about MS admitting that IE will be flawed and that the world should switch to browser x because it IS absolutely flawless. Which of course is complete garbage.]]>http://webgizmos.joeuser.com/article/99645http://webgizmos.joeuser.com/article/99645Sun, 06 Jul 2008 16:42:10 -04002008-07-06T20:42:10Kevin_C on IE7 Bugs AboundJafohttp://webgizmos.joeuser.com/article/99645I'm using IE7 on my wife's machine....had one of its addon thingies crash already...and typing in this window is about as screwy an experience as ever I have had...not for the faint-hearted....

Of course but why have people become comfy with that fact? Would you buy a substandard auotmobile, house, cheesburger. If a company was selling cars with huge safety problems, would people not fight back? If cheesburgers were sending everyone to the hospital, would something not be done about it?

The release is meant to give developers and IT professionals a chance to test-drive the software and give feedback to Microsoft so that the final version, expected later this year, and upcoming test releases, will have no, or at least fewer, issues.

not sure exactly what a snow eel is...we have many eels here...we have one called a spotted moray eel, which some people call a snow flake eel Link

, the friendliest eels we have are the Sharptail Eels, which look like snakes, but aren't, and have no teeth, so you can pick them up in your hands Link

, my favorites, though, are the Spotted Snake Eels, that are buried in the sand until i dig them about Link
