Re: overlaid column titles with Crossover

Maybe this one will work: http://www.usenetexplorer.com/temp/ue571d32.zip The code is only engaged when using mouse wheel for search service and task manager views, for key scroll it uses windows default behavior. I removed all smart code, it was needed prevent blinking or scroll bar not updating co...

Re: overlaid column titles with Crossover

Try another version:

http://www.usenetexplorer.com/temp/ue571c32.zip

I moved the invalidate header control line to after the call to the scroll function, is it working better?

Re: overlaid column titles with Crossover

Try if this one is working properly: http://www.usenetexplorer.com/temp/ue571b32.zip I added header control invalidate in a function which is likely called for every scroll and near where the list control is invalidated (the latter is sufficient for windows) I can compile 64 bit version if it solves...

Re: overlaid column titles with Crossover

I don't remember whether the interface code changed in v5.5. Does v5.3 http://www.usenetexplorer.com/temp/ue53.zip have the same issue? It is the earliest version which supports the current search protocol. Maybe I could add redrawing the column bar, does it happen with any scrolling - arrow/page up...

Re: Search Server Down?

A router has been replaced and a server IP address changed, so it was down for a short time, but it should be running now. When you posted it was supposed to be running, it happened more than 24 hours ago. If it is still appears to be down you may also try edit menu->properties->search, reset config...

Re: kill filter for collections beginning with a quote mark

Can you email me screenshots of the filters and of the combined filter?

It looks like it worked for me.

Re: kill filter for collections beginning with a quote mark

As for this particular subject you can try the filter

subject ends with " -
(quote mark, space, dash)

and

subject begins with [

but I'm not sure it will filter out valid headers, it is unusual to use dash in the end, so maybe not.

Re: Multi-Threaded operation possible?

If you want you can run several usenet explorer instances.

Just create a UE.exe shortcut and add the database path to the shortcut "Target" edit control.

So as long as your hardware allows you can double or triple performance.

Re: Multi-Threaded operation possible?

Unrar is third party code so I cannot do much about it. Downloading article bodies is asynchronous, but there is a single thread to process save and unrar - to simplify synchronization and normalize disk load. With 40% cpu it would allow maybe 2-3 unrar processes, but making them a separate process ...

Router issue

Last few days there was an issue with one server which caused me to switch to backup configurations with limited retention and short downtimes. It happened first around August 1, then second time on September 4, then starting October 29 it got worse. It was now narrowed to corrupted router settings,...

Re: Search failed (5) Too many users

Looks like it is running ok after reboot. Update: It happened second time after 4 days, while I was monitoring the server with very similar picture. Given the timing it could be because of recently exposed Windows RDP vulnerability, which I have now patched manually. https://portal.msrc.microsoft.co...

Re: Very strange effect: Download doesn't complete 100%

Try to reduce the read/write timeouts in edit menu->properties->tasks. If the tasks still hang without increasing the retry count, it might be antivirus or another third party application which is involved on TCP level. Then also try to cancel (ESC) tasks from the task manager, it may not work as we...
