Adding rows to another table

When you add a row from a datatable to another with

table(0).rows.add(theRow)

you will get the error
This row already belongs to another table

Instead of the table.add(theRow) command, you can use the table.importrow(therow) command

This will preserve the rowstate, so if the row was unchanged in the first datatable,
it will be unchanged in the new table.

this can be usefull for ecample after a select on a datatable

Own your very own 128 bit integer for free!

If your a digg user (or slashdot or ... ), you certainly will remember last week's fuzz about a certain 128bit number the movie industry claimed to own
(if not, you can find information here)

Exact details about how the process works and, to claim your own integer (get them while they're free ;-) )
you can find here

Anyway here is mine, all mine :)

Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 Beta 1

Kaspersky has released a new beta version of their antivirus & internet security suite.

I have just updated the virusscanner on my Vista x64 machine and my XP SP2 machine,
and it is working great!

New things are  (this list is for the KIS suite):
what's new from v6:
1. Application GUI has been enhanced.
2. New heuristic analyzer detecting unknown threats has been added.
3. An opportunity for quick application setup with default settings has been added.
4. A new protection component (Parental control) has been added for supervision of user access to Internet resources.
5. Privacy control (Anti-Spy) has been supplemented with a module protecting confidential data and guarding against unauthorized access and transfer of such data.
6. Security wizard has been added for quick correction of problems in the application settings and operation.
7. Delivery of news from Kaspersky Lab via a new component (News Agent) has been implemented.
8. Proactive defense has been enhanced with a mechanism for detection of the newest keyloggers.
9. Protection against new types of leaktests has been added.
10. Extended search for the new generation rootkits has been added.
11. Firewall kernel has been improved and optimized for performance.

You can find the information to the beta FTP server in this forum thread :

Be aware that this is an early beta and may contain bugs !

Vista slowing you down?

vista file actions (delete, copy, move, ... ) are very slow (calculating time remaining)

Not anymore!

When I reinstalled vista it had made a windows.old folder on my c: drive,
and when I was cleaning it out it took ages to delete a folder, 
then I found the solution ! 

HotFix 931770 (normally intended for network copying) fixed my local worries also,
it's blazing fast now !

Install at your own risk, it is not officially released,
but I didn't have any negative side effects, and I didn't read about somebody else having any. ..
