Alright I am writing this as to warn those of you who are thinking of making a site with 000webhost.com, if you really want a good host use comphost.info, the reason why I say this is because my account was canceled by them, I did not post any illegal software or anything, I only had one site up and running which was a family website that I had spent a lot of time and effort into, and they canceled it. I already had a lot of family members who registered and posted on that site.

Indestructible corrupt files - what gives?...

Submitted by Preacher on July 2, 2008 - 8:30pm

Lookin' for some help here.
I run Win XP SP2, and get occasional files on my HDD which are listed by some app associated w/ them as "corrupt - unable to read".

So, I try to delete them and it's a no-go.
And yet, they are perfectly happy to let me rename them and/or move them to the Recycle bin (or often move 'em to another folder on the disk - I have a special folder I created called "biteme" - where I usually end up moving them), where they stubbornly resist any and all efforts to destroy them.

@PatrickPatience re: hosting

First I want to say thanks for hosting, of course. It's a great service to many people here on PApps.

I wanted to ask if you know what's going on with the download statistics. I receive them randomly at the moment, but even when I do get an email it contains no data. It's probably been 2 months since I've received an update that worked.

If you can fix it great, but I just want to know what's up with it. Thanks again!

Text Editor with AutoHotkey Syntax Highlight on Linux

Submitted by José Pedro Arvela on June 28, 2008 - 3:44pm

I usually work with AutoHotkey, sometimes when I am on Windows. But often I need to work with it on Linux (when I finally am able to install Linux on the PC Blum ). WINE covered the launching of the scripts, but I can't find a decent text editor with syntax highlighting for AutoHotkey on Linux.

  • Notepad ++ on WINE does not have font smoothing that is soo needed on LCD screens (actually WINE's fault)
  • gedit/kwrite do not have AutoHotkey syntax highlight

Hey guys,

Just to let you guys know I am going to be gone for summer, I thought I was going to be working at the Call Center for the duration of the summer but I just got word from a Camp I used to work for that they want me back, and best of all I'll still be getting the same amount of pay per week as I did in the Call Center I worked at Smile (Now I can work on that tan I was trying to get back) I'll be here for at least 2 weeks for sure but after that 2 weeks I am out of here

Math or Maths

Submitted by Jacob Mastel on June 25, 2008 - 11:36pm

Okay we had a small debate in #portableapps so now I'm curious. Do you say Maths or Math when referring to an Arithmetic class. If you say something different feel free to state that too. Also say where you're from if you don't mind please.

I say Math and I'm from Oregon, United States of America (West Coast) how about you?
