Checking VB6 Binaries for "Retain in Memory" and "Unattended Execution"
Recently I needed to inspect a bunch of Visual Basic 6 DLLs (binary) that I [gulp] didn't have the source for. I wanted to see if they were marked in Project Properties when they were compiled as "Retain in Memory" and "Unattended Execution" (Note KBs Q264957 and Q241896)

At any rate, a friend pointed me at this COMPLETELY UNSUPPORTED TOOL that you can run from the command-line and it will tell you if your VB6 Binaries are marked appropriately for use in COM+.

Keeping Track of Domain Names

KeithBa. KeithBa.com. Keith Ballinger who has dropped off the weblog radar for sometime now seems to have lost his domain [kilic.net] Keith told me last week that he's moving to www.keithba.net although it doesn't appear to be up yet. [Simon Fell]

In reading about Keith losing his Domain Name (I should gone to the PADNUG meeting and asked him about it) it made me want to take some inventory of my domain names.  In the process, I found an one I'd forgotten about - http://www.computerzen.com.  It was just laying fallow, so I pointed it to this weblog with a Response.Redirect just for giggles.

Outlook News Aggregator.
Good news! Version 0.1 of the Outlook News Aggregator is now available for download.  It requires Outlook 2002 (aka Outlook XP).

This is a FANTASTIC Concept.  I like my applications like I like my women - stylish, elegant, and sitting in the System Tray next to the clock.
