What's witht the .exe's when dling a file
I was downloading a debial iso to a directory in my E: drive. In the middle of it I got a popup saying that my C: drive was filled and that there wasn't room for an [somerandomlookingstring].exe there. Why is moz creating an exe for a download? -- Mark Heaely marknews(at)healeyonline(dot)com

Unless your %TEMP% dir was on your E: drive, you were downloading to C:. That's why it "filled up". Mozilla pays no mind where you want your file saved until after it has finished downloading to %TEMP%. If you want to download directly to your choice of save location, use a downloader like wget. If you don't want the overhead of moving a large download to your save location from another drive after the download is complete, use a downloader like wget, or make sure your save location is the same drive as %TEMP%. If you want to preserve timestamps of downloaded files, use a downloader like wget. If you want reliable downloads, use a downloader like wget. Browsers are poor downloading tools. Mozilla is worse than average. -- "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom...." Proverbs 9:10 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 Felix Miata *** http://members.ij.net/mrmazda/

It made my WPS unstable. :( I don't think I ever used that. It must be enabled, in the config, for that to work. I also don't use the desktop (that is really only for warp3, I think). I just keep the ToDo icon, on the desktop, and drop any URL, that I want, onto that. The only problems I ever have, is when I mess it up myself.

I had to disable it. Aside from the instability, I found it annoying, too, because it would pop up if *anything* was in the clipboard. I'd prefer that it pop up only with archive files, and then empty the clipboard when it got what it wanted. > I also don't use the desktop (that is really only for warp3, I > think). I'm on Warp 4.52 and use the desktop all the time. I usually have something (Mozilla or Polarbar) covering the ToDo icon. -- Michael DeBusk, Co-Conspirator to Make the World a Better Place Did he update http://home.earthlink.net/~debu4335/ yet?

PBL's and EXE's -- question
I have been told that it's best to keep the number of objects in a pbl down to 50 or less. I can understand the value of that, but I'm unsure of how to include more than one PBL in my project build and executable. How does this work? Second question: Is there a recommended maximum size for the executable file? I will be distributing this application to 3-5000 users, so inevitably it will be running on some low-end 486's and I want to make sure that it's not going to choke on a slow machine.
