Tray RC Options + Protection Password

10 posts in this topic

i noticed that even if protection password is set when u right click the tray icon u can still enable / disable speed limits , see 'about' , etc.I dont want somebody do remove/enable my speed limit nor to see my ratio ( in 'about' ) or see which my default DL dir is.

OFFTOPIC : after i restarted my PC my posting problem is gone.

and somebody can delete the password from DCPlusPlus.xml and then he will be able to open ApexDC, am I right? :)))

very few users know that.the fact that the pass can be removed doesnt mean that we should leave other 'holes' (for me they r holes)

ever heard of a handly little program called explorer.exe the one that wants to see your default dir can simply locate it with it, or if he can't he can locate your dcplusplus.xml and look it up there and then use explorer to locate it :)

I dont want my cousin to limit my UL speed

What explorer.exe - never heard of it. I even havent heard of My computer :) (afcource that i know what explrer.exe iz ).So if my dir is C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\Drivers\etc\Nvidia\Setup\other

How will he find it ? with search ( i have disabled look into system's folders' /or something like that/ and 'dont search hidden folders' (and since he is a noob he doesnt even know that such stuff even exists) or he'll manually check every single dir in my PC?

And as i said few users even know what DC is and very but very few know how to f*ck with the files in my DC client installatiion dir.(like dcplusplus.xml)

And in PCs theres nothing secure.theres always a way someone to mess up with your PC

And one tip - if your too lazy just make the right click work as left click (at the tray) if there's pass.Once u entered the pass the right click will function correctly

He is not lazy! :) He is almost the only coder for the Win version (as far as I know), and he has a right to some private life apart from school and PCs. If a feature is well defined and argumented, it is usually implemented if possible (read: if not TOO much work). :) You could have explained that you want "noob" protection in your very first post. Since Crise is a programmer, he automatically thinks and gives counterpoints.

* I am not saying that as Crise's advocate, I'm saying that as another Bulgarian, who thinks that suspecting someone (especially a developper of a free program) in laziness is quite unpolite.

** @ifmn - Sorry, I meant no offence, just structural criticism. If you disagree, correct me please. If you like, do it on PM, I already have made a mountain out of a molehill. :)
