• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    VB.net Issues

    The problem is how you are placing the text into the textbox. Try commenting out the last line and see what results you get. This is the first time I've helped someone in these forums, so I'm not sure on how to approach a situation like this.

    Microsoft Expression Studio VS Adobe CS3: Pathetic

    In regards to syntax highlighting, I'm sure there is the option to add in custom highlighting; it's there in VS. I haven't played with any of the expression suite so I could be wrong. Have you played with silverlight or are you just making assumptions without trying it out? Silverlight is...

    Visual Studio 2008

    In my opinion Microsoft has added a lot of great features into VS 2008. There's the nice multi-targeting feature which allows you to compile to target either 2.0, 3.0, or 3.5 which is great if you're not ready to move to 3.5. There's a bunch of little things in 2008 that are great. There's...

    J2EE v. .NET

    The CLR was completely different from version 1.1 to 2.0, which is why there is a switch in IIS 5/6 for which version to run. Microsoft DID receive a lot of flak for this, which is why the newest version of the framework, 3.5, is just additional libraries. The CLR compiler is the same one that...

    Take Internship or Graduate Early?

    I'm currently in my last week's of college and I've had an internship for the past year and a half. One of the best parts about the internship is that the company offered me a full time position when I graduate. Having the knowledge of the company's projects (and therefore less training...

    what are the "extra features" that vista ultimate edition will have?

    I actually had a weird bug during my first install of Vista. It didn't want to connect to the internet until I put my computer on the DMZ. It could access network shares and see network computers, but it didn't want to connect to the net. After that I went back to XP for a few days. I...

    what are the "extra features" that vista ultimate edition will have?

    Being an MSDN subscriber I'm already running Vista. Right now there are only the aforementioned updates to Vista Ultimate. However, in the new "welcome screen" that pops up on startup, there's an option to check for "Vista Ultimate Features" that will be downloaded from MS when they're...

    Question with my Vista install

    Yeah, I tried that, too. I'm just going to stick with XP until a month or two after Vista is released to non-IT people. By then all these kinks should be sorted out.

    Question with my Vista install

    Yeah, Vista installed windows firewall by default. Even turning it off didn't work. The router was supplying my computer with a valid IP address, but I just couldn't access the internet until my computer was the DMZ. I read somewhere that the IPv6 protocols had to be changed, although that...

    Hey guys. This is my first question post, so don't flame me too bad :p I installed Vista last night on my machine, and all went fine (minus a few missing drivers, but that's alright). The only problem was I couldn't access the internet. I could see my network, access network shares...
