XAD Unpacks ZIP Archives For VirusChecker To Test
For quite some time, VirusChecker has been unable to unpack and virustest any ZIP archives. I have now managed to unpack .zip archives quite nicely with Dirks XAD shareware package. Please remember to support all our excellent Amiga programmers, even if their particular program has gone from shareware to freeware. You may not realize what a God-send they are, until something goes wrong. Thanks!

These directions will always be available on the VirusChecker links page.
  • a) get the XAD package (remember this is shareware)
  • b) install xadmaster.library and accompaning files
  • c) place the c: directory files in c:
    there will be a file called 'c:xadunfile'
  • d) start VirusChecker-II and go to the prefs
  • e) add/edit for ZIP:
    Name: ZIP
    Offset: 0
    Data: PK
    Command: c:xadunfile "%s" "%s"
  • f) save your settings, and you will be finished
(ps)

NetInfo Version 2.10 released
Today, the new version of the network information tool NetInfo was released. Popular helping programs are integrated into NetInfo such as "Tracerout", "Ping", "WhoIs", and "Finger".

Features:
  • "quick traceroute": Sends a series of packet in quick succession to get a route overview very fast, then does accurate timings for the individual hops
  • "ping": Sends a sequence of ICMP ECHO packets to a host to measure network latency and stability.
  • graphical display of hop min/last/max timings for TRACE
  • graphical display of ping times for PING
  • integrated smart WHOIS function: double-click on a IP, Host or Network column to automatically receive WHOIS information for the given object. NetInfo determines the WHOIS host to query.
  • automatically retrieves WHOIS network information for hosts
  • automatically scans destination host for Web (HTTP) and FTP server versions
  • history for all queried hosts
  • integrated FINGER client
  • integrated "classical" WHOIS client with on-disk cache

Aminet: New Interface
There is a new WWW-Interface available on the Aminet site US-Site.

The Interface has a white background. On the left-hand side there's a narrow blue command panel and on the right-hand side the chosen information is presented. On the homepage these are the uploads of the last seven days.

In the command panel you'll find the search option, links to information about Aminet as well as links to each single category. After having clicked on a particular category, its content will be shown on the righ-hand side and at the top the subcategories will appear, by which means a quick search is possible.

MP3: mp3Play V2.01
On 15 December 2001 Carl Svensson published version 2.01 of his minimalistic GUI "mp3Play" for the MP3-Player "MPEGA".

The GUI has been made with ARexx and the rexxreqtools.library. It calls up "MPEGA" in such a way that the player needs only 25 per cent of the CPU time on a 50 Mhz 68060 CPU, according to DashBoard.

Compared to version 2.0 a standard C= installer script and the ID3 tag viewer has been added.

Individual Computers: New xsurfadsl.device and appp.device
A new archive with the PPPoE-drivers for our networking card X-Surf can be found in the support-area of our website. The CPU-load has been lowered, and some parts of the appp.device have been prepared for further debugging. The performance is already a bit more stable on some setups, so we can release this last version before Christmas for a public test. (ps)
