Hello, I'm new to the group. I've been using The Bat! 3.0 for a few months and have been experiencing problems with file attachments on incoming emails. In the Message List area, the Size column displays the correct number of bytes. But in the preview pane the size of the attachment is much smaller, if I try to save/open the attachment it the file saved to disk matches the smaller file size and is not the complete file, so the file will not open. If I login to the webmail interface for my email I can download the file in it's entirety. So it does not appear to be a server issue. I am using IMAP as a protocol. Any ideas on how to fix this?

TB3 froze because KAV blocked some TB databases files. It was very annoying. That why I 've chosen AVG 7. Now viruses are great managed and moved to quarantine without perturbation. And for firewall I use Kerio Personal Firewall 4. It's free and work well with my system (AVG / Ad-Aware 6 / TB3). I feel well protected. :-) Maybe an illusion... -- WilWilWil :flag-france: TB 3.0.1.33 BayesIt! 0.7.3 Windows XP Service Pack 1 Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: Total Commander
Hello z5worg, I'll start by the end of your message. I appreciate your kind note of caution. But I resent Miguel's tone (and people like him) who jumps to conclusion and thinks he knows it all when he couldn't possibly have. Sorry if I offended you in some way. It was not my intention. And no, I know very well that I do not know everything. Much the contrary. But usually, not always, when I talk about something is because I think I know what I'm talking about. And believe me, many of the things I know I learnt by listening to people who know more than me. Now to your other paragraph: The WinXP in Windows Explorer is already set to Show hidden files and folders and Hide protected operating system files is also unchecked. But I still cannot open the System Volume Information folder. Have you open that folder and copied any files from that folder? If not, would you try and let me know? I am simply trying to use TC to make a full backup copy of my C: drive (a new installation of WinXP); so that if I need to reinstall a clean copy of WinXP, I can simply do a copy from this backup and it would be mostly all configured. To be able to open, or view or copy the System Volume Information you would need to change the the access permissions because, as I think I told you in my previous message, it is only accessible to the system. In particular for System Restore. On the other hand, even if you could do so, backing up the System Volume Information would serve you no purpose because if you are going to install XP again, it will create/configure a new System Volume Information for each volume (drive or partition). Anyway, if you are curious and what to see what's inside, take a look at: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;309531 or http://www.theeldergeek.com/system_volume_information_folder1.htm or search Google for more links. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Re[2]: PC-cillin and TB!
You might want to try a server based spam/virus filter. At our company we use Sentinare PostGuard www.sentinare.com so that spam/viruses are trapped on the server level, so that they don't waste time/resources downloading and scanning garbage emails. They have a easy web-based quarantine interface in case you need to rescue a message, but it's rare that you have to. They use SpamAssassian and some other filters to get really good accuracy, my account at work is 99.6% accurate. -Jason ===Original message text=== From: Leo Landa [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thursday, November 4, 2004, 3:58:12 PM Subject: PC-cillin and TB!

Hello Pat! On Thursday, November 04, 2004, 5:03 PM, you wrote: PJ I'm getting a new computer and want to get the best firewall and PJ virus protection I can, Pat, I have had no problems with F-Secure. http://www.f-secure.com/ I am using only its AV (it now offers a suite, new this year, with firewall) and I have just renewed my license, after one year's use. The interface is friendly and it has the advantage of combining 3 separate virus-scanning engines. XP SP2 recognizes it. There's no plug-in for TB!, but that's not necessary. F-Secure recognizes an e-mail infection as it is being downloaded. It recognizes an infected file as soon as it's clicked on. For my firewall I'm using the free Sygate. Just upgraded to the latest one. I like it for its simple user interface, also. But WilWilWil has a good set-up, too, with the free anti-virus program AVG--which *does* have a plug-in for TB!--and Kerio as firewall. I used AVG for about six months. Left it for Kaspersky (KAV), because Kaspersky updated more often. Kaspersky's interface I found quite complicated. And it no longer supports The Bat! with a plug-in. Last November I moved to F-Secure. It can be set to check automatically for updates as often as you like. Virus Definitions are usually updated daily, but sometimes more often. The question of choosing an AV and a firewall to go with TB! comes up rather often on tbudl. You might try a search on the Gmane archives for more opinions. -- Best regards, Mary The Bat! 3.0.2.4 Rush on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

TheBat! Visual Interface
When Ritlabs announced v3.0 they said: Amongst all the improvements the most visually outstanding is the new look user interface. The opportunity to replace the default interface glyphs with those of your own preference has been expanded: you can now use transparent images and new formats of graphic files. You will soon be able to download alternative glyph sets from our website Now that I've upgraded, can anyone tell me how to *easily* do this? -- Michael Rudnick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 3.0.1.33 on Windows XP 5.1 (2600) Service Pack 2 Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Glyphs file folder
A friend has installed TB! v2.01.3 on both a desktop and a notebook. However, the buttons (toolbars) look different on these computers. I think a glyphs.bmp file is to blame, but I cannot find it in TB! instalation folder. Any suggestion?
