  • DNS Benchmark v2 Release 5 with Consultant License
    Guest:
    If you own any earlier release of our DNS Benchmark you may immediately download its release #5 replacement. Running an earlier release will detect the new release and help you upgrade.

    Although this release is cosmetic, appearance matters and affects ease of use. The biggest change, as seen in the image above, is that the DNS Benchmark now has a traditional Windows application menu to more fully expose its many features. This release is also "Consultant License Aware" and GRC will now issue a Consultant version when owners have previously purchased four "Personal Use" licenses. If you have previously purchased four DNSB licenses, or if you wish to upgrade your "Personal Use" license to Consultant, GRC's purchase process will direct you through that process.

  • BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware

    To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.

    GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.

    The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.

    You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.

    (You may permanently close this reminder with the 'X' in the upper right.)

Hi folks -

I wonder if anyone else has suffered this. Maybe because it's Autumn (or Fall, for you lot over the pond) but all the leaves have fallen off my treestyle tabs, leaving them lying on the ground. Since computer science trees are only two dimensional, at least it's left them lying in a straight line.

Putting all the leaves back on the tree is going to be a pain in the backside.

I've sometimes lost all my treestyle tabs after I've opened a second Firefox window, for example for a teleconference session. It happens if then on shutting down, the main window gets closed before the second one. But after a heart-stopping moment when it first happened, I found I could recover them by selecting the main window under History - Closed Windows.

This time, the second window was was Bitwarden, which I'd popped out a few hours earlier and forgotten. This time to my horror, my usual fix flattened all my treestyle tabs.

I had an idea there was a way of saving your tabs (including their tree structure), but if so I've forgotten it.

Not sure how to recover that now, but going forward you should install the Tab Session Manager addon. It will create a record of the tabs used that will allow a complete session to be restored or just a single tab.
