I'm calling a subroutine form the WndProc function in a windows app. WndProc was called from the message processing loop when a button was pushed. The subroutine takes a fair amount of time to run so it sends periodic messages using SendMessage(WM_USER). These messages should cause screen updates. Unfortunately, the updates are all h...

Whenever I add an entry to the Hosts file on Windows, it takes a long time for the change to take place? I have tested using Firefox and IE and it seems to take around 5 minutes on both of them before the new IP/Domain entry on Hosts is recognised. Is there anything I can do to overcome this? Perhaps "refreshing" the cache in some way? ...
Sorry for such a long question. It's just I've spent several days trying to solve my problem, and I'm exhausted. I'm trying to use WinINet in an asynchronous mode. And I must say... this is simply insane. I really can't understand this. It does so many things, but unfortunately its asynchronous API is so much poorly designed that it jus...

I am attempting to retrieve the log-in accounts that are actually visible when Windows first loads (XP, Vista and 7). I am able to enumerate all accounts (thanks to this code: freevbcode.com), however this particular function enumerates all system user accounts (Administrator, Guest, HomeGroupUser$, LogMeInRemoteUser, etc.) whether they...
Hi, I have looked after, without luck, a free C/C++ API for Windows that can be used in a project I am about to start. There are libraries for Java and C# but the fact is there is no one for C/C++. I need an API that can be integrated in a vs project and we cannot use libraries that run in servers ( as CGI scripts or whatever ). Does any...
I've been reading about the requirement that if OpenSSL is used in a multi-threaded application, you have to register a thread identification function (and also a mutex creation function) with OpenSSL. On Linux, according to the example provided by OpenSSL, a thread is normally identified by registering a function like this: static uns...
Is there a ways to check inside a browser (e.g. javascript) if the user is running inside a Remote Desktop session? If the user is running their browser inside a Remote Desktop (i.e. Terminal Services), i want to disable animations on the web-site. If this were a native application, as opposed to a web-site, i could perform this che...
I'm currently developing a web application whose primary user function is uploading and downloading of files. The files will be stored on the hard disk (no cloud storage yet). Taking into consideration the possibilities of gigabytes of data and a large number of files, do I need to organize files into sub folders to account for the fet...
Hi, I'm writing a windows driver (of course in c and I'm in kernel mode) and I'd like to open a tcp socket from the outside specifying the sequence number the first SYN packet should have. I tried modifying the packet filtering it with Windows Filtering Platform, but of course it doesn't work because the stack think that the correct num...
Hi, I have an executable on my disk-on-key in dir\program\prog.exe I'd like to have a shortcut to the executable on the DoK's root directory, that is, prog.lnk would refer to dir\program\prog.exe. However, it seems that prog.lnk can't have a relative target. This is a problem when the DoK will have different drive letters assigned to ...

Hello, I would like to know whether it is possible to call a CreateFile Function in Visual C++ to create a file with attribute FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DEVICE (0x00000040 hex, 64 decimal). According to the MSDN API, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DEVICE is reserved and therefore I cannot use it, but I know there must be some way to create a file with such attrib...
