Great idea

Should save me from having to explain that on a regular basis lol...

Hi, We also use hard disk security software (DriveShield), so to change even one setting requires multiple reboots and security setting changes, etc. etc. I'm not saying it wouldn't be a nice feature to put those settings in the registry as well, I just hope that the INI file remains an option as we...

I would rather have just an option to read the INI file location from a registry entry - although I work at a small library, that would mean that every time I need to update or reconfigure PWB, I would need to disable security on 7 computers, make the registry changes locally, then reenable security...

Hi, On our XP stations, PWB and it's related files are all housed on a network share. I have the "AutoComplete" turned off in the Internet Options, and the user does not have access to the Network Neighborhood or Show Entire Network - so, "in theory," there is no way for them to ...

Scott, In a previous release INI file, in the [Overrides] section, there was an item listed as "Proxy=" _ I assumed this would turn off the proxy filter. However, in the recent release (2.05-1), the Proxy= entry is no longer there. Is there a way to use a keyword override to turn of the pr...

Hi,

There's an anser to this problem a few posts down from this one, look for the one that starts with "server busy" in the topic. There's a fix listed. Hope that helps!

Hi, I'm not sure about closing all apps, but you can use the PWBSTOP utility that should be on the download page. It's a simple executable file that closes all running instances of PWB version 2. I wrote a VB script, and put a shortcut to the script in the Shell Bar in PWB, and called it "Quit&...

The activity timer sets the maximum length of time that PWB can run. If you want people to only be on for one hour, set the activity time limit for one hour, and choose an action for PWB to take when that hour is up. The inactivity timer is just the opposite - if nobody moves the mouse or presses a ...

Although PWB does have a URL filtering capability, I don't see it as being marketed as a content filter. It filters by using a list of URL's that someone on your staff would have to constantly maintain in order to comply with CIPA regulations, I would assume. We use PWB at our relatively small publi...

Hello, I noticed that in the most recent beta version of PWB, you have removed the RestrictedSave - SaveToTitle and SaveToDrives values, and have replaced them with a RestrictedSaveApp entry. However, the TDownload program (I believe that's what it was called) is no longer listed on your download pa...

I don't think that the \[space] is a valid escape sequence, but I could be wrong. Have you tried replacing the [space] with [%20] ?

Hi, You can use the Manage IE browser helper, which will automatically close IE any time it opens. I believe this tool and information on how to install it is available from this website. We have used it at our library with good results. It doesn't use up extra resources, because it only runs when I...

See the posts about Syndetics windows - I believe Scott said it has something to do with Window timing, and even though Syndetics has said they will be changing their format, Scott is still working on a fix for the timing / focus problem.

I believe that's the way PWB works - the original (first) window is the control window. If you close that window, all PWB windows close.

Scott will correct me if I'm wrong

Scott,

Glad to hear you're still working on this one

My opinion on Syndetics in general is still up in the air, our web catalog is slow as molasses the way it is, and adding all the extra "flair" just makes it even slower.
