Spent a week fighting with viruses a couple weeks back, having to deal with a couple that the AVG couldn't see by hand. Given that, I am not greatly confident of my system right now. A couple of programs have flagged errors about being unable to open some files which look like 8.3 SFNs for LFNs. ... I think I may have terminated a necessary service that looks after long names. and the windows explorer has an unrecognised signature - it should verify as microsofts signature. off topic, but it might be time for a windows reinstall: Bit of advice everyone - use gpedit to disable autoplay; or at least disable autorun. Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates / Turn off Autoplay All those viruses came in by autorun.inf on usb sticks. - stepdaughters notebook and local internet cafes are unsafe because of this. With regards to BNU217BR2.ZIP, It shows up fine in listings and all, but unzip32 cannot see it to open it, until I rename it down to 8.3 chars. That looks awfully like the same underlying problem I'm seeing with trying to link - libstdcxx is a 9 char base name. I don't suppose anybody can tell me the service I killed off that's causing this?
