| Re: [Info] SIW 1.69 is available said by Lanik :As soon as I click on Secrets SIW crashes.  Lovely. Another app that's going to lose XP functionality whilst it becomes more 'Vista-compatible', no doubt. Not that I know that's your issue-- but the handwriting's on the wall, it seems.
I may or may not install this "update".
But thanks, Kabanos.  | |

1 edit | Hi Lanik, Can you download, please, the DEBUG version of SIW from It creates a LOG file C:\SIW_LOG.TXT Can you send me (siw@gtopala.com) that file (after the crash)? | |

1 edit | Re: [Info] SIW 1.69 is available Gabriel,
Thanks for your support, email sent. 
My guess something in TuneUP Utilities SIW doesn't like, not sure what it is I might just have to reinstall TU and then it probably will work since they TU 2007 was installed on top of 2006.
Hope that helps. -- "If it ain't broke don't fix it." | |

That's beyond silent-- this has gotta be the extra-super-double-secret debug version. 'Eyes-only'. Dick Cheney sign-off required.  | |

If it's like what happened to me one time Gabriel sent me the link for some troubleshooting. The Debug version creates a log file which the regular release version does not, unless there are some hidden switches. Hmmmmmm that might be a great option to include in the released version. Just run it with a switch for a log! | |

1 edit | FYI Lanik. I'm on WINXP SP2 with TU2006 and Secrets did not crash SIW. I do have a question for you though.
What am I to conclude if SIW's Secrets does successfully unveil a couple of passwords on my system? Albeit non critical passwords yet I wonder what I'm doing wrong if Secrets can figure them out?  -- "in flagrante delicto" | |

2 edits | What I find interesting (and I don't recall previous versions doing this), is that SIW found some email accounts long since deleted from outlook express, along with my old passwords I don't use anymore.
Wonder where the heck they are hiding? I'll have to look around the registry a bit..or maybe the closet? Under the bed?
Good thing it's a "secret" huh?  -- I had a life once.....now I have a Computer and a Modem. | |

| said by bcool :What am I to conclude if SIW's Secrets does successfully unveil a couple of passwords on my system? You can come to one of three conclusions-- SIW has clairvoyant abilities (possible, I suppose, yet unlikely), it's one helluva good guesser (I'm tossing that one out), or it's reading information stored deep down in some dark recess of your machine, like SAM. My vote goes to the latter.
Albeit non critical passwords yet I wonder what I'm doing wrong if Secrets can figure them out?  Plugging your computer in, for starters. 
Some potentially informative info (that's the best kind!) here:

2 edits | Re: [Info] SIW 1.69 is available What with dishonest employees stealing customer credit info or lost credit info and inherent weaknesses because of stored sensitive data that can be easily mined by nifty utilities - why I think your suggestion is beginning to sound reasonable. Why even plug the damn computer in? It seems sometimes, you can't win for losing... 
I think I do remember talk about hash this or hash that where secret things are stored deep down in my computer. Now how to clean it up? hmmmmm....
Thanks! -- "in flagrante delicto" | |

Just points out the importance of keeping malware off your system.  | |

| said by Moody : The build number has changed from 630 to 631, (July 4, 2007) but I have no idea as to what changes took place in the program. Changes are posted at the blog site, and in the original post of this thread. No special tool or Registry search required to see them.  Unless of course there have been now further changes not posted yet.
said by Lanik :The bug I reported earlier in this thread is fixed now and probably more.  Thanks Gabriel. And I thank both of you for that info, as well as Mr. Topala for providing this program, quickly addressing issues, and stopping by this site occasionally to check in. Thank you! 
I may even have to stop carping long enough to go ahead & install the update. 
I get a thrilling, tingly sensation when I use the internal updater, anyway! | |
