UNQ1  Same thing happens to me. So I quit the "logging service" and THEN started the DB cleaning. It WORKED w/o crashing, BUT it had not finished cleaning going on 2+ hrs... why is it taking soooo long to clean/compact a 10MB file? This part of the program really has to be refined.

UNQ1  I like Safari, but it FAILS miserable under stress. You'll find under low-memory conditions(LOTS of apps open), multiple tabs open with javascript & flash running WILD.. it will plain and simple shutdown!(spinning beach-ball of DEATH). Firefox on the other hand comes out a WARRIOR! Just keeps chugging along. I don't want to hear "just add memory"... A truly GREAT browser "just works" under ANY OS conditions.

CORPSECORPS  Not ANY OS conditions.

When i'm playing flash games online, i typically get more stutters, and other snags in Firefox than Safari even if i have only 1 window with 1 tab.

I've actually had very few problems with Safari. I use Firefox as my primary browser because it's got THE critical add-on Adblock Plus.

This works quite well for ad blocking in Safari.

CORPSECORPS  Safari Adblocker isn't bad, but it's pretty primitive in comparison and has no "Element Hiding Helper" equivalent. Plus input managers can be problematic.

FYREFLYE  Add Glimmerblocker to Safari and back it up by using AdSubtract.css as your style sheet and you have ad blocking as good as Firefox's Adblock. But you can't disable it for individual sites.

FYREFLYE  I should have said "you can't disable *AdSubtract.css* for individual sites" (except on OmniWeb). You can disable Glimmerblocker on a site by site basis and it works almost as well as Adblock.

UNQ1  PPC version yields this error in Tiger(latest)...

Link (dyld) error:

Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib

Referenced from: /Users/xxxx/Desktop/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC

Reason: Incompatible library version: VLC requires version 7.0.0 or later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 5.0.0

NEVER saw this error before... uhh did we forget to UPDATE "libiconv.2.dylib" for the ppc version???

VIKRAM SHARMA  Leopard is PPC also, so the VLC guys have posted the PPC link of the app. Most probably Leopard is he last PPC version of Mac OS, 10.6 onwards it's going to be Intel only. As for not supporting 10.4 and below, I guess it's upto the VLC guys should they choose to support the PPC platform or not, one can only do so much for free.

****.

UNQ1  Wonderful App..does what it says..BUT! does NOT allow my computer to go into sleep mode. This is due to the "logging mechanism"(narrowed it down to this). So for those of us who are energy conscious and preventing un-necessary wear and tear on un-attended computers, this is un-acceptable! Once fixed...this deserves the FULL 5 stars.

UNQ1  Since the developer hasn't responded to a bug I sent him, maybe he will see this. "Auto-reload n secs." does not stick across re-launches and does not work while the program is running if chosen in preferences. If this is fixed, the program would be complete.

JM.MARINO  Yes, you are right. SplitBrowser has a bug with this feature. But for the moment, I do not have enough time to resolve it.

This feature is not completely bugged, but part of the url is not updated if the link is brokeen. When the HTML server will answer, the page automatically will be updated.

UNQ1  THIS version has completely brought my system(latest Tiger version) to a CRAWL(spinning beachballs everywhere). Don't know what system components they hooked into.. but it's a DISASTER! Intego claims VB to be "un-obtrusive"... not with this version.

UNQ1  I love using this app with my palm 700p. They work very well together and the ease of use BEATS! VNC hands down. This version somehow seems broken. When I start up Astro and login with my palm....everything is fine, BUT after I logout with my palm and the desktop app sits idle foe awhile, it seems to lose connectivity with the open port and reports that it's NOT forwarded which is untrue because I've used a port checker and it says it IS open. Very strange, but I hope the developer(s) know of a fix. Previous versions worked just fine.

UNQ1  SERIOUS! "memory leak" noticed by the cleanapp daemon in the Activity Monitor app. Don't know if this is due to unusually slowwww journaling of recently installed apps. Nevertheless have to discontinue trying this out until this fixed.

UNQ1  To the contrary..the "window position" is NOT saved/remembered AFTER executing the options(mostly checked) in the "automation" panel and restarting. Originally I placed the window positioned at the top and after..it reverts back to the bottom of the screen. I just thought I'd bring this to the attention of the developer...GREAT program though!

TITANIUM1  It's OK, now... I have found!! ;-)

The position was not correctly saved when the panel remained open at restart. Then, before save the position, the panel is closed and now, the position is saved in all situation. ;-))

Thanks unq1 !!

UNQ1  Anybody else have a problem with the execution of the rescheduling of the maintenance scripts? I set my coumpter to wake in the wee hours of the morning at LEAST 1hr before the execute time but they NEVER do.

I'm not sure if this is a launchd issue or what....insight??

UNO

UNQ1  As a "former" iridium user let's just say I think UNO is better in overall look and feel...EXCEPT...there's one glaring feature that iridium seemed to have accomplish and that UNO is still missing..the UNI of the "menu-bar". If you're going to unify the system, then WHY leave the "aqua/glossy" menu-bar? It would be nice if we had an option to UNO that too so that EVERYTHING matched.

Just a suggestion....
