Re: [PEDA] Spam trawlers in this group
Hi, there seems to be a coincidence in receiving spam (with PEDA as subject !!) and posting to this group. After I sent some posts during the last fortnight, I received about half a dozen of spam mails, half of them from .au servers, the rest from elsewhere. Someone seems to collect addresses for advertising. One example, where one might argue if it's spamming or not, is the EDA Tools Cafe News I received twice since last week. I did not ask for it, nor am I interested in all the US job offers it contains, nor in the weak rest of it. So I count this under spamming also. Quote of Mr. Abd ulRahman: They (Techserv) do offer advertising to the list -- no one has purchased it, it was pretty expensive last time I checked; but such mail would come as a normal post to the list.) Hopefully they stick to their steep prices, as I would think it as really annoying if we also would receive authorized spamming in the future. Regards, Gisbert Auge N.A.T.

Re: [PEDA] Spam trawlers in this group
All I want for Christmas is: I wish someone would design a virus that affects only e-mail spam origination computers. The virus would cause these computers to melt down into a puddle of bubbling silicon and epoxy. A modified version of it using touch tones could be used to melt down the computer systems of telemarketers. But seriously, I can't tell whether or not spam occurs as a result of posting to this list. Most of the spam is weight-loss, work-at-home scams, porno offers, or the Nigerian money laundering scam. These things are targeted to the general population, not engineering groups in particular. I get this stuff every day, whether or not I post to the Protel user's list.

Re: [PEDA] Printing problems
Did you install the print previewer in 98 before upgrading? I had to deinstall and reinstall Protel 99SE from scratch because some DLL or registry setting was messed up by some addon I installed. Usually when I get weird exceptions like this I have found them to be because of an old DLL. Before going back to Protel 98 I'd uninstall everything to do with Protel, then do a fresh install of Protel99SE and service pack 6. Doing this on my Win2k machine cleaned up all the strange exceptions. I just wish it would give a closing Protel dialog box when it takes 20 seconds of doing nothing to close. Oh and I just tested print preview with the Win2k driver for a Laserjet 4M Plus with no problem on my Win2k machine.

It this is occurring then you will definitely have to reinstall Protel 99 SE. Follow the steps below, WARNING: A complete reinstall removes all customisations to menus and toolbars etc. 1. Uninstall the Service Pack/s using Add/Remove programs in Control Panel. 2. Uninstall the Protel 99SE program using Add/Remove programs in Control Panel. 3. Manually delete the Protel 99SE files from the Windows/Winnt folder. To do this use the Find files function from the START menu button.

I had to deinstall and reinstall Protel 99SE from scratch because some DLL or registry setting was messed up by some addon I installed. Usually when I get weird exceptions like this I have found them to be because of an old DLL. Before going back to Protel 98 I'd uninstall everything to do with Protel, then do a fresh install of Protel99SE and service pack 6. Doing this on my Win2k machine cleaned up all the strange exceptions. I just wish it would give a closing Protel dialog box when it takes 20 seconds of doing nothing to close. Oh and I just tested print preview with the Win2k driver for a Laserjet 4M Plus with no problem on my Win2k machine.

Schematic diagrams print out fine :o) The printer I am trying to print to is a local (ie attached to this PC) HP 4l. Someone else probably knows better, but I think the HP4 laser jet has/had problems with a great many applications (as I recall, back when it was a hot item, ~1992, many apps crashed when attempting to print to the device). You might start by trying to update the driver, and/or check Hp's site for troubleshooter info. I did a quick search for you at Protel's (um, I mean Altium) site, (http://www.protel.com) but either the KB is busted, poorly written, or simply no longer contains any entries regarding the HP4L (I am almost positive that it once did...)

Nah, doesn't compute. I got the same thing, and I dropped my subscription to PCD nearly a year ago. My guess is still that it comes from here, whether by some ibsystem employee subcribing and violating the group policy or as Mike Beavis suggested, through the archives. The interesting thing, though, is that their site doesn't include Protel as an EDA vendor... In any case, I'm generating a list of possible reply addresses for a potent deinculsion request addresses at ibsystems by PEDA members. More to come...
