Crashed?

Post by Toge »

KGS just crashed. The error dialog said something about unsigned code. Now it's prompting me to block unsafe components. Here's the log:

(I was reviewing game at the moment of this happening)

Is that message coming from the OS or from an antivirus program? (I doubt that Windows 98 has any kind of security system that would be causing it...)

It was a message from Java. So no-one else got it?

That's tweaked Windows XP btw :D

You tweaked XP to look like Win 98???

No such message here on a Mac...

In my office we are using win7 and one of my collegues even tweaked his win7 back to the old win98 looks... there are some people out there I'll enver understand ;)

...The only reason to tweak an XP back to 98 maybe be due to performancereasons!

Regarding the kgs-issue:
Does the error occur again or was it a onetimer?

FWIW, that's how it looks on Win 2003 Server as well.

- Bingo! It's a lot less strain on resources to reduce those bells and whistles away. Windows boots faster, programs execute faster and desktop and other explorer windows are opened quicker.

- I haven't been able to reproduce it. It happened when I was reviewing a game that was recently played. Players can switch to review mode simultaneously, so maybe there was a conflict of orders?

I had that same crash two days ago. But it went away after a few hours.
As a workaround I switched between the normal and the NFA kgs client.
Sanity is for the weak.
