That's strange. For me it was Firefox on Linux, android and Windows while Edge/Brave/Chromium worked fine.

I'm thinking this thig doesn't work on virtual machines, at least not VirtualBox. But I'm not dead in the water. When I go to the link you provide with Firefox, it will download. It's just that this time IDM won't come up. FF itself performs the download.

I use Megasync which you can download or upload to your mega account. Firefox is a hit or miss nowadays with Mega. Its either stuck in a long api call or never works.

After clicking your link on my Chromium browser, it didn't work. However, when using Firefox it downloaded perfectly. Firefox did not bring up Internet Download Manager. Go figure!

As for the Megalink program you mentioned, will it work only with your Mega account? What if I wanted to download something you uploaded that's not on my account?

Note that a new version of Trellix endpoint security is available here: https://www.nomaher.com/forum/index.php?topic=1718.msg36900#msg36900

Is this like EEK where you can run a scan on demand instead of having the program running all the time. There are all kinds of false positives when you run it constantly.

Its endpoint security for enterprise. There's something called Trellix Stinger for on-demand scanning.

As always, unpack the ISO and delete autoattended.xml to perform in-place upgrades.

How do you upload and download to mega.nz? Do you use Firefox or some other app in order to do that. Every time I try to grab something from mega.nz it's a headache.

I use chromium on both Linux and Windows 10/11. Anyway, my PC has received upgrade to 24H2. So, there will be no updates for few months until the final version in November 2025. Don't want to break anything with June 2025 ISOs.

Tonight, new videos are available for the users of the forum.


Shadow.97, Vasudev and Maher are certainly nostalgic for the 1990's. Here is how to go back in time.

Maybe some of you heard of Koko, the ape that was able to talk. Koko even held a conference about climate change. Humbert and aa1234779 certainly wished they had talked about philosophy or geopolitics with Koko. But in reality, Koko probably couldn't talk. This video explains why.

The Art Restoration that Shocked the World

In the fall of 2011, the sleepy small town of Zanesville, Ohio, experienced a nightmare while more than 50 wild animals were wandering through the city.

It is a switch-less installer. The original installer was modified: only the 64bit version is available (for windows 7/10/11 x64)

The is just a vse.exe file. Does it have to be installed? Can it be configured to work only when you want it to and not always? One problem I keep having with these anti-malware programs is that their detections are close to 100% false positives. Any app to create a serial number or patch a file is immediately labeled as malware and quarantined.

Well, it seems you are a bit nonplussed by this weird file. It has to be installed indeed. The installer is completely silent once double click on the file.
For the configuration, I already replied here: https://www.nomaher.com/forum/index.php?topic=1718.msg39173#msg39173
It's true that there are a few false positives.

There is a heatwave in France. It's not easy to endure it. And there are probably heatwaves where you are too.

I was looking at the temps in Grenoble. I wish the temps here were like those over there. The web site shows temps in the mid 30'sC until Sunday, but at night you'll be down to about 17°C - and it'll come down a bit after Sunday. Here temps in summer are 35° and higher during the day and hardly ever less than 24° at night. Since it's been raining off and on for the next few days, dew points are anywhere from 22° to 24°. I go for a walk in the morning and come back dripping in sweat. And of course, the drone of the A/C is constantly on and my electric bill (including gas) is over $300.
