Spaz The Great Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 I just got windows 7 and using Mozilla. Norton says the site has to viruses: Threats found: 2 Here is a complete list: Threat Name: Trojan.Vundo.B File name: /apps/Symantec/shasta/analysis/cache/cache_22/1107274317_MTAInstall05.exe Signature (MD5): 2909dbbee2a6cc36650e101a38272122 Location: http://files.gtainside.com/downloads/ftp/1...TAInstall05.exe Threat Name: Trojan.Vundo.B File name: /apps/Symantec/shasta/analysis/cache/cache_513/MTAInstall05.exe Signature (MD5): 2909dbbee2a6cc36650e101a38272122 Location: http://www.thegtaplace.com/downloads/mta/MTAInstall05.exe It may be some trainers. Um.... It clearly says MTA..... And yeah, I think AVG screamed at me one day saying some MTA file was a virus. Whatever..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Windows 7 is pretty nice, it would be better if I could get my resolution higher, but yeah. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate10 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Quick question. Is this going to be compatible with Photoshop CS4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Yes it should since 7 uses Vista drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustADummy Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 SV: Installation took an hour? Fuck that's a long time. I thought you had pretty good specs too. Only took me half an hour or so, which for an OS is pretty decent. Well, I actually tried Windows 7 in my shitty computer, not my Quad. My Quad will stick with Vista, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I'm using Fireworks CS4, which works fine. No reason why the rest shouldn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I've deleted the beta from my hard drive for now. Just can't be bothered to try it properly. I'll just wait til the second beta or maybe even the RC's before I try it again. Assuming they do the same sort of releases as they did for vista.

It's full of bugs, so I rolled back to XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Erm... I deleted the beta from my laptop a few days ago but now I want to merge back the unallocated space to my C: drive. I'm on Vista btw. I tried PartitionMagic but that's not compatible with Vista so can anyone suggest any good 3rd-party apps for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Tried beta build 7000 myself, which runs fine on my rig, although the taskbar takes some getting used to. It would've been better if M$ allowed Windows 7 users to toggle between the new and old taskbars... You can see my screenie at the Desktop topic...

I'm on Vista btw. I tried PartitionMagic but that's not compatible with Vista so can anyone suggest any good 3rd-party apps for this? You can't use Window's drive manager? Start > (Right Click) Computer > Manage > Disk Management Wait for it to load then right click on your Vista partition and choose "Expand" or whatever and it should add the space back. Works for me anyway but I haven't tried it with Windows 7, not sure how that could affect it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 A quick thought: I have to admit, the system's fine, but they still goofed up in some aspects, such as file associations - for example, a program took over the association for GIFs, but you want to roll it back. You can roll it back to the default application, but they made it in a way that you can't change the icon for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 It is still in beta stages, so expect it to be very buggy. That will most likely be fixed before they release it properly. Thanks Rem, that fixed my problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I've got 4 beta keys. Used up one, but haven't actually used the OS yet. Just emulated it. Still waiting for WD to release a 7200rpm version of their 2TB disk. As soon as they do, I'll buy it and install Windows 7 on my other disk.

chris82 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 The latest known circulating build is 7048. Something interesting I found is that starting with this build, Microsoft is going to allow you to completely remove Internet Explorer from the operating system. Source Discuss.

Source Discuss. cool. i remember on xp i got some virus which kept making ie popups, the only way i could fix it (aside from reformat) was to delete IE...had to use something called XPLite. but its good that they are making it optional to install it / able to uninstall it.

GTA Don Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I've been waiting for this for years. Oh Microsoft, you finally listened to the consumer for once! Yeah, you can already torrent build 7048 but I'd wait for RC1 to come out this April or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not Microsoft's fault if your computer is an outdated piece of shit, you'll just have to keep using your outdated piece of shit operating system.

I like 7, my friend has it, and I borrowed his Laptop for a few days, but Vista, to me, doesn't seem like a great OS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not Microsoft's fault if your computer is an outdated piece of shit, you'll just have to keep using your outdated piece of shit operating system. I must admit, I just installed 7((finally, but only build 7000)), and it runs just fine on my PC. The initial startup of my computer is still the same, but once I'm in the actual OS environment, it isn't too bad. It seems a bit like Vista, only "prettier", and they fixed that shut down button that I fucking hated. Why make the button that has the infamous "POWER" logo on it mean sleep!?!?!? Anyways.... I'd also like to say that XP is a fine OS. I'm currently in XP because I have no internet with W7, because I'm having difficulties with my wireless card. Apparently, Linksys are total douche-bags...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
