Antivirus warnings

By Brian | January 8th, 2009 |

Using Avira AntiVir free version.

I had a file that was false positive for a virus with Avira AntiVirus. I am a developer and it was a file I created and know there was no virus. I ignored the alert and allowed processing to continue. I assume this would be the same with any antivirus software.

I believe, ebooster was adding the file to cache (unconfirmed). The AntiVir then would bring up another warning ever so often (even when not accessing the file). I assume when eBoostr updated the cache in with a copy of the file and it was reading the data in some way.

I exited eBoostr the number of messages virus alerts where quite a few less 4 instead of 12 (I think). Seems eBooster creates additional warnings when copying the file to the cache and accessing the new copy on the cache.

I am considering adding my eBooster drive to be excluded from AntiVirus checking. Since everything is checked anyway before being added. Does this make sense?

I-pod

Just giving a idea. You could make it so a ipod can work with eboostr.

too sophisticated

i think you should do the program more friendly for beginners, ’cause i think there are some problems with the final user if the program is too sophisticated.

Build 484 – Cache Rebuilding a lot

By jdevulder | |

Is it normal that the cache is being rebuilt at regular intervals? I haven’t measured it exactly but it has happend 3 times now in the last 4 hours. I’m running Vista Business witha 4GB SD Card.

SDHC Class 6 lifetime

By freshmetal | |

Hi, thanks again for the great software !

Few of my friends who were using SDHC Class 6 memory card told me that the Memory card died by using eBoostr cache drive for about 2 months. The PC was Aspire One Japanese version which “Storage Expansion” is not available.

But still they love using eBoostr because of its speed.

It’s better to have 1 or 2 SDHC memory cards for substitution.

Now SDHC price is felling so much again and its now 6 to 7 dollars for 4GB Class 6 cards.

Well, its not good for the global warming though…

Building Cache request

By sirmerlin860 | |

i was watching the cache being built on my rater large slow usb drives… and a question came to mind.

if the total available ram allocated is duplicated 4 times over the available devices.. why not do 4 writes

at a time.. one to each associated drive/card/etc?

this would greatly increase the cpu and hd load but for a much faster setup of the ram.

possabilities: “standard caching” or “quadro-caching”

is this possible/already implamented?

Merging Cache Viewer and Stats Viewer.

By Colonel ONeill | |

Just throwing around an idea:

Make the Cache Viewer and Stats Viewer one function, and make it more user friendly.
Made a sample form in VB, sort of like the firewall or application rules one might find in their Anti-Virus or Firewall software…

Build 484 ” … expires in 24 days …”

By SugarHooves | January 7th, 2009 |

Hi,

Just upgraded to 484 and getting the  ” … license expires in 24 days … ” message after eBoostr starts up.  The window that first opens up displays the previous license of:

****BEGIN*LICENSE*KEY****

Check Speed option

By jdevulder | |

I have two caches defined. 512 MB System Memory and 946 MB on an SD card.

When uing the check speed option the speed is only calculatedfor the SD card and not the System memory.
