use cygwin/cygnus applications/executables without re-installing everything

A Friend asked me how to use cygwin binaries (executables and/or dlls) standalone. The procedure is very simple and actually worked for me with a lot of execs. Install cygwin (if you don't have already the files that you need) and move your executable(s) and the related cygnus dlls that are necessary. For sure you will need cygwin1.dll! (for anything) Use dependency walker (application) to check for other needed files (suggested method) or just run awk and see the errors of the missing dlls. You shouldn't need to reinstall cygnus after moving awk and the dlls in the same folder.

Manually uninstall Adobe (ex Macromedia) Flash | cannot open links in internet explorer

I've lately had a problem with adobe flash (v. 10a?) on windows and I've tried to uninstall it with the uninstaller from adobe (without success). The folder is %windir%\system32\Macromed\Flash  unregister the ocx regsvr32 /u %windir% \system32\Macromed\Flash\flashVERSION.ocx and delete the whole folder %windir%\system32\Macromed\Flash we can also (facultative) delete the data within this folder %APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player   ----------------------------- Some versions of Flash player 10 have several problems with Internet Explorer 8. I've encountered the problem that I couldn't open/click the links from any textfield .... quite strange. For the version 10i of flash I've solved by only reregistering the ocx regsvr32 %windir% \system32\Macromed\Flash\flash10i.ocx An easy thing to do ... but bothered me for more than 2 hours -.-

Sign java application - solve the mixed signed code of pjirc

How to remove the boring mixed signed code in applets like pjirc (I've done this post for this specific one). Tools needed java JDK  (just download it from the sun/oracle website). http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html I've used the same password ... it's not a good idea .... but who cares. password keystore: pjircpjirc12345 key password: pjircpjirc12345 Remember to have the jdk binaries in the PATH Go to the pjirc folder and rename the irc-unsigned.jar to irc.jar Use those lines in a batch file. Modify them as much as you want. -----batchfile.bat------ keytool -genkey -keyalg rsa -alias pjirc -dname "CN=Trueliar, OU=Somebody, O=SomeCompany, L=Somewhere, ST=Somewhere, C=IT" -storepass pjircpjirc12345 -keypass pjircpjirc12345 keytool -export -alias pjirc -file pjirc.crt -storepass pjircpjirc12345 jarsigner -storepass pjircpjirc12345 -keypass pjircpjirc12345 irc.jar pjirc jarsigner -storepass pjircpjirc12345 -keypa
