EyeTV 3.2 (Mac OS X)
What use is the included tvtv subscription if it doesn't work?
And once more the tvtv guide has no data to display even though it works fine on the web. Yuk! [alert admin]

jBidWatcher 2.1pre4 (Mac OS X)
Why does it try to connect to the authors website?
I have monitoring software installed which tells me that it tries to contact the authors website - I would like to be asked and informed before that happens, especially as I enter my eBay password in the program. Not happy. [alert admin]

Auction Hunter 1.2.6 (Mac OS X)
After a hiatus I tried Auction Hunter again. Maybe it's eBay changing their programming interface all the time but out of 35 auctions I added to my watch list only 8 show up in Auction Hunter after synchronizing twice- and their current bids are wrong. It's a nice program if it works - however it needs much more maintenance than it is currently getting ... [alert admin]

Apple iPhone 3.1 (Mac OS X)
that the ability to delete tracks from playlists is gone. I listen to a lot of podcasts, and when I have listened to them I immediately delete them from the playlist ... well, I used to. Please add the ability again or give me an option to downgrade to the previous OS :-( [alert admin]

32- or 64-bit Kernel Startup Mode Selector 1.3.3 (Mac OS X)
First off I wrote a little program. Nothing special but useful. Have done it before (Transform, Safari 4 Modifier) and put it out as donationware. Not that I got many. So I think I might as well give 50% of the donations to my mothers charity. Might even result in a rise in donations. Win-win either way. Works indeed - except that some people donate a LOT (1x $250, 1x $100, 6x $50) and it just doesn't feel right to keep 50% of that. So I decide to give everything to the relief project. I have a website which should answer all questions about the program, and even has my home address and landline phone number. The relief project has my mother's address and landline phone number. So we are easily traced. The address of the banks and the acoount details are on there. So people can contact me, my mother, the bank if they have any doubts about the project. I put my name and reputation behind it. And I'm getting a bit sick of people who do not read the information provided, who do not do any background checks, but think it is ok to insinuate wrongdoing on my part. And to the ones who complain about me asking for donations - I wonder how many of you actually have donated. I have a feeling I know the answer.

32- or 64-bit Kernel Startup Mode Selector 1.3.3 (Mac OS X)
@quaoar You could have contacted me. On my website you find my home address and landline number. You could have found out that I'm well known (by actual name, not some anonymous alias) in the REALbasic community. You could have done a LOT to simply substantiate or disprove your "warning" - instead you chose neither and rather rely on a dubious website and go around besmirching others (not just this page but others as well). That is extremely shoddy. [alert admin]

32- or 64-bit Kernel Startup Mode Selector 1.2.3 (Mac OS X)
I want to add a third icon for Macs capable of running in 64bit mode but not on Apple's official list. If you have such a Mac then please send me the relevant info from the system profiler (model identifier and 64bit kernel are the important ones). A great little program to make screenshots from a window or a selected portion of the screen is SnapNDrag which is freeware see http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19919 [alert admin]

32- or 64-bit Kernel Startup Mode Selector 1.2 (Mac OS X)
Thanks to some nice feedback I've identified a problem with permissions when trying to change the mode. The fix will be up shortly (is with my testers at the moment) [alert admin]

32- or 64-bit Kernel Startup Mode Selector 1.1 (Mac OS X)
To date 10,954 people visited my website (combined total for the English and German website). 12 people donated a total of $206: 2x $50 1x $30 7x $10 1x $5 1x $1 Originally I wrote that 50% of donations would go to the relief project - however I don’t think the two big donors intended to give me $25, and would feel bad about accepting it. So I’ve decided to give all the money to the relief project instead. PayPal takes a few percent which I will cover out of my own pocket so that everyone can rest assured that their full donation will reach the kids. Thank you to all donors! [alert admin]

It means KD was not Unicode saavy - so the bug was in KD, not in Apple's system

As far as I can tell WOT works by analyzing (if one can call it that) the number of links to a webpage (taking into account how many webpages link to the ones which link to your webpage). So you can already bump up your rating by putting ads on your page (which I do not), and basically any private site will be marked as suspicious. Not something I would call reliable.

The program is NOT messing with the kernel (which you would know if you had bothered to read the info on the website) but changes the boot settings. Bad muff!

The main point of the app is to - show the state of your current Macs 64-bit readiness - and most importantly: collect some money for kids much worse off than you Changing the kernel boot mode is a minor thing in comparison, and you focusing on it like this does neither justice to the app nor help the kids (on the contrary) So I'm not terribly impressed by your comment as the people could have read the info…

NOT the responsibility of dropbox. DropBox is brilliant to keep some data synchronised between computers or to transfer large files to somebody else (I just transferred a 700 MB file to my father in law in NZ), it is NOT a backup service.

13" MacBook Pro 64-bit Kernel lacking
P.S. About "exiting with some code": are you sure you use the latest version? There was a problem with permission on some machines up till version 1.2 which had been fixed in later versions.
