Talking of Eagles [as we were in an earlier thread] reminded me of this
presentation filler that I knocked up. I'm sure some of you will find it
of interest. It is 23 Mb and an exe file.



Sorry for the question. How can i handle this?

In Outlook Express you need to highlight all the parts and then right click
on them and select 'Combine and Decode' same as for multipart pictures.

It works! Thanks.

Great show.

Please don't use that form any more. It's fine if you use MS products,
but I don't (and won't), and therefore am unable to run any .exe files.

This slideshow was assembled using a program called Proshow Gold. It is
primarily designed for commercial use and does not allow you to copy the
photos. To achieve this, and to work on any computer, it has to be an
executable program (exe). I understand the concern by Microsoft et al about
this type of file from an unknown source but I knew that many regulars here
would trust it.

You will need to speak to whoever manages your browser about how to download
it successfully.. Like OE it must have a way of allowing you to control
what you download. I can see the need to protect folks who download
anything and everything from themselves but there are times when you need to
take control away from your computer - it should be working for you!

But, if you are still unsure, then you should never download exe files from
usenet.

I don't as they are proprietary file types of a style owned by Microsoft.
It is a pity that I can't view your photos any more, but if you insist on
using such file types I'll forego the pleasure. I think you have been
seduced to embrace a half-witted application to present your stunning
photographs, rather than relying upon an industry standard, non-
proprietary file type to share them with a group of aviation enthusiasts.
Well so be it.
To repeat, I don't use MS, and won't! Consider the rest of your fans.

I think you're over(re)acting. I don't like Gates et al either but sometimes
for the greater good one has to set aside aversion.
Eventually I managed to download the file and it works beautifully. Other
browsers should be able to combine multi-part files too I would think.
If you remain stubborn, that's up to you.

To Rusty: may you snap away for a long time to come.

Regards,

Herman

Hello

If Rusty allows it and users want it i can put this file into my ftp server.
With an UL of 5 Mb/s its no problem for me.

And its really worth seeing...

I can quite happily (if that is a word you would use in the same phrase
as M$) download .exe files using my mail reader, but I can not run
(execute) .exe files because my OS is not of the M$ variety (I use a
Linux variant called Kubuntu). It is nothing to do with the abilities of
my browser. I take issue with your "and to work on any computer, it has
to be an executable program (exe)". That is just not so.

Sorry David, you are of course correct. When talking of 'computers' I was
thinking only of pc compatibles. I do realise that you can not run an exe
file on your linux OS. Apples are the same but often come with pc emulators
to overcome this problem - could you not download one from somewhere? In
any event you have not missed anything as all of these picture [without the
soundtrack] were posted here on 23/2/09 as 'Friday Eagles' and are still
available on my newsserver.
