Breaking news: Internet Mode horrible, non-functional

Maybe if DB refused to read a file until/unless the readonly flag was set?

Second one seems to be the case. Does db check on .dbo files? I could give a different extension and change that at the end.
ps: server now offline
Numsgil:
A different extension would probably work.

Some ideas:

I think we need another feature that moves the files from Peters (inbound, outbound) folders to internet modes (in, out) folders (set by DB in the settings, user choice)
This way:
A.) It should be as good as changing the file extension (which is brilliant idea nonetheless)
B.) People who use Internet mode by actually clicking the Internet mode button will be happy.
2.)
I can tell vb6 to ignore a dbo file that is very large, that should prevent weird organisms.
Does a file get deleted server side after it is transferred? I do not want his kind of files sticking around to prevent transferring them more the one time.
3.)
I think we need to setup a testing schedule. I am in US eastern time. Also, I would love to see the source code for this thing. Both server side, and client side. Maybe I can learn something.

Sorry, currently not configured to work :/
I am going to go ahead and mod my local IM code. Done.
Peter, please use the following exe when debugging with db2 from now on (if you choose to do so)
Are we cool?
