   You did an awesome job dj/matt. :P
   Its been 2 years I'm always going to call you djlizard. :)

   The commercials on that station are rediculous though. The actual show probably wasn't even an hour long. :(

   Great job Mike. Next time include the tampa number HAH! :P congrats also on the c++ rewrite. When will you find the time?

   He said my full name repeatedly throughout the show and yet you call me Matt? I'm Michael/Mike!

   AHAHAHAHAH!
   I guess I didn't listen as closely as I thought. :(
   Or it may have been the fact that I listened at 3AM. :P

   Regardless you did a good job. Sucks that you couldn't have gotten more intereting callers though. :(

   Really disappointed I couldn't listen to this live because of the time difference here in the UK, but I'm downloading the shows now to listen at a more civilised time.

   Thanks again for Dial-a-fix Michael.

   Kind regards,

   Dennis

   Hi Mike,

   FYI. Keith Schiehl here, President of rentageek.com

   I was the guest on Computer America for two hours on April 23rd. It was on that show I introduced Carey to Dail-A-Fix as a must-have app in his arsenal. He downloaded the link while we wwere on-air and tried it out and was thrilled. Carey said on-air "I gotta find this guy and get him on the show".

   I am pleased to see that he brought you on, and I will download and listen to the archived shows using your links.

   Sharing the love and appreciation for DialAFix.

   Finally got the whole program downloaded – thought you were only on the second hour, so I downloaded that first, then learned my mistake and got the rest. Anyway, good show – I hope you don't catch that guy's cold, though.

   Also hope I can find out about it sooner if they have you on again, I didn't see the story on Lunarsoft until it was already over. Of course, listening to it later has one advantage – you can skip over the commercials; rridgely's right about them, even if he can't spell. lol

   Looking forward to the new version, amazed that you're doing a total rewrite. I trust the results will be worth the effort, sounds like it's gonna be great.

   Catch ya later.

   Thanks for the support!

   You probably heard me coughing, too; I was still recovering from a flu from two weeks prior to the show (chest congestion was still draining).

   Regarding Dial-a-fix++: Yeah, it's going to be infinite work, but it should also be infinitely better than the Delphi version.

    Congrats on the recognition you are receiving as of late. I have been using your program to fix a multitude of problems for the past year or so in corporate, in-shop, and residential environments. I'm amazed at the number of techs I've met who have never heard of or used this program. It seems so many 'techs' just ignorantly reinstall XP and charge a customer several hours of labor, rather than simply reregistering a few DLL's! And of course, Dial-a-Fix makes this much easier to do.

    It's good to have a programmer who is also a tech! LOL on the Acer and Verizon Security software comments! So true!

    Nice job on DAF and getting the radio spot. You are getting the recognition you deserve. It is nice to have a free utility to do some of that leg work for me. That talk show host kind of sounded like an elitist jerk though. Good luck on the future versions of Dial A Fix. I would be excited to see a services restoration section, that replaces all windows services back to defaults. A co-worker and I are currently working on a program to do that.

12. # DjLizard on May 22nd, 2007 5:46 PM

    I hope you won't be offended when you see that the next version of Dial-a-fix has that. I actually began working on the service defaults part a long time ago, but I never merged it into the Dial-a-fix code tree. It's just another thing on my long list of to-dos…
