West SAAB Story posted:So, my bluetooth OBDII adapter from Amazon with a REAL ELM 327 (a pretty drat convincing silkscreen on the chip) worked perfectly, but the software CD was literally cracked. I contacted the seller, and let them know the CD was broken, and I was using it with Torque, but wouldn't mind the supporting software. You don't want to put random Chinese manufacturer CDs into your computer anyway. We've definitely found nasty poo poo on driver CDs in the past, just sticking it in a Linux box and snooping around.

So my problem is mainly a bit of bad advice that compounded. Now I owe the government £2900 and have about 5k in other debts hanging over me. As its under 15k I may apply for a debt relief order. You pay £90 and don't pay any debt off for a year. If your into he same financial situation after a year all the debt is written of. Kinda like bankruptcy lite. I am bipolar and before I knew I was not the best with money. Still not great but mrs deals with it all for me  hopefully in 6 years I will have a fresh slate. Which at 35 won't be great but my credit is so bad I can't use it anyway so what's the loss? Oh yeah and UK here. Why do you pay £700 to go bang? It's kicking you in the teeth surely?

loving Windows Server 2012. Theres a bug that causes LanManServer service to hard lock, killing all SMB connections which requires a hard restart of the server as it won't shutdown until LanManServer Service responds....and it won't respond. I hope they fixed it in 2012 R2, because its that or we move our Domain File Server onto a Linux box like I wanted to do originally.

I'm going to chastise you for not looking at the basics because I didn't read the actual problem"  No it isn't you pedantic little rear end, because all other network services (iSCSI, SMTP, TCP/IP) remain responsive and other than SMB connectivity is not inhibited.

We've definitely found nasty poo poo on driver CDs in the past, just sticking it in a Linux box and snooping around. The best Chinese thing I've ever bought was this: http://www.amazon.com/HIGH-POWER-RA...asin=B007M7RP6Q A "Signal King" 802.11n usb 2.0 adapter. Seriously, the thing is loving amazing, probably because it was built in china with 0 regulations or fucks in mind. It also came with a tiny cd with all sorts of wep/wpa cracking apps to boot from. Aaaaaand, they work actually surprisingly amazing as well. I used them to test my own wifi router and found that no matter what I switched it to wep/wpa/wpa2 the little bastard does all sorts of cracking. Also the range on the thing is crazy. I can be anywhere on the 20 acres and have 5 bars. Also it's completely plug and play for win 7. There are no downsides to this thing, why can't any major manufacturers build things like this?
