Hi, I'd like to report some pros and cons of the 1.05c version
-old adress in About should be fix to the sourceforge one...
+dialup works fine!!! Should really be fixed in the 1.13 release...
- or + don't stay in tray, good if you look and close it but since it's not a RAMeater I kinda got used to have it in the tray.
-doesn't see the reset date, which works in 1.1x versions, so a good reason to fix dialup in 1.13 so we get the best of both worlds. But it's not a big thing, since it's availlable on videotron's page you would have looked at anyway if this prog didn't exist.
My question for cividian, is there a way (like a ini file or something) to install vcmu 1.05c with the username and reset date already there? I'm asking cause I install vcmu silently on my unattended dvd. Thanks

Hi, first of all I'm a very very basic programmer,
now for your comment:
address in the about box: never looked at it before you mention it so when/if I make an update I'll fix it.
dial-up: thanks.
tray icon: that is the only reason why I updated that version, that's the way I want it to be, otherwise I would not have updated this version and would be using Etasse V 1.1x
As for the reset day: that's something very obscure for me, I don't understand why the program was not able anymore to get it automatically since the code looked identical to me as in the v1.1x that is working and since I'm a very basic programmer I got around the problem that I had no idea as of why it didn't work and by the way the information is also available on your Videotron invoice your reset day is your facturation day.
As for the icon, it's only cosmetic and I do not find it so ugly but you can always make it display any icon you want on your machine by changing the icon of your shortcut and pointing to any other .ico or .exe file.
To allow you to install silently, what come to my mind first is that those information are stored in the registry and if I'm not mistaken you are in no way obligated to fill in these field. So what you could do is install the software and then merge a .reg file with your information that need to be filled in the right key as follow:
"username" need to be replaced by your actual username
"ResetDay" change it to your own, acceptable value is 1 to 31
the "accntType" value refer to your access type:
0=base
1=high speed
2 to 4 display "unlimited" instead of the actual % of your usage.
You should do this after installing the application, then when you start vcmu it will have all your information.

Oh and if I might add, the yellow icon is so much better than the ugly purple one
But wether the version, this is really a must have for any videotron user

So what you could do is install the software and then merge a .reg file with your information that need to be filled in the right key as follow:
*********** begin copy down this line *******
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VCMU]
"Username"="vlxxxxxx"
"ResetDay"="9"
"AccntType"="1"
******* stop on top of this line *********
save as vcmu.reg then in your automation use:
REGEDIT /S vcmu.reg
"username" need to be replaced by your actual username
"ResetDay" change it to your own, acceptable value is 1 to 31
the "accntType" value refer to your access type:
0=base
