Ari Pollak sent along some additional tidbits of info regarding how to remove CIH from your system, if you're one of the unlucky persons stuck with it (Thanks, Ari!):
The WIN95.CIH virus is memory-resident to the max, which means that once you're infected, every single program that you run will also be infected, and most Anti-virus programs will not run when they detect that they are corrupt. So you might want to issue a warning to users not to run any Anti-virus programs in Windows because they could only spread the virus further. I suggest that they download Norton's KILL_CIH, which kills all variations of CIH, plus "inoculates" your computer so you can not re-infect your memory during that session, allowing you to run an anti-virus program. KILL_CIH is located at the Symantec (Norton) Antivirus Research Center. -Tom, Herr Direktor. |

Some of you have emailed support regarding problems installing Winamp 2.04 on your machine. Specifically most of you have had problems with the installer, which won't install because there's a CRC error. Well, we've got some good news and some bad news
for those of you suffering this malaise. The good news is that the new Winamp Installer sort of doubles as a virus detector. That is, if someone tries to infect our installer before sending it out to you, it won't install itself on your computer.
The bad news, though, is if you're receiving this error, your computer was probably infected with a virus before you downloaded Winamp. Most people having this problem have computers which were previously infected with the W95.CIH virus. Norton Antivirus or most other recent virus programs are capable of disinfecting your system from t his somewhat benign virus. Winamp will install normally after you disinfect your system and download a fresh copy of Winamp. If you check your system for viruses and still don't find any problems, your browser is probably corrupting the file on download. Try using an FTP client to download the latest Winamp. CuteFTP is on e of many excellent FTP clients. Once you snag a client, try downloading from ftp.cdrom.com in the /pub/audio/nullsoft/winamp directory. Special thanks to you all for putting up with the recent server problems. We're simply overloaded on bandwidth demand and underpaid to support what we need. We're working on remedies and expanding our servers to support the load you're generating. You should see significant improvement today, but things will get better and better in the future. Thanks for your patience as we keep growing! -Tom, dude who's forgotten what the sun looks like. P.S. FreeBSD ROCKS!!! |

Justin "persuades" Jenn to start doing Tech Support again. Jenn decides to give it another go. Jenn would also like to thank all the ready and willing volunteers. She will keep your email addresses handy for if/when she needs a little help. -Jenn, The Now-Reinstated Tech Support Person, Nullsoft P.S. Hi STEVE!!! |

A.K.A. Jenn's Long-Ass Update
And thus begins the story of Jenn, the usually silent member of the Winamp.com team. She would just like to express her deep apologies for the masses that have emailed Tech Support and have not received a response. Earlier, when Jenn first started handl ing Tech Support and bug reports and suggestions and so on, her profession was that of a lazy bum, having really nothing else to do with the loads of free time on her hands. And then, while Winamp Tech Support was fairly new and the email address was buried deep within the large quantities of HTML that run rampant on Winamp.com, Jenn took on the title of Resource Curator, which sounds nifty, but was really more of a catch-all for whatever task Rob, Tom, or Justin felt was too tedious and did not want to do at the moment. However, Jenn had fun. We laughed, cried, and had an all around good time sorting through skin and plug-in submissions, and Jenn first waded through HTML, learning tags and hexidecimal colors and cursed tables. Life went on its merry little way. Weeks pass .. Jenn continued on, sorting through the growing number of email and skin and plug-in submissions, dedicating hours out of her week- err, day, ever valiant. Sometimes she would be gone for days at a time, and come back to several hundreds of email waiting for her when she returned home. Daunting as this was, Jenn would attempt to answer as many as she could, before realizing the effort was moot, scrapping the lot of them, and starting over anew. But, Jenn then endeavored to find a job, outside of the apartment, and unattach herself from Justin's hip. She had several get-rich-quick no-actual-effort-involved ways of doing it, all of which failed, hopelessly, miserably. Jenn then resorted to the g ood ol' fashioned, get up and get dressed, and go submit applications in at various establishments. One of which being Photography by JCPenney's. A few more weeks pass. Jenn begins to lose hope. Lo and behold! The Studio Manager from the JCPenney Portrait Studio calls, wanting her to work for them. Jenn rejoices! Jenn does a little jig. She goes through training, paid thankfully, and endures hours of repetitive, mind-numbing videos, and takes practice portraits (which surprisingly turn out well, disregarding the fact that the subject w as an over-sized stuffed panda). Jenn begins to work part-time. A dilemma developes! Jenn comes home tired from work, and no longer wants to sort through the masses of email on her days off. Sadly, Tech Support gets shafted. She makes futile attempts at responding, but soon the amount of email grosses over 5,000. Jenn can no longer 'read and sometimes reply to your bug report emails'. Jenn hangs her head. -Jenn, Karma Dispenser, Team Nullsoft P.S. Jenn would like to add that she still is going over skin and plug-in submissions, and is also taking Tech Support VOLUNTEERS .. if you hardly ever receive email and would like to and/or are an all-around good samaritan, AND (this is very impor tant) know Winamp inside and out, please email Jenn at jenn@nullsoft.com. Thank you. |

Steve Rennie, the Grand Poobah of UBL, sent us
some info on a free Chemical Brother's remix of the band Mercury Rev's
song Delta Sun
Bottleneck Stomp. This is free, legal, new music from major label
artists online in MP3, so go
check it. Chemical Brothers fans rejoice.
As you might guess, we get a lot of email. We like to hear from you. However, please don't send us useless email unless it's laughably bad, for example, "...you guys should code less and watch more porn..." Thanks. -Rob, Rookie Third Baseman, Team Nullsoft |

That counter is getting dangerously close to 13M. Winamp 2.03 is on its way with numerous bugfixes and a couple new features. Meanwhile, you can get VQF support for Winamp here, SID support for Winamp here (thanks to all the people developing Winamp plug-ins-- you rule). On that note, here is a request to plug-in authors: If you haven't already, please submit your plug-ins to our database by clicking here. We're trying to build up our list, and we'd appreciate having all the coolest plug-ins around -Justino Badino, Nullsoft |
