Title: Keep locally owned viruses active on IP change.
Post by: Tiak on August 08, 2008, 10:18:26 AM
Well, I don't care about this one one a whole lot, and it certainly shouldn't be high priority, but it seems a bit silly that you can lose your connection to yourself.

(At the same time, I don't expect an idea that proposes removing a disadvantage of IP-changing to be particularly popular, but I'm just throwing it out there.   :16:)

I'd like to make a vote for this one as well... seems stupid that, for example, a Sniffer Daemon (beneficial virii that you'd actually install) would lose the connection talking to the same computer that it's installed on... Really? :)

You can just reactivate them with a Virus Breaker.

But should you really have to steal your OWN virii back in the first place?

and the breaker reduces version #

not by a great deal, but it racks up.

I find also that this idea is a good one.  :7:

(yeah I found this out the hard way! Was a bit of a surprise but oh well I installed by sniffer again and all was good)
