[Bug 1315472] Re: Use tabs instead of dialogs for End of XP support message and other announcements

 

Microsoft have dropped support for a system that is older than a decade.
Go figure. Who knew that they (and we) would eventually drop support for
a system...

If you aren't satisfied, provide a patch to provide a remedy to the
situation (see poy's suggestions) or branch out your own version of
DC++. (Or you know, get a system that isn't old and severely broken.)

In the end, it is the DC++ team's (the developers) decisions, time and
effort that is the cause of good/bad things (per your perception). You
are using a free program, don't treat its developers like we're dirt for
not following every whim of individual users.

Title:
  Use tabs instead of dialogs for End of XP support message and other
  announcements

Status in DC++:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The  imposing message at startup that support is stopping for
  Microsoft and DC++ is an issue:

  1) it cannot be switched off (as far as I can see) so is an unwelcome
  imposition after the first time

  2) is incorrect...I'm using windows 2003 server and support is not
  ending just yet
