Odd. Not sure why that would be.

Would be a nice feature.

It's one of those errors that doesn't make any sense.

A comment on the discussion "how uninstall wuala??!!" in Wuala:

If it makes you feel any better, the uninstaller is in the works for next update,.If not, oh well.

Also, if you don't mind me asking, besides not having an uninstaller, how did Wuala not live up to your desires? – Deathbob, on November 16, 2009 17:12

large = ~few hundred.

If you are trading storage, backup your data folder so you don't loose your space. Then reinstall wuala. Let it run for a day and see if it crashes, if it doesn't then try putting the data folder back.

Have you uploaded a large number of files recently?

Deathbob replied on November 14, 2009 00:11 to the problem "Uninstalling Wuala = Finding Higgs Boson" in Wuala:

Nope. I just searched my registry and didn't find anything worth removing.
(Just caches for other applications)

Deathbob replied on November 13, 2009 17:23 to the problem "Uninstalling Wuala = Finding Higgs Boson" in Wuala:

applicationdata/wuala
localsettings/temp/wualatemp
launch4j-tmp/wuala.exe

the launch4j-tmp is for making wuala show us as wuala in taskmanager.
I don't think we use that anymore (i can't find it on my system).

Deathbob started following the idea "Wuala on Android OS / Google phone" in Wuala.

Windows manages the prefetch folder. You can delete it but windows will take care of that whenever it decides it should.

Uninstalling is http://www.wuala.com/en/support/faq/c...

It has been on the list to make an uninstall ability.
And you now have a ticket http://bugs.wuala.com/view.php?id=304

And I'm not sure who's responsibility launch4j temp files are, but it is probably us and it should actually probably be removed after install not uninstall.

Very strange. Does enabling compatibility mode change anything?

I'm at a loss. Wuala SHOULD not be able to crash other applications. For kicks and giggles, have you tried reinstalling Wuala?

A comment on the problem "Wuala causes internet (http) freeze" in Wuala:

Also, it is Wuala. Wuala is more aggressive than bittorrent with UDP connections, but that shouldn't crash windows applications, just poorly factory configured NAT routers/gateways. In my experience my gateway modem would crash when running wuala, it was from a stupidly high factory setting of DAYS.

Bittorrent will typicly/ideally maintain the same connections thorough the entire download, Wuala will change connections because a single computer only has a small fragment of your files. – Deathbob, on November 06, 2009 17:42

Hmm. Looks to me like your system is infected,

I'd recommend running http://www.malwarebytes.org/
If you don't mind, I'd also throw Spybot Search & Destroy at it http://www.safer-networking.org/

200G (Falls off chair)

On the photo front, many small files can be VERY slow. It is a side effect of the way files are stored.

Can you reproduce the problem again? It is possible there is some bug with large files.

unless you moved the Data folder, there should not be an Old Installation. – Deathbob, on October 25, 2009 22:35

Sounds very close to hitting the connection limit, crashing and rebooting. – Deathbob, on October 24, 2009 09:53

A comment on the question "Downloading fast crashs my Internet connection" in Wuala:

DDOS protection. Now there's a feature I have never seen before. But then again I saw a captcha on a router for the first time last week. – Deathbob, on October 24, 2009 09:40

I thought I found another, but can't seem to now. Was a long day and had internet troubles myself, dying hard drive. The usual ;). Maybe I imagined it, after translating so many pages to a poor english and trying to decipher it I could see anything I wanted.

Only thing I can recommend, is if you can try borrowing another VDSL modem and see if it does the same thing.

As for it working a few months ago, the number of connections varies whenever they change anything. They did reduce it quite a bit a few months ago, maybe its picked up some more bulk. – Deathbob, on October 24, 2009 09:38

Strange. Have you tried rebooting the router?
Also, your files won't be deleted.
