I was running XAMPP as I set up Mercury Mail to have all testing facilities on a sandboxed machine.  But after my recent build I want all the comps running the same thing as it makes setting up the dozens of localhost subdomains that I use much easier.

Ah yeah, a homogeneous environment does help things.

It didn't help that Mercury mail was a bugger to get working right.  As I recall I am all over the XAMPP forum with questions on what I was doing wrong - maybe I should have asked you Dweezo? Do you think you could get it working locally?

XAMPP?  Probably.  Mercury Mail?  Probably not.

It was the mail server I was talking about and for some reason the mail sent from a locally installed version of SMF (via php) wasn't caught by it.

Try the following freebies  :) :)
http://www.freemake.com/
I D.loaded "red cliff" but the subtitles weren't hard encoded so i tried on my installed Xilisoft and way too long to encode and then no sound. :-[
looked around for a free alternative and was about to give up, so many were confusing.Stumbled upon this @ cnet,  both down loaders and editors rated it pretty high so why not try.
Wow so easy to use, hard encoded the sub's with ease and no loss of quality what so ever  :D
Looked at their other available software and can honestly say
easy to use, easy to navigate, easy on the eye.
Plenty of options also.As yet no problems .
Give it a try as i cannot believe this wont be snapped up by a large firm.

Qupzilla is kinda cool.  It's like Firefox with some of the extensions you'd want already included, except a vertical tab bar, so it's not a real replacement.

It's multi-platform, so it'll run on your OS/2 machine as well.
