Question: It looks like linking with wsock32 and just including jnetlib in the build for an executable is possible to trigger false positive for a virus even if the code is never called. False positives have been a huge problem... currently thinking for a late release model if that is going to help the situation a little bit. Any other thoughts? Thanks

Question: Long time fan, first time caller. Do you happen to remember SongMeanings? We announced our beta on the Winamp forums in March 2001 or so. Wondering if we were ever on Nullsoft's radar. We had a minibrowser plugin! Such fond memories of the Winamp days. Hope all is well.

Question: I asked ChatGPT an easy thing, but it failed to do it properly. I asked it to ask me perfect fifth above any music note, then I answer it, and it have to tell me whether it is correct or not. So, when it ask me, and when I answer it, it rather give perfect fifth above my answer note, instead of telling me whether my answer note is correct perfect fifth above question note or not, LOL
