As I have not been here for a while I don't know the current status of the war on false positives, but I remember that it was common of AV-companies to report autoitscript-executables as viruses. If this has been resolved with the later versions of AutoIt, then a recompile of the application might help against this as the current exe is compiled with an old version of autoit. This, however, requires me to get hold of the source, which i can't do at the moment (finals week).

Wow, did't think anyone would still be interested in this old project, in fact I had forgotten about it. I don't have the latest version of the source code available, but i think i have the hard drive from the computer on which i developed this application on somewhere, but I have no intentions of starting digging after that now. However, I had a copy of the web root on which i used to host it, so i uploaded the zip from there on the first post (When i first created this project the attachment space was nowhere near the size of today, which was the reason for an external mirror) EDIT: Also, it should be noted that I've not done any exhaustive testing with the application on modern operating systems. Windows 7 (or vista?) and newer do not like programs writing in their own folders (which is a good thing) which may break some functions. However, as stated above, download in first post

I'm happy to see that there is still interest in this old application, the reason for not fixing this sooner was that i have not been getting any emails from the forum since the update, and it's not until now, that I myself needed to install the application, saw your posts (And the broken link). I do no longer host a website, and my file quota on the forums is already full, however i noticed that i could upload the app to another place on the Autoit website, so you can now find it here: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/files/file/190-alibi-controller-installer-251/ The change log and screenshots are not available ATM, as I do not have the source material. But I will recover the hard drive from the old laptop that I wrote this on and get this information as soon as I can.

Hi, I am very sorry for the inconvenience, but I haven't had any time to fix a real solution. The website on which I am hosting my files have recently changed its layout, and with the change, the download system I used disappeared. And as the site now runs on a CMS with a smaller user base, I haven't been able to find a download system of my liking.However, I use a temporary system, but I have not updated all the links in the version update posts, the only working one is the link in the first post

This was one of the nicest programs I've ever seen, polished, functional yet cool. I think I'll be able to learn a lot of GDI+ and Bass from this script Great job!

You're better of trying to use some ready built interface like RDP or VNC. You could build your own by using GDI+ and TCP to transfer pictures. But if you decide to build your own, remember that it is going to be slow, the ones that are already built uses some advanced compressing and optimizing algorithms.

ALIBI Controller 2.5.1 released! Finaly after a long search I have fount the old TCP UDF, and with it ALIBI Controller works as good as before 2.4, which is seamless I have also tweaked some other things to make it run smoother. So I now release version 2.5.1. and I highly recommend everyone sitting on an old version to upgrade. Changes Changed the select function (after a filetransfer) to just open the destination folder.Removed requireadmin from the installer, I now warn the user by a note.Finaly found the old TCP file that works Now no TCP errors are encountered (as far as I am concerned)Added a small sleep between regestering TCP functions.Changed the sceenshot time to 500ms before transfer to allow the client to prepare for it...@Huer: It is working over the internet but you'll have to forward the port 65335 on the computer you want to connect to. It is Vista compatible, but you'll need to start the server as administrator to be able to use all the functions. Check first post for download link

Well I noticed that some functions needs to be executed as Admin, so simply start the Server with admin rights to be able to use them. I will investigate which functions that require this so that I can document them better. @AlmarM: Thanks, (some stars are always a great sign of appreciation ) Also, I have finally found the old version of the TCP-UDF used in version 2.2, so the next version 2.5.1 will (probably) work as great as the 2.2 did, but with all the new functionality, I hope to have a release this week .

Could you provide some more information so that i might be able to fix the problem? First, when you say it was working, did you actually get a confirmation in the log on what for instance the return value from the messageboxes was? Second, What OS are you on, I think that on Vista (and Win7?) the only "other" functions that works are "Run", "navigate webbrowser to", "Send message with synthetic voice" and "emulate keyboard input"

I don't think that this would help him, the script gets paused at the message box and can't execute anything before its closed.

Ok, then I'm surprised that it even worked one time I have not been testing this with Vista and certainly not with Vista on different LANs. However i know that the error occurs a lot more often when you are on different LANs. The error I get seems to be that either the server or the client gets an event, but not both of them on the same time... And a change in registering events made an obvious difference, so I guess that the issue is speed... But again, the UDF worked perfectly in the earlier version...

Hi Ferrum, I am sorry that it does not work for you, but I appreciate that you read the information. As for now I do not have a solution, I am working on finding one, but as the error is in the TCP UDF I do not understand the code well enough yet to do any extensive debugging. Again, I am very sorry that it does not work for you. Also, was the connection inside one LAN or was it between different LANs?

ALIBI Controller 2.5 released! I am sorry for all the troubles that came with version 2.4 and i still haven't been able to get rid of them all, I've done my best to get the TCP to work better and some improvement has been made. But as mentioned, there are still some instability. However, here are the fixes (not many new features this time ) Removed sarcasm in the log, instead now you click F2 for information when the issue appearsMade the preferences field for webcamera exposure only accept digitsAdded a warning when trying to use iTunes if iTunes is not installed (this caused chrash)Changed while sleep in both Server and Client from 20 to 10msNow using the latest TCP UDF again, but the error still persistsRegistering the receive event before the connection event (seems to help a bit, but i don't know why )Added a optional confirmation on the server to show that it is listeningChanged the tooltips on the installer to use the "bubble" ones.Fixed a bug where the server hanged and had to be force-quited if a screenshot was captured that was under 1 byte in size (a failure often encountered when no webcamera is installed)Known bugs: TCP issues, sometimes the function connection established does not get called...The CMD prompt gets started everytime you execute a command, this means that the cd commands and such does not work (commands that modify directory etcetera)When using tabbed MSN windows with MSN plus, the windows-listview in terminate processes gets messed up. Edit: Added bugs...

ALIBI Controller 2.4 released! After a long wait and a total of 667 downloads(!) I now release version 2.4 Changes Made the tab control multi line.Added basic authentication (thanks wraithdu for idea)Added options to control media players via media keys. (I could not find a WMP UDF, and MS documentation did not encourage me to write my own) (thanks tobi2006 for idea, though I am sorry I could not make it better)Added a function that enables you to update the current folder in remote explorer by clicking the top columnAdded a setting to change the screenshot qualityAdded a parameter to let the webcam optimize exposure before taking the pictureChanged "Connection failed" to "Ping failed" when a Ping failsThe program does no longer get the IP when enumerating computers. (beacause this made it slow if a computer did not respond)If your filetransfer hangs up, disconnection now resets so that you can use the client without restartRewrote the filetransfer functions so that I understand what I am doing Fixed a visual bug with the iTunes songinfo listviewAdded listview to terminate process so that you can doubble click an entry in the list to select itAdded Another listview in the tab to doubble click window and terminate its processFixed a issue where the format of the basic info was messed upRemoved the iTunes button "Unload" untill this function does actually workChanged a spelling mistake in the FAQChanged "this computer" to "my computer"Added the ability to plant a file on the other computer (veeery buggy)Added multi drive browsing in Explorer tab, this is availiable when pressing up at the for example C:\ dirKnown bugs: TCP issues, sometimes the function connection established does not get called... When you get the log message "CLIENT:Connection established (probably not)" You are probably not connected, try to reconnect untill the server says you are connected. (I am unsure if this is the case on all computers)The CMD prompt gets started everytime you execute a command, this means that the cd commands and such does not work (commands that modify directory etcetera)When using tabbed MSN windows with MSN plus, the windows-listview in terminate processes gets messed up.

Does this really release the COM object, it seems as it just empties the variable :S I am looking for a way to release the iTunes COM object so iTunes do not warn you about an application using the iTunes scripting interface...

The account specific data for MSN is probably stored in Microsoft's servers, otherwise you would not be able to log in on other computers with the same username.

I think this would be very hard to run smooth, have you tested Koda?

I feel owned Why do I do everything the hard way

It sure is $AccountName = "Johnny" ;Some Text (unknown to me on the real script) $AccountPass = "asdf" ;More text (also unknown to me on the real script) $delay = 100 $aAcc = StringSplit($AccountName,"") $aPass = StringSplit($AccountPass,"") For $i=1 To $aAcc[0] Step 1 Send ($aAcc[$i]) Sleep($delay) Next For $i=1 To $aPass[0] Step 1 Send ($aPass[$i]) Sleep($delay) Next

ControlClick doesnt work?

Look under "Running Scripts" in the helpfile, there is some info on Command Line Parameters there. Basically There is an array like this (from helpfile) $CmdLine[0] is number of parameters $CmdLine[1] is param 1 (after the script name) $CmdLine[2] is param 2 etc

If you press Ctrl+F7 you'll get a window where you can modify those things

Well First. Why do you use a for next, do you really have to register your functions 3 times?, I don't think that will work... Secondly, I wouldn't use Do as a function name, as it is a loop indicator (I don't know if this actually causes any problems, but it feels wrong) Last, Unregister the adlib when you want the function to not be executed every 10 minutes, you can do this at exit (even though I think this is done automaticlly) begin() Func begin() $userNumMins = 10 ;~ For $x = 0 To 2 $totMins = $userNumMins * 60000 AdlibRegister("DoSomething", $totMins) ;~ Next EndFunc ;==>begin Func DoSomething() MsgBox(0, "Message", "10 minutes has passed by") EndFunc ;==>DoSomething Func OnAutoItExit() AdlibUnRegister("DoSomething") EndFunc ;==>OnAutoItExit
