WPA crash vista???
Okay. I need help since I barely use M$ any more, the last time I used it for something other than school, work, or AIM was back in the days of WIN98. I was just reading the article on this site,
Is Microsoft about to release a Windows “kill switch”? | Ed Bott's Microsoft Report | ZDNet.com, and I have a question about it. Does this only apply to XP or to Vista as well? Because my friend just had her first "Blue Screen of Death" attack and is scared that she destroyed her computer. I have yet to know if it happened right after security updates or not, but I know she has auto updates so it would have done it itself.
Any help would be appriciated.

Do I need to get the very latest version of Exceed to run on Vista ? or is there an interim version which I might find on Ebay ?

dupdb-admin
dupdp-admin(1) General Commands Manual dupdp-admin(1)
NAME
dupdb-admin - Manage the duplicate database for apport-retrace.
SYNOPSIS
dupdb-admin -f dbpath status
dupdb-admin -f dbpath dump
dupdb-admin -f dbpath changeid oldid newid
DESCRIPTION
apport-retrace(1) has the capability of checking for duplicate bugs (amonst other things). It uses an SQLite database for keeping track of
master bugs. dupdb-admin is a small tool to manage that database.
The central concept in that database is a "crash signature", a string that uniquely identifies a particular crash. It is built from the
executable path name, the signal number or exception name, and the topmost functions of the stack trace.
The database maps crash signatures to the 'master' crash id and thus can close duplicate crash reports with a reference to that master ID.
It also tracks the status of crashes (open/fixed in a particular version) to be able to identify regressions.
MODES
status Print general status of the duplicate db. For now, it only shows the time when the database was "consolidated" last, i. e. when the
bug states (open/fixed) in the SQLite database where updated to the actual states in the bug tracking system.
dump Print a list of all database entries.
changeid
Change the associated crash ID for a particular crash.
OPTIONS
-f path, --database-file=path
Instead of processing the new crash reports in /var/crash/, report a particular report in an arbitrary file location. This is use-
ful for copying a crash report to a machine with internet connection and reporting it from there. This defaults to ~./apport_dupli-
cates.db.
