it will also get google off my back.

I don't understand what you mean by this. Can you explain it a bit more?

My only reluctance to open source it is to share the code with the competition

Maybe you can use a modular approach so you can share some code with others and keep other things closed.

and it's failed because of the language difference

Has this issue been resolved?

Is there a step by step guide on how to set it up? Can you post it in the first post. If people want to use it they don't have to look for it on every page.

[idle]

@AZJIO yes that issue was resolved.
The download has always been in the 1st post and setup instructions are there to.

@Wilbert
Google think my software is dangerous they have classified it as unwanted software. So they block the download in Chrome but they also block my website

I would have to open the lot but if no one else participates I'm just exposing the code to scrutiny. For no particular reason other than getting google to stop blocking.

@Caronte3D
Open sourceing is only really useful if people here would want to contribute and they could and can but if people can't trust the software they won't install it.

The js lot have their code exposed all the time so why not. It might actually keep the project alive. As I will loose interest if no one wants it.

Google Chrome forbidden the download, how we can download it?

You can but chrome makes it a bit difficult when it blocks it.
Look at the far right of the browser download bar at the bottom of the page and it says "show all", then you can keep or discard.

I had said in the other thread about google blocking my site and the download link. They refuse to remove the block, I've asked 5 times already, so I will have to put it behind a script to make a random download link.

The reason I'm talking about open sourcing it, is that I suspect google will try to block it indefinitely, they could still block it when it's open sourced but then they've got no real reason to block other than spite as it'd be clear as day that it's harmless software. Has google ever blocked any downloads on github?

[Caronte3D]

Uff! Yes, the evil Google hides the download.
Already downloaded, I will test it, thanks you very much

My internet stopped working. I deleted the program and rebooted, it still does not work, I turned on the Internet through the phone. My router is connected to PPPoE. From the router, I distribute the Internet to 2 computers. Internet works on the second computer. I can't restore mine. That's why I had no desire to do experiments.

I restored it, but before that I switched cables on the router, deleted the network card in the device manager and searched again, rebooted into Linux, now I don’t even know at what point everything was restored.

When I rebooted into Linux, I realized that I had inserted the wrong cable. When I changed the gray and yellow cable, I thought that I was connected to the yellow one and did not stick the gray one. Therefore, in addition to the fact that I did not have the Internet in Windows, after a while a red cross appeared on the connection (the cable was not plugged in). Therefore, I said that I did not understand what was the reason for the restoration, because when the cable was on, the Internet did not work either.

When the computer booted up, the program showed that it blocked the domain of kaspersky and google.

Intalled, disabled the IPV6, and tested...
I think DNScope is awesome!
It's much better tha my previous adblocker and the websites doesn't detect it.
Thanks again!

[AZJIO]

Since I managed to restore the Internet, I decided to try again. I also wanted to show everything how it works for me.

1. Installed the program, the Internet immediately disappeared. At the end of the installation, the "Restart" message didn't work. I rebooted manually.
2. Disabled IPv6, no internet.
3. Rebooted, the Internet does not work. The program crashes at some point.
4. Error in "DNSСcope" delete dialog
5. When I uninstalled the program, it does not restart the computer when I click OK. Maybe it's just a message that I should do it myself.
6. To restore the Internet, I deleted the network card in the device manager. Next, I clicked search for hardware. When the network card appeared, the Internet immediately earned. Before that, I restored IPv6, but it did not help.

Video where the program crashes
network hardware
IPv6
typo

Should something be changed here?

I use it exclusively with no secondary DNS, so if it crashes I have no internet.

[Caronte3D]

I haven't crashes, maybe your answer is for AZJIO?

[idle]

Yes I was just saying I made it exclusive for dns if it hangs or crashes there is no secondary dns.
There might be a sync bug aba problem from out of order execution. Cache writes are atomic no mutex required but it causes a crash and it generally only happens early on when the cache is getting new records added to it

It certainly crashed though I'm aware of the bug now. it was working its just unfortunate the block list have 3 million domains, 75mb file it's a few more than I can check and there will be a lot of .ru sites blocked, it's easy to unblock just drag from red and drop into green and refresh page.

you can use it with an in browser blocker and don't forget to block windows I haven't add those to the list yet.

I just did an update to 0.8.4.1b to address that crash AZJIO encountered. see 1st post for download link

[Caronte3D]

Thanks!
