• boates Is there a way not to terminate the application when unhandled exception is thrown on background thread?

  An unhandled exception thrown on background thread causes the application to terminate in CLR v2.0.

  I'm getting much better compression when I make a compressed folder (Windows XP) than I am using DeflateStream or GZipStream.  I thought these were the same algorithms used in PKZIP and for compressing folders.  Why such bad compression DeflateStream: 3544Kb -> 1261Kb GZipStream: 3544Kb -> 1261Kb Windows XP: 3544Kb -> 804Kb So how can I get the same compression ratio as Windows XP Thanks, Jeremy ...Show All
