Fping Video

I was checking some backlinks yesterday when I discovered that Amit Vartak made a complete video tutorial of Fping on SecurityTube. It describes every option of Fping version 2.17 . I've added a lot of cool stuff afterwards but it's still great to see that people like the software enough to create video tutorials. So thanks for creating these, I really appreciate it. There are 4 videos and I've embedded them all here.

Fping 2.21

I took some time of other projects to update my Fping application. I've corrected several faults that have been in there since the first release but always went unnoticed. One of the things we corrected was the amount of data sent. We used the first 4 databytes to store timing information. These 4 bytes became obsolete when I introduced a new timing system. Unfortunately I forgot to remove those 4 bytes of data. These 4 bytes are now replaced with regular ping data.

I also adjusted the Windows timer resolution. Seems this was causing problems on certain systems and users where unable to ping fast enough. Now pinging should be lightning fast on all systems.
