Me too - Windows Vista has different directories so I solved the 'blue spot' problem it by editing the memory.txt and gsak.ini files in main GSAK directory.
The GSAK installation is at C:\GSAK\ instead of C:\Program Files\GSAK and 'My Documents' has changed from C:\Documents and Settings\.......\My Documents\ to C:\Users\.........\Documents\
It works fine now.

I discovered this some time ago for caches within UK (to eliminate caches in the Netherlands when using a 250 mile radius).
The workaround I use is:
Deselect 'countries' radio button and adjust mileage
Press 'submit information' button Reselect country and press submit button Then preview results to check what you're getting.It's a real pain in the *ss but it works

You can post a link to your PQ so we can review it to point out all your errors and show how to get it right
seriously you can link to it for PM's to have a look at. here is one of ours designed to return high dificulty caches placed in the last few monthshttp://www.geocaching.com/pocket/gcquery.a...79-927c5445c870
Hmmm. I didn't try, but it looks like we can change it for you as well as see it

It seems to me that the person who now has the bug isn't a cacher and has possibly left it on that traffic island. I assume that the person editing the log added those coords using a map or Google earth (I couldn't convert the coords into anything sensible).

I'm confused. What use is a 1:24,000 grid? Does anyone produce 1:24,000 maps?
-
Yes.

I love squirrels and mice - they steal 35mm film pots left in the woods and hide them somewhere else. Long live the ammo can
There is some truth in the 'no room for tat' argument but you can't get geocoins in there either (and I bet most micro fans are also icon collectors).

I am almost hoping that mine breaks now ... would love a shiny new one.
Watch what you wish for!
I sent back a monochrome Vista last week (faulty screen, occasionally working click-stick and loose rubber) and have just had to pay £73.81 to get it repaired.
Fair enough I suppose, but how do they decide which ones to charge and which need paying for? Is it just cos I'm really good looking -
plus and a minus = a minus innit?I wonder what would happen if you tried to paint a magnet with it??
you would never get the brush off.
Great for Saturday nights then

Just spotted that this milestone was passed over the weekend, and they weren't even at the event! Very well done indeed.
Come on Mr Nibbler, admit it - you're just sucking-up so they'll let you get in before them for a FTF
Anyway, we go along with the sentiment, Congrats Cromscout and TNS

Will we be able to download the whole of UK as a single PQ?
And will it have the answers to all puzzle cashes

We like multi's if they're in a nice location - doesn't matter how many stages there are if the trip is worth it.
A plea though - don't make the final a micro

If she'd have put her hand out, she'd have touched it.
Which is better than we managed on three separate visits

We've just released four coins. I drilled all of them and attached an acrylic key tag with the mission statement inside, to hopefully make them less attractive to coin colectors.
As I dropped the first one into a cache I though 'that would make a really nice keyring'. I can't help wondering if that is how they will end up

I'm sure our friends in Ireland don't have a problem getting the whole of their island each week. Those across the pond will never get the whole of the north American with 40 PQs a week. Why should Groundspeak consider UK cachers to be a special case?

I took my Etrex to Sydney and couldn't get a lock in among the city centre buildings until I went to park near the harbour bridge. Even then it took 40 minutes to acquire all of the data that it needed. I was forced to stay in the park and look at the scenery, tragic
Did you join a team to complete the World Cache (Australia) while you were there? You could have been first to be two team members at the same time

".... will send Firebird into disposable orbit"
Does that mean deep space geolitter or earthbound ash?
-
here it is fine. did you check your "my controls"
Wow. I didn't realise you could do that - I have been putting up with GMT-8 for ages, which is a bit confusing as we are on the prime meridian
Sorted now though, thanks.

Anyone designed a logo yet ?
Will they get a BIGQuest icon (like the project APE caches)?
-
We went looking for it once - it was supposedly a roadside rivet but had been removed at some time. Haven't really bothered since.
What is annoying though, is that this one occasionally turns up on my 'New this week' PQ. How can it possibly be new as it is a virtual?
-
OK. Thanks guys, I'll have another look at my setup.

I just found this thread: Police blow up traffic counter
At least good old Cambridgeshire Bobbies aren't alone.

I tried to drop three trackables into a cache on Sunday evening using Ctrl Click to select but each time I tried it, a new instance of IE launched taking me to my homepage (GC.com/my).
Shift Click worked ok for adjacent trackables but not Ctrl Click. In the end I had to log the cache and then 'write a note' twice to deposit the three bugs.
Is this an IE7 problem (I never had it with IE6), is it a GC.com problem or is it just me being stupid?
