Most annoying error ever?

The device 'Generic volume' cannot be stopped because a program is still accessing it.

This isn't that helpful. I want to know the name program that is using the drive, and the name of the files that are still open.

Another Twitter bug :)

Firewall Blocked Spotify?

I've been running Spotify for quite some time now. It's a great application for streaming music. However, today the Spotify client refused to log in with the following error message:

An error occured
A firewall may be blocking your Internet connection (error 110). Additionally you could try to change the currently used proxy settings.

The thing is, I have not modified any of my firewall settings. Spotify aside, there's no problem with any of my other applications that need an internet connection. Browsing works fine, using SSH works as usual, etc.

Temporarily disabling the firewall did not help either. Anyone else having the same problem?



Update:
ChrZZ kindly suggested in the comments that resetting my Spotify password should solved the problem. I visited http://www.spotify.com/en/password-reset/ and followed the instructions, and this solved the problem.

Are you also getting the "firewall may be blocking" error? Does resetting the password solve the problem for you too? Please let me know in the comments below.

Update 2:
In the comments Mr Anonymous suggests that all you need to do is to uncheck the "remember me" checkbox. Did this solve the problem for you?

Facebook rejects my email address

Facebook thinks my email address is invalid when I try to sign up for an account. I'm getting an error message saying: "Please enter a valid email address". Funny, since I've been using that email address for some years now:

Update 25th Nov 2009

Found this in their help section:

Unfortunately we do not support email addresses with generic prefixes (e.g. info@, webmaster@ etc.). Since email addresses of this nature are typically used for organizations and businesses, we do not allow them to be used for personal Facebook accounts. You will need to use a personal email address that does not contain this type of prefix. There are no exceptions to this rule.

Why doesn't Twitter search find my tweets?

Here's an old tweet of mine:



Why does it not appear when searching for WideCharToMultiByte:



What am I missing here? Shouldn't a tweet appear in the search result when using one of the the words from the tweet as a search term?

Some of my tweets are coming up in the search result though. For example, a search for freefixer shows some of my tweets.
