Vista - Marking items as downloaded

Does anyone know whether it is possible to mark an item as downloaded from
the Internet, so you get a warning on attempts to access it?

PowerShell honors file blocking done by IE, of course, but if we use
Net.WebClient or another tool to download the file, IE has no way of knowing
about the file.

you should find an alternate Stream on the files downloaded :

:Zone.Identifier of 26 bits that holds: [ZoneTransfer] ZoneID=3

or 4

to do this by hand (CMD.exe)
make a zone.txt file in notepad incuiding this :

C:\>type zone.txt
[ZoneTransfer]
ZoneID=4

C:\>type zone.txt > test.ps1:Zone.Identifier

Greetings Marc

Brilliant. I hate the workaround, but.. hey, it works.

Unfortunately, there are no managed APIs that allow you to manage alternate
streams from a .Net language.

in .NET also the : is not accepted, we need to use the API to get to ADS

I also did make a wrapper for the API in VB.NET
I planned to make it into a Cmdlet some time ago, as I did run into this
restriction in powershell also on testing, but not had time for it yet
(seeing this good use of it, might speed it up, if you want the VB code I can
look it up).
would be cleaner as a CMD /C in PowerShell (jsut did a quick sample with
notepad)

PS Alex, it's not my meaning to post only workarounds to your posts, just
did answer the question how to set it and where it was stored, and give a way
it is possible ;-)

Yeah, this might be a nice addition to the PowerShell Community Extensions
on CodePlex. I also wondered how to set this file property using standard
tools.
Maybe someone has the time to build a full-featured Cmdlet from it.
Would be nice to have it as a ScriptMethod for FileInfo objects.

I compiled this libarary (part of that where base of my translation to VB.NET
I think when I did find it back)

http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/nt...ams.asp?df=100

this Library gives me all the ADS power I want in PoSH see my commandline
example, see output, and is c# so easy to use for functions or CMDlets

My only problem with the File Blocking is that you need to load a new Shell
for it to work, I think tis was bugged the other way around allready, but was
in core OS.


[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("c:\powershell\ntfs.dll")

"echo test" | out-file c:\powershell\test.ps1

$FS = new NTFS.FileStreams('c:\powershell\test.ps1')
$fs.add('Zone.Identifier')

$stream = $fs.Item('Zone.Identifier').open()

$sw = [System.IO.streamwriter]$stream
$Sw.writeline('[ZoneTransfer]')
$sw.writeline('ZoneID=4')
$sw.close()

$stream.close()

$FS = new NTFS.FileStreams('c:\powershell\test.ps1')

I was able to create new alternate file streams without external library by
using COM.
However, deleting an alternate file stream causes an error message.
Any idea what may cause this error?

[IO.FileInfo]$file = $(throw 'Usage: New-AFS [IO.FileInfo]'),

)
$fullFilePath = Convert-Path $file
if (Test-Path $fullFilePath) {
$fso = New-Object -ComObject Scripting.FileSystemObject
if (($fso.GetDrive($fso.GetDriveName($fullFilePath))).FileSystem -eq
'NTFS') {
$fileStreamName = "${file}:${streamName}"
$ts = $fso.CreateTextFile($fileStreamName)
$ts.Write($streamText)
$ts.Close()
}
}
}

function Get-AFS {

First, where the heck did you come up with that approach?

As for deleting the stream, I can think you can ge the proper effect by
opening the stream as if you are overwriting. I don't know if you need to
actually write anything to the stream to get it to overwrite, but writing an
empty string or a null character should be sufficient if you need to.

-- Lee Holmes [MSFT]

Well, I thought COM is not a managed API... :-)

I forgot to mention this article in my last post:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...html/ntfs5.asp

According to that article, I think my third function should work fine:
"The content of the selected stream can be deleted with a simple call to
DeleteFile()"
Have you tried it on your system? Do you get the same error message?

I think I'm gonna play with this stuff some more.
You can also create hard links and other NTFS features like VolumeMountPoints.
See second part of that article:
