Top 10 Windows Freeware tools for 2005
As we head into 2005’s home stretch, I thought I’d do a round-up of my top 10 pieces of Windows Freeware for 2005. Some of these aren’t new, but certainly what I’d consider essential. Some on the other hand, are new. I’ve tried to avoid the instantly popular ones like Firefox and Opera, although I did give way to Winamp and Konfabulator in the end. But hey, it’s my top 10. If you don’t like it, post your own.

new logo. The files that leaked were hosted on a public Google server, and were found by Living in a Google World earlier this week. The Operating
System which is very unstable (as expected) was leaked for only a few hours, and then taken down - but not before some users got copies of the files.

16.10.2009Windows 7 box art leaks
Potential Windows 7 box art leaked earlier this week from Polish site Centrumxp. Originally many speculated that these images were fake but blogger
Long Zheng has unearthed Microsoft using the same logo on the box art, elsewhere. Microsoft has created a Windows Lounge site for internal employees
to join a Facebook group for information, training and marketing for Windows 7. The group uses the following image for its logo: Compared to the
box art that was leaked it's too similar. It appears as though this could be concept or final box art for the Windows 7 packaging. Microsoft
officials have said "off the record" that Windows 7 will RTM in the Summer and be available for the Fall.

Redmond still haven't called that plumber, the official RC build has leaked online at the usual places. We revealed yesterday that the Windows 7
RC build was 7100 and according to many Neowin members the x86 version has leaked just a short time ago. We expect the RC will be available to the
public shortly and Redmond could still hit the rumored May 5th date. There is speculation the software giant will hold off until May 15th, the last
day of Tech-Ed 2009.

24.04.2009Windows 7 build 7077 leaks
According to several reports from Neowin members, Windows 7 build 7077 has leaked to various torrent sites. Named as an RC escrow build it's
likely that 7077.0.090404-1255 is the RC that will be modified to 7100 and distributed widely in May. Microsoft confirmed the 7100 path yesterday on
its Engineering Windows 7 blog by advising users to modify the MinClient build number from 7100 to 7000 in order to enable beta to RC upgrades. It is
now expected that Microsoft will name 7100 as the RC build and builds 7105 onwards will be the ongoing development branched towards RTM.

08.04.2009Windows 7 build 7232 leaks, with new wallpaper
It's that time again, another week and another Windows 7 build leak. They are really starting to flow now leading up to RTM and this time there
are changes to report. Last week we had 7229 leak and this week it's build 7232.winmain.090610-1900 that has wriggled out of Microsoft's
Redmond HQ and is being distributed across the net. The most obvious visual change is that a new default wallpaper has been set and there is no more
betta fish. The new wallpaper is named harmony. Windows 7 is still on track for a July RTM, and it's possible that it may even RTM by the end of
June.

the build tag 7048.0.winmain.090219-1845 meaning it was compiled on the 19th February. According to the screenshots that leaked yesterday 7048
includes a tweaked start button, new icons for Notes, Paint and Calculator applications and Aero Peek is enabled on alt+tab. 7048 is a pre-RC1
compile of Windows 7 and is not likely to become the final RC1 build.

"friendly" Microsoft Ukraine individuals. It's not likely that the build contains any of the UAC changes Microsoft has recently promised. The
build is Build 7022.winmain.090115-1850 which indicates it was built nearly a month ago. Some Microsoft employees have twittered recently that they
were "installing build 7034" so the company is clearly pushing ahead with the builds ready for the upcoming Release Candidate.

Help Find Memory Leaks in Firefox
If youre a Firefox enthusiast, the Mozilla community is currently looking for additional volunteers to help reduce memory usage and fix any memory
leaks in the browser. If youre not a programmer, Firefox programmer Jesse Ruderman says you can still
help: If youre a Firefox user, an easy way to help is to browse with a trunk nightly build wrapped in a script that calls leak-gauge.pl when
Firefox exits. If it reports that documents or windows leaked, try to figure out how to reproduce the leak and then file a bug report.
The
goal of the project is to reduce the memory usage in Firefox 3. On his blog, Ruderman details a number of leaks that have already been identified and
fixed.
For more info on Firefox 3, check out the projects wiki
page at Mozilla.

Microsoft to RTM Windows 7 this week? Build 7260 leaks
Earlier today Neowin reported that Windows 7 build 7232 had leaked. What a difference a few more hours makes, now 7260 has leaked and the Russian site
Wzor claims that Microsoft will build the RTM (release to manufacturing) build between June 15-19. If Wzor is correct, and that's a big if and
rumour, then we may see the final Windows 7 RTM build ready this weekend. Internal sources indicate that 7260 is still the latest build under the
win7_rtm branch. Build 7260 carries the tag 7260.win7_rtm.090612-2110 and is an RTM escrow build meaning vigorous testing will commence to ensure this
is the final code unless there are show stopper bugs.

Windows 7 leaks to Web, pirates downloading
Leaked copies of Windows 7 hit the Internet only hours after Microsoft Corp. handed out a preview build to developers last week, according to searches
at several BitTorrent-tracking sites. The notorious Pirate Bay site, for example, first noted the 32-bit version of the upcoming operating system on
Oct. 29, just one day after Microsoft unveiled Windows 7 to attendees at its Professional Developers Conference in Los Angeles. A 64-bit edition was
posted the following day.
As of midday Sunday, with several copies of Windows 7 available, downloading was brisk. One 32-bit torrent listed
on Pirate Bay showed more than 1,400 "seeders," the term for a computer that has a complete copy of the torrent file, and close to 5,300
"leechers," or computers that have downloaded only part of the complete torrent. The 32-bit torrent installs a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate, according
to users commenting on the site.
