19.8.2009 Tools to Automate RapidShare Downloading for Free Users With No CAPTCHA
RapidShare CAPTCHA has always been hacked no matter how tough they made it. Usually whenever RapidShare updates their CAPTCHA, it only took a few days for third party download tools to auto recognize it. One of the toughest CAPTCHA was with cats and dogs in them and it took 3-4 weeks to be cracked. A few days after the cats and dogs CAPTCHA has been cracked, RapidShare installed a new CAPTCHA system called TEABAG_3D.

The music industry in Germany has secured a legal victory over the hugely popular file-hosting service, Rapidshare. According to the rights holders,

28.03.2007Comcast sets monthly bandwidth limit for customers
Comcast, the largest provider of cable-based broadband service in the U.S., will limit residential customers to 250GB of bandwidth a month beginning
Oct. 1, the company announced late Thursday. Comcast will contact customers who go above the 250GB limit and ask them to curtail their use, Comcast
said. If a customer goes over the monthly limit again during the following six months, Comcast will suspend service for a year.
Currently,
Comcast contacts high-bandwidth customers and will suspend their accounts if they don't curb their use, but it has not set a firm bandwidth limit
until now. Most customers contacted about their bandwidth usage agree to limit their activity, according to Charlie Douglas, Comcast's director of
communications.

06.11.2007Hotmail Gets Storage Limit Bump, Other Upgrades
Microsoft announced today that
Hotmail would undergo some
major upgrades over the next
several weeks that should make
the service more attractive to
webmail users. The most
notable change is that the
company is bumping the storage
limit for Hotmail from 2GB
(for free account users) to
5GB, and from 4GB to 10GB for
paid users. This brings
Hotmail's storage limit above
that offered by Google-which
remains at 2.8GB for free
accounts and 8.8GB for the
lowest tier of paid
accounts.
That's
not the only upgrade the
webmail service is getting.
Hotmail program manager Ellie
Powers-Boyle wrote on the
Windows Live Blog that the
team has begun adding features
that the "more advanced"
users have been asking for.
Some of the more general
upgrades include performance
and quality of service
enhancements and an increase
to the amount of time junk
mail and deleted items are
kept on the server.

15.08.2007Toshiba Preps 2GB NAND Flash Memory Chips
In April 2007, Toshiba will
begin selling NAND flash
memory chips capable of
holding up to 2GB of data.
2GB? Why is this a big deal?
Patience my friend, I'm
getting to that. The 2GB
availability should mean that
higher capacity flash memory
cards, used in anything from
digital cameras to music
players, are on their way. The
last chips were of 1GB in size
and Toshiba made them
available late last year as
engineering examples.
These flash memory
cards are limited to the
physical number of chips that
can fit in the card: the
bigger the capacity per chip,
the bigger the overall
capacity of the flash card.
According to Toshiba, thanks
to a new 56-nanometer
production process that
doubles memory density
(developed by partner
SanDisk), these chips will be
the highest capacity currently
available. Samples of the 2GB
will be priced at $31 per
chip.

08.11.2007Broadband users reach their limit
One million UK consumers have exceeded or come close to exceeding their broadband usage limit, research from consumer group uSwitch has found.
So-called usage caps, where internet service providers limit the amount of bandwidth users can have in any given month, are standard
practice.
But the majority of users are still confused by the bandwidth curbs imposed on them, the research found.
For some who
go over their limit the penalty is disconnection.
"With so much reliance on broadband, having the service disconnected could feel to
someone as serious as having their electricity cut off," said Tim Wolfenden, spokesman for uSwitch.

29.11.2005Samsung introduces 60nm-class processing for 2Gb DDR2
Samsung Electronics has announced that it has developed what it claims is the industry's first 60nm-class 2Gb DDR2 and will begin mass producing it
later this year. Compared with 80nm 2Gb DDR2, the 60nm-class with a speed of 800-megabits per second has improved DRAM performance up to 20%.
Moreover, production efficiency for the new 2Gb DDR2 will be enhanced by about 40% using the finer 60nm-class process technology.
Besides
its greater efficiencies, the new 2Gb DDR2 device will provide twice as much storage capacity over existing system memory solutions, which will
accelerate the move toward higher densities in high-end market segments, according to Samsung

12.09.2007Windows 7 Starter Edition details confirmed
As was reported here on Neowin, there was speculation that Microsoft were planning to remove the application limit on Windows 7 Starter Edition.
According to The Windows Blog, Microsoft have confirmed that the "3 applications at a time" limit that hobbled earlier versions of the Starter
Edition has been removed for Windows 7. Now the only effective limit on the number of programs you can run concurrently is set by the amount of your
memory. Windows 7 Starter Edition will have other limits, however, in order to differentiate it from other versions of the OS. "Windows 7 Starter
does not include: * Aero Glass, meaning you can only use the "Windows Basic" or other opaque themes.

28.11.2007Bump your notebook to 2GB of RAM for $26.99 after rebate
If you bought a budget-level notebook within the past year, chances are good it came with Windows Vista and 1GB of RAM--a poor combination to say the
least. Vista needs at least 2GB to operate efficiently, especially on notebooks with integrated graphics processors (which borrow RAM from the rest of
the system).
Newegg.com has a
Transcend 2GB PC2 5300

29.11.2007As ISPs choke file-sharing, users look elsewhere
As
ISPs constrict
file-sharing services such as BitTorrent, new data shows that users are moving to file-hosting Web sites to avoid slow downloads.
RapidShare and
MegaUpload are
among the most used file-hosting services. Together, the two sites account for 9 percent of all Internet traffic in the Middle East and 4 percent in
Germany, according to iPoque, a company based in Leipzig, Germany, that specializes in traffic-management appliances for ISPs.
The percentages are significant since over the last year usage of file-sharing sites, which number in the dozens, has surged, said Klaus
Mochalski, iPoque's CEO. The sites offer potentially faster download speeds for sharing files than peer-to-peer networks.

29.11.2007Microsoft to Limit Capabilities of Cheap Laptops
Microsoft is launching a program to promote the use of its Windows OS in ultra low-cost PCs, one effect of which will be to limit the hardware
capabilities of this type of device, IDG News Service has learned.
Microsoft plans to offer PC makers steep discounts on Windows
XP Home Edition to encourage them to use that OS instead of Linux on ultra low-cost PCs (ULPCs). To be eligible, however, the PC vendors that make
ULPCs must limit screen sizes to 10.2 inches and hard drives to 80G bytes, and they cannot offer touch-screen PCs.
The program is
outlined in confidential documents that Microsoft sent to PC makers last month, and which were obtained by IDG News Service. The goal apparently is to
limit the hardware capabilities of ULPCs so that they don't eat into the market for mainstream PCs running Windows Vista, something both Microsoft
and the PC vendors would want to avoid.

10.05.2008Toshiba: integrated HD DVD would 'limit' Xbox experience
Microsoft will not build an HD DVD drive into a future Xbox 360 because it doesn't want to "limit the user's experience", an insider at fellow HD
DVD backer Toshiba has said.
Not exactly a ringing endorsement of the next-generation optical disc format, you might think, but
there you have it it: buy HD DVD, limit your experience.
The comment comes from an unnamed Toshiba spokesperson
by way of Yahoo! News.
The commentator also dismissed recent claims that
Toshiba is
working on machine - possibly even an HD TV - with built-in Xbox 360 functionality.
"Its got nothing to do with us," the
spokesperson said. "But we know Microsoft doesnt want to include the HD DVD drive so as not to limit the users experience."

24.10.2007Windows data copy limits exposed, sort of
Is there a limit how many files you can copy in one step? And if so, where is this limit? A post in the forums of a popular hardware site provides
more clues where this limit may be and which hardware is affected.
We found this information earlier this week in a
post on Aces Hardware
where a user reported his findings. Hirschma writes that he was unable to copy large numbers of files under certain Windows/hardware environments and
was confronted with an error 1450, causing an instability and requiring a system reboot. Depending on the Windows versions, he discovered varying
limits: 760,000 in Windows XP 32-bit and about 2.7 million in Server 2003.
