Comcast rolls out domain "helper" service, with adverts

On Tuesday, internet provider Comcast announced it would be rolling out it's "Domain Helper" nationally, having trialled it before and reported great market success. The "Domain Helper" is aimed at assisting users who have mistyped website addresses by redirecting them to an "easy-to-use page with suggestions and links." That's how Comcast have described their latest service anyway. But what Comcast describe as a "Domain Helper" has been referred to as DNS hijacking by others. Like many ISPs, Comcast now redirects their customers to a search page, but what they didn't mention in their blog post were the adverts that are on the page too, leading some customers to be less than happy with the new service.

TweakVI v1.0 build 1014 for Windows Vista released

Optimize and tweak Windows Vista with TweakVI v1.0 ('Basic' edition is freeware)

Totalidea Software has released TweakVI, an application that adds up to 26 time-saving productivity improvements to Windows Vista. In addition to tuning Windows Vista to run faster, TweakVI's easy-to-use functions let you tailor the Windows interface to meet your personal needs. A registry cleaner cleans up your systems registry, and the option to create a 256MB RAM drive grants the fastest access to files and folders.

TweakVI v1.0 gives you instant access to hidden Windows XP settings, including ones that are hard to change. You can make the Windows Vista fade in and out, tweak lots of desktop settings, customize the Start menu, and enable several hidden performance options. With the Ultimate version of TweakVI an auto-system-optimizing feature has been included to optimize Microsoft's new Operating system with a click of the mouse only.

For the new Windows Vista 'User Account Control' (UAC) TweakVI v1.0 includes several tweaks options to configre this Vista security feature. TweakVI v1.0 also manages Windows Vista system updates: it detects available updates, installs them and removes backups of installed updates for more hard drive space.

TweakVI v1.0 lets you lock applications so others cannot run them. Whether you want to keep your children from accidentally destroying your business files, or you have colleagues or employees who shouldn't be using certain programs on your computer, Tweak-VI v1.0 locks people out of a master list of applications that you can easily maintain. In addition to locking applications, TweakVI v1.0 also lets you hide and lock folders so they cannot be accessed by other people or programs.

TweakVI v1.0 gives you control over what programs are launched when you start your computer. In addition to letting you easily manage the programs in your Start menu, the program also gives you access to programs that are launched because of obscure entries in the Windows Vista Registry. TweakVI v1.0 lets you remove those annoying programs that you've never wanted running in the background. With a single mouse click, you can optimize the physical memory in your computer. Each program that you run uses computer memory. When you close a program, often it leaves code fragments in memory and, over time, your Windows session runs slower and slower. TweakVI v1.0 lets you clean out these leftovers so your system will run more quickly and efficiently. For more system performance, TweakVI v1.0 allows to set up multiple pagefiles and virtual drives.

TweakVI v1.0 optimizes your Internet connection speed. Its built-in table of the most popular Internet Service Providers' configurations contains information that lets you increase throughput, whether you're using a dial-up connection or a faster broadband connection. Additionally TweakVI includes a huge list of tweaks and restrictions for Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, as well as an auto optimization feature for Firefox v1 and v2.

TweakVI v1.0 currently comes with an English interface; more languages will be supported soon. The program lets you tweak the new Windows Vista Sidebar, restrict access to the taskbar, sidebar and several other Windows Vista feactures, rename multiple files with a single mouse click, generate truly random passwords as well as pronounceable passwords, destroy sensitive files without leaving a trace, find and remove unnecessary files from your hard drive, and perform many other tweaks and optimizations.

TweakVI v1.0 includes a Windows Vista auto-logon feature, Outlook 2002, 2003 and 2007 security tweaks, and a number of Windows Vista performance and user interface tweaks. Additionally it comes with a DiscDrive Doctor, and lots of other useful features for the user's daily work with Windows Vista.

TweakVI v1.0 is available in three different editions: the free 'Basic Edition' , which contains all the basic tweaking features for standard system tweaking, the 'Premium Edition', which gives you access to much more tweaking and system optimization features, and the 'Ultimate Edition', for complete control on Windows Vista, with all plugins currently available for TweakVI. The TweakVI 'Basic' Edition is available without charge, the 'Premium' Edition costs US$ 29.95, and the 'Ultimate' Edition costs US$ 39.95.

vLite v1.1.5 Beta

Windows Vista from Microsoft takes a lot of resources, we all know that. So here is the tool for easy removal of unwanted components and bootable ISO creation in order to make Vista run faster and to your liking. This tool doesn't use any kind of hacking, all files and registry entries are in their original form and protected as they would be if you install the full version only without the components you select for the removal.



It configures the installation directly, before the installation, meaning you'll have to remake the ISO and reinstall it. This method is much cleaner, not to mention easier and more logical than doing it after installation on every reinstall.

How Windows Vista Handles Wireless Networking

Each new version of Windows has made significant improvements in the operating system's networking capabilities. Back in the days of Windows 95 and Windows 98, networking was a complicated affair for technical experts only; you could set up and configure a network from within Windows, but it took a lot of work. Things got much better with Windows XP, where networking became more or less a plug-and-play operationalbeit one that required a lot of user interaction and didn't always work as promised.



With Windows Vista, things again have changed for the better. Microsoft completely rewrote the networking stack in Vista, which means that networking not only is more reliable, it's also much easier to set up. In fact, in most instances you don't have to do much setup at all; Windows Vista recognizes your network and equipment, and automatically configures the system as necessary. (At least theoretically; networking in Vista can still be counterintuitive at times, and occasionally things don't work quite as promised.)



This is good news if you're setting up a new network for your Vista-based computersbut also useful if you're connecting a Vista PC to an existing network or Wi-Fi hot spot.

Something New when Uninstalling Drivers and Devices on Windows Vista

Chris Mu: Today, I'd like to share a background story about a KB article that describe a interesting behavior in Windows Vista that is different with previous OS. Maybe it is not the most important or highest impacted issue occurs in Windows Vista, but I think it will impact some of you when you are troubleshooting for your firendes/family... OK, let go through this issue.



This issue is about re-install network adapter in Windows Vista and the KB article for this issue will be KB945399 and published in a few days. The issue can be reproduced in many computer models and you will encounter it when you uninstall a network adapter device using Device Manager. Maybe you have to troubleshoot whether the network adapter driver installed is right to troubleshoot OS network issue. Therefore, after uninstall the adapter, you may try to install another driver for the device ... Everything works fine in Windows XP/Server 2003 and so on. However, when you try to do same action in Windows Vista, the popular OS nowadays, you will see soon after the uninstall process completes, PnP detects the network adapter as a new device and automatically installs the device and drivers. Instead, in Windows XP, only after you click to scan hardware change, the PnP will detect the network adapter and install the driver.
