Vista Network Helper v1.5
Thanks to Steve Jobs for this post in his blog. Steve Jobs wrote: I’m a laptop user and connect frequently to new or different networks (wlan or lan) and I often come across the problem to connect to the internet or networks. So I decided to make my own batch file to change the network settings to solve the issue.

24.11.2006Comcast 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.

06.11.2007First Silverlight v1.0 Service Release is Live
Mike Harsh: In
the midst of all the work our team has been cranking on for Silverlight v1.1 (controls, databinding, layout, templates, styling and a package based
app model, phew!), we've also been working with customers to address the top set of issues folks have hit with Silverlight v1.0. Today we're happy
to be releasing an update to address many of these issues. The first Silverlight v1.0 service release is now live and includes the following
improvements and fixes:
- Improved media performance and stability, especially for full-screen video. This includes improving A/V
sync, which provides a better experience on lower-end machines.
- HTTP redirection now works for images and other media.
-
Improved support for font managers & Mac Office 2008 fonts.
- Streaming video through proxied network connections only worked through port
80. Silverlight now respects the proxy port settings.
- Allowing access to all content embedded in .zip files with a non-.zip extension.
- Support for logging with Windows Media Services
- Loading XAML from a script tag will now work on all supported browsers.
The first bullet is the big ticket item. It encompasses 4 sizable perf improvements that really make video in Silverlight hum. This
update will be rolled out to all users running Silverlight v1.0 via the auto-updater built into the plug-in. If youre impatient and want to get the
update sooner, you can get it from the
Silverlight installation
page.

05.12.2007TweakVI 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.

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.

12.09.2007How 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.

31.10.2008Something 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.
