Когда Vista был выпущен хор жалоб и критицизмов быстро вырос от низкого жужжания к почти deafening рыку. Немного больше чем неделя с Apple выпустило леопарда и то низкое жужжание discontent уже было усилено к пункту где ™s€ itâ начиная ушибить мои уши.

Для пользователей, будьте ими в доме или в корпоративных окружающих средах, дорога к Windows 7 (7) водит больше или к Windows Vista. Но для Microsoft, будет вс по-разному курс altogether.

Факт дела что, насколько усилия развития, Vista обернутый вверх по главе. Компания Redmond уже начинала двигать вперед. Of course тот Microsoft слишком будет иметь посреднические этапы на своей дороге к Windows 7.

Many times I need to run away from my computer quickly…but I do not want to leave my computer unlocked.

So, yes, I am extremely lazy, well clumsy too. A few times when I am in a rush to CTRL-ALT-DEL I have knocked an entire bottle of water on to my keyboard.

I know that windows has a shortcut for locking the computer. It shows up on the start menu when you remote desktop into a Windows XP machine. See the Windows Security Icon - That locks it.

Did some Google searching, and yes it is easy to create your own.

Right click on the desktop and Click on New, then Shortcut.

For the location, type this:

%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll LockWorkStation

Click next, then give it a descriptive name like “Lock Workstation” and then click finish.

Now you have an icon to lock your computer on your desktop. You can do it without lifting two fingers (You still need one :) )

One of the most frustrating moments of my morning is getting to work and sitting there for 10 minutes while my computer boots up. Most mornings, I can get a cup of coffee and visit coworkers while my computer starts and Outlook, IE, and the other applications I use regularly open. My wait time is even more frustrating when I have an early meeting and need a document, but spend the first half of the meeting waiting for my computer to start.

One way I’ve learned to save time in the morning is to put my PC into hibernation mode in the evening. By putting my PC into hibernation mode, all the applications and documents I had open
will be exactly the same as they were when I left the previous evening. Hibernate saves an image of your desktop with all open files and documents, and then it powers down your computer. (more…)

The Microsoft Security Bulletin Advance Notification for November 2007 just came out and Vista not be receiving any updates. Windows Server 2003 will be getting an ‘Important’ update, and Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 will both be receiving a ‘Critical’ update.

Internet Explorer and Firefox are in a constant race for both the lion’s share of the browser market and for the top dog position when it comes down to which of the two products is more locked down from a security perspective. In terms of audience Internet Explorer has little contest from Firefox, although the open source browser has increased substantially its foothold on the market growing its share to approximately 15% at the end of October 2007, according to data from Net Applications. In contrast, IE accounts for the largest install base with 78%.

Security is a different matter altogether and a tad more difficult to measure up. The fact of
the matter is that the end goal of delivering top user protection is a combination of code quality and lack of vulnerabilities in the default design, along with an absent threat environment. (more…)
