La idea básica: ¿Qué si podría buscar mi propia computadora tan fácilmente como puedo buscar la tela? Entonces podría encontrar un email o un documento de la palabra, incluso un documento del pdf, o un Web page anterior-visto, o todos los ésos en mi propia computadora en un inmediato, justo incorporando algunas palabras del texto que pienso pudieron estar en el documento o en su nombre.

Entre Tablero del escritorio de Google (GD). Descubrí esto un año o dos hace, cuando funcionaba Windows XP, y pensado le eran más pulidos que el pan rebanado. Bien, mejore casi, y ciertamente que cualquier cosa que Microsoft ofreció. No trabajó exactamente derecho - yo chascaría a veces encendido un resultado y nada subiría - pero por lo menos se parecía encontrar todo.

Excepto los documentos de WordPerfect. Utilizo WordPerfect y lo prefiero ciertamente al Microsoft Word, pero los documentos tienen al parecer un formato único y no son puestos en un índice correctamente por GD o por el indexing software de Vista de Microsoft. Ninguna sorpresa que Microsoft omitiría deliberadamente WordPerfect, porque han estado intentando enterrarlo con la palabra por años (con éxito obvio),…

A new boot record rootkit in the wild has the potential to bring Windows Vista down to its knees. Despite having applauded Windows Vista throughout 2007 as the most secure Windows operating system on the market, the latest Microsoft client still has some problems involving write-access to raw disk sectors. In this context, in early January 2008, GMER revealed that at the end of 2007 a new stealth MBR rootkit was detected in the wild, which could compromise Windows Vista.

“Unfortunately, all the Windows NT family (including VISTA) still have the same security flaw MBR can be modified from usermode. Nevertheless, MS blocked write-access to disk sectors from userland code on VISTA after the pagefile attack, however, the first sectors of disk are still unprotected”, the GMER member explained. “At the end of 2007 stealth MBR rootkit was discovered by MR Team members and it looks like this way of affecting NT systems could be more common in near future if MBR stays unprotected.” (more…)

If like me you are a Firefox fan you might be interested in trying a Theme called miniFox. The idea is it shrinks everything it can, including the Tool, Title bar and menus, as small as they will go, and still remain useable, freeing up more space for web pages. It’s quick and easy to install, and of course, like all of the best things in life, it is absolutely free, and if you don’t like it, just go to Tools > Add Ons and select the Themes tab.

As you undoubtedly know by now, Windows Vista brought to the table DirectX 10. Microsoft failed to make DirectX 10 available for Windows XP, arguing that it would have to introduce extensive changes to the core of the operating system, in order to accommodate the new graphics technology. In this context, Vista became the vessel for DirectX 10, because despite various promises from third-parties to artificially backport DirectX 10 for Windows XP, the latest Windows client remains the sole way to access the superset of DirectX 9.x.

Microsoft touted a healthy increase in gaming and multimedia quality with DirectX 10 as an integer part of Vista’s architecture, but with the vast majority of users still running Windows XP, digital content is largely focused on Vista’s predecessor. The Redmond company was in fact
criticized by both content producers and end users for its decision to make DirectX 10 Vista exclusive, but the barrage of fire failed to deter Microsoft from its tracks. Moreover, in the first quarter of this year, Windows Vista SP1 will deliver DirectX 10.1. (more…)
