We have been working on the new version of Remote Control LAN edition for quite some time.

Over a year in fact.

For those who have been waiting...it will be worth it.

Before talking about some of the cool features I want to let you know that all current customers will get a free upgrade. This is a big deal. Why? Because when we do release 3.0 we will be raising the price. In addition we may be changing the way we license the product (Possibly per client instead of per administrator). So if you buy now, you will be getting 3.0 for a lot less.

The biggest change will be Vista, and 64 bit support. This sounds so simple on the surface, but making our product compatible with Vista has been one of the most challenging programing projects we have ever faced.

I don't want to get too technical, but lets take an example...

To grab changes on the screen we need a special DLL called a 'hook'. This hook DLL allows the agent to see any graphical changes, and then send them back to the client. To make all of this...

Today, you can now download Windows Vista SP1 via Windows Update.  For those of you eager to receive the benefits of Windows Vista SP1, you can now do so.  We've seen quite a bit of questions in our comments so we want to communicate as much as possible surrounding Windows Vista SP1 and today's release to Windows Update as we can.

For those of you happy to wait, sit tight because SP1 will start downloading to PCs automatically beginning in mid-April (remember, this happens only if you have your Windows Update configured to automatically download updates and SP1 will automatically download but not automatically install).  But if you want to get the benefit of a year's worth of improvements right now, go check Windows Update today (hit the Start Menu, All Programs, and select Windows Update).

If in running Windows Update you do not see Windows Vista SP1 listed, there are a number of good reasons for this (eight, in fact -- see the whole list).  Below are a few of the most common reasons why you might not see SP1 on Windows Update:

When using MS Outlook, Outlook Express and Outlook Web Access on Internet Explorer you can quickly look up names in your contacts and address books with a keyboard shortcut.

Let us assume you are looking for a ‘Thomas Jones’, you can type ‘tho jo’ in the ‘To..’ field of a new email and hold down the Alt key and press K. Your email program will then either put the right address into the ‘To..’ field or it will present you with a list of matches, for example, there may be a ‘Thomas Johnson’ in your address book too, in which case both will be listed. Highlight the one you want in the list and click ‘OK’.

As I mentioned, this shortcut works on Outlook Web Access if you access it using Internet Explorer. In order to see the list of matching names you may have to disable pop-ups for that site. To do so click on the yellow bar at the top of the new email page if it appears and set IE to always allow pop-ups from that page.

If you open Outlook Web Access…
