Put Windows Live on your Windows Mobile phone

Windows Live for Windows Mobile is now available to download for your Windows Mobile phone. Windows Live for Windows Mobile lets Windows Mobile users sync their email from Windows Live Hotmail as well as their Windows Live Contacts.

To download, just head on over to this URL on your Windows Mobile phone:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/mobile/wl/download-en-us.mspx

Just download the .cab file for the version of Windows Mobile you are running (Standard or Professional). Windows Live for Windows Mobile works on phones running both Windows Mobile and Windows Mobile 6 (and 6.1).

Let me explain how I use Windows Live for Windows Mobile today on my BlackJack II. Because Windows Live for Windows Mobile syncs up my Windows Live Contacts - I encourage many of my contacts to edit their profiles and make sure their email addresses and phone numbers are correct. When their Windows Live Contact is synced to my phone - their name appears under my Contacts on my Windows Mobile phone (Windows Mobile has a centralized "contact directory").

Block XP SP3 - Stop the madness

If you have not heard about it already, many people are having big problems with Windows XP SP3.

I just want to remind everyone that we have had a tool out since January that will delay the automatic install of SP3 for 12 months.

You have 4 options for preventing the automatic install of SP3:

1. Download our Network Administrator to deploy the change across your network.

Service Pack XP 3 Network Administrator

or

2. Download and use the free GUI tool we have to make the change on a single system

Service Pack 3 Blocker

or

3. Download and use the free command line tools from MS

or

4. Update the registry manually. To do this you simply need to go to this key:

HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate

Create a new DWORD value named DoNotAllowSP and set it to 1 (To disable the SP install), or 0 (To allow the SP install)

One final reminder - all of these blocking options are only valid for 12 months following...
