Wir vorher bedeckt die abschließende Freisetzung von dem IIS FastCGI Modul, gemeinsam entwickelt zwischen Microsoft und Zend… Aber gerade diese Woche, Microsoft (MSFT: $33.76 -0.50%) verkündet die Verwendbarkeit von RTM vom IIS FastCGI Modul.

So ist was los? Wir haben die gegenwärtige Freigabe downloadet (die übrigens ist nicht kompatibel mit dem alten, müssen Sie uninstall dann die neue Version anbringen) und überprüften Versionsnummerauf \ Windows \ System32 \ inetsrv \ fcgiext.dll - es kam heraus, 6.1.36.1 zu sein.

Vor durch Kontrast die Version, die, wir einem Monat (der scheint betitelt worden zu sein der auf den Markt kommen, Freigabe), wurden überprüft und gefunden, um 7.0.6001.16606 zu sein downloadeten und anbrachten.

Offensichtlich verwendete die auf den Markt kommen Freigabe die Numerierung von den Freigaben des Microsoft Windows-Bedieners 2008, aber sie hat uns verwirrt.

During my usual surfing, I came across a cool free application that enables a 4 way display, like Ubuntu’s cube display, that let’s you use up to four virtual desktop for a more productive day of computing and such. I know this is not a tweak, but it’s so cool I immediately downloaded it and tried it. It’s fun, and also helps me get the most real-estate my desktop and monitor can cramp in, as my dual display configuration is getting a bit crowded. I tried experimenting on this, and yes it did enabled me to open more applications that I can handle in a day, Plus it’s cool to look at and gives me calmness.
Go to this website check it out, I’m sure you’ll like it. get Shock 4way

Shock 4Way 3D provides 4 virtual screens. It´s especially useful for notebook users and those with small monitors. This version is the OpenGL edition.

Congratulations are in order for Microsoft’s IIS development team - today they’ve just announced the public availability of the final version of the IIS-FastCGI ISAPI Extension - a long-awaited and much-improved way of running just about any open-source scripting engine on IIS, safely and quickly.

This FastCGI module for IIS 5.1, 6, and 7 (with Windows Vista and Server 2008) have been in the works for quite a while now, and we’ve been using them since the first beta release - they’re good. While the biggest benefit will be seen in using FastCGI w/ IIS7 to take advantage of the new kernel-mode caching, it’s still a huge improvement over the old way of running scripting engines for languages like PHP on Windows.

The Problem: Most open-source scripting engines like PHP and Ruby on Rails were initially developed on/for the *nix world. On Unix-based platforms, the easiest way of creating multi-threaded applications is just to run the same app twice or more (The CGI model). On Windows, that doesn’t work out so well, because it takes a lot more resources to create another process. So these engines released Windows-specific single-process multi-threaded engines; the only problem was, they weren’t stable. Too many race conditions in some very non-thread-safe code wreaked havoc on many Windows systems, with the PHP developers themselves giving “Stability on IIS” the lowest level of concern.

Following our coverage of the Windows XP SP3 beta leak almost a month ago in August, here’s some more info on the official beta, which just had its first authorized distributable released earlier today. Say hello to Windows XP SP3, build 3205!

While the newly-released build and the one leaked a month ago (Build 3180) may share the same name, we can exclusively reveal that they are not identical releases. This release, also shipped as windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu.exe, is 334.2 megabytes and has been made available to tier-one Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista SP1 beta testers. Hashes are as follows:

CRC: 56e08837
MD5: c8c24ec004332198c47b9ac2b3d400f7

Along with the standalone installer redistributables (in English, Japanese, and German), Microsoft also provided the usual release notes and a list of all the hotfixes included in this release. Contrary to popular belief, Windows XP SP3 does ship with all-new features - not just patches and hotfixes, most of them backported from Windows Vista:

Steve Reynolds, program manager of the Internet Explorer development team, has just announced an “update” of sorts to Internet Explorer 7 a year or so after its original release in 2006. Never mind the fact that we were promised regular updates and that “Internet Explorer 7 won’t be like IE6″ with regards to lack of new features and updates, what’s up with the list of the things that have changed with this new version!? Have a look for yourself at the “changelog:”

1. No need for WGA verification in order to get Internet Explorer 7
2. The menu bar is now visible by default.
3. The Internet Explorer 7 online tour has updated how-to’s. Also, the “first-run� experience includes a new overview.
4. We’ve included a new MSI installer that simplifies deployment for IT administrators in enterprises. Learn more about it here.

Interesting… Here’s our take on these “updates”

1. It really shouldn’t have required WGA in the first place - Microsoft (for some odd reason) guarantees users of pirated versions of Windows “immediate” access to any security-related patches, upgrades, and hotfixes. Doesn’t Microsoft tout Internet Explorer 7 as a security-prioritized upgrade?
2. Noooo! We love the hidden menu bar! It’s clean, it’s clutter-free, and it gives IE7 a great look. Obviously the reason they’ve put it back is that users had trouble getting the menu to show (hint: press `alt` to make it appear), but who actually uses the menu bar anyway?! At least make it a first-run option… please? Sure, you can make it hidden again by flicking a switch in the options panel, but that’s just so wrong on so many levels…
3. Not exactly what we’d call an upgrade to Internet Explorer itself so much as it is an improvement to the external documentation. It’s just a file hosted on MS servers that users can opt to view.
4. Nothing more than an upgrade to the packaging/deployment for Internet Explorer 7, albeit a most-welcome one for sysadmins and software integrators everywhere.
