New Version Of 7-Zip Released
Aug 29, 2007
1) Default mode: 7-Zip uses UTF-8, if the local code page doesn't contain required symbols.
2) -mcu switch: 7-Zip uses UTF-8, if there are non-ASCII symbols.
3) -mcl switch: 7-Zip uses local code page. Now it's possible to store file reation time in 7z and ZIP archives (-mtc switch). 7-Zip now can unpack multivolume RAR archives created with "old style volume names" scheme and names *.001, *.002, ... Now it's possible to use -mSW- and -mSW+ switches instead of -mSW=off and -mSW=on Some bugs were fixed. New localizations: Punjabi (Indian), Pashto.

If I get the OEM version, I know that a restriction in the license means it cannot be transferred to another computer. I need to get clarification on the following:
1) What happens if my computer crashes and I am told I have to reformat the hard drive and re-install Windows? Am I forced to buy a new license?
2) What if I want to have a backup hard drive, or upgrade my existing hard drive to a bigger one? If it's the same computer and only the hard drive is upgraded or a second one added, does that mandate a new license?

As expected, Microsoft Monday released Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) Release Candidate 1 (RC1) to the public. You can grab the download from the Microsoft Download Center: for Vista and Server 2008 32-bit, for Vista and Server 2008 64-bit, for XP 32-bit, for Server 2003 SP2 32-bit, and for Server 2003 SP2 64-bit and XP 64-bit. At time of publishing, the release notes have not yet been updated (but should be soon), though the Technology Overview for Developers is available. Please note that this build is newer than the one in Windows 7 build 7000 and cannot be installed over top of that version of IE8. Testers using Windows 7 will have to wait for a new build of the operating system.
Microsoft already gave testers an RC1 build (8.0.6001.18343) last month and then updated the build number 8.0.6001.18344 that same week, due to an out-of-band security update for the browser. The software giant gave the public IE8 Beta 2 in August 2008 and Beta 1 in March 2008. IE8 RC1 released to the public - Ars Technica

Just thought I’d drop in and let everyone know that the official images of the new Windows 7 packaging are out. Check them out here at the Windows 7 Team blog: Windows 7 Team Blog - The Windows Blog. I’m biased, but I like them. Simple, clean, and environmentally friendly – can’t beat that. Drop your comments in the thread.

With all the hoopla about SP2 for Vista, I guess no one noticed that Microsoft has released SP2 for Microsoft Office 2007 through Windows Update… Haven't had a chance to install yet as I'm in the niddle of working on some office apps at the moment, so..

I upgraded my pc and bought Windows Vista ultimate 64bit, and i would like to install Windows vista Business 64bit. How can i do it? I took ultimate because it was the only version i could find (in my area anyway) that had a 64bit version in the box. But i don't want the media center, the high definition, and all the multimedia stuff. All of these ultimate "extras" are of no use whatsover to me. So my question is basically can i install the Business version with my ultimate key ? (is it "downwards" compatible in a way ?). I don't understand why ultimate is the only one with 64bit in the box. It doesn't make sense to me. It would have been much more logical for the Business version to be the one with 64bit in the box.

The final build of Internet Explorer 8 has been released in 25 languages. You can also grab the download directly from these links: Windows XP 32-bit (16.1 MB), Windows XP 64-bit (32.3 MB), Windows Server 2003 32-bit (16.0 MB), Windows Server 2003 64-bit (32.3 MB), Windows Vista 32-bit (13.2 MB), Windows Vista 64-bit (24.3 MB), Windows Server 2008 32-bit (13.2 MB), and Windows Server 2008 64-bit (24.3 MB).
The public Windows 7 beta is not being updated, and although Microsoft released an update for IE8 for Windows 7 in February, the next update is not likely to arrive until the Windows 7 Release Candidate next month. For everyone else, in the coming weeks Microsoft will put IE8 out as an optional download on Windows Update and then later roll it out to users via Automatic Updates. A quick note to all the IT administrators out there reading this post: the IE8 blocker toolkit is already available, so make sure you get acquainted with it if you're planning on avoiding IE8 when it's released via Microsoft's update channels.

I purchased a new PC in early 2007 that came with XP. A month or so later I received the Vista upgrade CD which I have never installed. I intend to buy Windows 7 when it becomes available and wish to minimize my system upgrade problems as much as possible. Based on my understanding I would have to do a complete harddrive erase to install Win 7 and then reinstall all my applications. If possible and practical I'd like to upgrade XP to Vista and then Vista to Windows 7. My question am I likely to have problems going from a current up to date version of XP to a 2+ year old version of Vista which would require many updates to bring up to the current level?.

I have an Acer Desk top with AMD Phenom 9100e quad processors currently running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Would I see an increase in performance if I installed the 64 bit version? The System has 4 GB of ram and NVIDIA 9200 Graphics card. I do realise that I will have to do a clean install if I go down this route

Due to a very long and unsuccessful attempt to get Office Enterprise to work properly on a new ACER (VISTA Home Premium) computer that came c/w a pre-installed trial version of Office 2007 as per Office technical support I need to do a clean install of VISTA. My problem is that the only option I have is to re-install the ACER factory load c/w the trial version and all of the other useless stuff. I am contemplating buying either a full or oem version of VISTA Home Premium, Format C, get rid of the hidden partition and start from scratch. What is the difference between oem and full other than the price.. Advice will be appreciated, this is my fourth computer but I have never needed to do anything this drastic before.

I started with the evaluation version given at a show. Purchased a full install (OEM) version, did upgrade. After installing service pack 1 all seemed well. Bottom right of screen still says evaluation copy and a prompt comes up saying times almost up get a real version. Changed the product key multiple times and it keeps kicking back.

If There Is No V. Next 2 The Build 6001, Then You Are Running Windows Vista SP1 RTM (RTM = Which Stands 4 Release To Manufacturing = Gold Or Final Release).

Did something happen with the WMP 11? I was looking at some MP3s on Amazon today. Downloaded 1 and it would not play on the WMP. I keep getting a message about dll has a version ( bunch of numbers) were more( numbers) was expected. WMP is not installed correctly and must be re installed. do you want to install player from MS site.
I tried several times and it just bounces me from one place to another on their site. I tried to delete WMP from PC thinking I could re load it, and in the control panel for doing so it's as if it does not even exist. Is it hidden somewhere? I finally tried loading a Real player and it works fine. Just wonder what the hell has happened to the WMP. Vista Home Premium with all the up dates if it matters.

I purchased a new Dell laptop this past Spring and opted for 64-bit Vista Home Premium. I had so many problems with applications (Dreamweaver CS3 and Ulead PhotoImpact 13 as two examples) not running properly that I got 32-bit Vista from Dell and started over. I now need to purchase another laptop and am finding most are being sold with 64-bit Windows with no apparent option, at least from HP and Dell, to order 32-bit instead. Other than being able to address more RAM, what is the big attraction of the 64-bit version that I'm missing?

If the 32-bit version comes pre-installed in my laptop, am I entitled to a copy of the 64-bit version? The system resources can adaquately run the 64-bit version. I understand that it is not recomended to switch to the 64-bit version, but I am wondering if I would be entitled to the other version. On the Microsoft website, it states that the 64-bit version is availale is Vista was purchased as a "retail, packaged product." Does that not include pre-installed versions of Vista?

I know how to use a Windows 7 DVD to delete or alter the files so I can use the DVD (or Flash drive) to re-install or repair Windows 7 machines, but I am running into more Vista machines. I have a Vista Ultimate DVD I purchased. I would like to simply modify the files so I can re-install or repair Vista machines. (any version) How is this done? It must be possible. With Windows 7 it's simple, just delete the ie.cfg file, but I cannot seem to figure it out with Vista.

I have just installed an update that included the latest version of Live Mail and am absolutely amazed at the result. Surely they are kidding? In newsgroups now for some reason, new items have only the author (From) field highlighted with bold text and the subject and other fields just in normal text. The result is that when you receive new items in watched threads, you cannot see which thread it is that has the new items unless you go through and expand each one manually! Surely this is a bug in my setup and can't really be like this?
