  1. i know i tunes is free and it falls under the catagory of [Audio Players]

    iTunes is something that everyone knows about. The main reason for this list is to provide some alternatives to the 'well known software'.

    However, I want to thank everyone for the submissions. Some will be added, some will not. However, there will be no confirmation (post) by me nor DigeratiPrime about a user's submission. Mainly to prevent useless posts.

    Feel free to submit as many applications as you want. After all, the list is made by all of you.

    Thank you all.

  2. What exactly are you trying to do? Copy-Paste the necessary files from one installation to a hard drive and boot from it?

    It will not work.

    If you are looking for a minimal install possible, nLite *is* the way to go.

  3. Hi. I noticed you said that the router has WAP enabled.

    WAP = Wireless Access Point (not encryption)

    What is encription is WEP or WPA. Your must have one of these 2 enabled so that the traffic between clients and the Wireless Access Point is encrypted.

    You said login. Do you use your job account to login? Do you know if the WAP is forwarding request (logins) to a centralized server (RADIUS or other)? This is really important to know, because if you are using some kind of centralized access server, you maybe getting policies that disconnect you after X time.

    As for the bad transmission rates ... How far away are you from the WAP or a signal repeater?

  4. I share Tarun's opinion. My machines are up to the job (except one old box I run Linux), still, I will not be upgrading to Vista as soon as it comes out.

    I will definatly try it, however, it will be on a test machine. My main computers will all run XP (until 2008 at least).

    If you are definitely going to try it, won't you have to BUY it? :o

    Actually, no. I will not buy it. I'll wait for a BETA release close to the FINAL (since I haven't yet tested it. I'm saving it for a BETA more close to final).

  6. The reason I said it should not be a startup program is because *it does* restart in safe mode ...

    Under the safe mode if i use the computer(not leaving it idle) it doesnt reboot at all, but it reboots when it is idle.

    ... But only when the computer is in idle.

  7. *WEIRD*!

    The first thing that comes to mind is hardware, PSU to be more precise.

    Since there is no exact time for this to happen, I would not think about viruses or any malware.

    Do you have the opportunity of testing it with another PSU?

    You can also check MSconfig to see whats starting with Windows (However, I doubt that this is the problem).

  8. You dont have to disable everything without knowing what it does. The list is just for you to have an idea of what can be done, if you'r uncertain if you should disable a service or not, just Google for it and read what it does, then you decide if you can disable or not.

    As for the RPC, you are right. It is a very important service that will cause some 'damage' if it is disabled.

    The Error Reporting Service is for the Pop-Up you get when an error occurs (the application crashes). I you disabled the service, you will not be asked to send information to Microsoft again (no more Pop-Up).

  9. I posted this Excel document on nLite forum for a person that wanted to clean up some services. Check it out.

    This settings are used at my machines, therefor, they may not work properly on your computer. Be carefull using it (even if you disable 1 that you need, you can still change it back).

  10. I wanted to post this yesterday, however, since this was on the first page of Slashdot, I didn't expect it up and running today. Posting something there is just like asking for a DDoS.

    New screenshots of Windows Vista are available here.

    Microsoft released a new build of Windows Vista to beta testers. Flexbeta has got some screenshots. Included in this build is an extensive collection of drivers and the exclusive sidebar. Glass is also a feature that we all have come to respect and love, along with the 3D flip. The official version number is 6.0 Version 5342.winmain_idx04.060321-1730. Internet Explorer 7.0 is build Version 7.0.5342.2. Nice features include a new 'Paint' and needed redesigned network center.

    If you ask me ... to many eye candy!! Not really my thing .. Still, pretty nice!

  11. Buddy, you really need to provide more information about you'r problem, otherwise no one will be able to help you.

    Next time please choose a more apropriated topic title.

    As for your problem,

    A - When you try to make changes on the TCP/IP Properties you get a BSOD?

    B - What exactly is happening on your network so it doesnt work properly?

    What do you use your NIC for? Connection to a modem for Internet access or just use it for LAN?

    Take care and hope to hear back from you soon.

  12. Monitoring exactly what on the Network? Ethereal is a very good, and powefull application. It will work as a sniffer and let you analyze traffic on your network.

    A good vunerability scanner is Nessus, for Unix based OS only, still I would recommended if a scanner is what you are looking for.

    There are some good links on the post jftuga posted ... Check them out, if you need any help just let us know.

  13. You should try it. I have been reading the page I gave you, and that application does support volume control. From what I could understand, all you need to do is install an addtional plugin.

    Volume Control

    This add-in allows you to instantly modify the audio volume. Default configuration:

    * Win - Page Up: volume up

    * Win - Page Down: volume down

    * Win - End: toggle mute on / off

    Tips:

    * Hold the Windows key down, while repeatedly tapping the page up or down key.

    * You can reposition the volume control by dragging it around with the mouse.

    * You can customize the volume control by right clicking it (size, color, opaciy, date, etc.)

    I recommend going with it.

  14. There is one application that is free and open source. It is used to make Hotkeys, however, I do not know if it is able to control Volume. Still, it is a very good and usefull application.

    Give it a try.
