Firefox 3 Beta 3 Coming on February 4

February 2nd, 2008

Firefox has announced that it will release the new Beta 3 version of Firefox 3 this coming Monday. Apparently there are two new features that will be included in this release. The first feature is a new windows theme for Firefox that has been under development for quite some time now. Vista users however will not be seeing any new Vista theme because the work hasn’t been completed yet on a Vista-specific theme. For the time being, Vista users will be using the same XP theme for their Firefox. The second feature is really worth talking about though. It is an addition to the Add-ons Manager window. Users will now be able to search for add-ons and download and install them through the add-ons manager. This will surely make it easier and faster to download add-ons when you need them. This newly added feature will also direct the new users of Firefox towards using add-ons. You can see the actual screenshot of these new features below. Screenshot taken from Cybernet.

1. TVU Player

tvuplayer-thumbnail.jpgTVU Player is my favorite out of all the applications because it is a no-hassle program which is backed up with great channels that you can enjoy at rather good quality. The player uses p2p to broadcast the channels so if more users are watching a certain channel then it will work very nicely. Even I had no problems with the buffering, and » Read more: 5 Best Applications to Watch Free Live TV on Your PC

Hide or Password Protect your files and folders

November 18th, 2007

Today, I will be posting on a nice little utility program that will more then likely interest most of you. The ability to hide or password protect a file or folder is something not found in the windows default features. But it is one of the more useful feature which many people will want to have. This is a proper application that hides the folders, not just have a blank file name(using ALT+0160 trick) with no icon and making it invisible but accessible :) . That trick is easily foiled if you refresh the folder, that hidden file or folder will become visible for a millisecond or two and will be noticed by the user. But with this piece of software you wont need to use that trick anymore! :-)

Hide Files and Folders is a great easy-to-use password-protected security utility working at Windows kernel level that you can use to password-protect certain files and folders, or to hide them securely from viewing and searching just with a click of mouse. Upon accessing any protected file or folder, a dialog box querying password appears on the screen. If a valid password is entered, the user gets access to the file or folder, otherwise an error message appears. Hide Files and Folders does not modify your media: in protecting your files or folders, it just uses a high-reliability VXD driver working at Windows kernel level. This guarantees that Hide Files and Folders will never lose your data, as may happen if you use other file and folder protecting software. Due to unique technology, the program also lets you protect system files and folders such as the Windows System, Registry and Swap files. Go ahead! Download the program right now! You will find it very easy to use.

This program is not only able to hide any specified file, but it is also able to password-protect it, or make it read-only so that it is not editable. So you can select whichever method of protection you desire of. So download this program now. You can download this program by clicking here! Enjoy the application, and post here if you have any questions or comments.

Does it work over a peer to peer Microsoft network?
