It appears IE7 has another vulnerability in the browser.
“In other words, the entire security model of the browser collapses like a house of cards and renders you vulnerable to a plethora of nasty attacks,” Zalewski warns, noting that local system compromise is also possible.
In the article, Zalewski shares exactly what happens and how. It makes […]
We’ve announced that Microsoft is already talking about IE8 and the plans for the next version upgrade for the world’s most used browser.
As we found out though, that could be another 12-18 months before we start using it. In the meantime, you can read this PC Magazine article about getting the most out of Vista […]
As I was reading through the WXPNews, another interesting article that Deb pointed me to was one written by Mrs. Microsoft, Mary Jo Foley.
The topic of discussion is what we may have to look forward to in IE8. From the looks of it, it appears that most of the changes are going to be under […]
Did you know that Google has a specific search function that only searches Microsoft related websites for the information?
I’m guessing the functionality works similar to Rollyo, in that they’ve picked a group of sites that focus on Microsoft information and search for your request among this specific group.
What I’m not able to figure out is […]
A little bit of rumbling in the acquisitions department at Microsoft today. Or at least we can expect there to be with recent news stories about Microsoft putting its eyes on online advertising company DoubleClick. Could this be what Microsoft needs to help it put up a better fight against Google’s AdSense and Yahoo’s online advertising revenue streams?
The DoubleClick […]
A recent article in PC Magazine shares the research that Microsoft’s OneCare product finished dead-last in side-by-side comparisons to other anti-virus software.
“We recently learned that AV Comparatives conducted tests on Windows Live OneCare and the service did not pass their testing criteria,” a Microsoft spokesman said. “We are looking closely at the methodology and results […]
The latest issue of the SitePoint e-mail newsletter has an informative article about how web developers can now use the free Virtual PC application provided by Microsoft to test in IE6 and potentially other versions. The benefit and interesting point made in the article though is that Microsoft is also providing a pre-activated copy of […]
After working through a user account rebuild on my main operating machine in the past 24 hours, I’ve come to appreciate the fact that I haven’t relied upon locally stored “Favorites” for quite some time. I had been a very happy user of Yahoo!’s toolbard and bookmarks function until they upgraded their toolbar and broken […]
I wrote recently about blogging from within the newest version of Microsoft Word 2007. In that post I had mentioned that the functionality of blogging in Word 2007 was very similar to what had been developed in the Windows Live Writer application. Not surprisingly, it would make sense to test functionality in a small, free […]
I used Firefox for about a year or so while IE6 was still on the market. I didn’t really like the initial beta of IE7, so I stayed with Firefox through that time as well. Now that the full-blown version of IE7 is available, I’ve got to say I like the layout and structure of […]
