Hey,
We put in a very accessible captcha solution plugin to hopefully keep out a lot of the spam. They have audio equivalent, and only for people who need to registor. Once registored, the forum is free for you to use here. I hate using these things, but I only would put something that is accessible to all. Enjoy. Let me know if you have any trouble and it will go bye bye. Don’t like to have things that don’t work.

hi.
along with the latest root certs ms has released dotnet4 for xp.
this is interesting, for a bit it was just a limited watered down version.
not sure if this one is or not because I just loaded it and didn’t
test it but hmmm
interesting

Hi.
adobe acrobat 9.34 is out

Hi.

finally there is an update list for august.
this is for win7 but most of it should be the same.
scannel
smb tcp/ip
service share feature kernal and kernal mode drivers
windows shell.
dotnet 3.51
thats probably most of them.
I probably missed some others like the remote rdp service and I think
an authentication server share but thats it.

Hi.
a new version of flash player for ie and firefox is out.
please use the links on softwarepatch.com.
they may say old builds but I checked them and they do indeed
download the right files.
if you want to check what your version is in properties on the second
tab, there is a version field,
this is what will tell you if you have the latest installer or not.
Note, if you don’t have dialup but have broadband your flash will
update itself but you will still need to install it for firefox or
some online gaming software that uses it.

Hi all.
well here are the updates.
ok, ok, I actually don’t have em all right now because
softwarepatch.com has not updated its databases yet.
you will get about 97 mb download with ie6 and maybe slightly more with ie8.
a tipical office xp-2007 user not sure abut later should be getting
betwene 118 to 124mb of download.
due to an dotnet update please leave your system idoling for an hour
or so after the updates are loaded to allow the stuff to finnish,
this should not slow down your entire system but startup for the
first start of your system will be slower.
There is an update to the compatibility mode of ie8 to.
The article on patch tuesday mentioned updates for adobe, a search of
uscert yesterday found updates for flash in july which I am sure I
set on here and everything else.
no updates for acrobat since I have checked these myself.
yesterday I did a full run through of thirdparty products on the
network and apart from nokia updates there were not to many other things.

I should probably thank the net gods whoever they are since I have no
podcasts or extra stuff over the load of stuff I got on monday, which
means I have no real rush to do.
there are about 2 things I need to handle today, and those should be
done by about 11.
after which its a nice walk and lunch.
followed by me processing bits and bobs which can lead to more extra finds
