Windows 8 Remains a Mystery as Microsoft Anticipates Surging Market Demands

Microsoft has always had surprises for its customers. They have a very special trend for software development. It is quite difficult to anticipate what they will roll out whenever they announce such a move. For example, the upgrade of Windows 1.0 to Windows 7 came as a surprise to many.

A close look at the development of the Windows brand of software reveals that Microsoft is dynamic. Some customers still complain about the compatibility of the Windows operating system with other computer applications but truth be told, Windows is a great brand. Recently, the corporation unveiled Windows 7, which ideally is an upgrade of Windows version 1.0. This displays the corporations intend to solve the compatibility aspects that most users of the former version have pointed out.

What Microsoft is doing is laudable; it is a mechanism of identifying the pitfalls and shortcomings of its applications in attempt to better its software to meet the demands of the market currently. The world is going technological, if it has not already done so. The Chief Executive Officer of the corporation, Mr. Steve Ballmer hinted that Windows is undergoing evolution. It is in doubt whether this will interfere with the release of the chain of the operating system.

The CEO intimated that the software would undergo massive changes in the future that will make its look very different from the way it does today. He emphasized that the software in the future will be very different from its current look. Currently, the software works just fine. In fact, it is the most common software and the best so far. It is very easy to use and manipulate towards the performance of different tasks.

Currently, Microsoft is working on Windows 8.The corporation has not disclosed the features of the software yet. From the words of the CEO, we can anticipate a unique product that encompasses major improvements of the previous operating systems and that meets the current requirements of the market.

Microsoft, Mozilla, Adobe and Foxit Bugs and Their Critical Patches

Several software companies are releasing a whole range of patches and quick fixes for all the little bugs that are appearing on their laptops and PCs. Although Microsoft has reached a record one patch for the most recent cycle, this patch proves to be a pretty important one considering that it will fix a bug allows online hackers to steal information and possibly take over your computer once you view a compromised website.

This patch basically attempts to resolve the errors in Internet Explorer 5 for Windows 2000; Internet Explorer 6 for Windows XP; and Internet Explorer 7 for Windows Vista and XP. It seems like this may also affect Internet Explorer 8 as well, although it has not been necessary for the more robust version that came out with Windows 7. All of these patches are readily available online and can be gotten by simply running the Windows Update on your PC.

Microsoft

There are also two patches that are being released to fix a bug that could possibly assist in eliciting a PC attack through MS Office’s MS Excel and MS Word compromised files. One of the most vulnerable versions of Office to this kind of hit is Office 2000 because once the attacker is able to get into the system, he can implement any command at his bidding. Other versions that may be susceptible are the Office XP version as well as Office 2003 and Office 2007, as well as the 2004 and 2008 versions created for the Mac.

Microsoft Works is also undergoing some problems which Microsoft also needs to resolve, specifically for MS Works converters and file for the Office versions in 2000, XP, 2003 and 2007. This is also required for the Microsoft versions of 9 and 8.5.

The windows Printer Spool is also another area infected with bugs and giving those using Windows 2000 a way into a system that is not firewall protected. If an attack were to be successful on a Windows 2000 version, it would only pose moderate threats to other Windows versions. Although Microsoft has released some patches, these fixes are only there to fix lesser problems compared to these mentioned that need immediate attention.

Mozilla

After the release of Firefox 3.5 by the Mozilla group mid-year of 2009, not having this version may open you up to some threats. If you still have Firefox 3.0, then the least you should do is to get the 3.0 update in its latest most recent version. This Firefox 3.0 fix responds to at least four crucial bugs that have appeared in Javascript, three of which impinge on the SeaMonkey Suite and two that compromise the Thunderbird email application. To get these updates, go to the Help section of Firefox and click on the Check for Updates option to be sure that you are using the Firefox 3.0.11 version or at least the 1.1.17 version of SeaMonkey and 2.0.0.22 version of Thunderbird.

Adobe

As for Adobe, the problem is in the Shockwave Player version 11.5.0.596 or any earlier version of it. Some websites have manipulated Adobe Director files that would allow an attacker to take over your PC and have full control over it. The best remedy to this, as suggested by Adobe, is to install the latest version of Shockwave Player and completely uninstall the older version, at least just to get you out of harm’s way.

Some effective updates have been released for the Reader and Acrobat (versions 9.1.2 or 7.1.3 or 8.1.6). This update prevents any loopholes for a PC takeover even if you have a compromised PDF file. The best way to get the updated it to go to Help, click on Check for Updates and check if you have the latest version of Reader and Acrobat. This updated is now available for Unix, Macintosh, and Windows systems.

Foxit

For those using the Foxit Reader PDF application, you may need to get a patch by going to Help and clicking on About Foxit Reader  and making sure that you at least have Foxit Reader 3.0 build 1817 on your computer. Without the latest version, there will be a threat to your JPEG2000/JBIG2 Decoder add-ons and the Foxit Reader 3.0 base program. You can easily download the latest version of Foxit Reader online. To find out about your add-ons, go to the help option and the Check for Updates. This will at least get the the add-on updates, but will not update your Foxit Reader version, so do that separately.

Few days ago we have posted an article about installing Turbo C++ on 32 bit Windows 7. Now we are providing step-by-step procedure how to install Turbo C++ on 64 bit Windows 7.

http://www.bestsoftware4download.com/software/t-free-dosbox-download-rqeabjvs.html

2. Create a folder,for example „Turbo“ (c:\Turbo\)

3. Download and extract TC into the Turbo folder (c:\Turbo\):

http://blog.bestsoftware4download.com/goto/http://s1.freedownloadme.info/turboc_installed.zip 

4. Run the DOSBox 0.73 from the icon located on the desktop

5. Type the following commands at the command prompt [Z]: mount d c:\Turbo\ [The folder TC is present inside the folder Turbo

Now you should get a message which says: Drive D is mounted as a local directory c:\Turbo\

6. Type d: to shift to d:

7. Next follow the commands below:

cd tc

cd bin

tc or tc.exe [This starts you the Turbo C++ 3.0]

8. In the Turbo C++ goto Options>Directories> Change the source of TC to the source directory [D] ( i.e. virtual D: refers to original c:\Turbo\ . So make the path change to something like D:\TC\include and D:\TC\lib respectively )

How to start TurboC++ in the DOSBox automatically:

You can save yourself some time by having DOSBox automatically mount your folders and start TurboC++:

or DOSBox versions older then 0.73 browse into program installation folder and open the dosbox.conf file in any text editor. For version 0.73 go to Start Menu and click on “Configuration” and then “Edit Configuration“. Then scroll down to the very end, and add the lines which you want to automatically execute when DOSBox starts.

Automatically mount and start Turbo C++3.0 in DOSBox ver 0.73:

Scroll down to the very end, and add the lines:

Those commands will be executed automatically when DOSBox starts!

Please note:

Full screen: Alt and Enter

When you exit from the DosBox [precisely when u unmount the virtual drive where Turbo C++ 3.0 has been mounted] all the files you have saved or made changes in Turbo C++ 3.0 will be copied into the source directory(The directory which contains TC folder)

Don’t use shortcut keys to perform operations in TC because they might be a shortcut key for DOSBOX also . Eg : Ctrl+F9 will exit DOSBOX rather running the code .
