  1. Review - Comodo Internet Security (32-bit)

    3.5.54375.427 (Oct 29, 2008)

    does this even include a spyware module?

  2. Review - Blaze Media Pro

    8.0 (Mar 18, 2008)

    What's new with this version? Strange that there is no upgrade option.

  3. Review - K-Lite Codec Pack Full

    3.5.9 Beta (Dec 12, 2007)

    I never got this to work on XP. The only codec pack that really seems to work is cole2k ... too bad it hasn't been updated since May.

  4. Review - Microsoft IE Automatic Component Activation Preview (Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP 32-bit)

    1.0 (Dec 12, 2007)

    I do not see the advantage of this. ActiveX has a reputation of being malware, and is blocked by the firewall anyway. Why would anyone want to remove the warning?

  5. Review - Microsoft Office Outlook Connector

    Is this not a feature of outlook express?

  6. Comment - Siemens announces massive worldwide job cuts

    It's a bloated corporation that has totally lost connection with its core business. I am a shareholder and their annual reports are an incomprehensible mess. They need major restructuring for sure.

  7. Comment - Major fix to DNS vulnerability impacts Windows, Debian

    So Kaminsky has published this since "at least" 2003! I think that those like me whose Zonealarm was impacted by the patch can safely remove the patch rather than downgrade their firewall settings given that this vulnerability has not been exploited for at least 5 years.

  8. Comment - Pints of Guinness all 'round! 8.3 million Firefox 3 downloads

    Strangely enough, Firefox 2.00.14 does not recognize an available update! It would be much easier to do this via the update button.

  9. Comment - The end of an era as AOL officially retires Netscape

    I think the browser history in some of the comments is somewhat off. For one, several experimental browsers were around before NCSA Mosaic came out in 1992 ... but I think that Mosaic was the first popular browser. Also Mosaic did not vanish, MS bought the license in 1995 from Spyglass and developed it into IE. This was acknowledged at least up to IE 5.
