Opera


Mobile software

Opera Mobile (S60) description

With the award-winning Opera Mobile browser you can surf the same Web sites on your mobile phone as you do on your personal computer.

With the award-winning Opera Mobile browser you can surf the same Web sites on your mobile phone as you do on your personal computer. The Opera mobile Web browser for Symbian S60 is designed with speed and ease-of-use in mind, so you can surf the Web with your mobile phone quickly and easily. No hassle, just fast browsing.
Two rendering modes

The Opera Mobile browser lets you select between two different rendering modes: Fit to screen adapts the Web page so there is no need for horizontal scrolling and the best choice for phones with a standard screen resolution like the Nokia N70. On phones with a higher screen resolution, like the Nokia N80, both the desktop display mode and fit to screen mode makes sense. Why not try out both and see which mode you prefer.

With version 8.65 Opera will also remember the render mode you last used on start up.
Improved user interface

Opera 8.65 comes with a new fresh look, that makes the most of your phone's screen. It has new and slimmer scrollbars, new buttons and form elements with rounded shapes and a blue highlighting feature to make it easy to find your way on any Web page.

The new blue highlighting shows you where you are by highlighting links, forms elements and images.

NEW! With version 8.65 you can now start typing directly in search fields and forms without first having to click on the field.

NEW! With version 8.65 you get more space for the Web content, with only minimal space occupied with the toolbars and menus.

NEW! Version 8.65 comes with an improved home page, with a Web address field, Google search and a Top 10 list of your most frequently visited Web pages for easy access.

Using keypad shortcuts for efficient browsing

Once you have familiarized yourself with mobile browsing, you might want to do it even faster. By using the keypad as shortcut to the most important functions you will get things done faster than before. In Opera 8.65 you can customize all shortcut keys with a number of useful new functions.

NEW! With version 8.65 shortcut functions are enabled by first clicking # then a key. For example, to enter a Web address, press # then 1. Experienced users can still use one-key shortcuts by selecting this in settings.

Web address auto Complete

With Web address auto complete, Opera will make suggestions while you type, based on your browsing history and bookmarks. Once you've tried it, you will never go back...

Open page in new window

Opera 8.65 lets you keep up to four open windows at the same time, and switch easily between them using either the menu or a shortcut. Each window can have its own settings for zoom levels and page display options, just as you are familiar with from the Opera desktop version.

Password manager

A password manager saves time and makes it easier to use a mobile browser. The password manager remembers your username and password for each website so you don't have to type it in more than once.

The password manager is using encryption to store the password information, and gives the user the option of having a master password for extra security.

If you are using webmail services or intranet services frequently, the password manager is a must!

Zoom

Opera 8.65 has a real time zoom for viewing Web pages. Unlike other mobile browsers that can only zoom images or change font size, Opera will zoom the entire page including layout. Using the zoom is easy and gives you the flexibility to get the big picture or get closer for better readability.

Smooth scrolling and page up/page down

For previous Opera users, you will quickly discover the new smooth scrolling when you first try Opera 8.65. It works in both rendering modes and really makes it easy to navigate on Web pages while focusing on readability.

The new Page up / Page down feature is good both for reading articles and for quick browsing down a page. And because it's so good to use we've even included it as default shortcut keys.

NEW! With 8.65 you can even have shortcuts for Page left and Page right for browsing in desktop mode.

... and much more

Opera 8.65 has a wide range of features and functionality, but with continued focus on speed and usability. Here are just a few more features you can find in the browser:

- Find in page: Search the page as you type
- Jump to text: Go directly to the main content
- Go to top / Go to bottom of page
- Open / save image and send as MMS
- Read and bookmark newsfeeds
Access secure sites such as internet banks

Google Toolbar 6.0.1411.1512 Beta / 5.0.2124.6042


Google Toolbar description


Increases your ability to find information from anywhere on the web
Google Toolbar increases your ability to find information from anywhere on the web. The Google Toolbar appears along with the Internet Explorer toolbar.

Google Toolbar is a toolbar that helps you to find information on the internet.

This means you can quickly and easily use Google to search from any website location, without returning to the Google home page to begin another search.

Here are some key features of "Google Toolbar":
AutoFill:
· Tired of typing in your address and credit card information every time you shop online? AutoFill makes shopping a breeze by enabling you to fill out web forms with a single click. Just enter your info once in the Toolbar's Options dialog box and you're ready for an online shopping spree. (Note: your credit card info stays password-protected.)
AutoLink:
· The online review of a great new restaurant has the place's address but no map. You could type the restaurant's street, city, and ZIP code into the search box, but why bother, when clicking the Toolbar's AutoLink button will automatically create a link to an online map (US addresses only)? AutoLink can also link package tracking numbers to delivery status, VIN numbers (US) to vehicle history, and publication ISBN numbers to Amazon.com listings.
WordTranslator:
· Ever need to translate words on English web pages into another language? Don't bother looking up words one by one - just hover your mouse cursor over an English word and Toolbar's WordTranslator will tell you what it means in your own language. WordTranslator currently supports translation from English into Chinese (Traditional and Simplified), Japanese, Korean, French, Italian, German and Spanish.

Address Bar Browse by Name:
· Browse by Name helps you find a site even when you don't know its URL. Just type the site name into your browser address bar, and Toolbar will take you there automatically. For instance, try typing "oxford" into the address bar to go directly to the university's home page at www.ox.ac.uk.

· If you type in something that doesn't have an official home page, like "digital cameras," Browse by Name will automatically show you search results for that term.

Bookmarks:
· Want to create and label bookmarks that you can access from any computer? Simply click the Toolbar's star icon, or right-click the star to add and label a bookmark. You'll be able to access your Bookmarks menu on any computer with the new Google Toolbar installed.

· Note this feature stores your bookmarks online, so you'll need to have a Google Account and be signed in to create and access your bookmarks. You can also view your bookmarks using your Google Account's Search History feature. Just click the "Search History" link that appears in the upper right-hand corner of the Google homepage when you're logged into your Google Account and you'll see your Bookmarks.
Send To:
· You can use your Google Toolbar to share web pages via email, text message (SMS), or blog. To share an entire page, select from the Toolbar's "Send To" menu; to share an excerpt, simply select the section of the page you want to share before clicking "Send To."

· Note: sending text messages via the Google Toolbar is free. Your cell phone carrier, however, may charge a fee to receive messages, on either a monthly or per-message basis.

Google Account Sign-in:
· Your Google Account is your access point for Google services like Personalized Homepage, Google Groups and Gmail ·� and now you can sign in and out right from your Toolbar. Simply click on the Settings button on the right end of the Toolbar and select "Sign In" (you'll know you're signed in when the Toolbar shows you a green light)

Enhanced Search Box:
· As you type a search query into the new Toolbar's search box, you'll see a list of useful suggestions based on popular Google searches, spelling corrections and your own Toolbar search history and bookmarks. You can also click the 'G' icon in the search box to search different Google sites, the current site, or sites for which you've installed custom search buttons.

Custom Buttons:
· You can add buttons to your Toolbar that will let you visit and search your favorite websites and keep up with interesting feeds. Our Button Gallery offers a selection of ready-made buttons for popular sites, and you can make your own buttons in seconds by right-clicking within the search box on any site and selecting "Generate Custom Search".

TVU networks brings you programs from around the world that you can't get from your local cable and satellite providers.

The incorrect detection may be due to heuristics or to an incorrect virus signature in a database. [Similar problems can occur with antitrojan or antispyware software.]
NEW FEATURES:

Panda USB Vaccine 1.0.0.19 Beta




Panda USB Vaccine description


Protect your PC against any malware-related problems associated with Microsoft AutoRun
The Panda USB Vaccine allows users to vaccinate their PCs in order to disable AutoRun completely so that no program from any USB/CD/DVD drive (regardless of whether they have been previously vaccinated or not) can auto-execute.

The Panda USB Vaccine also can be used on individual USB drives to disable its AUTORUN.INF file in order to prevent malware infections from spreading automatically. When applied on a USB drive, the vaccine permanently blocks the AUTORUN.INF file, preventing it from being read, created, deleted or modified.

Once applied it effectively disables Windows from automatically executing any malicious file that might be stored in that particular USB drive. The drive can otherwise be used normally and files (even malware) copied to/from it, but they will be prevented from opening automatically.

Please take into account that vaccinating a USB drive is a non reversible operation and under some very unlikely conditions some applications could stop working. In any case if you do not have an AUTORUN.INF file in your USB drive it’s completely safe to vaccinate it.

With Panda USB Vaccine you'll be safe from any malware attacks exploiting the AUTORUN.INF file.

Microsoft Silverlight 3.0.40307.0


Microsoft Silverlight description


A cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in designed to be the source of rich online user experiences
Silverlight is essentially nothing more than Microsoft's vision of a cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in designed to be the source of rich online user experiences and to dislodge Flash from its current dominant position on the market. And when the Redmond company said cross-platform they indeed meant it.

Microsoft revealed that it does not plan to leverage the existing Windows Update infrastructure in order to make available Silverlight to all users of the Windows operating system. Such a move would give Silverlight immediate and total access to an install base close to 1 billion users and will make it just as ubiquitous as Adobe's Flash. Instead the Redmond company has debuted a number of in-house projects to push the technology, as well as tap its partners for support.

And in this context, Microsoft announced that "Entertainment Tonight," HSN and World Wrestling Entertainment will all deliver Silverlight content to viewers. In fact, a total of 35 Microsoft partners worldwide have announced their support for Silverlight.

Here are some key features of "Microsoft Silverlight":

Compelling Experiences
■ Custom branded experiences using 2D vector graphics, animation, styling, and skinning
■ HD video and adaptive streaming techniques for world-class media experiences
■ Highly sophisticated RIA's across major browsers on Mac, Windows, Linux, and devices
■ Unparalleled interactivity with high resolution content through Deep Zoom technology enabling smooth browsing independent of screen size
New Markets
■ Multi-channel deployment of web applications to the desktop and devices through .NET
■ Cost effective media delivery via Windows Server
■ Monetization of media assets via protected content and advertising-enabled scenarios
■ Thriving ecosystem of .NET and Windows Media partners, developers, and applications
Team Productivity
■ Rapid development through XML-based declarative markup and a full set of controls Role-specific productivity tools to enhance designer--developer collaboration, with Expression Studio, Visual Studio, and Visual Studio Team System
■ Flexible programming model that supports JavaScript, C#, VB.NET, AJAX, IronPython, IronRuby, and support for LINQ while accessing data over the network
■ Easy to add richness to AJAX applications and reduce cross-browser issues

Requirements:

■ Windows Vista with Windows Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 1.5, Firefox 2
■ Windows XP SP2 with Internet Explorer 6 or 7, Firefox 1.5, Firefox 2
■ Windows Server 2003 (excluding IA-64) with Internet Explorer 6 or 7, Firefox 1.5, Firefox 2
■ Windows 2000 with Internet Explorer 6 (Silverlight 2.0 Only)
■ X86 or x64 500-megahertz (MHz) or higher processor with 128-megabytes (MB) of RAM

Zebra scanner 2.0.2



Zebra scanner description


Scan your Mac for trojans
Zebra scanner is a simple AS Studio application to trace down trojans. A Trojan refers to a program that appears as something you may think is safe, but hidden inside is usually something harmful. The lure of Trojans is that you may download a game or a picture, thinking it's harmless, but once you double-click this file the virus gets to work.

Zebra scanner is intended to search for applications, hidden behind another extension than 'app' . It checks if any of the files in the selected folder(s) has either the real extension '.app' or the file type 'APPL'. In Mac OS >= 10.3 the program also checks if the item is considered an executable by the OS which can be activated by double-click or otherwise.

Zebra scanner aims to be a fast and easy way to retrieve trojan viruses, disguised as an image, movie, MP3, folder etc. This way you can avoid a hidden application to be double clicked by accident and do damage to your Computer. Zebra scanner can also examine classic data.

McAfee VirusScan 8.6.1

McAfee VirusScan description Complete, Proactive Threat Protection
McAfee VirusScan for Mac is a tool that runs natively on both Intel and PPC based Macintosh computers.

It can be managed by McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator for scalable security policy compliance and graphical reporting. It includes true On Access scanning and supports scanning of Apple Mail messages on Mac OS X Tiger (10.4.0 & above).
Here are some key features of "McAfee VirusScan":

· Complete, Proactive Threat Protection
McAfee VirusScan for Mac uses on-access scanning to search for viruses and malicious threats every time a file is accessed. It automatically detects viral infections as they attempt to infect a system and protects against Macintosh, PC, and UNIX viruses. In addition, it has the ability to scan Apple Mail messages and attachments for malicious threats. It will also protect your users when they save or open files from network share drives.

· Protection from Tomorrow's Threats
McAfee VirusScan for Mac uses heuristic analysis and generic detection that proactively protects against new and previously unknown viruses. The advanced heuristic analysis looks through the code in a file to determine if the actions it takes are typical of a virus. The more virus-like code found, the more likely the file is to be infected. To reduce the risk of false alarms, our positive heuristics approach is combined with negative heuristics, which searches for those things that are distinctly non-virus-like.
· Centralized Management
McAfee VirusScan for Mac can be managed by McAfee's ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO). ePO provides centralized policy configuration and enforcement as well as detailed reporting for VirusScan for Mac clients. Centralized management lets your business run efficiently and cost-effectively.
· Universal Deployment
McAfee VirusScan for Mac uses Macintosh's Universal Binary, which allows you to install on either Intel-based or Power PC-based Macintosh systems. Now you can get the same level of protection regardless of which processor you are running. This universal binary makes it easy to deploy; just install it and VirusScan for Mac will automatically run at peak performance to protect your systems.
· Flexible Scheduling Options for On-Demand Scans and Updating
Schedule tasks easily with McAfee VirusScan for Mac. You will save time and help keep tasks from being forgotten. You can also schedule full disk scans to run at convenient intervals, such as overnight or during off-peak hours. The manual option of McAfee VirusScan for Mac or the scheduler task can be used to scan disk volumes and folders to search out hidden threats.
· Always Up to Date with eUpdate
McAfee VirusScan for Mac automatically downloads updates from the McAfee web site for full compliance and the latest protection against viruses, worms, and other malicious code. You'll find it easy to schedule daily or weekly automatic updates, resulting in automatic updating and cleaning that protects against infected Internet downloads, and prevents countless hours of wasted time expended to recover and recreate lost work.
· Easy-to-Use Interface
McAfee VirusScan for Mac uses Apple's Mac OS X Aqua user interface, which provides users with a familiar, easy-to-use interface. The McAfee VirusScan for Mac OS X Aqua interface makes configuration more intuitive for new users, while providing powerful and customizable options for power users.

iAntivirus description


Protection against the most nefarious cyber-threats attempting to gain access to your Mac and personal information.
iAntiVirus will allow you to be protected against the most nefarious cyber-threats attempting to gain access to your Mac and personal information.

Once your computer has been infected, a virus or worm will usually attempt to spread itself to your friends, family and associates by accessing your email contacts and networked PCs.

The infection may also allow hackers to access files on your Mac, use it to launch attacks against other computers and websites or to send mass SPAM email.

iAntiVirus will provide comprehensive system scanning and real-time protection to ensure your Mac remains safe and virus free.

Protection against Mac specific threats

The iAntiVirus database has been designed from the ground up to detect and remove Mac specific threats. This enables a high level of protection whilst keeping memory footprint and resource usage at a minimum. The iAntiVirus database is not cluttered with signatures for Windows specific threats which your Mac is immune against.

Automatic Smart Updates:
· Frequent updates to detect and guard computers against new threats and viruses as well as provide enhancements to iAntiVirus are automatically installed and downloaded through the Smart Update function. Threat signatures are updated within hours of a high risk malware outbreak to protect you from the latest online threats.

· When in monitoring mode iAntiVirus has been designed to work silently in the background, threats are blocked and removed without any system impact, while only a small alert window is displayed to advise you that your Mac has been protected against an attack.

Royale Theme for WinXP



Royale Theme for WinXP - Official description

A new theme, potentially destined for Windows XP. FreewareRoyale Theme is a new theme, potentially destined for Windows XP, that has leaked out of Microsoft and onto the web. The theme appears to have come out of a beta version of Media Center 2005 that was in testing.


The theme is not a substantially different incarnation of the existing of Luna, the current default theme for Windows XP. You can see the main changes in the screenshots below; one could describe it as being a 'glass mod' of Luna.


As Microsoft knows, it is very hard to please everyone when it comes to themes. However, I think they can be reasonably certain that most people will like this new version of Luna.
Microsoft New Zealand is making available some free desktop backgrounds for use on your computer. Includes the New Zealand version of Bliss; the world-famous directional sign in Bluff; and the theme pack for Royale.
