The just released Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) is a competent browser with enough features to meet the needs of most users but is difficult to recommend due to on-going security concerns. In the past IE has been a focus for security attacks and there is little to suggest this will change with the release of IE7. Additionally, Microsoft have a poor track record for speedily fixing IE defects and this has left users open to drive-by attacks and other forms of zero-day exploits. (more…)

There is a free and a pro version, the only difference being that the free version has a few non-critical features disabled and has no direct technical support. (more…)

File Recover is the type of utility software that users never think they require until they have accidentally deleted an important document or data file. Gone in a flash can be months or years of work, accounting records, documents, data files, and especially those files planned for tomorrows back up. No doubt, you are wondering, why buy a program when Microsoft Windows already has a Recycle Bin? Windows software has a Recycle bin as part of the package. Nevertheless, many deleted files bypass the Windows Recycle bin, and are neither saved nor recoverable. Furthermore, the Recycle Bin purges older files all the time in the normal course of doing its job. (more…)

Electronic security locks, popularly known as “dongles,†are commonly used to deter software piracy. This idea describes a simple yet-powerful design of such a security lock using the linear feedback shift register (LFSR) principle. The lock, which is implemented using Atmel’s AT90S2323 AVR RISC microcontroller, connects to the PC’s RS-232 serial port. The lock uses the PC’s serial port to communicate to the PC, as well as derive power for its own operation. Commercially available dongles come in various shapes and connectivity. The most common type connects to the PC’s parallel port. Increasingly, dongles with USB connectivity also are appearing, and those using RS-232 connections exist as well.
