Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

By Administrator
The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

Windows 8 integrates Adobe Flash

By Administrator
Windows 8 integrates Adobe Flash

Internet Explorer 10 within the Windows 8 operating system will include an integrated version of Adobe Flash, while the Metro-based browser will feature support for the use of Flash on a limited number of Web sites.

When it comes to the Windows 8 operating system, Microsoft's browser will be available in two versions:

  • a traditional desktop browser with full support for plugins and extensions,
  • as well as a new Metro-based browser for which plugins will not be necessary.

In addition, the browser will feature an integrated version of Adobe Flash, and because it is integrated, it will not be treated as a plugin. However, you should take into account the fact that Microsoft will limit the use of Flash in the Metro-based browser to those Web sites that are on the list of approved sites.

The list implies a combination of domains:

  • video sites such as Hulu, YouTube, and Vimeo,
  • sites such as CNN, BBC, and Wired,
  • as well as a large number of entertainment and gaming sites such as Facebook and Zynga.

Flash-based interactive content on these sites will work within the Metro-based browser. Flash content on other sites will require the use of a desktop browser.

Flash is still a very productive tool for creating rich, interactive Web content, and Adobe wants to keep it usable, at least until the moment when development tools enable a full transition to HTML5.

If the company decides on this transition earlier, then Flash must be usable on Windows 8. Of course, Flash is not the only plugin technology used to provide streaming video and rich interactive content. Microsoft's Silverlight is also used for the same thing, so the question arises, will Microsoft create an integrated version of Silverlight like they did with Flash?

For now, the answer to that question is not known, but it can be concluded - one of the websites that are on the list of Flash-approved sites is Netflix, and this is very interesting since Netflix does not actually use Flash for streaming media content, but uses Silverlight.

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

By Administrator
What is the difference between regular Sleep mode and Hybrid sleep mode? And what is Hibernate ? I will try to explain in the simplest way possible so that everyone understands nicely. 1. Sleep When you select Sleep mode , all components of the computer except RAM are shut down to store data. So, if you do something on the computer and press Sleep, the computer shuts down and everything you did (left open windows, documents, etc.) is stored in RAM.

How to speed up folder opening [Win7]

By Administrator
I had a problem with the slow loading of folders on Win7, until recently. When I opened the folder, I waited for a while to read all the items from it. That green progress, at least upstairs, was filled with incredible slowness , which annoyed me. I searched a bit on the net, I concluded something myself and came up with a simple and effective solution. You will not need any program or complicated settings for this, everything is easy.

Image of 1.74 giga pixels

By Administrator
In the picture of Barack Obama 's inauguration on January 20, 2009. you can clearly identify each person individually in that mass of people. Click 2x anywhere on the image. Use the zoom on the left to zoom in on the selected person and wait a few seconds for the image to focus. That image was taken by a 174-megapixel robot camera. That's 295 x the average 5-megapixel camera.
