a few notes on whats happening with the latest stuff

ie6 modules will not be removed from the eng xp/2k3 releases this month, they will instead be removed in the march releases when we move to ap5.6, and i will create add on packs.

the new wmp11 installer (25MB) and windows live messenger v8.1 (16MB) will not be included this month, i'll add them next month (your all going to have to download full/lite releases next month because of the big changes in ap5.6, and theres no point downloading these two files twice wasting bandwidth!

wmp11 updates (KB928788 & KB929399) will not be included this month, i'm waiting til ap5.6 which will have wmp detection and therefore wont interfere with systems still on wmp10 and older

the cache cleanup utility for IE seems to be only for xp sp1 so that wont be included (that is unless ms made a typo and it is actually for xp sp2

i'll leave the .net3 lang pack til next month

i'm not going to include the Application Compatibility Toolkit because it's only useful to application developers

the windows installer clean up utility doesnt sound useful to most people and could actually be dangerous, i'm not going to include it

KB885626 i dont know whether this can be installed on systems with xp sp2 already installed, i'm waiting for confirmation from the_guy

for some reason i have KB929969 and KB873374 in my todo list so someone must have reported them sometime in the last month, no idea who it was, can't bebothered to search and find out, but KB929969 was included last month and KB873374 isnt needed, the necessary KB873374 (GDI+) related updates i remember were included at the time they were released, however the detection tool was never included because its just not necessary for most people.

the_guy, that's a miracle. at this time, ms remember of pt-br. it's there :D

so, now they just need remember of this ones:

KB927544 - just work in english or, at least, not in pt-br

KB928089

KB928939 (until now, i don't know why windows update show it also needed for Brazil... someone must think Australia is near from here)

eu font update (someone told some time ago that this one is international. maybe, but installer it's only in english)

but the most interesting thing is that wga is in english and reports in pt-br too...

PsiMoon314, you can expect that in each update from now. appears that vista didn't sell also expected and they are blaming piracy (nothing to do with system requeriments... everybody have already a vista capable machine, with drivers, etc). because of that, they will ask for wga everytime...

by the way: how did you find wga packed to download? i've just can found it already unpacked, at C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download

thanks in advance

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
