lol, yeah...but there is a reason these things are kept private.

Not like in Windows that when there are leaks, it isn't really going to aid the competition.

But in this case...I'd rather not AOL see what it has coming for it until it is too late. :p

Trade Wind:

So if you've been using it, does it add some of the abilities that IE has and MSN 7 doesn't... such as the ability to browse history? I see MSN 8 has already improved upon the main limitation of 7, which is that it now has list of menus on the top. But it also looks like they're still missing some fundamental things in 8, such as a down arrow next to the back and forward button to see all the past sites, and there's no drop down list in the address bar either... all these things are available in IE. Anyway, just fill me in when you get a chance... :)

Update: I installed but it won't let me sign in, not even under guest... its saying that I have to sign up for MSN 8 account witch I have to pay for... It also said that I can use an account that is already signed up with MSN as an ISP but that still didn't work...

I did take some pics of what I can..

ok people here it is...

Link Removed

I put only 5 connections and is only for DSL and or Cable...

its 12am where I'm at (PST) I'm shutting it down at about 8am PST... or if one of the guys here at neowin shuts it down... I might let it go all day tomorrow but not sure...

PS

PLEASE STOP pm me asking for the program cause your not getting it..

Hope someone can do somthing with it... let me know if you work it...

      In the boot options in the UEFI is set to legacy or CMS? It needs to be set to UEFI if it's not already.

    • Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft's aggressive roadmap to deliver a commercial quantum supercomputer by 2029 has now hit a bit of a snag, and it's not because of a complex sub-zero dilution refrigerator, but rather because of a few lines of basic Python code. A new critique published in the scientific journal Nature argues that simple software errors effectively manufactured the breakthrough that Microsoft's foundational research claimed back in 2025 into Majorana-based topological qubits. Topological quantum computing, the path that Microsoft chose for its research, relies on creating and controlling "Majorana zero modes." These are exotic quasiparticles that theoretically offer vastly superior error resistance compared to the highly sensitive superconducting qubits currently being championed by rivals like Google and IBM. However, physically proving you have created these particles requires sifting through massive amounts of complex electrical conductance data to isolate a specific "topological gap." Because of the sheer volume of data, physicists rely heavily on custom software pipelines to process the results. This is where the Python scripts come in. Now, according to the critique, Microsoft’s data processing software contained fundamental programming errors that ultimately skewed the published results. By mishandling data arrays or deploying incorrect logic within the Python script, the software supposedly discarded "noisy" or contradictory data. Which is why it only highlighted the specific electrical measurements that supported the topological-gap claim. The researchers behind the critique argued that this makes the findings invalid, suggesting the heralded "quantum leap" was actually a false positive generated by bad code and not a product of groundbreaking physics. However, Microsoft is pushing back hard against these allegations. The Redmond giant has formally rejected the criticism, saying that it's just a minor anomaly rather than a fatal flaw. According to the company, while there may have been a minor oversight in the data parsing scripts, it does not alter the fundamental reality of their physical experiment. Just weeks ago, Microsoft unveiled the Majorana 2 quantum processor, a milestone so significant that the company boldly accelerated its timeline for a commercial quantum supercomputer from 2035 down to 2029. But the new software allegations reopen an old wound. Microsoft's quantum division faced a remarkably similar crisis when a landmark 2018 paper on Majorana particles was famously retracted in 2021 after independent physicists discovered the data had been inappropriately cropped. That historical baggage makes the current Python-related allegations particularly sensitive. If the foundational math and data processing for the 2025 breakthrough are genuinely flawed, the highly anticipated 2029 commercial timeline could easily be delayed or, worse, cancelled.

      Because of what they have done to VMware I will never buy anything Broadcom again.
