Eh, I'm thinking of it from the point of view of "how secure is the situation you're in right now?" - having a site marked as "trusted" is dangerous from a security standpoint, as it can pretty much do whatever it wants, whereas if it's marked as "restricted," the browser isn't going to just let the site damage the system - it's a more secure state. Otherwise, I need to change the Security Center notification icon telling the user that the firewall is down to a the green security-ok icon, because all remote computers have all been given the green light to connect to any local network service. I know, the way I've got it set doesn't jive with the way MS did it in IE4, but it makes more sense to me, and it's consistent with the way they're doing things now.

Now, onto the pink monitor in the Desktop tab of Display Properties when using Git2:

I finally got around to fixing it. The Magic Pink color just needed to be set to actual Magic Pink.

To apply it, put the attached file in %UserProfile%\Desktop\override\res_tweaked\themeui.dll before running the installer set to Git2.

thanks fix worked great, and a musikcube icon would be great if anyone could do it

I've finally gotten around to doing some work on trying to hack together a proof-of-concept for patching Vista. As far as I can tell, unless I'm Microsoft, it is impossible for me to alter system files on a running system - only TrustedInstaller has permissions to modify most/all system files, and word on the street (well, five minutes of Googling) says that I would need a cryptographic certificate from MS to get in bed with TrustedInstaller. However, the Vista installer CD in recovery mode has a command prompt unfettered enough to do the dirty work.

Obligatory screenshots:

Of course, this still doesn't mean I'm actually going to do it (since RC2 is the newest build I'll ever have legitimate access to), but hey, it's possible.

Any update on the tango cards? I'm so anxious!
I haven't really had/taken any time to work on them, really. I've been busy with work and NFS: Carbon. It was kinda fun for the first few cards, but whenever the creative part of my brain realized that I'd need to do it * 13, I haven't really felt like playing with them.

*inputs sad face*
Heh. I've got the Aces, 1-3s, and 10s done. I had to fiddle with them to align them against the Windows cards... I was going for bigger shapes, but there's only so many pixels you can pack into so much space, and I got it a bit wrong the first time.

Yo, BobP!

Yeah, the magic of badly resized icons. It's my fault and it'll be fixed eventually. I'm still trying to find out how to get the Gmail Extension back in the status bar properly. I might just forget about it heh. Thanks for the heads up! ;)

The openoffice tango patch on devart doesn't seem to work on 2.1.

Does anyone know why?

I overwrote with the images_industrial file, then selected the iconset...

Happened to me too, I had to delete all files in

C:\Documents and Settings\_USER_\Application Data\OpenOffice.org2\user\config\imagecache

And then reapply the theme. It worked :)

Also remember to set your icon size to 'small' if you haven't already done so.

To do that (if you don't already know): Tools --> Options --> View --> Set the option under 'Icon size and style' to small.

Er...if you already did all that then I apologize for wasting your time. I'll go away now. Hee!

      By Copernic · Posted

      DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3

      By Copernic · Posted

      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.
