Hide Active Windows Utility

March 16th, 2008 | Comments Off | Posted in Tips N Tricks

Window Hidie is a windows application that will hide your active and running window from your desktop. This can be useful if you are in the middle of something and have to leave your computer open with other people around and cannot turn off your computer for some reason.

The software is a small application and very quick and easy to install. Window Hidie was created by Xigga-Man, a C# and Java programmer. It will work on Windows XP SP2( Service Pack 2) and Windows Vista (All versions). However, you will need to have a .NET 2.0 Framework installed in order for the utility to work. What is .NET Framework? The Microsoft .NET Framework is a software component that is a part of Microsoft Windows operating systems. It has a rather large library of pre-coded solutions to common program requirements, and manages the execution of programs written specifically for the framework. The .NET Framework is a key Microsoft offering, and is intended to be used by most new applications created for the Windows platform. If you do not have the .NET framework installed in your PC, you can download it here.

How to use:

After installing the program you only have to remember three command keys.

Windows Key + A : Will show and hide the Window Hidie Program

Windows Key + Z: Will hide the active window

Windows Key + S: Will show all hidden windows

You can check out the official download site of Window Hidie or quick download the file here.

Windows Vista SP1 Blocks Some Security Programs

February 22nd, 2008 | Comments Off | Posted in Technology

images.jpgIf you happen to be using Windows Vista, be aware that the Service Pack 1 (SP1) update for your system currently has compatibility issues with some applications. Take note that these applications are not just ordinary applications. Majority of the affected software happen to be Virus Detection programs. There are several reports as of now that when you install SP1 for Vista, it will block certain applications.

In the list of blocked applications are: BitDefender AV ver 10 , Fujitsu Shock Sensor 2.1.0.0, Jiangmin KV Antivirus 10, Jiangmin KV Antivirus 2008, Trend Micro Internet Security 2008, Zone Alarm Security Suite 7.1.078.

In the list of programs that Do Not run after you install SP1: Iron Speed Designer 5.0.1 , Xheo Licensing 3.1, Free Allegiance 2.1.

In the list of programs that lose functionality after installing Vista Sp1 are: NYT reader 1, Rising Personal Firewall 2007, Novell ZCM Agent 10.01.

[The list is provided by Microsoft]

If you are using Vista and planning to install Service Pack one for Windows Vista (the ones that leaked out in Bit Torrent sites) , make sure that you are not running the listed programs above to ensure the security of your PC’s. I hope that there will be improvements in Vista Sp1 before they officially release it in mid-March.

Leaked Video of Windows 7 Ultimate or Modified Windows Vista?

January 26th, 2008 | 2 Comments | Posted in Technology

windows-logo.jpgWe all know about the news that Windows 7 will be coming out on the second half of next year. It is also said that an early version of the OS has been shipped to “key partners” as a Milestone 1 code drop for validation purposes. This video shows the next-gen Windows OS in action. The authenticity of this video is not confirmed. It could just be a modified Windows Vista for all I know. If this OS is really a modified Vista, the person who made this did a really good job of tweaking the OS and a poor job making the video. Or, did he tweak the video to make it look like its running faster? Real or not, you decide.
