			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Being a webdesigner means that I have a lot of video converting to do, and that I get quite a lot of formats that in the end needs to be converted mainly to flash.<br />
<span id="more-380"></span></p>
<p>
My turn of fortune came the time that I had to convert a realplayer file to flash. That one really hurt and kept me looking for answers for a couple of days until I found Super. Their headline says that they can convert for free what commercial programs cannot convert, and they were right.</p>
<p>
Actually, super is a interface to quite a few codecs and encoders, and whilst not an interface that will blow your mind with its design, it gets the job done amazingly fast and without fuss.</p>
<p>
I&#8217;ve uploaded a copy of this amazing program for download. If you are interested in using this program, and are struggling, leave a comment and I will assist.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking for a free download of the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet program can be a dangerous task. Luckily there is a free alternative that is just as good as excel, called Open Office.<span id="more-304"></span></p>
<h6>Why is downloading a free copy of Excel dangerous?</h6>
<p>Microsoft is the number one target for the guys that writes virus programs. One way of spreading those viruses is through these free download sites. You will only know if the copy you downloaded is infected, once you caught the virus on your computer.</p>
<h6>Isn&#8217;t free software inferior?</h6>
<p>There is a perception that free software is inferior, but that is not always true.  Definitely not in the case of <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/" target="_blank">Open Office</a>. Open Office was developed by Sun Microsystems who is one of the largest suppliers of Open Source Software. Open Office is actively being developed and have just released their newest version Called Open Office 3.</p>
<h6>Will it be difficult to install and learn?</h6>
<p>I recently gave my mother (65 years of age with a fear of anything technical) a copy to install and use. She got it installed without any hassle, and started to work with it traight away. The look and feel is much like Excel and getting used to the software is very easy.</p>
<h6>Benefits of Open Office</h6>
<p>The biggest benefits of Open office is the following:</p>
<p>1. You are getting a whole suite of software for free including a spreadsheet, wordprocessor and presentation program.</p>
<p>2. You can easily open Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, and wiil be able to save spreadsheets in Microsoft Office Format so that you can send your spreadsheets to other users.</p>
<p>3. Open Office creates PDF documents from your spreadsheets with the click of a Button, and you will be able to send people an uneditable document in stead of a spreadsheet. With a Pdf it is not nessecary to print your spreadsheet and fax it, you can just email the PDF to the recipient and they can print it on their side.</p>
<p>4. Excellent support for graphs</p>
<p>5. All the advanced features that Excel have.</p>
<p>6. Open Office is Updated frequently, and the updates are free of charge. You&#8217;ll always have the latest version without paying anything.</p>
<h6>Where can I get it?</h6>
<p>Open Office can be downloaded from their site and have full support for users.</p>
<p>Click to access Open Office <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>MS Excel is part and parcel of our daily lives, and any help that one can get to tame this beast will definately be a plus. I&#8217;ve been using ASAP&#8217;s add on for quite a number of years now, still find it difficult to believe that this handy utility is actually free. I must digress that using Excel without ASAP is becoming impossible. Here is the top 5 uses that I have for ASAP:<span id="more-218"></span></p>
<h6><strong>1. Colour alternate rows automatically.</strong></h6>
<p>Colouring rows (or columns for that matter) is not difficult, most will agree. What makes me want to climb up the wall, is the fancy footwork needed when you delete a row or column. Excel somply do not understand that you want to keep some rows coloured and some not. With ASAP utilities it is simple. You can set up the rules, and it will keep the rows or colums coloured regarding of row or column deletion.</p>
<h6><strong>2. Deleting spaces in data.</strong></h6>
<p>Merging columns of data can often make a laborious process very short, problem is that there are more than often spaces in your data that makes the process difficult, and uses quite a lot of time to clean up. Using the asap utilities, it is easy to strip cells of data from spaces in one easy command.</p>
<h6>3. Deleting and inserting rows</h6>
<p>Ever tried to insert a new row after every existing row in Excel. Well try it with 200 rows of data. With ASAP utilities it is as easy as 123.  You can simply set up your parameters and it will do the work for you in one go.</p>
<h6>4. Converting text to numbers</h6>
<p>I commonly import amounts of data from csv files, and more than often the numbers gets imported as text. With ASAP I can easily convert numbers formatted as text, back to numbers.</p>
<h6>5. ASAP utilities paper saver</h6>
<p>It happens ever so often that I have to or three columns of data that I wish to print. With Excel it will print this data on quite a few pages, wasting paper. ASAP&#8217;s paper saving macro, allows me to split the colums easily and intelligently and then to print the data on as few pages as possible, saving me a lot of paper.</p>
<p>ASAP&#8217;s got litterally thousands of macro&#8217;s in it&#8217;s arsenal and it is a easy install, and will open on your taskbar everytime you open excel once installed. This is really one of the super tools that every Excel user should have.</p>
<p>The website can be found at <a href="http://www.asap-utilities.com" target="_blank">www.asap-utilities.com</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Windows Media Player remains part of the core OS. Windows 7 will ship with Windows Media Player 12, which includes some surprising new features.</p>
<p><span id="more-163"></span></p>
<p>The UI itself is brighter and lighter than WMP11. Some buttons and toolbar items have been moved around, but the experience should be pretty familiar to users of version 11. What does represent a big change is the removal of the Now Playing button, which in WMP11 switches to a view showing the current playlist.</p>
<p>This is because WMP12 completely separates library management from what&#8217;s currently playing, with two distinct player modes; Now Playing view, and Library view. Library view contains all the library manipulation features that should be familiar from WMP11. Now Playing view contains the current playlist, visualizations, and videos.</p>
<p>There are plenty of small refinements, like automatic previewing (hovering on any song plays a 15-second preview of the song), and the Library view now shows all media types in the tree simultaneously (WMP11 can show audio or video or TV or Pictures; now they&#8217;re all on display).</p>
<p>WMP12 includes support for H.264 video, AAC audio, and both Xvid and DivX video, in addition to all the formats supported by WMP11 in Vista (MPEG2, WMV, MP3, etc.). With these new codecs, WMP should support the majority of video found on the Internet out of the box.</p>
<p>WMP12 can play most iTunes media. It&#8217;s only &#8220;most&#8221; because, of course, Apple won&#8217;t license its FairPlay DRM to third parties, so WMP is unable to play DRM-protected iTunes Store tracks.</p>
<p>You can Download the new Media Player From <a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/96970720/WMP12.2008.rar">here</a></p>

<p>Lavasoft AdAware Anniversary Edition promise to be significantly lighter and faster than previous versions. <span id="more-12"></span>They use 74% less memory than Ad-Aware 2008, only uses 18% of the CPU during scans (which they say is much less than competitor products like AVG, Kaspersky, Norton, and PC Tools) and scans 36 MB per second which is like 4 times faster than AVG.</p>
<p>Lavasoft is widely used and respected in the industry, and to be able to download a free copy of this piece of software really is a great bonus. Just remember that when you decide to install it, that all previous editions of Lavasoft AdAware software will be uninstalled.</p>
