I know that Apple has been expending a lot of hot air telling anyone who will listen that the new iTunes pricing regime is a good thing for consumers. I know that it reckons that for every song which is ramped up to the new 99p (here in the UK) …

Kid Rock, The Beatles, AC/DC and Garth Brooks would make for a bizarre and unlikely concert line up, yet they share something in common: they are the last men standing as far as making their music available on iTunes. In the case of Kid Rock, he is apparently refusing to …

Hi I'm writing a site that allows users to download documents securely stored on the network off of the web server. I'm using a com object on the server that we've been using here for ages that fetches the file from the network in a binary stream thus preventing user …

I recently acquired a dedicated hosting site from godaddy.com. I have a registered domain [url]www.realfucknlove.com[/url] that i use with my google blogger account.

The thread that asks for programs worth downloading has provided me (and I'm sure others) with excellent sources for improving their computer experience.

I am looking for a good Microsoft Office/Offices. I just had my computer upgraded, but they didn't leave any of my offices. I have Microsoft Windows XP with the 3 pack. I have a CD but it is only for a trial. Since I had a developers data was craming …

Hi, my Outlook will not open after downloading and running the latest service packs yesterday. Outlook opens into a tiny window, first it said Microsoft SEtup Bootstrapper is not working, now it only opens in a tiny window and then closes saying, cant open Outlook.

If piracy and illegal downloaders really are killing the music industry, how come more singles have been sold this year than ever before and people who file-share spend more money on legal releases than those who do not file-share? I have to admit, it's not been a good week to …

I have an .exe that I want people to be able to download and run on Vista. It needs to run as admin. I have a web page with a 'Download' button. Assume I am logged in as an admin. I click the 'Download' button and IE8 asks whether to …

I ask because according to the latest data, there would seem to be an increasing number of working pirates around these days. The trouble is that they can be hard to spot as they do not tend to go for the Captain Jack look nor sport a long beard, come …

Recently, I downloaded this file converter thing from Microsoft. Everything was fine until I ran the installer. Suddenly, this message popped up, and made everything close: [URL="http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll16/Rammstool/ERROR.jpg"]http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll16/Rammstool/ERROR.jpg[/URL] This has also happened to me when I downloaded a copy of 3dsMax 7 and 2010.

Some people like to get their free Microsoft products by adopting the [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry4255.html"]eye patch and a parrot approach[/URL] via sites such as The Pirate Bay. Some of us, however, rather like the idea of getting Windows 7 totally free, totally legally, and direct from Microsoft for good measure. Yes, I …

Microsoft has made a double whammy of Windows 7 update announcements. The first concerns a hotfix for a bug that could "cause some application failures on the English version of Windows 7 Release Candidate 32-bit Ultimate" while the second brings news of the arrival of as many as 10 'fake' …

Apple has started the countdown to the billionth app to be downloaded from the App Store. The company has put up a live [URL="http://www.apple.com/itunes/billion-app-countdown/"]countdown counter on the web[/URL] which is spinning so fast I am surprised it has not flown off the page. Mind you, when you consider that in …

Barmy Steve Ballmer, [URL="http://www.itwire.com/content/view/20745/53/"]sometime monkey dancer[/URL] and full time Microsoft top dog now that Bill Gates has gone, has surprised us all by informing the world that January 13th will not be [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry3614.html"]Windows 7 day[/URL] as predicted.

The iPhone App Store has been open for just five months, since July 11th to be precise. Yet in this time, so an Apple advert running in the New York Times informs us, no less than 300 million applications have been downloaded. Now those are two hugely important numbers, 300 …

Researchers tell us that, in the UK market, there were some 1.5 billion 'legal' music downloads last year. That's covering all bases, different devices and download services, but discounting the illegal file sharing trade. The Goddess alone knows how big the figure would be if you factored in dodgy P2P …

With Father's Day here in the UK fast approaching (hint for my own kids: it's on Sunday!) research published today by the world's 2nd largest digital music store, [URL="http://www.emusic.com"]eMusic[/URL], suggests that nearly half of us lie about the music we have on our iPod. It seems that us Dads are …

A member of Skype staff posting in the Linux support forum there seems to have taken a course in customer relations from <insert your least favourite company here> if his responses to criticism of the lack of real world development of the Linux version of Skype, compared to Windows development, …

There are not many things, it has to be said, that a Linux user would covet of his Windows using neighbor. Skype is quite possibly one of them though, but not for much longer. The first meaningful development for the Linux Skype client in almost a year has arrived in …

Accusations are nothing new to Microsoft -- they continue to battle various groups in Europe and Asia for various antitrust violations. That is nothing new. What is new is that South Korea continues investigating, and Microsoft replied with a threat. "It might be necessary to withdraw Windows from the Korean …
