I been seeing a strange quirk pop up in Vista time to time. It has a strange habit of forgetting things. I have two prime examples, the other day, when I resumed from Sleep mode in the morning and started outlook, Vista popped up to tell me that Windows Firewall was blocking Outlook and would I like to let it through. What is odd about this, is that I dont run with Windows Firewall enabled, and when I checked the settings, it was still disabled.
I am now running Windows Vista Business on a shiny new PC (Office 2007 too!). First impressions are all positive, visuals are clean and modern, IIS7 looks great, gadgets are surprisingly useful.
A major update has gone live on www.ht.com.au today. Full details of the update are available here. Be sure to try out the new drill down options, very cool.
Wow, great new website for OzFox 2007 (link). Now I just need to sort out a registration :)
We had a good meeting in Sydney last night, a good turn out considering both Craig and Andrew were absent (a first?) The powerpoint from my session, plus a few code snippets I used (a couple will not work as they have external dependencies) can be found here. Sadly a lot of the best content came up during the many questions asked in the session, so if you were not there, you miss out. For lots more information and code snippets / timings, check out the Performance topics on the Fox Wiki (link)
Also remember to check out Oz Fox and sign up.
