“764 users, 174 products, 33 suppliers, 1 Clarion Desktop.”

Microsoft Corp. today unveiled a version of its tool set for Web and multimedia designers that includes the first native support for its Silverlight technology across all of the products in the suite.

Expression Studio 2 includes five products: Expression Web for Web design; Expression Blend for multimedia and 3-D design; Expression Design for graphic design; Expression Media for storing and sharing multimedia assets; and Expression Encoder for video encoding. The new release marks the first time that Encoder is in the suite as a full-fledged product, said Wayne Smith, Microsoft group product manager for Expression Studio.

In the new release, all of the products now have support for Silverlight, Microsoft’s multimedia runtime for running live and streaming video on the Web. Previously, only Expression Web had support for Silverlight, but it was very limited, Smith said.

xpy is a small tool which disables the default threats of a Windows XP installation. Besides disabling Windows and some of its components to communicate with Microsoft servers, xpy improves privacy settings and your systems security.

Features:
- Disable Windows calling home
- Disable questionable services
- Disarm Internet Explorer
- Disarm Windows Media Player
- Remove Windows Messenger
- Improve privacy and security
- Improve performance

Though xpy is smaller than 100 kilobytes, it can close serious threats (i.e. DCOM) on long distance, where large service-packs can only protect you until a new security hole has been found.

Applications that make it easy to share and collaborate are often of much more use to web workers than they are to standard office workers. Especially if you work online with colleagues at disparate locations, some of the best collaboration tools you can choose are free. In this post, I’ll round up several examples that you can count on.

A flaw in the way the Firefox and Opera browsers handle an image file could allow an attacker to see what Web sites a person has visited.

The problem concerns how the two browsers handle a “.BMP,” or bitmap, image file, according to an advisory written by Gynvael Coldwind of Vexillium.org, who posted a video illustrating the problem.

The database of all Clarion related sites is building up itself each day. And I have set the system to only include Clarion related sites only. This is the major difference between searching Google and ClarionPost.

ClarionPost is actually the same as Google, Yahoo, MSN or whatever search engines out there, it will comb the Internet and update itself.
It will reindex base on the timeframe I set. For example, Softvelocity had just updated quite a number of documents within its website, and it is already updated into the database.

How to search www.clarionpost.com?

For example, if you want to know about Icetips, simply key-in the word ‘icetips’ into the search box.
For example, if you want to know about Icetips templates, simply key-in the word ‘icetips templates’ into the search box.
For example, if you want to know about Icetips SQL templates, simply key-in the word ‘icetips SQL’ into the search box.
For example, if you want to locate the ‘Better SQL series’ from Dan Pressnel, simply key-in the word ‘better SQL’ into the search box.

Thanks again.

As everyone knows, ClarionPost is located at http://www.clarionpost.com.

I had just fully automated the ClarionPost. I had only included http://www.softvelocity.com and http://www.icetips.com for a BETA test.

I will be including all other related sites, and ClarionPost will crawl those sites included for information. If you are a 3rd Party vendor and could not locate your product in the search, please wait for the crawler to get the job done.

And… just ignore the looks for the time being, I will polish the CSS later.

PS
You may enter these words to test out:
icetips
clarion
softvelocity

Thanks.
