Where I am the giveaway switches over at 3 A.M. If I'm not mistaken, it's 7 P.M. for Bubby. Regardless of time zones, it switches at the same moment for everyone everywhere, no matter what our respective clocks are reading. You then have 24 hours to grab it. The remaining time is always stated on the front page.

KompoZer provides novice web authors without any HTML experience with a tool to create web sites. It is free, easy to use yet has many features found in FrontPage and even Dreamweaver. The project strives to fix bugs in the NVU project and added new features to it. KompoZer is a continuation of the Nvu project and has corrected many bugs, improved the user interface and updated the CSS editor when compared to the 1.0 baseline. KompoZer is more stable and mature than Nvu. In March 2007 it was featured on Download.com's round up on the best free alternatives to Adobe CS3, where it was favorably compared to Adobe Dreamweaver [source Wikipedia] What's new: Developer Notes: I'm very pleased to announce that KompoZer 0.7.10 is finally available. This release corrects many bugs of Nvu 1.0 and includes a usable version of the CSS editor, CaScadeS. Unlike the 0.7.9.xxx snapshots, this release is stable and ready for end-users. KompoZer users are strongly encouraged to upgrade. Changes: - Application fixed: the extension manager is now able to use the extensions proper locales - fixed: the same source code now builds on Linux (gcc4.1), MacOSX (gcc3.5), Win32 (vs7.0) and OS/2 (?). - fixed: (win**) KompoZer and Nvu can run simultaneously (various similary bugs have been corrected) - fixed: win98 KompoZer now has its own icon in the taskbar - fixed: the icon has been changed - HTML Editor o fixed: the toolbars can be customized without relaunching KompoZer - fixed: links can be styled in wysiwyg - fixed: display a clickable label on objects, scripts and hidden form inputs ('normal' & 'HTML tags' views) - added: red dotted borders around containers ('normal' & 'HTML tags' views) - added: undo/redo buttons in the main toolbar o fixed: hiding the rulers improves speed and reliability - fixed: bug in the vertical ruler that causes Nvu/KompoZer to be stuck in 'source' mode o modified: the markup cleaner does not remove empty blocks with ID/class attributes any more - modified: the markup cleaner now considers Source and download for windows --> <a href="http://www.neowin.net/index.php?act=view&id=42335" rel="nofollow">http://www.neowin.net/index.php?act=view&id=42335</a> Other operating systems --> <a href="http://kompozer.net/" rel="nofollow">http://kompozer.net/</a> Lee on "VirtualDub v1.7.3.28191" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1570#post-9729 Sat, 01 Sep 2007 13:56:54 +0000 Lee 9729@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ VirtualDub is a video capture/processing utility for 32-bit Windows platforms (95/98/ME/NT4/2000/XP), licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). It lacks the editing power of a general-purpose editor such as Adobe Premiere, but is streamlined for fast linear operations over video. It has batch-processing capabilities for processing large numbers of files and can be extended with third-party video filters. VirtualDub is mainly geared toward processing AVI files, although it can read (not write) MPEG-1 and also handle sets of BMP images. Changelog [features added] * Added display option for showing display debugging info. * Frame rate adjustment can now be entered exactly, including as a rational fraction. * Jobs can now be reloaded for tweaking. * Capture: Added several options for fine-tuning timing issues with DirectShow-based capture drivers. * D3D: Improved bicubic algorithm for ps1.1+ capable cards. * D3DFX: Extended annotation and semantics support -- see help for details. * Hex editor: Now supports drag and drop.

(It's happened to me before). DEP Issue This only effects certain CPU's using the so called NX bit. Additionally you MUST have XP SP2, OR Windows Server 2003 with SP1 to add this mod. You need to disable data execution prevention for vtf.exe Click Start button. Click Settings. Click Control Panel. Click System. When the System Properties box comes up, you'll see many tabs up at the top. Click Advanced. In the first section of the Advanced box, you'll see "Performance" and a button labeled "Settings". Click the Settings button. You'll see another window come up for Performance Options with three tabs at the top. Click "Data Execution Prevention". By default, it's set to the top option; "Turn on DEP for essential..." Click the circle underneath that, labeled "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select:" (You'll see a message at the bottom that your pc does not support hardware DEP blah blah blah.) Click the button on the bottom labeled "Add". A box will come up labeled Open. Click that. It will probably default to showing a view of files under your profile name. At the top, where it says "Look in:" click the down arrow next to whatever folder name is inside the box. Browse to and select "vtf.exe". Double click that. You should now see that it is added to the DEP window as an exception. Click Apply on the bottom of the Performance Options box. Close all the System Properties Windows. Reboot Check if that fixes it. If not - just set the option back how it was and reboot. Secondly - try running without antivirus or antispyware type software running - they might be conflicting or blocking it (incorrectly). piscote49 on "App will not open-“Wondershare Video to Flash Encoder”" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1272#post-7254 Fri, 22 Jun 2007 12:38:32 +0000 piscote49 7254@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ Yesterday I posted (see original post below) about not being able to run "Video to Flash's" main application (VTF.exe). The other exe files (flvplayer.exe & SAFlashPlayer.exe) run fine. I have reinstalled twice & verified that I have the correct permissions in my registry. I am able to view .swf & .flv on the internet and can access Flash files with other programs. I am at a loss, and hope that someone will post a workable solution. As much as I want the problem solved so I can use the program, I want it more because of all the time I have put into trying to get it to work. It leaves a bad feeling when a piece of software beats you! Thanks. ORIGINAL POST: [I am having a problem getting todays offering, “Wondershare Video to Flash Encoder” to work. I downloaded it, activation went fine, installed it without any problem. The problem is that the main program “VTF.exe” will not open\run. The program comes with 3 applications: _VTF.exe _flvplayer.exe _SAFlashPlayer.exe The two player apps work fine, I am assuming that VTF.exe is the main program, but clicking on the shortcut or directly from the programs folder produces nothing. Nothing opens & nothing loads. I would sure like to use this application, so any help is greatly appreciated.

I've got some great customizations on it that make my web experience great every time! As for Thunderbird, or other email clients - I prefer webmail. Too many chances for viruses and malware to infect your computer when you download and open emails, or even just delete them before opening. With webmail, everything stays on the server. And IF your computer needs to be reformatted, everything is still right on the server next time you log in.

I first found tabbed browsing about 10 years ago with <a href="http://www.netcaptor.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.netcaptor.com</a> and I still use it on my laptop because the keyboard navigation is second nature to me now. I have a multi-threaded brain that tends to just dive off on tangents (or is it that I'm easily distracted) - so multiple tabs allows me to easily branch off in 10 new directions and backtrack easily, when I remember what it was I was originally.... ... what was I saying?

I loved Mozilla but it became a hog. Oh so happy when the team released Firefox as a light alternative. Haven't used Seamonkey,..I've read too many negative comments on it. No need for it here, anyhooo. I tried an early version of Thunderbird and had problems with it hanging and crashing, so I put that on the back-burner for a while. A friend installed it at Christmastime, it crashed and she lost her address book and saved mail. Now she does backups, haahaa! Ahh computer nerds,..will they ever learn? I'm happy knowing south of nothing. Tabbed browsing is horses-for-courses. I didn't like it at first - Can't live without it now.

Devout fan since its inception. I have to say that Firefox is the best thing since sliced milk (ahh come on, don't tell me you missed it!). Better than Opera, and leaves IE dead in the water. Feature packed tabbed browser, security enhanced as mentioned in above posts (Switch Proxy & Tor plug-ins also available), with an abundance of themes and more plug-ins than you can shake a sheik at. Run your media player directly from the browser with Foxy Tunes - Pluck web video from YouTube, Meta Cafe, etc with Video Downloader or alternatives - Forecost Fox for local weather-casts - Use Fox Lingo to translate foreign websites - Footie Fox for live European and English football scores (just for Lee) - Fox Clocks for a 'mouse-over' of world times - Flash Got Downloader.....And that would not fill one page of what must be 100 or more pages of plug-ins (but who's counting). Tab Mix Plus, All-In-One Sidebar, Add Bookmarks Here, Update Notifier and Quick Restart give your browser added functionality and ease of use. Check it out...

It's just super! One of the best Add-ons to install is of course, Adblock Plus with which you can easily remove all ads you choose to. But you can also use it to see exactly which scripts any web page is loading and eventually block it. Another recommended add-on is Flashblock because too much flash on a page is not only annoying, but it eats you CPU power. G.O.

The award-winning Web browser is better than ever. Browse the Web with confidence. Firefox protects you from viruses, spyware and pop-ups. Enjoy improvements to performance, ease of use and privacy. It's easy to import your favorites and settings and get started. The latest version delivers easier navigation for everyone, including those who are visually or motor-impaired. Firefox is the first browser to support DHTML accessibility, which, when enabled by Web authors, allows rich Web applications to be read aloud. Users may navigate with keystrokes rather than mouse clicks, reducing the tabbing required to navigate documents such as spreadsheets. Firefox 1.5 (Windows version) is also the first browser to meet US federal government requirements that software be easily accessible to users with physical impairments.

My problem's completely odd, it seems, and maybe it has nothing to do with the download or program and everything to do with my computer, but here goes: I've successfully downloaded, unzipped, installed, and activated the program. All of that stuff works fine. My problem is that when I try to open the program (AVS Audio Editor) from anywhere on my computer, it simply doesn't open. It runs as a process in the task manager, but not as an application. The program does everything but actually open on my computer. Most oddly, I am able to open the program from the installation menu by checking the box for "Open AVS Audio Editor Now" or whatever it says (in the final stage of the installation). The program opens and I can use it, but once I close it, I can't get it to open again. The only way I can seem to open it is by installing the program again and checking that option again. I can't seem to open it any other way. I'm not completely computer illiterate, but I don't get it. I'm really hoping one of you guys can help me out.
