Users would then have to search the internet for these tools and download them separately. The search for the right program can be daunting for some users, and takes valuable time. Lunarsoft is proud to announce the release of the Anti-Malware Toolkit – a program that...
With the deal signed and ink drying, you may be wondering about the details behind the historic Microsoft and Yahoo search agreement, which may finally begin to put some pressure on Google’s dominance in search. We break it down for you. The Basics Yahoo will adopt Microsoft’s new Bing search engine. Yahoo will take over premium search advertising on both Yahoo! Search and Bing....
Microsoft today announced that Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 have hit the Release to Manufacturing (RTM) milestone. The software giant still has a lot of work to do, but the bigger responsibility now falls to OEMs that must get PCs ready, Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) that are testing their new apps, and Independent Hardware Vendors (IHVs) that are preparing their new hardware....
Europeans will not be able to directly upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7. Microsoft yesterday detailed upgrade paths from old Windows editions to its upcoming Windows 7 OS, and confirmed that UK Vista users will need to do a clean install of Windows 7. Microsoft is expected to ship special versions of Windows 7 to European customers, but the versions will need a...
Kevin Turner, Microsoft’s Chief Operating Officer, told partners during his Worldwide Partner Conference keynote not only about the upcoming Microsoft Stores this fall to be placed near Apple stores but also about how Apple’s lawyers wanted Microsoft to take down their Laptop Hunter ads. Here’s the story he told (keep in mind that it’s coming from a Microsoft executive): And so we’ve been running...

Called “Hohm” (presumably, a play on the combination of “home and “Ohm”), the product will take advantage of smart grid data on energy use when it’s available. Even when it’s not, however, Hohm will allow users to input their own details and share the results of their efficiency efforts, adding...

As blogger Ed Bott accurately pointed out, those who drew conclusions about the multitude of zeroes in the build number were not taking into account the more esoteric meanings such numbers have historically held within Microsoft. So yesterday’s news of volume licensing...
Developers on the “Shiretoko” track for Mozilla’s new open source Firefox 3.5 Web browser now have very good reason to expect a ship date for the first round of bug fixes and vulnerabilities. A very big vulnerability has turned up in just the wrong place: a public site for posting exploits. The problem is a new permutation of an old exploit technique that, ironically,...
The Lunarsoft Forums are fixed after a brief downtime. There was a pruning issue in Invision Power Board 3.0.0 that caused the sessions table to not clear out. This causes the database to continually grow until it would crash due to running out of memory. This in turn took the forums completely offline. Now, a patch has been applied and should resolve the issue....

While the root cause is unknown at this time, unfortunately we cannot offer a temporary solution until a fix has been found and applied. After a fix has been applied we will give the all clear signal. As we looked...
