Upgrade your Windows Live Messenger Service

We are committed to providing a safe, secure and positive experience for our more than 300 million customers across the globe using Windows Live Messenger
every month.

To deliver on that commitment, beginning on August 25, we started asking our customers using versions 8.1, 8.5 and 14.0 to upgrade to the newest version of Messenger. The upgrade will provide customers with the latest software updates including code fixes and feature enhancements, as well address vulnerabilities discussed in the Microsoft Security Advisory 973882 that existed in previous versions of Windows Live Messenger.

The upgrade process will take place in a phased approach over the next several weeks:

First Phase, Optional Upgrade:
The optional upgrade will happen in two stages:
Starting Aug. 25, customers using versions 8.1 or 8.5 were asked to upgrade their client.
Starting early Oct., all customers using versions 14.0 (but not the latest release 14.0.8089) will be asked to upgrade their client.
The upgrade at this time is optional. Customers who haven’t upgraded during the optional phase will be required to do so during the second phase.

Second Phase, Mandatory Upgrade:
The mandatory upgrade will happen in three stages:
Starting mid-Sept., all customers using Messenger 8.1 or 8.5 will be required to upgrade their version of Windows Live Messenger.
Starting late Oct., all customers using Messenger 14.0 will be required to upgrade their version of Windows Live Messenger.
To ensure that we are protecting customers, those who do not administer the upgrade will not be able to sign in to Messenger after this time.

Please Note: It will take several weeks for the upgrade process to be completed, as the upgrade will be rolled out to customers over the course of several weeks.

Below are some examples of the prompts that you will encounter during the upgrade process.

Want to upgrade now? You don’t have to wait for the notification. In fact, we encourage you to download the updated version of Messenger right now by visiting http://download.live.com .

Samsung Laptop N120 Review

Anybody's first look on this Samsung N120 would be just buy it .It looks Superb.It is also nicely crafted and finished, and its very light weighted too.

The keyboard department has done really well job for fast typers like me to access each key with the same flow.The Build is awesome to look on, it

is wider than the normal lappy and it has the reason for that .And the reason is to increase the user experience while typing .

I think the black one looks more good than white one.But both are equally well perfomable, when terms come on performance.

I had just been about looks ,now some techchy points.As all choclates are sweets but some sticks on your teeths.But this chocolates are very good .Some time it is very difficult to find the best combination of “Looks+function”= My Laptop

But this lappy have both of them,a perfect Combination of looks and performance.This Samsung N120 has Intel Atom N270 / 1.6 GHz Processor ,The cache L2 memory is 512kb which is very good ,I always want that L2 Cache on such small machines.HDD is also of 160 GB – Serial ATA-150 – 5400 rpm..Now some thing about gaming it has Intel GMA 950 Dynamic Video Memory Technology 3.0 ,Which is good for gaming,with one GB of RAM..!!! Looks Exciting..!!

Gaming on with a smaller lappy a netbook wow...Diiferent Experience.

The most important features on which i got shocked is its battery .It is Long lasting Battery upto 10 hrs.Oh! my god this is damn good for me and second thing is its speaker ,2.1 speaker on both sides of screen and also below is a dedicated subwoofer.

It has lots of features for one and all you can see some.
Before having a hands on it lets have a look on the CNET review, reviewed by the famous Dan Ackerman (of CNET).just see his review by clicking here.

Lastly if you are planning to buy this Samsung N120 ,please tell me your opinion about this.Your Comments on this post are valuable.

The good: Giant keyboard (for a Netbook) and 2.1 speaker system.

The bad: Bit more expensive than most Netbooks.

The bottom line: Part of Samsung's second generation of Netbooks, the N120 offers a generous keyboard and some unexpected audio power.

Some more ratings which I personally feel:
Design: 8.3
Features: 8.5
Performance: 8.5
Battery life: 10.0
Service and support: 9.5
Overall score: 9.1

Windows 7 ActiveX Killbits

Microsoft has released two downloads containing ActiveX Killbits for the 32-bit and the 64-bit flavors of Windows 7 Release Candidate Build 7100.

The Cumulative Security Update for ActiveX Killbits for Windows 7 went live on the Microsoft Download Center on July 14th, 2009 and are currently available for users running the RC Build 7100 release of the next iteration of the Windows client. Although labeled a cumulative security update, fact is that the ActiveX Killbits are not designed to patch a vulnerability in Windows 7. Users must regard them instead as a defense-in-depth measure and nothing more.

The killbits released on July 14 are part of a patch that came to resolve a Critical vulnerability in the Microsoft Video ActiveX Control. The Redmond company informed the public about the issue in the first half of June 2009. The security vulnerability comes with a Critical rating for all supported editions of Windows XP, but just Moderate for Windows Server 2003. The flaw does not affect Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2. Nonetheless, deploying the Killbits is a healthy preventive measure that will increase the level of security.

The Redmond company advised even customers of non-affected platforms to apply the security update. The fix is designed to render useless any possible future new vectors of attack. Although the vulnerability was privately reported to Microsoft, attacks with exploits targeting the specific flaw were detected in the wild.

“A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Video ActiveX Control, msvidctl.dll. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a specially crafted Web page. When a user views the Web page, the vulnerability could allow remote code execution. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the logged on user,” Microsoft informed.
