Service Pack 1 Improvements
User Account Control One of the most maligned features of Windows Vista has been the User Account Control (UAC). Designed to protect operating system integrity, UAC caused frustration with what many users considered over-prompting to complete a user action. If you were one of the frustrated, check out the very short video Windows Vista SP1 UAC improvements to see how that prompting has been reduced.
Interview with Vista UAC Product Manager Austin Wilson
Austin Wilson provides insight into why UAC is the way it is. He clears up what UAC really is, and answers some hard questions like why should a consumer or an IT pro even bother to run UAC. Additionally, he shows us how and why an IT pro can still use UAC and not get prompted, as well as giving us insight into future plans for UAC.
Keith Combs’ Blahg: Windows Vista 30, Rootkits 0
The UAC is actually there for reason, as Keith Combs points out in this post. It can stop rootkits before they start. Keith also points to a four-minute screencast to demonstrate the features of UAC. Also check out Understanding and Configuring User Account Control in Windows Vista.
Performance There is another perception that Windows Vista underperforms in every area of the system when compared to Windows XP. Without getting into the differences in hardware requirements between Windows Vista and its predecessor, this screencast - Windows Vista SP1 outperforms Windows XP SP2 in file copy - shows the under-the-covers process traces of just how it achieves its performance lead running on the same hardware as Windows XP.

Online Gold rush!
Do people still make money online?
I sat down in my living room one day and that was the question that came to my mind. The answer is YES, the internet gold rush is not over, in fact, it's just starting!
My only little concern is about the fraudsters who are taking the opportunity to lie and swindle innocent people.
The internet can be the best place for information, education and wealth multiplication and yet it can be the worst place to be. Let me say I am a living witness of the internet gold rush, I am not a good writer so please kindly bear with me.
My first advice to anybody out there who wants to be successful online is follow some basic rules which I have outline below; it will help you a lot. I was so curious in knowing what works from what does not work so I used my keyword resercher tool shareware to investigate which one of the home based businesses are true but I was disappointed to see that most of them are liars, fake and again; opportunist! The real ones always have a catch, you must generate a large number of websites to be able to make something out of nothing, trust me, I've been there but the only one and proven system is what I will discuss as you read on, you can also get a complete e-Course on the system from here
http://www.moneymoneymachine.com/
Below is a list of what I did when I first started my own web home based business, you can follow the lead if you wish, but I can assure you I decided to give it out because I have been able to generate a stable income from affiliates, I travel almost every 3months around the world from the money I generated and still generating from this home based business. For those of you who know how much it cost to fly to Africa, you could imagine how much I make before I can afford to make that kind of flight to Nigeria and most countries in the west African coastal region almost 4 times a year.
Now let's get started without wasting any more time.
5 STEPS TO SUCCESS
I. STEP ONE: GET ORGANIZED
First you need to get yourself organized, make up a very good workspace either at your home or at your rented office; I suggest you should start from home to cut down on expenses.
To start an internet business, you need a very good name, so do your research and get a name that would serve as a keyword on its own and as your destination in life (what you wish to achieve), you could use my recomended keyword reserch software again to complete this task.
I am recommending this software tool because this was the software that I used and it worked wonders for me.
Depending on what you finally made up your mind to do, either you wish to educate people online like myself or you simply want to get involved in the world of e-commerce, you still need a form of research tool and which I recommend in my e-Book.
To find how deep your main keyword header can go, for those of you who are lawyers or legal advisers, I recommend you use research sites like Lexis/Nexis, play around with your imagination, ask yourself what you want if you were at the user end of the computer, ask your friends questions, ask your wife like I always do, ask your spouse, ask everybody close to you questions on what kind of things they would search for on the internet if they were browsing or shopping or you can make it easy on yourself and ask your research tool again and let your imagination go wild. This software was developed solely for making researchers lives easy and I say you should take advantage of that purpose.
II. PREPARE YOUR RECIPE
Secondly, like very well cooked and delicious food, you need the best recipe. In this case you need a very good web host to allow you upload files almost every time you make changes to your website. We are talking about a very good transfer volume in a month, trust me you don't want to rob Peter to pay Paul. I recommend Host gator or 1and1.com, I have been using both of the companies for as long as four (IV) years. People have different web host out there but I know they are reliable, but again as any other business, they have their own ups and downs, so please use your judgment to make your decision, I am only recommending you based on my own personal experience. It took me time to discover them after I wasted so much money on other web host companies because I have so many websites, I use them as money machines, I'll share that with you later in this chapter.
After deciding on your web host, the next step is to design your website. You have two choices, either designs your website yourself or contracts it to a professionals like http://www.ctwebdesigners.net/ for customized templates and customized solutions.
In the process of preparing your recipe, I would like you to meditate on what your main dreams are and what you intend to achieve within a short period or long period of time.
Remember, some wise men once said and I quote
1. “The world is changing very fast. Big will not beat small anymore.
It will be the fast beating the slow.”
- Rupert Murdoch
2. "Lack of money is no obstacle. Lack of an idea is an obstacle."
- Ken Hakuta
3. "Small opportunities are often the beginning of large enterprises."
- Demosthenes
4. “Drive thy business or it will drive thee."
- Benjamin Franklin
I will stop here for today as I have some clients I have to attend to, see you around soon! Meanwhile, kindly check out my special software promotion.

Your Domain name is being watched!
Hi everybody
I experienced something very disturbing while trying to register another domain name online as I use them for so many promotions. While I was checking the right domain names to use for my website, a special kind of software was tracking all the names I tried and dropped, I never knew until the next day when I was ready to register the name I wrote down on my list, I discovered it has been registered by someone else, the exact name, I was shocked!
I tracked the name back to the registrant and I found out that it was Go-daddy's special tracking and registration software that did it, I was really mad and upset so please watch out, do not check the domain names if your are not yet ready to register them. This is a friendly word of advice.
Below is my recomended Webhost, I wish you luck
