* Reduced latency and improved precision: In DU Meter 4.0, graph latency is reduced by 500ms in average. Also, DU Meter Stopwatch precision is enhanced.
* Finer granularity of saved historic data: DU Meter 4.0 uses a real database engine, which allows for finer granularity of reports and alerts. Hourly network traffic reports are available.
* Improved network traffic reports: DU Meter 4.0 has fully resizeable and sortable traffic reports, which can be exported to many different file formats (XML and Adobe PDF were added in this version, and reports in other formats have been improved too).
* Charting capability: The DU Meter 4.0 reports module includes a customizable network traffic volume chart.
* Periodic reports auto-generation: DU Meter can now generate reports automatically, either hourly, daily or monthly.
* Greatly expanded alerts capability: long and short term, more traffic or less, incoming, outgoing or combined traffic, time span from seconds to month.
* Receive alerts via e-mail: DU Meter 4.0 can deliver traffic volume alerts via email. Great for “set and forget” parental control.
* Better selection of monitored network interfaces: Several network interfaces can be selected at once, full compatibility DU Meter Screenshots with IPv6 networks, and simplified selection of interfaces on Windows Vista, which defaults to all adapters but does not count the same traffic twice.
* Full Windows Vista compatibility: DU Meter 4.0 is fully compatible with Windows Vista, including running under limited user account, and works correctly when User Account Control (UAC) is enabled.
* Windows sidebar gadget: DU Meter 4.0 includes a gadget for Windows Sidebar (part of Windows Vista) which allows seamless integration with your desktop.
* DU Meter system service: DU Meter 4.0 employs a Windows system service to collect network traffic statistics. Therefore it will work correctly even if nobody is using the computer, or when the DU Meter application is not running, or when several people are using the same computer at once.
* Improved security model: When the user lacks administrative privileges, system-wide DU Meter settings cannot be changed. Therefore secure installation of DU Meter is possible, which, along with delivery of network traffic alerts, allows for unobtrusive and privacy-sensitive parental or management control.
* Database management: Backup and restore data, or delete portions of the data stored in the DU Meter database.
* Improved presentation: A color scheme which blends better with Windows XP or Vista desktop, including better use of screen real estate.
* Better integration with other programs: The DU Meter engine can be used by other 3rd party programs, via COM interfaces.
* Still light system resources usage: Despite all these improvements, DU Meter still takes very little system resources
* Many other improvements and bug fixes. by fake_world

Dual-Boot Delight with Portable Vista boot Pro
How To Share Your System With Vista & Windows XP

ItÂ’s been years since selecting a single Windows operating system for your computer has been such a tough decision. Windows XP offers the best overall speed, best notebook battery life, and best hardware and software compatibility.
Windows Vista, on the other hand, offers a slick interface, DirectX 10 graphics, potentially better security, and compatibility thatÂ’s becoming better each month.
But the best choice might be not choosing at all: With just a little planning and effort, you can have both WinXP and Vista installed at the same time on the same computer, with a convenient OS (operating system) selection menu appearing at boot time to let you choose. WeÂ’ll cover how to add Vista to WinXP (and remove it if youÂ’ve changed your mind), how to add WinXP to Vista, and go over licensing issues.

Add WinXP To Vista

Most new computers now have Vista preloaded, but adding WinXP to such a system is no more difficult than adding Vista to an older machine, with one catch: YouÂ’ll need to track down all the drivers WinXP needs for your new hardware.

VistaBootPro creates a boot menu for Vista users who want the option of booting Windows XP.

Steps:

1)Vista is preinsatalled on u r system,lets say on Drive A.
2)Go 4 a bootable Cd of XP and install Xp on Drive B.
3)Now When U restart U r system,U r System will boot into XP.
4)V.IMP Install Microsoft .Net frame 2.0. or higher.If u dont hav ask for me 2 upload.
5)V.IMP Load all Drivers after that i.e sound driver,display driver,etc.
6)Now open PortableVista Boot Pro which is saved on U r USB or any drive lets say C.
7)When u open it will ask 2 back up dont go 4 this.
8)click on system bootloader,check mark(tick) “window vista boot loader” and
“all Driver”.Then Click Install Bootloader.
9).Click open “Manage OS entries”,in this screen u will be able to see both OS
listed click on each OS and in Change boot drive option 4 each operating system that is both XP and Vista Select drive name on which u r vista is installed. V.IMPNow Click On save Changes.
Eg. if vista is installed on drive A: ,In manage OS option for both microsoft xp and vista ,Set boot drive to A: only.

Now REboot U R system U will get the option 2 select OS for booting.
Write all this STEps on a paper or save in a notepad in U r drive
2 help u when installing.
Remember
This steps are only 4 if u have vista already installed.
Secondly follow the process Step by step To enjoy Dual boot.
Dont miss any step.
Before installing save all U r Xp drivers if u dnt have one. with
driver collector.Copy this vista boot pro to USb or Ur hard drive.
Copy all these Steps in notepad or note it down.

100% satisfaction guaranteed.

Achieve stunning results in less time with Autodesk 3ds Max 9 software. Accelerate your creative workflow and improve your working efficiency with enhanced animation and rendering tools. 3ds Max leverages the latest technology advancements, such as 64-bit workstations, to help you work with ever-increasing amounts of data and more complex scenes. Bring 3D film effects to the big screen. Generate realistic characters for a top-selling game. Create rich and complex design visualization. Autodesk 3ds Max 9 3D animation, rendering and modeling software lets game developers, design visualization professionals, and visual effects artists maximize their productivity and tackle challenging animation projects.

Features Include:

* Easily Render Realistic Scenes – mental ray® 3.5 software adds powerful rendering functionality to 3ds Max 9. Create photorealistic skies based on the position of the sun with Physical Sun and Sky mental ray shader. New Architectural and Design shaders make it easier for designers and architects to create effects such as blurred reflections, frosted glass, and glossy car paint. The ability to create bump mapping on glossiness only and to simulate round corners and soft edges makes objects appear even more natural and true to life.
* mental ray 3.5 Core – mental ray 3.5 adds a simplified user interface for working with Final Gather. It also has a unified indirect lighting model that provides consistent results when switching between different 3ds Max radiosity modes.
* Performance Optimizations – Core performance enhancements have been made to 3ds Max 9 to maximize your productivity and accelerate your creative workflow. For example, enjoy greater viewport interactivity when working with dense meshes and switch between high-res and low-res bitmap proxies to allow for better interaction.
* Layered Animation – The ability to place animation into separate layers allows you to easily tweak dense and complex animations. Layers can be turned on or off to evaluate an animation, can blend new keys with existing motion, and allow for a full range of adjustments without having to modify the key frames of the animated object.
* Character Animation Workflow Improvements – Craft and refine your character animation more easily with numerous enhancements to Biped. For example, you can now move keys past each other and work in negative frames. This saves numerous steps when tweaking a Biped animation and is particularly useful when trying to reverse an animation, since one can now negatively scale an animation range.
* Pro Booleans – Pro Booleans is a new tool for modeling with Boolean operations allowing you to quickly and easily model inorganic shapes—useful for prototyping geometry, creating game level layout designs, and complex architectural elements. Merge, intersect, subtract, or add meshes to create rich and complex objects. Pro Booleans re-evaluates the topology to remove bad triangles, allowing you to create higher quality meshes with fewer small edges and skinny triangles.
* Hair and Cloth Improvements – Easily work with Cloth and Hair in 3ds Max 9. Create, manipulate, and style hair directly in the viewports using standard navigation and selection tools. As of 3ds Max 9, you can cinch waistlines, shorten hems, and tailor clothing in the stack without the need to edit the original pattern to make clothes fit.
* XRef Object Enhancements – Many enhancements have been made to XRefs in 3ds Max 9. You can now reference scene geometry, materials, and controllers and can maintain dependencies between XRefÂ’d items. The XRef systemÂ’s new dependency handling lets you preview object relationships in both merge and XRef operations, providing more control over how external objects are used.
* Enhanced FBX Support – The Autodesk® FBX® 3D authoring and interchange format allows you to exchange assets between 3D applications. Enhancements in FBX include improvements to mesh compatibility, pixel accuracy when transferring assets and data between 3ds Max and Maya® software.
* Display Support for DirectX and CG Shaders – Support for all DirectX® shaders and performance enhancements have been made for 3ds Max 9. You can now load cgfx files into the DX material and have them displayed in the viewport.
