Last night I took the time to go see the Transformers II movie, my expectations was “so so” as a friend of mine had claimed it to be poor, but as I liked the first movie why would I not like the second one.. megan-fox Conclusion, well true the story line is a bit odd (as some guy wrote “they keep making poor choices” in this movie) and the plot might have been better for a movie with a budget like this..  but that said, rarely have I experienced such a marvel of CGI effects – it was one long show off with excellent action sequences and cool effects. Don’t bring your girlfriend to watch this one, but for a guy’s night out this is definitely worth a look (if for nothing else then for the HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT Megan Fox).       .

vlcp1You likely already know about VLC player from VideoLan.org?  It is a nifty little player that has several cool features, like; it is free, it has build in codex’es and oh yeah it is free 😉

The really cool thing about VLC is that it come with build in codex’es, this is clever because it is often here mediaplaying go wrong, a user simply does not have the right codex and can not display a mediaclip, many PC users have downloaded a codex pack – however your old aunt Oda have not and cant watch the videoclips you put on your website..  Well VLC deal with this by integrating the codexes, this way you wont have to think about it.

In the past the VLC player had one drawback, it was ugly and un userfriendly, however in the first final (it has been in beta for many years now) version this seem to be fixed..  the player looks nice and is easy to navigate..

Just before I was about to post this I was informed about another player very similar;kmplayer
http://kmplayer.en.softonic.com/ KMPlayer
looks very nice (possibly even a bit better than VLC, so give it a spin also)..

If you are using Forefronturing  Client Security you know that it is not big in the corporate configuration department, much can however be done using GPO’s and general AD management..  Yes I also prefer having these options in a management console, but atlas it is still possible..

Read this article to get the low down.
Every Anti-Virus has a mechanism called tamper protection that helps administrator keep users from mishandling there antivirus settings and services. Forefront Client Security only offers basic control over what the user can or cannot do with the FCS Client Console on his client machine. What the FCS System doesn’t provide is a built-in mechanism to protect FCS services from being stopped or prevent FCS from being removed by the user.

It’s true that some of these are possible to prevent by not giving administrative privileges on the client workstation, but some of us don’t have that luxury.

Windows Group Policy has built-in settings that allow you both protect your services and disable removal by unauthorized users. This is how it’s done.
