Read this: http://www.tekgoblin.com/2010/06/10/adobe-flash-player-10-1-released-win-mac-and-linux/ I have been using Adobe Flash player since 10.1 beta3 and I have to agree it's amazing. I am using Nvidia 8500GT on Windows 7 and playing 1080p content using flash player is really great. Before getting this card which offers DXVA2 my system would cripple playing youtube 720p or in most cases 480p videos. From browser lock ups to various errors, I have seen it all. I highly recommend this update to anyone with a decent GPU [which is supported by adobe].

If you have a Graphic Card [Nvidia 8400+/ATI HD Series] which supports DXVA2[Directx Video Accleration] it will accelerate flash content using it (Less load on the CPU). If you have a low end system and playing youtube HD videos is nearly impossible this simple update will make your life easier. No need for Core2Duo processor to enjoy High Defination Content on the InternetInternetInternet. Btw it also accelerates flash games. In short, anything that uses Flash will offload all the processing to the GPU.

Well the guy is back now! He has posted PwnageTool bundles for iPhone 3GS, iOS 4 GM release which you can use to jailbreak your iPhone 3GS, while preserving your baseband so that you can unlock using ultrasn0w or blacksn0w.

Well, it's better than finding porn or child porn on your gadgets. [Not]. In Pakistan most of the cds sold in shops [pirated] are infected with viruses, this also holds true for any consumer product which is tested by the shop owner. Not many people are tech savvy here and they don't understands the risks involved when dealing with storage devices. It's a shame to see Olympus screw up in this case, but sooner or later it was bound to happen. I hope that in future they will keep an eye on things. inb4theusednortonsecuritysuite. Btw there are numerous free Antivirus software’s which can easily take of the problem. I recommend Avast.
