Download Ultimate Windows tweaker v1.2 Posted: 14 May 2009 03:43 AM PDT After the previous release of Ultimate Windows tweaker by Ramesh Kumar,Ultimate Windows Tweaker is moved to Version 1.2.Its a simple but very powerful tweak UI for Windows 7 and Windows Vista users.It doesn't require you to install the software as it portable. It can transform your system to be faster, more stable, and secure with just a few mouse clicks.This tweaker detects which version of IE is installed  and accordingly offers you the relevant tweaks only. It has over 130 tweaks in a small 450 kb file.Do create system restore before applying tweaks.All tweaks are working fine for me.If in case you want to go back to defaults go back to Restore defaults. Changes: UI has been revamped and now you'll get more Windows Vista style dialogs. Recoded internal methods for Service Optimization, that enable it to start and stop Windows Services instantly. Empty Icon detached to make the it 100% portable. In last release "Remove arrow from shortcut icons" refers a blank icon from executable. Track bars in system performance show the real values in info tip. That make possible to know the exact current value. Currently known Issue: Please don't detach Empty Icon from executable's root, the Empty Icon is copied to system directory and referred in runtime. You can download Ultimate Windows Tweaker here.You can check out the home page here.Thanks Ramesh Kumar for the utility.

Windows 7 Box Designs - Fake or Real ? Posted: 13 May 2009 08:43 AM PDT CentrumXP.pl a Polish website have published some Windows 7 Box shots of how each of the Windows 7 versions would be released.The authencity is not clear as of now,but let me tell you the various versions and boxing packaging how its done. Windows 7 appears in six editions: Basic: Home premium — Normal consumer version. Professional  — for small and medium-sized businesses. Specialized: Starter — The basic version only good on netbooks. Home Basic — Home Premium truncated version. Enterprise –For large corporations which have signed agreements with Microsoft. Ultimate  — for the most demanding users with all functions. Windows 7 Home Premium Windows 7 Professional Windows 7 Ultimate Windows 7 Home Premium (upgrade from Home Basic) Windows 7 Professional (upgrade from Home Premium) Windows 7 Ultimate (upgrade from Home Premium) Windows 7 Home Premium (upgrade from Starter) Adam Stepien, editor-in-chief of CentrumXP.pl, wrote to WindowsClub and mentioned that they have received it from Microsoft.But istartedsomething site found these to be fake and some info on why it is considered to be fake.The  most conclusive evidence that this is a fake lies in the "Windows 7? logo. The official logo uses the fonts Segoe Light for the letter "7? which is not the case here. In reply to the fake controversy Adam Stepien, editor-in-chief of CentrumXP.pl has replied back to windowsClub sayin These shots are not fakes. Microsoft has released other stuff like presentations, advertising (not leaked yet) where you can find these images, so it won't change. Later on istartedsomething took back its words and said that the screen shots are not fake and are real.The undeniable evidence ironically comes from none other than Microsoft employees, on a Facebook group they've set up.I am talking about the ‘Windows Lounge‘ a group on Facebook only for the ones with Microsoft email id.Not even the MVP’s are allowed to join and it mainly deals with the lighter version of Windows 7. The group admins have uploaded a banner to formalize the group but probably did not realize that even non-group-members can too see the image.Now even the public has come to about the new Windows logo and the box designs. The new logo looks like the Seven number in Eastern Arabic Numerals. So the final verdict is the logo box designs are real and aren’t fake.
