Using Adobe Reader has been the traditional method of viewing PDFs, can’t blame them since they are after all the main folks behind the PDF revolution. However, one complain that everyone has had wrt Adobe Reader has been its massive load time. I will admit that the latest version, 8, does load extremely quickly. But the download is well more than 20MB. Hence, it has been time to look for a lighter alternative. And in walks Foxit Reader 2.0. Foxit Reader 2.0 is a free PDF document viewer and printer.

I decided to take the plunge today and upgrade to WordPress 2.1 codenamed Ella. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the easy going upgrade that Mark had. I followed the upgrade instructions and ran /wp-admin/upgrade.php and decided to check the site. Found out that the pages were throwing up 404 errors. Thought it to be a normal problem with the Permalinks, but regenerating them didn’t solve any issue. So I next decided to edit and resave all the pages, only to discover that the upgrade had “eaten up” all the pages. It was kinda shocking. The user in me started panicing, while […]

WordPress 2.1 has just been released by the WordPress development team. I personally and I’m sure many others two were not very happy with WordPress 2.0 and several of the features it added.

This is also the procedure being followed for the upcoming 2.2 version due out on April 23. 2.1 has several additions both on a user point of view as […]
The WordPress team has just released WordPress 2.0.7. It fixes a PHP security problem. This problem effects only certain versions of PHP. It also fixes the Feedburner issue I reported earlier. If you haven’t upgraded to even 2.0.6, I recommend that you upgrade your blog ASAP, because all versions prior to 2.0.6 have a big security bug. If you are already running 2.0.6, then you only need to upload these files: wp-admin/inline-uploading.php wp-admin/post.php wp-includes/classes.php wp-includes/functions.php wp-settings.php wp-includes/version.php Changes since 2.0.6 from the dev-blog: Security fix for wp_unregister_GLOBALS() to work around the zend_hash_del_key_or_index bug in PHP 4 versions less than 4.4.3 […]
Less than a month after Trend Micro discovered Vista flaws being sold off for $50,000 in the underground market by hackers, VeriSign’s iDefense Labs has placed an $8,000 bounty on remote code execution holes in Windows Vista and Internet Explorer 7.
