Getting rid of PGP WDE for Mac
Posted on 25.09.2009 12:25 in Buzz670 views, 6 comment(s) , add a commentA couple of months ago I installed PGP Whole Disk Encryption (WDE) for Mac OS X. This software encrypts the entire hard disk and requires pre–boot authentication before allowing Mac OS X to boot. It worked well on Leopard: no slow downs, no faults, simple and effective. I like it.

YouTube drops Internet Explorer 6 support
Posted on 14.07.2009 22:51 in Buzz811 views, 4 comment(s) , add a commentTechCrunch reports that YouTube may drop Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 support soon. In my opinion this is excellent news. Just a couple of days ago I spent almost the whole day trying to make the site with complex CSS layout work correctly in the Internet Explorer 6. FireFox, Opera, Safari and newer versions of Internet Explorer were all fine. Internet Explorer 6 required its own CSS. It is plain stupid to support such an old browser that does not behave according to standards in any mode.
I do welcome MSIE6 support drop from major market...
