<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Have you ever felt, while installing software, that the
installer tries to push additional unwanted programs at all cost? Ever missed a
checkbox, and spent hours afterwards removing adware? Ever opened your browser
after an installation, only to find out that you have a new homepage, a new
search engine, or even a new browser?<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Ransomware </b>is one of the most pervasive and
costly forms of malware afflicting businesses and consumers today. The term
describes a broad family of hostile computer viruses that infiltrate computer
servers, PCs, laptops, tablets, smartphones, and other computerized devices
like ATMs and airline check-in kiosks. Rather than stealing valuable
information from the device, ransomware aims to deny users access to the files
and data stored on it. The simpler “blocker” form presents a screen that
prevents users from accessing the computer’s desktop. The more sophisticated
and destructive “encryption” form of ransomware goes much further: it encrypts
(mathematically scrambles) the user’s files. Both types present a screen
instructing the user to pay an online ransom to an untraceable recipient, for
which the attacker promises to unlock the system.<br />
<br />
Ransomware-wielding criminals rely on user fear and ignorance to extort
payment, increasing the pressure on victims to pay quickly with tactics like a
running countdown timer that specifies an approaching payment deadline of days
or hours. If the user pays up, the attacker will provide the mathematical key
that can be used to unscramble the files, or instructions on how to remove the
blocker.<br /></div>

Got inquiry from one of the blog readers on what is the
best free DJ Software for mixing and mastering. As it is not area of my
personal expertise, had to consult with one of my friends.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
His ultimate verdict was - DJ Prodecks – especially for
beginners.<o:p></o:p></div>

Assuming that most beginners have just their computers
and keyboards to work with, this free software will be the one and the only

It can even allow you to set up an advance track list so you can keep the party
going even if you need to grab a drink mid-session. <o:p></o:p></div>

<i>When I see that somebody
is claiming that there is something the best, I usually “flip” the page over.
No desire to fall into trap of the modern advertising. <o:p></o:p></i></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<i>However, MusicBee
is listed on top of the free players’ ratings by several well-respected web

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
MusicBee is a free music player created for serious
music lovers and includes everything you need to manage and enjoy your

Switching to MusicBee is easy. The first time it runs,
the app scans your PC for music and lets you import your files from Windows
Media Player or iTunes. Tracks are catalogued, but aren't moved unless you've
checked that option under Library Preferences so there'll be no surprises.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Once your songs are imported, tagging them is a piece of
cake; hit Shift+Enter to open the tag editor and go to work. MusicBee's
automatic tagging is superb, or you can update metadata yourself using
industry-standard tags for each file format.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
As in Windows Media Player, adding artwork is as simple
as copying and pasting, and it isn't limited to the album cover – you can also
add pictures of the artist, lead singer, band logo, and photos from live
performances. These additional pictures are used throughout the player as
navigation aids, and as visualizations while tracks are playing. MusicBee also
searches for song lyrics to display as each track plays.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This free music player is designed to make the most of
your PC's hardware, including top-end soundcards and surround-sound setups,
with upmixing for stereo sound. Continuous playback eliminates silences between
tracks (ideal for Pink Floyd fans), and you can choose to add silences or
fades, normalize volume, and experiment with the equalizer.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
MusicBee is also great for streaming from internet radio
stations and listening to podcasts, and supports both SoundCloud and Last.fm.
You can even <span class="msoIns"><ins>link it to VLC Media Player</ins></span> to
stream video podcasts.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The free music player supports almost every audio format
around and converting files is simplicity itself, with presets for different
playback devices (though for MP3 encoding you'll need to download the <span class="msoIns"><ins>LAME codec</ins></span>).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If all of that isn't enough, there's even <span class="msoIns"><ins>an Android app</ins></span> for controlling MusicBee
remotely, and support for WinAmp plugins. You won't find a more comprehensive
free music player, and although it's not open source, it's completely free to
use and tinker with for personal use.<o:p></o:p></div>

First time, I posted the note on Avidemux almost 10 years
ago. Many software titles become non-existing, and even more non-supported
anymore. Avidemux is however, is up, and still supported by active development.

Office Image Extraction Wizard is an app that allows you
to easily extract images from many "office type" documents and ebook
formats, and save these as normal picture files on your hard drive. More than
45 common file formats are supported!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Images are extracted in their original format, with no
image processing or re-compression being performed, so no quality is lost
during the extraction. It does not require MS Office to work. <o:p></o:p></div>

Microsoft
Access is a versatile tool for creating database-driven applications and to
maintain office or personal data. Access contains an embedded database engine,
but it also connects to other databases through ODBC. <o:p></o:p></div>

Microsoft
Access free competitor, Kexi, allows users to design forms to gain access to
and to create data, just like Access. Kexi also contains an embedded database
engine and it can import data to Microsoft Access databases. And, yes, Kexi is
open source, free utility.<o:p></o:p></div>
