Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant Now Blocked By Mozzila

Posted by roger andre

A plug in for firefox that Microsoft released some months ago, has been blocked by Mozzila. I was issued a warning that stated the plugin caused security and stability issues. I remember thinking how great it was that MS had done 'something' for firefox users, but now I'm not so sure.

I went the whole hog and uninstalled the add on. I expect this to be news on monday. It can't just be me again, can it?

Is This A Windows 7 Show Stopper Or Just A Minor Bug?

Posted by roger andre

After receiving a zipped file containing a .avi file, I thought I'd give media player classic a go at unpacking and opening the file all on it's own. Now, every single zip file has an association with media player classic with no option to re-associate file unzipping with windows explorer. It's right there in XP as an option. Can anybody replicate this or point out what I'm missing?
