The Microsoft Internet Server will host Windows XP or after April 8, 2014 product activation?
Original title: for Windows XP product activation
I understand that support and security updates for Windows XP is scheduled to be completed April 8, 2014.
Now, here's the scenario.
Suppose I have the installation CD of Windows XP. I installed it on my desktop PC. I need to have activated the or after April 8, 2014.
The Microsoft Internet Server will host for Windows XP product activation?
Hello
This FAQ http://www.microsoft.com/norge/piracy/activation_faq.mspx says:
Microsoft use activation to force me to upgrade? In other words, Microsoft will never stop giving activation codes for all products that require activation?
No, Microsoft use activation as a tool to force people to upgrade. Activation is simply a tool in the fight against piracy, nothing else.
Microsoft will also support Windows XP activation throughout his life and will probably make the point that turns off activation at the end of the life cycle of the product so that users would be more needed to activate the product.

Microsoft Exchange Server configured in Windows Mail or Windows Live Mail
Hello.
We just got a new laptop and I am trying to set up my e-mail account, as it was on my old. For work purposes, I use the Microsoft Exchange Server because my work has us using OWA. This way I can sync with my home outlook client and then synchronize with my portable devices.The new has Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail. As regular mail doesn't seem to have all the updated proxy in place, I tried on Live Mail.
I can't get set up on one or the other.Am I missing something?
So, I buy a laptop for $800, which includes the $150 for microsoft office home for students and teachers only to have to go and buy an Outlook for an additional amount of $100.
At least I'm taking a class 3 credit Post-grad at the present time through University and I have a .edu email address there.
The Ultimate Steal - Office Ultimate for students-$60 if you take at least one class of credit.5 and have a .edu email address.Windows needs to stop trying to improve things for people. Things have been good before!

I can't understand what the Microsoft Works versions will work on Win 7!
Hi, I have a laptop running Windows 7 (I like it better than winning 8, sorry, Microsoft!). I can't understand what the Microsoft Works versions will work on Win 7! I have 2 different versions: Works Suite 2001 and Works Suite 2003, but I can't get one of them to install. Someone please help - NON-techie language, if possible. I'm an old lady, not a tech person! Thank you very much.

Is it safe run of ATMs with Windows XP after April 8, 2014?
Microsoft will end support for Windows XP in April 8,2014. They are encouraging to switch to the latest operating systems of Microsoft, for security and the other reason. Now, in this condition, I found that almost all ATMS (ATM) using Windows XP or earlier operating system as their operating system. My question is that is - this safe to use Windows XP after April 8, 2014?
Thank you all.
Probably not. After April 8, 2014, Microsoft will no longer be security patches, so any vulnerability discovered after that date will remain available to be exploited. Of course, the ability to attack a computer usually depends on it to be accessible on the Internet. If the ATMs are connected via a secure private network, the Bank may believe that they are "pretty sure". I wouldn't trust to such a bank.

The outgoing mail server - unregistered Host field settings
Hello.I just installed a fresh copy of vCloud UM 3.2 and by setting the outgoing mail server field setting is not retained.
I enter the host name of Server mail in the host field, none for the authentication and the inlet and to e-mail addresses.
I click on save, tried clicking on save 2 - 3 times but if disconnect me and back again the host field is empty.
If anyone has experienced this problem or is it possible to fill in the field when editing a file maybe?
Thank you
Damian
Hi dbricceti,
My VMware is down now so I hope this e-mail you will get instead,
There are two save buttons, I never noticed that directly under the host server field, port information and credentials.
I kept clicking on one at the bottom of the page.
I completely missed the middle of the page, could not see the wood through the trees.
Hope this resolves for you.
Kind regards

I just got an email from saying Office Samsungs seller:
1. in the presentation of the new app in the seller's Office, you will need to submit the application which was developed using Samsung SDK.
Samsung SDK are tools that help sellers to make applications using the features of Samsung device specialized such as S Pen, fingerprint digital, gesture, movement and more. Visit the DEVELOPERS of SAMSUNG (http://developer.samsung.com/) to download Samsung SDK and get additional information.
In the case of existing applications, registered at the office of the Publisher, applications can be updated without using Samsung SDK.
2. Samsung seller membership ends for those registered before February 20, 2014 (+ 09:00 GMT), but have not submitted all the apps on the Samsung Apps seller office. (Date of accession: 30 June 201)
Is it mean that we can present is more AIR based apps?
HillTree I sent the support team Samsung and they told me that AIR based apps will be is more accepted after July 1. And it will be impossible to present all the apps without using the samsung SDK.

CLM-NSWG4,
It seems to me that you can have to deal with a virus\malware infection. You can watch these threads discuss virus problems and see if you are able to detect problems, that I suggest you use an online scanner (if you are able to) and scan your system.Windows Live OneCare Safety Scanner Windows 7\Vista
