Scroll down and look for the following entries and set the value like this:<br /><br />network.http.pipelining --> true<br />network.http.proxy.pipelining --> true<br />network.http.pipelining.maxrequests --> 30 (This means it will make 30 requests at once)<br /><br />Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time.

Currently 40 Channels available.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.zattoo.com/">Zattoo</a> was founded in US in 2005 by Sugih Jamin, professor for computer science at the University of Michigan, and Beat Knecht, a swiss software product marketing professional and former McKinsey consultant in Silicon Valley.<br /><br />Zattoo is a Peer-to-Peer IPTV-Service. The main goal is a fast loading, long running Live-Internet-TV for broadband users, broadcaster, content owners and advertisers.<br /><br />"Advances in broadband, video compression, and multicast streaming technology are rapidly lowering the technical hurdles for Internet and television to merge on a PC. However, there is still the matter of cost. Our streaming network solves that problem by reducing broadcasters' costs by a factor of ten, making it compelling for them to switch to our technology and broaden their service offering," said Sugih Jamin, CTO and co-founder of Zattoo. "Also, Zattoo's proprietary P2P streaming technology ensures a video delivery and smoothness that has until now been impossible to achieve."<br /><br />Personally, I was impressed by the quality.

Every participant - including Microsoft chairman Bill Gates - has been asked to post at least once, according to this <a href="http://www.itpro.co.uk/networking/news/103013/world-economic-forum-leaders-get-a-taste-of-web-20.html">article</a>.<br /><br />This afternoon, I followed the discussion about Web 2.0 with Leaders from Microsoft, Flickr, Nike, Fortune and more. The topic aimed less about technique and more about participation, community, sharing, individualization of content and services.... order your individual, unique styled Nike-Shoes... Customize your desktop and web... just be a part of it.<br /><br />Web 2.0 is everywhere. And Web 3.0 is already on its way....<br /><br /><em>Update 2007 (WEF): Beyond Web 2.0 -- From Content to Collective Knowledge?<br /><br />While social networks and community-oriented interactive sites, known as Web 2.0, continue to gain pace, the advent of Web 3.0 is already taking shape. In this Update, panellists (WEF) will discuss how a fundamental, technology-enabled "semantic Web" could develop over the coming four to five years, driven by hyper personalization coupled with advances in meta tagging and search, revolutionizing the way the knowledge is shared.</em><br /><a href="http://wef.typepad.com/blog/"></a><br />Hope, I will find the according WEF potcast.<br /><br />WEF - Please don't mix it with <a href="http://www.searchforvideo.com/sports/wrestling/undertaker/"><strong>W</strong>resting <strong>E</strong>ntertainement <strong>F</strong>ederation</a> :-)Patrick Spielerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08303898963209111044noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26507333.post-58979886084669007502007-01-25T23:28:00.000+01:002007-09-14T15:58:04.557+02:00List of Microsoft software codenamesProject 42, Rosetta, Starfighter, Thunder, Daytona, Metro, Omega, Istanbul, Kahona, Darwin, Monad, Aurora, Lone Start.... <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Microsoft_software_codenames">Guess the Products behind Microsoft codenames...</a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Microsoft_software_codenames"></a>Patrick Spielerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08303898963209111044noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26507333.post-31539872040264361272007-01-23T14:05:00.000+01:002007-09-14T15:54:23.510+02:00Anti-Cross Site Scripting LibraryCross-site scripting (XSS) attacks exploit vulnerabilities in Web-based applications that fail to properly validate and/or encode input that is embedded in response data. Malicious users can then inject client-side script into response data causing the unsuspecting user's browser to execute the script code. The script code will appear to have originated from a trusted-site and may be able to bypass browser protection mechanisms such as security zones.<br /><br />ASP.NET developers may wish to use the Microsoft Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library to encode output. This library differs from other encoding libraries in that it uses the principle of inclusions and provides a high degree of protection against XSS attacks.<br /><br /><a href="http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/security/aa973814.aspx">Learn more about the Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library</a><br /><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=EFB9C819-53FF-4F82-BFAF-E11625130C25&displaylang=en">Download the Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library</a><br /><a href="http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa973813.aspx">Follow the tutorials</a>Patrick Spielerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08303898963209111044noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26507333.post-27044731206376960772007-01-22T07:49:00.000+01:002007-09-14T15:54:57.790+02:00WPF/E Future - Textbox and other ControlsThere are a lot of <a href="http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=77794&clcid=0x409">gadget-examples with WPF/E!</a> Nice - but not more. Flash V. 1.0 :-)<br /><br />WPF/E does not even contain a Textbox control at the moment. It is in a really early stage. So don't be disappointed. According to this <a href="http://blogs.infragistics.com/blogs/tony_lombardo/archive/2006/12/14/629.aspx">thread</a>, Microsoft is working on adding basic control (TextBox, Checkbox, ...) in the next CTP. Then we're getting closer to business needs.<br /><br />"<a href="http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2006/12/04/announcing-the-release-of-the-first-wpf-e-ctp.aspx">We'll also be providing "WPF/E" integration with .NET managed code next year</a>" announced Scott Guthrie, which will bring WPF/E even one level higher (more c#, less javascript).<br /><br />In the meantime, Tony Lombardo from Infragistics did realize a cool combo (WPF/E and MS AJAX) - a <a href="http://blogs.infragistics.com/blogs/tony_lombardo/archive/2006/12/14/629.aspx">"WPF/E Textbox"</a>. Take a look.
