"Stranger In Moscow"
I was wandering in the rain
Mask of life, feelin’ insane
Swift and sudden fall from grace
Sunny days seem far away
Kremlin’s shadow belittlin’ me
Stalin’s tomb won’t let me be
On and on and on it came
Wish the rain would just let me
How does it feel (How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
Here abandoned in my fame
Armageddon of the brain
KGB was doggin’ me
Take my name and just let me be
Then a begger boy called my name
Happy days will drown the pain
On and on and on it came
And again, and again, and again…
Take my name and just let me be
How does it feel (How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel (How does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
How does it feel (How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel (How does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
Like stranger in Moscow
Like stranger in Moscow
We’re talkin’ danger
We’re talkin’ danger, baby
Like stranger in Moscow
We’re talkin’ danger
We’re talkin’ danger, baby
Like stranger in Moscow
I’m live in lonely
I’m live in lonely, baby
Stranger in Moscow
[KGB interrogator - Russian to English Translation]
"Why have you come from the West?
Confess! To steal the great achievments of
the people, the accomplishments of the workers…"

According to a supposed Microsoft Research employee’s LinkedIn profile, Microsoft is working on 128-bit architecture compatibility with the Windows 8 and Windows 9 kernels. Consequently, the company is also forming relationships with major partners, including Intel, AMD, HP, and IBM.
Believe it or not, Windows 7’s successor(s) have been in the planning and early development stages for a while now. We haven’t posted anything about any of them yet, but we’ve been watching closely to see if anything really interesting turned up. Exactly two weeks ago, it did. A LinkedIn profile, which has already been taken down, for a Robert Morgan, Senior Research & Development at Microsoft, has shone a sliver of light on the possibility of 128-bit support coming to Windows 8. According to the LinkedIn page, which has been removed since, Morgan has been with the software giant since January 2002, but we’re more intrigued with what his profile (first paragraph) and his status (second paragraph) before they disappeared:
Working in high security department for research and development involving strategic planning for medium and longterm projects. Research & Development projects including 128bit architecture compatibility with the Windows 8 kernel and Windows 9 project plan. Forming relationships with major partners: Intel, AMD, HP, and IBM.
Robert Morgan is working to get IA-128 working backwards with full binary compatibility on the existing IA-64 instructions in the hardware simulation to work for Windows 8 and definitely Windows 9.
Windows 8 News found Morgan’s profile first and immediately started trying to get in contact with him over LinkedIn. When we saw this, we leaned back and waited to see if they could get a response from him. They did. The site claims it has managed to get an exclusive interview with Morgan and is letting its readers to ask questions. The deadline is October 11, 2009 so head on over and post your queries.
This news is interesting because we always thought Windows 7 would be the last release that had 32-bit and 64-bit versions. This was brought on by the fact that Windows Server 2008 R2, the server version of Windows 7, was the first Windows Server release to be 64-bit only. The next client version of Windows should therefore follow suit, but apparently Microsoft is going to prepare it for 128-bit as well. We’re not saying Windows 8 will definitely come in 64-bit and 128-bit flavors, but Microsoft is moving down that path, and at the very least, Windows 9 just might.

Remember the rumors earlier this year that Microsoft was going to deliver Windows 7 on a thumb drive? Well, the rumors were correct — sort of…
On October 22, Microsoft announced it will enable netbook users who want to upgrade from XP (or Vista) to Windows 7 to use a special version of Windows 7 preloaded on a USB stick.
(I have no idea whether this has any connection to the rumored “StartKey” project I wrote about back in 2008. StartKey, the way it was originally portrayed to me, was more of an initiative to put Windows and Windows Live settings on a USB stick.)
Microsoft officials confirmed to News.com that it will make available an online tool, starting on October 22, “that will walk users through the process of moving a downloaded copy of Windows 7 onto a USB drive, be that a memory stick or portable hard drive.”
Microsoft officials sent me the following statement when I asked for more details on the new tool:
“A recurring question is whether we’re going to provide any special tools to help customers install Windows 7 on PC’s that lack a DVD drive, such a netbook PC. Today, Microsoft is announcing the upcoming availability of a free tool to help our netbook PC customers (without DVD drives) install Windows 7. Once a customer has purchased and downloaded their copy of Windows 7 from the Microsoft online store, they can use the tool to create either a bootable USB drive or a DVD using the download. This new resource, known as the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool (WUDT) will be freely downloadable from the Microsoft Store as well as the Microsoft Download Center beginning on October 22nd.
“This tool will be available to support localized versions of Windows 7 including Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese. Customers who want to learn more about the USB/DVD Download Tool can visit www.microsoftstore.com/win7usb.”

We are proud to announce the release of Network Administrator 3.0. Thanks for all of the suggestions, and bug reports. Every one of them helped us.
Give it a spin, and download it from here:
http://www.intelliadmin.com/NetworkAdministrator.exe
(If you purchased a pre-order serial number – use this download and activate it with the serial number you received)
If your plugin has not been implemented, not to worry, we are going to keep pushing them out over the coming months and weeks.
Before that, our next step will be to finish the plugin builder. This will be a web based system that will be free for anyone to use. You will be able to build your own plugins using VBScript, or Batch files. Later, once we get that all smoothed out, we will consider adding other scripting platforms like Kix Script, and Powershell.
So far, we have a settings panel designer almost finished. It still needs the graphics for the different component types, but we will get that done. After that we will implement the logon system and plugin generator. Once that is complete we will start allowing people to beta test the service.
What can you do with Network Administrator? Well, you can pick a list of machines, and apply an action against them. Here are all of the current actions available:
Change network configuration
![]()
Want to switch 1000 hosts to DHCP? Have new DNS servers? No problem, with this plugin you can change them in a few clicks
Daylight Saving Time Update
Easily update those older NT 4.1, Windows 2000, and XP machines to the latest DST settings without being forced to purchase a $5000 patch from microsoft.
Disable CDROM Drives
Keep users from installing unwanted software. Disable and enable their CDROM / DVD drives with ease.
Set Excel 2007 to save in the older format
Having a problem with users sending Excel 2007 documents to people outside your network? Reduce those help desk calls by forcing all of your Excel 2007 users to automatically save in the 2003/XP format.
Disable Floppy Drives
Prevent users from accessing their floppy drives and installing unwanted software.
Folder copy
Have a set of shortcuts you want to copy to everyone’s desktop? Or a configuration file you need to place on their C Drive? Use the folder copy plugin to copy files and folders to many machines in just a few clicks.
Block IE 7 Automatic Install
Need to keep IE 6 on your network, and want to prevent those dreaded calls after users install IE 7? Use the IE 7 blocker to prevent the automatic install of IE 7.
Block IE 8 Automatic Install
Keep IE 7 standard on your network by blocking the automatic install of IE 8
Kill Processes
This plugin can kill a process by name across your network. Got a piece of spyware that uses a common filename, but keeps randomizing a prefex? Use the wildcard feature to zap them all
Logon Disclaimer
Have legal statements that need to be declared to users before they logon? Use the logon disclaimer to notify them
Manage Services
Stop, Start, and modify services using the manage services plugin
Disable Offile FIles
Every fresh install of Windows XP has the ‘Offline Files’ feature enabled. This annoying functionality can be disabled with this plugin
Change Power Management Settings
Save energy by making changes to the power management settings on computers across your network
Remote Desktop Enabler
Have remote registry access to a remote machine, but remote desktop is disabled? Remote desktop enabler can turn on remote desktop so you can get into that machine asap.
Remote Desktop Port Set
Want to change the port Remote Desktop uses to listen for connections? Use this plugin to change the port that Remote Desktop listens on.
Remote Execute
Got an MSI file you want to install silently on 100 machines? Network Administrator can do it in a few clicks. Build batch files, or VBS files and easily execute them remotely.
Set Background Wallpaper
Have a corporate logo you want to have on everyone’s background? Use the wallpaper plugin to set it across your network. It will even take care of copying it to the remote host for you.
Set Local Administrator Password
Resetting the domain administrator password is easy, but what happens when an employee leaves the company and you have 50 machines with the same local administrator password? Normally, you would walk around to each one and change it. With the ‘Set Local Administrator Password’ feature you can change it across your network without even getting out of your chair.
Set VNC Password
Use Tight VNC, or Real VNC on your network? Need to change the password on a 100 or 1000 machines? Network Administrator can change them all in one sweep of your network.
Reboot or Shutdown Computers
Quickly shutdown, or reboot computers. You can even set a time limit before your action takes place, and tell users why they need a reboot or shutdown.
Disable USB Flash Drives
Prevent access to USB flash drives, while allowing USB based keyboards, mice, and scanners.
Windows Autologon
Set windows to automatically logon as a specific username and password.
Word Default Document Set
Upgrade to Office 2007, but want users to save in 2003/XP format by default? Use the default document set feature to make this change in a flash.
That is the complete list. The list will keep growing as we continue to improve and add them in.
If you have an idea of one you want added, or have an improvement you want made to a current one, then send us an email to plugins@intelliadmin.com
It won’t be too long, and you will be able to build your own!

Windows 7 has been officially launched, but Microsoft never makes available official download links that allow retail customers to download setup installer or ISO image of Windows 7, despite digital downloads have been the sole distribution channel for many that purchases from online store or on MSDN or TechNet subscriptions.
Many mass general public who requires a Windows 7 installation DVD or ISO image has to rely on BT torrent to download Windows 7 ISO from MSDN or TechNet Subscriber Downloads, and it carries the risk of getting fake, incorrect, malicious or infected images instead.
Now the direct download links to the Windows 7 operating system purchased online have been leaked. The installation files of Windows 7 is hosted on the server on domain msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net owned by Digital River, one of the delivery partners for Vista and also the brain behind Windows Marketplace e-commerce store. The Windows 7 installation files are meant as a way of ESD (Electronic Software Distribution).
Unlike Windows Vista, each editions of Windows 7 has its own different and separate download links. The Windows 7 setup installer package comes in 3 parts, which is an executable that starts the extraction or unpacking and installation process, plus setup1.box and setup2.box. After extracting all content to a folder named ExpandedSetup, the installation files should be the same with what contains on a DVD.
Windows 7 Direct Download Links
32-bit Windows 7 Professional x86 http://msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net/msvista/pub/X15-79643/Win7-P-Retail-en-us-x86.exe
File Size: 69.78 MB
MD5: 204D02EA3AB587B70621A7EC99B3F1B8
SHA-1: 60BA243A05261AA7A3AF9A3ADF509E8069B6E891
http://msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net/msvista/pub/X15-79643/setup1.box
File Size: 2.04 GB
MD5: D5CC1E45D6EB57B8500DBCF622F39637
SHA-1: EDAA9BA294EA7E49D4FE731E81CDD1E3C6168F51

File Size: 137.59 MB

SHA-1: 78D8ED22DF4FCDA102B72D41420D9854DC0DF7B4
Note: If you have corrupted files or incomplete files, try to use a download manager to download manager, as the server seems to close connection once the size reaches 2 GB.
Also available is 64-bit (x64) Windows 7 ESD setup installer downloads.
After downloading the files, simply double click on the executable, e.g. Win7-P-Retail-en-us-x86.exe to start unloading the box and to install Windows 7. Note that 3 files must be put together in the same directory. You still need a product key to activate installed Windows 7.
And there is hack to create or make bootable Windows 7 DVD ISO images out of downloaded files.
And hack to change the edition of the Windows 7 installation files in order to use it to install other editions that the one downloaded, such as Windows 7 Ultimate and Home Premium.

Users that upgrade Windows Vista OEM computers to Windows 7 might find that the recovery applications set in place by the original equipment manufacturer are no longer accessible.
This scenario is valid for some OEM machines that were acquired with Windows Vista pre-installed, the Redmond company explained. OEMs, in certain cases, will preload the Windows Recovery Environment inside the operating system. In this regard, users would be able to benefit from the System Recovery Options right in the graphical user interface (UI) and help topics.
“You have a computer that is preinstalled with Windows Vista by the computer manufacturer. After you upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7 on this computer, you notice that manufacturer-specific recovery applications are no longer available on the System Recovery Options menu,” Microsoft explained.
It is not uncommon for OEMs to customize the System Recovery Options. Original Equipment Manufacturers will in fact tailor Windows platforms to their specific needs, and always present custom build copies of the operating system along with their new computers. In this context, the Windows RE tools are customized in accordance with different OEMs. Customers will only be aware of the fact that Windows will come with manufacturer-specific recovery applications included by default. The general rule is that the apps will be offered through the Windows RE tools menu.
Upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7 is an action capable of cutting off access to OEM recovery apps. “When these systems are upgraded to Windows 7, the manufacturer-preloaded Windows RE option will be replaced with a Windows 7-compatible Windows RE,” the software giant added.
There is no hot fix or update from Microsoft to resolve this issue. The Redmond company only recommends that in order “to obtain the manufacturer-specific recovery applications for Windows 7, contact your computer manufacturer.”

Amazon announced “Kindle for PC” – a free application that let’s readers enjoy reading books purchased from the Kindle Store right on their Windows PC. Today the Kindle Store has over 360,000 books to purchase, download and read. That’s a lot of books. We showed off Kindle for PC for the first time at our New York City Launch Party for Windows 7.
The beta for Kindle for PC will be available as a free download in November. You can sign-up here to receive an email when Kindle for PC Beta is available.
Kindle for PC takes advantage of key Windows 7 features such as Windows Touch for zooming in and out with a pinch of the fingers and turning pages with the swipe of a finger. It also includes integration with the Windows Taskbar through a Jump List. I’ve been playing with it for the last few days on my HP TouchSmart tx2 and it’s wonderful.
Kindle for PC will also run on PCs running Windows XP and Windows Vista as well.
The Kindle for PC application also uses Amazon’s Whispersync technology. This allows the application to sync bookmarks and the last read page across PCs (and other devices such as the Kindle and Kindle DX).
Here is a demo of Kindle for PC in action!

Following the public release of Microsoft Security Essentials a few weeks ago, Microsoft has combed its data and released an interesting set of results showing how different infections apply across the 19 countries in which the software is available. This is how the breakdown of threats fell across those countries:-
According to the data, trojans come up as the number one detection in the USA, worms affect Brazilians the most, and China is mainly affected by potentially unwanted software threats.
Breaking the results down into particular threat families, the Wimad trojans and FakeXPA trojan are the top culprits when it comes to infection in the USA. Brazil is mainly infected by the Conficker worm and the Taterf worm, and China’s software exploits include Shellcode and IFrameRef.
In total, around 4 million threats were detected on the 500,000 machines the survey included. This equates to around 8 detections per machine, suggesting that most machines had multiple threats.
Interestingly, 44% of machines that use Microsoft Security Essentials are running Windows 7, which isn’t due for release until October 22. Of those, about one-third are running in 64-bit mode.
The most detections were found on machines running the ageing Windows XP, and the least on Windows 7, which Microsoft suggest follows the typical trend of seeing fewer threats on newer operating systems.
Microsoft Security Essentials is currently available for download for Windows users at http://www.microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/
