Download Free 140 Page Windows 7 Product Guide from Microsoft

Microsoft Windows 7 has not only enhanced its software application but also marketing and customer services. Though resting having established its dominance in computer operating systems, Microsoft shows that it is not on its laurels or planning to relax its grip on the market. Apart from Microsoft Answers, the Q&A technical support launched in December 2008, and Windows 7 Solution Center, Microsoft is offering the new Windows 7 Product Guide which can be downloaded for free.

The 140-page overview provides a detailed and comprehensive guide to users on how to make full use of Windows 7. The product guide is organized into three sections – Introduction , Windows 7 for You, and Windows 7 for IT Professionals. It also has an overview of the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack which explains how companies can use the applications to manage and optimize their desktop functions.

While the Product Guide serves as a manual, the Windows 7 Solution Center offers troubleshooting tips to fix problems. The tech support website is divided into several categories including installation, upgrading, activation, performance, safety, Internet Explorer, entertainment, etc. Although the features and functions of the latest operating systems get increasingly more sophisticated and advanced, users have no excuse to reject Windows 7 due to ignorance or the lack of familiarity and support.

A Beginner’s Guide to Deep Neural Networks

Posted by Natalie Hammel and Lorraine Yurshansky, creators of Nat & Lo’s 20% Project

Last year, we (a couple of people who knew nothing about how voice search works) set out to make a video about the research that’s gone into teaching computers to recognize speech and understand language.

Making the video was eye-opening and brain-opening. It introduced us to concepts we’d never heard of – like machine learning and artificial neural networks – and ever since, we’ve been kind of fascinated by them. Machine learning, in particular, is a very active area of Computer Science research, with far-ranging applications beyond voice search – like machine translation, image recognition and description, and Google Voice transcription.

So... still curious to know more (and having just started this project) we found Google researchers Greg Corrado and Christopher Olah and ambushed them with our machine learning questions.

This video is our attempt to distill what we learned from talking with them, but if anything in it piques your curiosity, or you have other questions, you’re in luck! On Friday, September 25, at 1 PM PDT / 4 PM EST Greg and Chris will be doing an Ask Me Anything on Reddit (see the calendar here) to answer your deep learning questions.

Everyone who’s curious is welcome to join, ask questions, and hopefully gain a better understanding of the world of machine learning and deep neural networks. (And we’ll be hanging out with them, too...in case you have any questions about video making or dogs.) We hope to see you this Friday!

Remove Update your browser Fake Warning Uninstall Guide

A new scareware campaign is circulating that appears to be a Mozilla Firefox (could be any other web browser) update warning. It seems that cyber crooks continue to make improvements to their social engineering lures. Fake online virus scanners when users get standard "My Computer" dialog may not work anymore because they become very well documented recently. Heres a screenshot of what the fake browser update notification looks like:

Update your browser
This page does not support your version of browser
Please update your software
Browser update

Unfortunately, it could be a successful social engineering attack against Internet users who are still using old and out-of-date web browsers. Besides, there are safe websites that use JavaScript to inform users about out-of-date web browser and in some cases, MSN forum for example, you can leave a reply with Internet Explorer only. If you visit their forum with Firefox or Chrome, youll get a notification that your web browser is not supported. So, it could be rather difficult for some Internet users to distinguish between "Update your browser" scareware attack and legit update notifications. If you have you received this fake "Update your browser" warnings, chances that your computer is infected with a rootkit. Do not click "Browser update" button, otherwise youll download more malware onto your computer. Also, if you want to check for updates, use web browsers options, ignore notifications from websites even if they appear to be from well know and popular sites. To remove the fake Update your browser warning and associated malware, please follow the removal instructions below. If you have any questions, please leave a comment below or email us. Good luck and be safe online!
