Redmond releases security update for all Windows versions |

One of the updates that Microsoft rolled out as part of this month’s Patch Tuesday cycle comes to address a critical security flaw in absolutely all Windows versions that are still being supported, starting with Windows Vista Service Pack 2 and ending with Windows 10.
MS16-013 is an update flagged by Microsoft as critical and fixes a Windows Journal vulnerability that would allow an attacker to get control of an unpatched system.
Microsoft explains:
“This security update resolves a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted Journal file. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.”
“For an attack to be successful, this vulnerability requires that a user open a specially crafted Journal file with an affected version of Windows Journal. In an email attack scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted Journal file to the user and then convincing the user to open the file.”
What to do until the patch is installed:
In case you haven’t yet installed the patch, Microsoft recommends users to avoid opening suspicious file attempts, but also to remove the .jnt file type association to make sure that Windows Journal won’t be launched to allow cybercriminals to exploit the flaw. Needless to say, if you still want to open .jnt files, you need a third-party solution with support for this extension.
Additionally, you can remove Windows JOunrla by disabling the Windows feature that installs it (which is called Tablet PC Components in Windows 7 and 8.1) or deny access to Journal.exe through a firewall.
Obviously, the best way to remain protected is to install the new patch, which is currently being shipped via Windows Update to Windows computers, but as a general recommendation, it’s better not to open any files coming from unknown sources anyway.

PCmover Express is the ONLY software that automatically moves files, settings, and user profiles from an old PC to a new one!
It’s the easiest way to move to a new PC without leaving anything behind, even when there are different versions of Windows on the old and new PC. Nothing is changed on the old PC and nothing is overwritten on the new PC.
PCmover is the ONLY software that automatically transfers or restores all selected files, settings, user profiles, and even programs from an old PC to a new one, or old operating system to a new one.
Microsoft has partnered with Laplink to provide you with data transfer tools that transfer selected files, folders, and more from an old Windows PC to a new Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 PC.
Transfer everything across a Laplink High-Speed Ethernet cable, wireless or wired network, or Laplink USB Transfer Cable. And because 90% of applications transferred are installed ready-to-use on the new PC, there’s usually no need find old CDs, previously downloaded programs, serial number or license codes.

Deal Expires in:
3 day(s) 10 hour(s) 0min(s) 22 second(s)
Step 1: Install
Install PCmover Express on your old PC first, and start your PC to PC transfer.
Step 2: Transfer
Click through the easy-to-use wizard to select which files, settings, and user profiles to transfer to your new PC.
Step 3: Done!
Once you’ve installed PCmover on your new PC and transferred the data, your new PC will have the personality and functionality of your old PC.
To use PCmover Express, you need to have your old Windows XP or later computer and your new Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 PC connected to the Internet.
The PCmover Express step-by-step wizard makes setting up a new PC simple. Download and run the software on your new and old PCs to transfer your selected files, folders, and more. The wizard takes it from there, helping you along the way.
You can easily transfer selected files and folders from your old Windows PC to your new Windows PC.* And if you’ve already personalized settings and preferences on your new PC, those won’t be affected when you transfer your data.

A man walks into a pet shop and says to the owner. "Ok I want to buy a pet, but I don't want one of those boring normal pets, no cats, or dogs or budgies I want something different."
The pet shop owner thinks for a while and says that he has a talking centipede. "ohhhh really?" Says the man "How much?" The owner informs him that the talking centipede is $50. Happy with the unusual offering the man pays the money and takes his new pet home.
On getting home he lays the match box with the centipede in it on the table, opens it and says "Hello Nigel (hey I didn’t name him), do you want to go to the pub for a few beers?" The centipede says nothing. Figuring it must be tired from the journey he decides to leave it for an hour and try again later.
An hour later he opens the match box and says "Hello Nigel, do you want to go to the pub with me for a few beers?" The centipede again says nothing. Ok so now he starting to get suspicious so the man decides he will give it one more hour, and if the centipede doesn't talk he will take it back to the shop for a FULL refund.
An hour later the man opens the match box and says "Hello Nigel (remember I didn’t name him), fancy going to the pub for a few beers?"
The centipede says "I heard you the first time you idiot! I'm still putting my bloody shoes on!"

Organize & Rename

More Great MediaMonkey Gold Benefits
- Automatically lookup Artwork and lyrics so that you don't have to. MediaMonkey can also download the metadata without updating the tags so that it isn't saved until you approve.
- Find music with advanced search functionality that digs through your collection to find tracks according to almost any criteria that you can think of. Search for Composer, Year, Beats per minute; find Lyrics, etc. and stop pulling your hair out trying to find music you know you have.
- Encode unlimited MP3s without having to manually install a new MP3 encoder (the free version of MediaMonkey includes a time-limited LAME MP3 encoder. If you’re so inclined, you can manually replace it with the free LAME encoder, or you can just upgrade to MediaMonkey Gold).
- Catalog your physical CDs and use the Virtual CD feature to keep track of what CDs you own and at the same time see which subset of tracks from those CDs are copied to your hard drive. Instead of tracking your CDs and tracks separately, the virtual CD function gives you an integrated view..
- Import and save audio tracks from Audio CDs and MP3 CDs with unprecedented flexibility using the Virtual CD. It allows you to sample tracks from various sources, select which ones you want to import, and then import and save the files in a single operation.
- Create Previews, short samples of audio tracks, that you can use when trying to decide which audio files you want to add to your collection.
- Use a Sleep Timer to play your music, gradually fade it over a set period of time, and then turn off your PC — perfect for listening to tunes before you go to sleep.
- Burn CDs at the maximum speed permitted by your hardware.
