VMWare player

Spoke to kicha (who works for vmware) on new year eve and came to know about the new vmware player.

Free New Product Enables Users to Securely Browse the Internet with New Browser Appliance Powered by Mozilla Firefox, to Quickly Run Pre-configured Software Environments and to Access Their Personal Computing Environments on Any PC

What is more interesting is to know that a lot of companies like BEA Weblogic are releasing VM images for this player.

Virtualization is great and let me plan to get weblogic image and see how it works.

AVG Antivirus

Are you also fed up of anti virus programs running on your PC.

I recently tried AVG antivirus, it is pretty good and have been using it for a while.
Each time i reboot it goes and gets a new patch update and has been very good.

There is a free home edition available too, you can download it at,
