Downloading Microsoft Office 2007 from TechPlus


All individual software programs of Microsoft Office 2007 Ultimate including Microsoft Office Professional 2007, Visio 2007, Groove 2007, Project 2007, Infopath 2007 and OneNote 2007 software can now be downloaded directly from Microsoft Technet or MSDN Subscriber website as ISO images.

The individual downloads were made available just a couple of hours ago (notice the time in the screenshot above).

The final version of Windows Vista is still awaited. Same goes for Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 which is scheduled for release in the second quarter of 2007.

I will try to write some Office 2007 Tips & Tricks once the 1 GB+ transfer is done.

Update: Jason Tsang informs us that TechNet and MSDN subscribers will be able to download Windows Vista starting November 17, 2006.

Update: The full versions of Office 2007 Ultimate and other Office editions are only available for download with TechNet or MSDN subscriptions. Once the download is over, you can request the Office 2007 product keys from the Subscription Management page itself.

Office 2007 Professional ISO Image is over 400 MB while OneNote 2007 and Visio Professional 2007 are in the 200+ MB range. You would need a software like ISO blaster to installed Office from the ISO CD Images.

Update: I am an official Microsoft Office 2007 user now. The installation of Office 2007, Visio 2007 and OneNote 2007 was extremely smooth and was completed in a couple of minutes. While I didn't have a chance to explore the new Office in detail, a small problem is that you have to be online to access the Office 2007 help system. There were no offline help files for any of the Office 2007 programs. Maybe, Microsoft would supply them on the Office 2007 installation DVD.

How to Download Contacts from Facebook To Outlook Address Book

Facebook users are not too pleased with the "walled garden" approach of Facebook. The reason is simple - while you can easily import your Outlook address book and GMail contacts into Facebook, the reverse path is closed. There's no "official" way to export your Facebook friends email addresses or contact phone numbers out as a CSV file so that you can sync the contacts data with Outlook, GMail or your BlackBerry. Some third-party Facebook hacks like "Facebook Sync" (for Mac) and "Facebook Downloader" (for Windows) did allow you to download your Facebook friends' names, emails, mobile phone number and profile photo to the desktop but they were quickly removed for violation of Facebook Terms of Use. How to Download Contacts from Facebook There are still some options to take Friends data outside the walls of Facebook wall. Facebook offers the Takeout option allowing you to download all Facebook data locally to the disk (include

PhishTank Detects Phishing Websites by Digg Style Voting

OpenDNS, a free service that helps anyone surf the Internet faster with a simple DNS tweak , will announce PhishTank today. PhishTank is a free public database of phishing URLs where anyone can submit their phishes via email or through the website. The submissions are verified by the other community members who then vote for the suspected site. This is such a neat idea as sites can be categorized just based on user feedback without even having to manually verify each and every submission. PhishTank employs the "feedback loop" mechanism where users will be kept updated with the status' of the phish they submit either via email alerts or a personal RSS feed . Naturally, once the PhishTank databases grows, other sites can harness the data using open APIs which will remain free. OpenDNS would also use this data to improve their existing phishing detection algorithms which are already very impressive and efficient. PhishTank | PhishTank Blog [Thanks Allison] Related: Google
