Winzip 11 Available for Download - Screenshots

In less than a month of announcing the first public beta, Corel today released the final public version of their ubiquitous compression software - Winzip 11.0.

The interface of Winzip 11.0 is exactly like it's predecessor but some new features have been added in this version.

We take a closer look at some of these enhancements which are new to Winzip 11.0 and also help you decide if you should upgrade from Winzip 10 ?

1. Winzip 11.0 can open .RAR and .BZ2 files though you would still need Winrar to write rar files.


2. You can now upload zipped files to an FTP server or burn them to a CD or a DVD while staying inside the Winzip interface. No external application is required.

3. Winzip 11.0 lets you examine the image contents of zip files as thumbnails without extracting the files to a temp directory. This is very similar to the Windows Explorer functionality.


Now the next important question - should you upgrade to Winzip 11 or should you buy Winzip at all ?

If you are a developer or backup personnel who has to zip documents or source code regularly and then upload thm to FTP servers or burn them on DVDs, Winzip will make things a lot simpler for you. Set these routine tasks as a job and Winzip will do everything automatically for you.

But if are looking for a compression tool to just extract or create zip files, you can easily do without Winzip. Windows XP users don't need any extra software while others may get 7-zip that's free and supports rar, xpi and zip.

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
