Q-See Cameras Wont Work on Internet Explorer 10 - Microsoft Community

Q-See Cameras Wont Work on Internet Explorer 10 - Microsoft Community: I setup Q-See systems quite often and have no issues with any version of IE, however you must add the local or public IP or DDNS to your trusted sites as well as compability view list.
Lets say you want to view the NVR using your private IP of 192.168.1.27.
Open IE, tap the ALT key on your KBD to show the menu options, click Tools, Internet Options.
Click the "Security" tab, then Trusted sites. Set security level to LOW and click "Apply"
Click Sites and uncheck "Require server verification(https....). Enter the IP 192.168.1.27 and click ADD. Click Close, then Apply, then OK. Close IE and re-launch it. In the address bar, enter http://192.168.1.27 to access your NVR. Before installing the Activex component, tap ALT and click Tools, Compatibility view settings and add the IP to the list: 192.168.1.27. You will then be prompted to install the Activex component and after a minute of 2 will get the login for the NVR.

theunarchiver - Multi-format unarchiver app for OS X. - Google Project Hosting

theunarchiver - Multi-format unarchiver app for OS X. - Google Project Hosting: The Unarchiver is an Objective-C application for uncompressing archive files.
Supports more formats than I can remember. Zip, Tar, Gzip, Bzip2, 7-Zip, Rar, LhA, StuffIt, several old Amiga file and disk archives, CAB, LZX, stuff I don't even know what it is. Read the wiki page for a more thorough listing of formats.
Copies the Finder file-copying/moving/deleting interface for its interface.
Uses the character set autodetection code from Mozilla to auto-detect the encoding of the filenames in the archives.
Supports split archives for certain formats, like RAR.
Version 2.0 uses an archive-handling library built largely from scratch in Objective-C, which makes adding support for new formats and algorithms very easy.
Uses libxad (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libxad/) for older and more obscure formats. This is an old Amiga library for handling unpacking of archives.
Work is being done on making at least the unarchiving engine itself multi-platform.

html - Favicon not showing up in Google Chrome - Stack Overflow

html - Favicon not showing up in Google Chrome - Stack Overflow: I read a bunch of different entries till I finally found a solution that worked for my scenario (ASP.NET MVC4 project).

Instead of using the filename "favicon.ico" for my icon, I renamed it to something else, ie "myIcon.ico". Then I just used exactly what Domi posted:




And this worked!

It's not a caching issue because I tested this with Fiddler - a request for favicon never occurred, even if I cleared my cache "From the beginning of time". I believe it's just some odd bug with chrome?

6 Reasons to Train with Simulation | RaceRocks Inc.

6 Reasons to Train with Simulation | RaceRocks Inc.: Imagine yourself in two situations: you’ve just boarded a brand new jet and are settling into your seat as your pilot announces over the speaker “Welcome everyone, while I’ve had an abundance of practice on simulators, today is my exciting first day of flying a real-life jet!” Now how do you feel? Okay, rewind – you are settling into your seat as your pilot announces “Good morning, I am happy to say you are my first group of passengers, however I have had a few test flights, just no simulation practice. Let’s hope the skies stay clear today!” Now how do you feel? You may find yourself fastening your seatbelt a little tighter…

Only in the past few years has there been a growing acceptance that simulators should be used not only by aircraft pilots, but by other drivers as well, such as train conductors, truck drivers, and construction workers to name a few. Simulators are becoming an indispensable training tool and have proven to have a number of benefits. Below are 6 reasons why you may want to consider implementing simulators into your training methods.

Tutorial: How to Crack WPA/WPA2

Introduction

This tutorial walks you through cracking WPA/WPA2 networks which use pre-shared keys. I recommend you do some background reading to better understand what WPA/WPA2 is. The Wiki links page has aWPA/WPA2 section. The best document describing WPA is Wi-Fi Security - WEP, WPA and WPA2. This is the link to download the PDF directly. The WPA Packet Capture Explained tutorial is a companion to this tutorial.
WPA/WPA2 supports many types of authentication beyond pre-shared keys. aircrack-ng can ONLY crack pre-shared keys. So make sure airodump-ng shows the network as having the authentication type of PSK, otherwise, don't bother trying to crack it.
There is another important difference between cracking WPA/WPA2 and WEP. This is the approach used to crack the WPA/WPA2 pre-shared key. Unlike WEP, where statistical methods can be used to speed up the cracking process, only plain brute force techniques can be used against WPA/WPA2. That is, because the key is not static, so collecting IVs like when cracking WEP encryption, does not speed up the attack. The only thing that does give the information to start an attack is the handshake between client and AP. Handshaking is done when the client connects to the network. Although not absolutely true, for the purposes of this tutorial, consider it true. Since the pre-shared key can be from 8 to 63 characters in length, it effectively becomes impossible to crack the pre-shared key.
The only time you can crack the pre-shared key is if it is a dictionary word or relatively short in length. Conversely, if you want to have an unbreakable wireless network at home, use WPA/WPA2 and a 63 character password composed of random characters including special symbols.

Communications Plan - Portfolio - Adams Jette: Why a strategic communications plan?
A strategic communications plan strives to fine-tune your organization's way of reaching out and interacting with key stakeholders, and offers ways to achieve specific, measurable objectives. It is an investment that should pay dividends not just in the short-run, but also over the longer term.
How you communicate with your audience defines the way they will see you, and how they will respond to what you have to say. But communicating effectively requires buy-in at all levels of an organization. More than that, your message can only resonate by first ensuring that you have a well thought-out plan that clearly identifies:

The Best Alternative Apps to Everything in Adobe Creative Cloud | Mac.AppStorm

The Best Alternative Apps to Everything in Adobe Creative Cloud | Mac.AppStorm: It’d be hard to be a creative professional and not have heard the drama around Adobe’s move to subscriptions with Creative Cloud‘s release. We’ve covered the good and bad of the move to subscriptions, and even wrote an Open Letter to Adobe about the changes. Creative Cloud has many good things — it’s even cheaper than buying Master Collection and upgrading every time — and the upgraded apps have a lot of nice new features. There’s even the value-add of font and file sync. But, if you want to own your apps, or not have to pay for upgrades and new features you don’t want, though, it’s hard to see the upside to Adobe’s new move to a subscription-only system.
The good thing is, Adobe’s got more competition for its apps than ever before, especially on the Mac. There’s an embarrassment�of riches on the App Store and beyond for everything from photo editing to web design to animation. We’ve rounded up the best alternate apps to everything Adobe sells, from Acrobat to Premiere and everything in-between, so if you’re not so excited about shelling out $50/month to Adobe, here’s your chance to jump ship with great new apps.
