Free Download Lattes Portable Firefox 11 Final Edition

Free Download Lattes Portable Firefox 11 Final Edition

So much to ask for an explanation of Portable Firefox 11, I've never tried this portable apps and before I had time to write about Mozilla Firefox Portable Edition, today special for Free Portable Software blog lovers we will give it to you the free download lattes portable Firefox 11 Final edition!

The following is a little bit about Mozilla Firefox Portable app :
Mozilla Firefox is a free Web browser descended from the Mozilla Application Suite and managed by Mozilla Corporation. Mozilla Firefox would be the 2nd most favored internet browser
Portable Mozilla Firefox 11 Features such as:

Anti-Phishing - Shop and do business safely on the Internet. Mozilla Firefox gets a fresh update of web forgery sites 48 times in a day, so if you try to visit a fraudulent site that’s pretending to be a site you trust (like your bank), a browser message—big as life—will stop you.

Anti-Malware - portable Firefox protects you from viruses, worms, trojan horses and spyware delivered over the Web. If you accidentally access an attack site, it will warn you away from the site and tell you why it isn’t safe to use.

Anti-Virus Software - Mozilla Firefox integrates elegantly with your Windows antivirus software. When you download a file, your computer’s antivirus program automatically checks it to protect you against viruses and other malware, which could otherwise attack your computer.

Instant Web Site ID - Want to be extra sure about a site’s legitimacy before you make a purchase? Click on a site favicon for an instant identity overview. Another click digs deeper: how many times have you visited? Are your passwords saved? Check up on suspicious sites, avoid Web forgeries and make sure a site is what it claims to be.

Forget This Site - Having second thoughts about having visited a certain Web site? With this feature, you can remove every trace of that site from your browser—no questions asked!

Parental Controls - Enforce parental control settings you’ve entered on Windows 7 — stop unwanted downloads and more.

Private Browsing - Sometimes it’s nice to go undercover, so turn this feature on and protect your browsing history. You can slip in and out of private browsing mode quickly, so it’s easy to go back to what you were doing before as if nothing ever happened. It’s great if you’re doing your online banking on a shared computer or checking email from an Internet café.

Outdated Plug-In Detection - Some web pages require that you install small applications called plugins to watch videos, play games or view documents. These plugins are written by other companies, and it can be hard to make sure they’re always up to date. Since outdated plugins are a security risk, Firefox will let you know when you have a plugin that’s vulnerable to attack and direct you to the right site to get the updated version. View our plugin check page.

Add-ons - Firefox portable app looks for a secure connection before installing or updating add-ons, 3rd party software, and Personas.

Customized Security Settings - Control the level of scrutiny you’d like portable Firefox to give a site and enter exceptions—sites that don’t need the third degree. Customize settings for passwords, cookies, loading images and installing add-ons for a fully empowered Web experience.

Clear Recent History - Clear all your private data or just your activity over the past few hours with a few quick clicks. You have full control over what to delete, and then your info is gone for good—on your own computer or the one at your local library. It’s that easy.

The NASDAQ exchange has revealed that a software SNAFU spoiled the Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) IPO. The problems caused stock price quotes to be unavailable and orders to be canceled.

Why Windows on ARM won't suffer from the Android fragmentation problem

While it may seem as if this might lead to fragmentation as on Android, that won't happen with WOA.

Why Buy Antivirus Software?

Today, an unprotected computer isn’t just vulnerable, it’s probably already infected. New viruses, spyware, trojans, worms and other malware debut every day. New threats are disguised to bypass other security measures and specifically designed to catch your PC off guard. The virus landscape has also changed. Viruses that used to be annoying pranks have evolved into pernicious threats capable of destroying your computer and stealing your identity. The benefits of installing a basic security solution on your PC are obvious, but the cost in system slowdown used to make it tough to bear. Luckily, modern antivirus software haven’t just improved their level of protection, they’ve significantly improved resource efficiency and overall speed. You can have ultimate protection without giving up your resources. With advanced technologies and straightforward usability, antivirus software is more effective than ever. Say goodbye to annoying security warnings and noticeable slowdown; current antivirus programs deliver constant protection and can actually speed up your computer.

The last generation of antivirus software brought advanced heuristic detection into the mix. Continuing to improve, the current lineup of antivirus products often incorporate further developed proactive protection with better behavior checking and file-reputation analysis. Several of the products incorporate in-the-cloud security and other advanced technologies to increase safety and convenience. From gamer modes to battery saving settings to integrated web-link scanners, antivirus applications are more versatile and have upped the ante for features and functionality.

On this site you’ll find a side-by-side comparison of the best antivirus software, helpful articles on computer security, security tips and tricks, buying guides, videos and comprehensive reviews to help you make an informed decision. Three antivirus software products achieve the best test results from AV-Test: Bitdefender Antivirus, Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Panda Antivirus Pro.

EWallet 7.3 for iOS Released
May 2nd, 2012 by Ken
We’re happy to report that eWallet® 7.3 is now available in the App Store for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. The main new feature in this release is the built-in support for iCloud. If you have a device running iOS 5, you can enable iCloud Sync, which not only backs up your wallet files to iCloud, but also makes it possible to seamlessly sync with another iOS device without having to go through a PC or Mac first. eWallet 7.3 for iOS requires at least iOS 4 and the iCloud support requires iOS 5. To get started, just press the cloud icon in eWallet and then turn on “Enable Cloud Sync”. We’ve heard from some customers that they don’t want their wallets stored in the cloud; that’s fine too, the new iCloud feature is completely optional.

We’ve been getting great ideas and feedback about other features people would like to see in eWallet — thank you and keep them coming!

Get all the info about eWallet here on our site.

eWallet for Mac 7.3 Update
March 12th, 2012 by Ken
Not too long ago when we released the 7.3 update for Windows PC, we promised a new Mac version as well. We’re happy to report that the new Mac version of eWallet® is now available in the Mac App Store. This new version has a ton of new features but I’ll outline the major ones here:

Live search — search is always available now, so finding your cards is very fast
Clipboard — Can now copy/paste encrypted cards both within and between wallets
Category information — added to search results and recent cards list for better context
Password generator — for building high quality passwords quickly and easily to your specifications
Printing support — print your whole wallet or a selection
This upgrade is free for all users who already own a license of eWallet version 7 for the Mac. If you purchased a copy from Apple using their Mac App Store, then you’ll be able to use the Update feature in that store to get the new version. Get all the info about eWallet here on our site.

eWallet GO! update for Windows Phone 7
March 9th, 2012 by Ken
Microsoft has released major upgrade for Windows Phone 7 , code named “Mango” (7.5). The 7.5 release has a ton of new features; you can read more about them on the “What’s New” page. We wanted to build a new version of eWallet GO!® that that would take advantage of some of these new features and this week we released a new version (1.7) to the Marketplace. The major changes to the new version include:

Search — you can now quickly search through all your cards for the information you are looking for
Tiles — now you can pin your favorite cards to the start menu so eWallet GO! opens directly to those cards
Fast application switching — allows users to switch quickly between eWallet GO! and other running applications
Trial version — Microsoft has made it pretty darn easy to add a trial version in Marketplace so we threw that in too!
This upgrade is free for all users who already purchased a license for eWallet GO! in Marketplace (the upgrade requires Windows Phone 7.5). If you don’t already have the release, you can get it using the link below, or simply search for eWallet GO! on your Windows Phone 7 device.

eWallet for Windows PC 7.3 Update
January 23rd, 2012 by Ken
Today we released eWallet® for Windows PC version 7.3 with a raft of features requested by our users. You are not shy about contacting us with feature requests and new ideas for eWallet, and we’re very grateful for that!

The new features include:

Live search: search is always available now, so finding your cards is very fast
Improved Flex View: this view has been updated with a cleaner, easier to read look
Skype: now if you have Skype installed, you can click on a phone number/Skype ID in eWallet to make the call
Printing: choose to print a selection (card or category), or print your entire wallet
Recently Used List: by popular request, you can now remove a wallet name from eWallet’s “Recently Used Wallets” list
CSV files are now an import option
Several UI improvements including Ribbon bar changes and a gloss effect on cards
Many miscellaneous enhancements and bug fixes
This upgrade is free for all users who already own a license of eWallet version 7 for the Windows PC. Get all the info about eWallet here on our site.
Licensed users can download a copy here.
And for Mac users, stay tuned. We’re working on eWallet for Mac 7.3 as well.

eWallet for Android
December 13th, 2011 by Ken
We’re happy to announce that by popular demand, we’ve developed and released a full version of eWallet® for the Android platform. In April 2010 we released the eWallet Viewer for Android which let people read, but not change, their eWallet data directly on their Android phone. You’ve made it clear you want to edit as well without using a PC so as of today, we’re replacing the Viewer with this new editable version.

Some of the features (in addition to editing), include:

Secure storage for passwords, usernames, PINs
Strong 256-bit AES encryption
Secure storage for bank and credit card info
Time-out locks to keep your info safe
Live URLs that launch the websites you know, without the dangers of phishing emails or typing errors taking you elsewhere
We hoped to make eWallet on Android completely free for existing Viewer users but apparently the Android Market doesn’t allow for a free app to later become a paid app. So, we decided to do the next best thing: for a limited time, the eWallet for Android will be available for 99 cents (in the U.S.).

A big thank you for all your support over these last fourteen years – and keep the feedback coming, we’re always happy to hear from you.

Update: January 3, 2012, the special pricing is now over; Android pricing is now similar to prices on our other mobile platforms.

Translation and Localization, Too Overcomplicated?!
By Nabil Freij (7 posts) on May 22, 2012 at 9:14 am
Comments (3)
Not all translation service buyers have the same needs. Requirements differ depending on where companies are in their global evolution. With varying needs and priorities, and a massive selection of translation service providers estimated to exceed 20,000 independent vendors worldwide and growing, how do you decide who to choose?
Some companies elect to come up with elaborate RFPs. These RFPs frequently contain exhaustive details to help differentiate between, and narrow down, suitable vendors. But often these RFPs are very time consuming to create, respond to and analyze, potentially overcomplicating the process.
The mere fact that the translation service industry is so fragmented fashions the need to overcomplicate matters. After all, companies want to create differentiators to claim a competitive edge.

Google+ for Business: Hype or Helpful?
By Wendy Thomas (16 posts) on May 17, 2012 at 1:38 pm
Comments (0)
With so many social media options out there, and with more on the horizon every day, it’s a challenge to know whether your business can benefit from any of them or not.
Google+ is one of the new guys, and there are mixed reviews so far. If you’re already using Twitter and Facebook and getting good results, then you might not want or need another avenue right now. If you’re new to social network platforms and still working on goals for what you want to accomplish, Google+ should be thrown into the mix.
Google+ ties several Google products that serve businesses together. One point especially worth noting is that with Google being a top search engine in the world, public posts made on Google+ automatically rank higher than any others in a Google search. What’s not to like about that?

Effective B2B Lead Generation Doesn't Sell Your Product
By Kevin Murphy (15 posts) on May 16, 2012 at 10:11 am
Comments (0)
In the world of B2B marketing, there are three kinds of prospects:
1. Those in the last stage of the buy cycle and in the process of evaluating solutions.
2. Individuals with a pain or a problem that's big enough to take action to solve, but who are beginning to look around for information on possible solutions.
3. People just beginning to realize there's a problem, but the pain is not yet big enough to take action to solve.
When your company develops a product, its purpose is to provide a solution to a known problem. The thinking is, "Companies have this problem, so we'll create a solution that they'll jump on." It is logical, from that point of view, to focus all your marketing on selling the product.
Unfortunately, the only prospects this approach attracts are those that fall into category #1 -- completely missing those who are beginning their research or are just beginning to see a pain point. To generate the maximum number of leads in marketing efforts -- to build a long-term pipeline of potential buyers -- B2B marketing must reach all three groups.
