New podcatching
client. . . NuParadigm DrizzleCast
Shawn Miller's company has produced a new podcast download tool uses the
built-in Windows Background Intelligent Transfer Service otherwise known as BITS
http://www.nuparadigm.com/Products/Toys/
The beauty of using BITS is that it automatically throttles back on network
activity when you, the human, activate something that performs network activity
and then ramps back up again when you're idle.
Bonus note: It also restarts transfers interrupted in the middle so it's perfect
for road warriors like me.
The UI is a bit sparse but there are serious possibilities here!

ALIVE!
You've got to check it out!
Podcast of the
day:

advantage of innocent users. So security is a must topic for everybody.
