Opera Finally free !



As you can see clicking on the link you are invited to welcome to download it for freeeee!

Hang on! Ok so what's really cool about opera now. Check them out here

Ok they've got lot's of things to tell. Some of the things I liked were...

o They apparently claim to have the fastest browser on the planet, which you can check here.

o They have a robust security around the browser.

o I liked the tabbed browsing the most. Saves me the trouble of starting multiple instances. See a flash demo here

o Integrated search : Ok it's more like a wrapper around in your own browser. Ok it's nice fancy thing. See a demo here.

o Voice : I never understood about the whole voice thing. But they're allegedly the first. Read more here.

o All supported Os's possible : That makes it acceptable to larger public.

The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

OS Virtualization comparison: Parallels' Virtuozzo vs the rest

Virtuozzo's main differentiators versus hypervisors center on overhead, virtualization flexibility, administration and cost. Virtuozzo requires significantly less overhead than hypervisor solutions, generally in the range of 1% to 5% compared with 7% to 25% for most hypervisors, leaving more of the system available to run user workloads. Customers can also virtualize a wider range of applications using Virtuozzo, including transactional databases, which often suffer from performance problems when used with hypervisors. On the administration side, customers need to manage, maintain and secure just a single OS instance, while the hypervisor model requires customers to manage many OS instances. Of course, the hypervisor vendors have worked hard to automate much of this process, but it still requires more effort to manage and maintain multiple operating systems than a single instance. Finally, OS virtualization with Virtuozzo has a lower list price than the leading hypervisor for comme...
