In 2004, commercial software and free software flourished, these software gave our lives, work, and access to great convenience. But here must return a class of software, and they are identified by some people because of some reasons, but they are referred to in some of the people, referred to here. There are many kinds of controversial software, and the criterion of judging disputes is to agree with attitude. Some people hold attitudes, the controversy index, used to measure the intensity of disputes, and the fierce comments are "most", here only from the user, The point of view between users and developers discusses whether the software has controversy, not from developers and developers, such as software to steal code, and disputes in the interface are serious, and are not discussed here. Then, let's take a review of which software in 2004 can be classified into the most controversial software.
First, 3721 network real name
Dispute Index: ★★★★★
3721 Network Real Name is a plugin for Internet Explorer, providing Chinese real name URLs and search functions, you can directly enter Chinese URLs directly when online, if you enter "Medical Network" in the browser website, you can direct the Medical Network home page or display this page Prove that you have installed 3721 network real names or Internet assistants.
3721 The reason why the network is listed as the top of the most controversial software, indeed its "unique", first of all, it does not ask, when you browse some webpages, often there is a short pause, then pop up a window to install you The plug-in, seriously interferes with users, and in some popular software, it is also necessary to install it by default, which is a point in which many people are more disgusted. Second, 3721 network real names are convenient for users to access the Internet, and they have made some small actions, such as starting with the system start, slowing slow online speed, causing system unstable, causing the computer to turn off the Explorer.exe error, etc.. The most interesting thing is to ask Buddha to send a Buddha. Although 3721 list: "If you think it is not necessary, you can completely uninstall the real name plugin at any time by the 'Add / Remove Program' in the Control Panel to close the real name." Moreover 3721 The client cannot be deleted in this instruction, and the user has to manually delete the registry related information and files.
Some anti-virus software, such as Russia's AVP (Kaspersky Anti-Virus) lists 3721 network real names as a virus, assuming that the killing contains 3721 network real-name software, will report to find a virus, and later AVP cancels this issue. This illustrates people's attitude towards these rogue software from the other side. There are a lot of methods for these software, such as third-party immune software such as NOTROUBLEME.
In addition to 3721, this type of Internet Explorer plugin is one of the types of software that users compare, including: Baidu search plug-in, Sina point, CNNIC Chinese domain name, etc., and some website pop-up ads, but dispute is not as good as 3721 Network real name.
Second, Google Desktop Desktop Search
Dispute Index: ★★★★ ☆
On October 14, 2004, Google launched a desktop search tool called "Google Desktop", which allows users to search directly on the hard disk or Internet, see from their download address desktop.google.com, current Google is also just a beta test version.
Users can search for various information contained in various files in the hard disk, including email, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, text files, AOL instant messaging software for email, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, text files, Internet Explorer browsed web pages, etc. . The Google Desktop tool establishes indexing for such files and data, and extracts keywords, users can search for local information through the 4664 port of the local web service, and switch to search Internet information quickly through the 4664 port of the local Web service. With Google Desktop, Windows built-in file searches can be completely retired. Although the desktop search is convenient for users to search for hard drives, there are also places where the controversy is easy to cause privacy leaks, and users can quickly find information with critical or privacy, and then transfer to other locations. For example, someone uses your computer when you leave, enter password to search the password you record, use @ Hotmail.com to find the MSN dialog information. If you are online on a public computer, collect emails, you may be entered into the database by Google Desktop and the information is exposed. More helplessly, Google Desktop can search for hard disk hidden files, so this tricks to deal with the koasters of the primary rookie are also invalid on Google Desktop, and once you are entered into the database, you delete the original file, still from Google Desktop. . Fortunately, the test shows that the Google Desktop search feature cannot be used through the network, that is, others cannot search for information in your hard drive through the network.
Third, BT download
Dispute Index: ★★★★
BT (BitTorrent) multi-point shared protocol software is a type of resource sharing software that has caused more controversial software in recent years. BT is a model of "free" software, reflects a spirit of "everyone is me, I am", which makes full use the user's side to download bandwidth, so you can download it from multiple users at the same time, Sharing the bandwidth pressure of the server, so that big files can be downloaded quickly, and more people can download.
The places where this type of software has controversial is that BT is convenient for yourself, but slows down someone else's Internet speed, because BT sees a large number of bandwidth, in most speed-up network connectivity, like ADSL, ISDN, can lead to sharing Other user network speeds of the line network becomes extremely slow; and the broadband network accessible in the local area network, it is not only an impact on the Internet speed of other users of the same network, but also propose problems to ISP, limited bandwidth is a few users. Occupation, it must be complained by a large number of users, but the increase bandwidth undoubtedly increases the cost, so some parts of the ISP turn off the BT port, but is strongly dissatisfied by BT users, like Chongqing Netcom, the Great Wall Broadband in Xiamen is due to this matter, I am so booking, and even intend to go to the beloved hall.
Another point, because BT is designed for large-capacity files, it can be seen that most of the user download is movie, games, software, which will involve some pornography, piracy, and infringement. A friend said: " Since I have BT download, I haven't bought a movie disc. "BT's shared function is powerful and downloaded quickly, there is no doubtful impact on the opposite side. If you don't add management, you will be brought back, the network will become porn, piracy The temperature of the development of bad information, some relevant government authorities have been combined with telecommunications, network service providers, etc., and improve monitoring management, be sure to make network culture normally.
Lenovo's music software Napster provokes to controversial, resulting in severe strikes and heavy losses, NAPSTER finally used in the US album industry. The more severe copyright protection regulations, such software survival space will be affected, including Napster, software, point-to-point (P2P) software, point-to-point (P2P) software, and BT, multi-point sharing software, many ISPs already in the service agreement Clearly point not to open the BT port to avoid disputes. Four, Windows XP Starter Edition
Dispute Index: ★★★ ☆
If you are defined in strict, Windows XP Starter Edition belongs to the operating system, not a single software, but it is a collection of software, so it is still listed as one of the most disputed software.
Windows XP Starter Edition (SE) is a cheap operating system provided by Microsoft's non-English Third World countries, which is Windows XP's "slimming version", which is cheap than the family version, the lowest price may be 20 US dollars, about 20 For RMB 180, it is the cheapest graphical interface operating system that Microsoft has introduced. This plan is initially launched in Russia and other countries, and Asia has three countries in Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand, while the future will be promoted to many countries in Asia. From a launch, it immediately attracted countless people's eye, and people are guess whether Microsoft will issue this version in China, but Microsoft has clearly indicated that there is no implementation of this version in China.
In order to avoid Starter Edition competition with Home Edition, Microsoft cuts part of the function, such as SE cannot be connected to the LAN, but can be connected to the Internet; SE cannot run more than three programs at the same time, Microsoft claims that these functional restrictions do not affect Windows The use of XP, because these features are not large for some beginners.
The dispute here is whether China's computer users will look forward to the arrival of Windows XP SE, whether the price of 180 yuan (assuming) is reasonable, cut the function's Windows XP can be accepted?
In the domestic high-level piracy, in addition to some industry software or specialized software, it is difficult to see the genuine shadow in the field of popular software. Although some developers are actively promoting 29 yuan to popularize genuine programs, cultivate users' awareness of genuine software, but it is conceivable that which is more attractive than a pirated disc of 4 yuan. Similarly, can the 180 yuan SE can attract users? There is also, it is obvious, because the network is quite developed, it can download the entire Windows XP ISO ISO, and then the disc is very convenient.
In addition, for Windows XP SE, it is not possible to provide a complete function. It is also quite vocabular. Although Microsoft has not fully disclosed a detailed list of cutting functions, from the published restriction conditions, it is conceivable that it will affect familiar Windows. XP users, even unfamiliar with the choice of Windows XP computer primary users. Windows XP SE seemed to recall the era of MS-DOS single task operating system, although many programs can still be executed background service, but most user interfaces can not be opened at the same time, which will make people feel uncomfortable.
Microsoft launched the purpose of this operating system to combat piracy, I am afraid that in the country that Microsoft is not decided, the author analyzes that this SE is most likely to be a PC manufacturer to deliver Microsoft, but if they have to pay, you can choose Minimum cost. SE Plan is feasible to be in China, so it is listed as one of the controversial software. It is called ★★★
V. Windows XP SP2 Dispute Index: ★★★ ☆
Windows XP SP2 has recently been hot topic. It is also a pirated issue. Most users cannot install SP2. The author is deeply affected by SP2. Because of the activation failure, they have to reload the system, in the first class of Tianya Forum After the experience of netizens, after thousands of hard work, finally activated.
No matter the purpose of upgrading to SP2, in fact, SP2 itself has many controversial places. First, SP2 is more resource consumed than SP1 and non-patched XP, and due to a more bloated, the speed is slower, and more destined is to upgrade to After SP2, the software is not compatible. The author used the McAfee unable to upgrade the virus library online, although this anti-virus software is not used in China, but the author is prejugged to use it and Norton, and the results have no way to turn to Norton. As for some software or games, such as StarCraft or Imperial Era, although compatibility issues, as long as you ignore the error prompt information at the beginning, there is no problem when playing games, but no longer pursue, but not know other programs Unable to execute on SP2, according to the ASSETMETRIX statistics SP2, there is a 10% compatibility problem, and the World World Network also has a compilation.
Since SP2 enhances network protection, memory protection, email security, and browser protection, open web speeds will slow down, some security issues occur when using browsers, such as websites, forums, chat room verification issues. Considering that most users are SP1, after upgrading to SP2, the activation process is more troublesome, and if you can't get into the desktop, you need to reinstall the system's danger, but if you must upgrade to SP2, the author sees the market selling The Shanghai government version has integrated SP2, which can be installed directly to the province's own upgrades.
