pretty good mag i must say
for the first time in abt a year digits come close to standards set by itself
i must say a very good attempt to bring in the new year digit style
the articles were amazin
like all i loved the cyborg times
and in feedback of december i had mentioned we wanna know more abt broadband and this month digit gave us an article on that too
that was a very good piece ... thank you soo much
pardon my greed but now that we know what the conenctions are/will be like .. what abt the download caps/port blockin that these ISPs do ?
we are being held back partly because of the kind of connections that are provided to the consumer end !
also i predicted the GPU review .. and there it was .. first month of the year
tho im a little shocked by the 5700 gettin the best buy gold award

thanx for the projector shootout as well ... but they were only 800*600
but considering the costs i know where u stopped
the digit crack this contest is gettin a lil weird tho .. i dunno why
the desktop according to me was nuthin to sign home abt

animation article on incredibles was good and informative

ARCHOS GMINI400 :drool:

still no prices in digit zero1 awards

the new and notables ... well are new but not that notable
i miss the droolmaal style
themed and really droolable !

"rocking to iTunes" really rocked .. thanx
im new to it. .. and that really helped

the whole bit on "the year of the upgrade" was very good
i love to read the digit diary its fun !

im workin on a letter to send to readers letters do read it atleast

all in all thank you for listening to the readers
december was ok ... better than the standards that were being followed ...
but jan is what seems to be gettin ard a change in "di9it"

HELP!!

I have a samsung DVD/CDRW combo. OS-> Win 98 SE

The moment I put in the DVD, it autoruns and I get the main window. If I click on the link for 'by demand software'[you have given it some other name; its the right most link], my PC hangs and I get this DOS message:

"Windows has been stopped due to stack overflow. Please edit <something>.ini and increase the stack value"

Please help.

PS: Some links work fine; for others I encounter the same problem.

VIRUS in the DVD

there is virus in the small games section of the DVD.
the name of virus is TrojanDownloader.Win32.TSupdate.e
It is present in Bombermania, Galaxy_Invaders, PacManic_Christmas games.
BE carefull not to install these games. PcCillin detects the viruses during installation of these games but fail to detect them while maually scaning the DVD.
eScan detects the viruses by manually scaning the DVD(the name of virus is that from eScan)

Although the DVD contents this time are of high quality,
there are lots of spywares and adwares bundled with the stuff.
I guess thats coz u guys tried to provide as many FREEWARE as
possible.

Please try to take care in future that you don provide FREEWARE
with adwares or spywares (i even found browser hijackers ).

The Magazine contents this time were much better than last few
issues i'd say. So, keep up the good work 'Team Digit'

n Finally, I can't understand why you are still providing CDs with
same content as DVDs? This doesn't make any sense to me at all.
Atleast put some value to the CD for the users having DVD-ROM.
Include some 'exclusive' CD-only contents...

Well, for starters, everyone doesn't have a DVD ROM. Suppose they(persons not having DVD ROM) have suggested some program for the upcoming month's issue, and they find out that it has been put in the DVD, how will they be able to use it?

hmm...serious matter :roll:
maybe Digit shud start two sections in the future like
'DVD Requests' & 'CD Requests'
that'll solve the problem..

I miss OLD Digit, Your Articles are TOO "BOLD" and uninteresting. Too Business like; The idea of Changing Digit was great, till a certain point It have been great if you have just started giving DVD, instead of changing the whole magazine. 85% of your articles are pratically useless for normal Pc User, and they lack depth. The game reviews are taken from SKOAR! They are quite monotonus. I loved Mr. Sumods' Editorial, but I HATE Mr. Sachins' Editorials. He doesn't know what he's talking about, he's articles define a new meaning to: Boring, Repetive, Uninspiring, monotonus, so-so and the list goes on and on! Digit needs some HEAVY IMPROVMENT! Besides this, your MAGAZINE is GREAT! Thumbs Up

lara Cricket Missing From CD

I subscribe for only digit CD (no DVD).

On the CD Cover there is a good pic of Lara Cricket but it is not included on the CD .
its a great disappointment.

 

[raj14]

Her LEGS seem fine to me, alltho a little "CHOPPY". No offense Ms. Aneesha Dalal(or Mr. who knows?) try to wash your feet before Doing a "PHOTOSHOOT". @Mexi Xavier: Sir, Adobe Photoshop is NOT just for Adding Hands. Try too blur her legs TOO.

Re: Beware!!! ADware + Spyware in games and software!!!

All the free games have spyware/adware. For the first time in five years my PC got infected just because I trusted software from DIGIT.

Pleeeeaaaase do not give these kind of things in future.

I installed the bombermania game from the jan 2005 CD..and it infected my computer with loads of ads and spyware!!! i also tried to install one of the MSN name utilities from the CD..luckily i read the license agreement which stated that the 180SearchAssistant would also be installed..180SearchAssistant is a well known adblaster..it'll give you lots of popups!

Has anyone else come across other instances of spyware/adware in the bundled software??? post them here!
