VTX is a communication package including the most used/liked game communicationprograms with servers. TeamSpeak 2.0.29.47 Client, TeamSpeak 2.0.33.7 BETA Client, VTX 2.14 Client, VTX 2.14 Client, VTX 2.30 Klient, VTX 2.32 BETA Client, TeamSpeak 2.0.20.1 Server, VTX 2.12 Server and VTX 2.31 Server.
Why should i use VTX?
VTX (also known as VentriloX) doesnt only go under the same principle as VentriloMix and Multi Ventrilo. VTX also take care of the look on the clients, the size of the clients, possibility to have multiple clients running, servers for the clients, the size of the installation, a gamer- and beginnerfriendly configuration after installation, removal of unwanted things, possibility to have different installationmaterial for those who wants that and hotkeys for quick usage.
* Look on the clients
The icons on all clients are switched, the icons inside the clients are switched, the connect button have been inhanced, xp/vista theme support, different logo and versionname on each client and all the clients have the same form/size with buttons etc. on the same spot. We have rearranged the selection on the rightclick menu; "Copy comment, Mute and Send Page" are now quicker to use.
* The size of the clients
All the ".exe" files are reduced down to 30% with PEcompact2.
* Possibility to have multiple clients running:
You can have as many VTX clients open at the same time as you please if you use the start-menu shortcuts. You can also have up to two TeamSpeak clients running at the same time. (This wont work if youre trying to open a VTX client multiple times using the hotkeys on your keyboard (if you do that, windows will only be switching between the VTX clients you have in process).
* Servers for the clients
All the clients VTX is containing has servers which can be used with the clients. If your running "VTX Default" configuration, you can setup a "VTX 2.xx Server" followed by opening "VTX 2.xx Client" and selecting the server "My VTX Server", and then the VTX client will enter the server you just setup on your computer. Default admin password to the VTX servers are "vtx" (small capitals). This and lots more can be changed by opening the "VTX 2.xx Server Configuration" on your start-menu (if you change the port, you will need to change that on your VTX clients My VTX Server aswell). "VTX 2.12 server" works with the "VTX 2.14 Client" and "VTX 2.31 Server" works with the "VTX 2.30- and 2.32 BETA clients". (Note: Dont try to give other people the IP "127.0.0.1" to connect to your server over LAN, this IP will only work from your own computer ( since its local host). Give them your LAN IP instead.
* The size of the installation
VTXs Installation is around 3MB. This is 50% of VentriloMixs size. The reason for this is compressed exe files, removal of sounds and unwanted stuff.
* A Gamer- and beginnerfriendly configuration after installation
First time you open one of the VTX clients after installation and want to change your name, you can press "Clone". Doing so will let you use "VTX Default" configuration instead of Ventrilos default configuration. This configuration will setup "My VTX Server", CAPSLOCK will be your talkbutton, outbound and inbound will be increased a bit, all sounds except Page etc. are removed and all the VTX clients will minimize to the tray-menu instead of the taskbar. On TeamSpeak weve also changed some settings. After installation its the best sound quality, CAPSLOCK is the talkbutton and all sounds are removed. You can ofcourse change the configurationsettings as you please afterwards.
* Removal of unwanted things
We have removed everything weve found irrelevant on the VTX clients. Like about- and closebuttons, sounds etc.
* Possibility to have different installationmaterial for those who wants that
We have chosen to have four different installationparts for VTX. You wont be needing more than two of them. You can choose between "VTX", "VTX Different Hotkeys (DH)" and "VTX No Hotkeys (NH)". You can also add "VTX Sound Addon" containing the sounds for the VTX- and TeamSpeakclients.

This toolkit will uninstall Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 using default files and settings from Microsoft.
It is only intended for use if normal uninstallation methods failed.
Some users are unable to remove Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 because the original files and registry keys needed to uninstall Internet Explroer 7 Beta 2 are no longer on the system, usually because a cleaner tool deleted them to save disk space.

The Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 (which is formerly known as WinFX), is the new managed code programming model for Windows. It combines the power of the .NET Framework 2.0 with new technologies for building applications that have visually compelling user experiences, seamless communication across technology boundaries, and the ability to support a wide range of business processes.
These new technologies are Windows Presentation Foundation, Windows Communication Foundation, Windows Workflow Foundation, and Windows CardSpace (formerly code named "Infocard"). Microsoft plans to ship .NET Framework 3.0 as part of the Windows Vista operating system. In addition, Microsoft is making these technologies available on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. The following Community Technology Preview of .NET Framework 3.0 enables you to continue experimenting with early builds of these technologies, get acquainted with the development experience, and provide feedback to Microsoft.
Compatability with Windows Vista Beta2
This CTP (Community Tech Preview) is intended for users of Windows Vista build 5456, Windows XP, or Windows 2003 Server. It is not supported for users running the Windows Vista Beta 2 for .NET Framework 3.0 development. If you are using Windows Vista Beta 2 for .NET Framework 3.0 development, we recommend that you do not install this version of the CTP and instead use the Beta 2 release. The .NET Framework 3.0 June CTP runtime is a later version than the one that ships with Windows Vista Beta 2, and code that uses the .NET Framework 3.0 Beta2 will not work with this CTP.
Note: This is a pre-RTM release. Therefore, do not install these builds on machines you depend on. If you have a previous version of Avalon ("Windows Presentation Foundation"), Indigo ("Windows Communication Foundation"), or pre-released versions of .NET Framework 2.0 installed you must read this before download. Late breaking installation information: please follow the instruction in section 2.1 of the readme before installing .NET Framework 3.0 June CTP.
