Microsoft Silverlight 2.0.30923.0 RC0 / 1.0.30109.0
A cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in designed to be the source of rich online user experiences more>> A cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in designed to be the source of rich online user experiences
Silverlight is essentially nothing more than Microsofts vision of a cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in designed to be the source of rich online user experiences and to dislodge Flash from its current dominant position on the market. And when the Redmond company said cross-platform they indeed meant it.
Microsoft revealed that it does not plan to leverage the existing Windows Update infrastructure in order to make available Silverlight to all users of the Windows operating system. Such a move would give Silverlight immediate and total access to an install base close to 1 billion users and will make it just as ubiquitous as Adobes Flash. Instead the Redmond company has debuted a number of in-house projects to push the technology, as well as tap its partners for support.
And in this context, Microsoft announced that "Entertainment Tonight," HSN and World Wrestling Entertainment will all deliver Silverlight content to viewers. In fact, a total of 35 Microsoft partners worldwide have announced their support for Silverlight.
Main features:
Compelling Experiences

SQL 2005 Service Manager 2.0.0.5
A replacement for the SQL Server Service Manager that came with SQL Server 2000 but is no longer shipped as part of SQL Server more>> A replacement for the SQL Server Service Manager that came with SQL Server 2000 but is no longer shipped as part of SQL Server
The SQL 2005 Service Manager was designed to be a replacement for the SQL Server Service Manager that came with SQL Server 2000 but is no longer shipped as part of SQL Server.
It allows the management and monitoring of all local SQL Server related services from a convenient system tray application for all editions of SQL Server 2000, 2005 and 2008.
To use SQL2005 Service Manager simply unzip the downloaded file into a folder and double click on SQL2005 Service Manager Setup.msi to install. For the Windows Vista version, please read the Install Instructions in the zip file and ensure the SQLServiceManager service is started before using the application.
The behaviour of SQL2005 Service Manager is very similar to that of the SQL Server Service Manager that is part of Microsoft SQL Server 2000, one exception being that it will always start minimized in the system tray. Another is that the tool only manages local instances.
The system tray icon has a right click menu allowing service and instance selection and control of the currently selected service. Double clicking on the icon or choosing Open SQL2005 Service Manager from the menu will bring up the familiar user interface allowing instance and service selection and control of the selected service. The installer adds a shortcut to your Startup folder so if you dont want it to start automatically simply delete the shortcut.
Main features:
- Manage SQL Server, SQL Agent, Analysis Services, Full Text Search, MSDTC,SSIS and Reporting Services
- Supports all SQL2008, SQL2005 and SQL2000 Editions
- Manage and monitor local services from the system tray
System requirements:
- .NET Framework 2.0.50727
Enhancements:
- Added compatability for SQL 2008 RC0 and filtered SQL 2008 Express SQL Agent service
