Sydney, Australia – January 31, 2009 – Auslogics Software announces that its computer optimization product Auslogics BoostSpeed now fully supports and optimizes the new operating system Microsoft Windows 7 (Beta).

While Windows 7 is faster than Vista, it still requires an ongoing maintenance, such as disk and registry clean-ups and defragmentation, to keep running fast and stable. Without frequent disk and registry clean-ups junk files start taking up disk space and registry errors compromise system stability. Auslogics BoostSpeed removes junk files and fixes registry errors, as well as defragments both hard disk drives and the system registry, placing the file fragments together for faster disk access.

Apart from fully supporting Windows 7, BoostSpeed 4.3 now supports the new Google Chrome browser, Internet Explorer 8 (Beta), FireFox 3, Opera, and Safari for Windows. Unlike other similar software, BoostSpeed checks hardware and Internet Connection specifications first and then applies changes tailored to the particular computer configuration.

The new version also introduces Service Manager. It’s a new tool from Auslogics that makes managing Windows services safe and easy even for novice users. This new utility contains services descriptions and rating, and most importantly, detailed recommendations written in plain English. Now there will be no need to spend hours researching what each service does.

Another welcome change is that Auslogics’ Disk Defrag, believed to be the fastest defragmenter on the market, can now be run from console with command line parameters, can defragment single file or folder, and can be scheduled to run unattended.

Everybody knows what hacker attacks are and that they can cause a lot of harm. So, naturally, the best thing is to avoid being attacked, know how to detect an attack right away and act immediately. Unfortunately, hacker attacks can be pretty hard to detect, especially if you are a novice user. Here are a few tips to help you:

1. Suspiciously high outgoing traffic for dial-up and ADSL is the first thing that should attract your attention, especially if you’re not uploading anything at the time. So, if you notice that your outgoing traffic is all of a sudden unusually high, it could mean that your computer has been compromised and used either to send spam or viruses to all your contacts.  Cable users, don’t fret – with cable it is quite normal to have the same amount of outgoing and incoming traffic.

Sydney, Australia – September 4, 2008 – Auslogics says it will fully support the new web browser Google Chrome poised to become a powerful Internet Explorer rival.

The users of Auslogics BoostSpeed may be the first to experience the full Google Chrome support. This computer performance optimization software will protect the privacy of Google Chrome users, as well as optimize the new browser speed, all by the end of September 2008.

According to Google, the new browser can add value for users while driving innovation on the web.  However, many believe that this is the company’s next step towards dominating the Internet and that it will place Google directly against Microsoft.

Auslogics believes that web applications have long outgrown browser technology, which has stood still for quite a few years. The company says that it will provide full browser support and help make Google Chrome run as fast as possible.
