Webbrowser often failed to access some sites this weekend, but for some sites it is quit fast – download speed is about 200MB/s. Access to google is fine, but Eclipse.org and sf.net mirros are terrible.

Windows Live Beta setup is so stupid that it failed to upgrade if proxy type is set as “pac” file, although Windows Live Messenger Beta is able to detect an update exists. It also hang at 79% when 7z.exe is busing doing decompressing, when CPU is about 10% busy.

Firefox has the issue of opening url on incorrect tab. When I am focusing on an empty tab, and navigate to some url from the address bar. Google Chrome lacks of addons, but the usability is still better than firefox due to open url in new tab not working problem.

On native Vista 32 system, virtual PC 2007 refused to install Vista 64, reported error message "this CPU does not support ...", but the cpu actually supports x64 and can install a physical copy of Vista 64 system.

I always encounter error during Windows Update process -- Click "Custom Install", wait a while, and got error. This happened a few times for days. Today I updated to IE7 and it seems to be able to work now.

Dec 17: When I try to update behind a proxy, it failed again:(
