According to their latest press release:</p> <blockquote><p>RegistryBooster is an automatic, powerful and comprehensive application for improving PC performance, stability and general health. Originally launched in 2006, the 2010 version of the software has been published, with some major improvements and additional features. </p> <p>The 2010 release is a major upgrade and includes the following improvements and developments:</p> <ul> <li>5 different language options – English, French, German, Italian, Spanish.</li> <li>Compliant with Microsoft Windows 7, Vista and XP</li> <li>32 and 64-bit compatibility</li> <li>Smaller and faster download /install. Smaller file size and improved server performance have improved download time.</li> <li>Enhanced, deeper and faster scan performance. New development of the scanning engine means that scans are more thorough and efficient than those performed by previous versions of the software.</li> <li>Improved, easier-to-use GUI. Based on the results of usability testing, the functionality within the GUI has been improved enabling users to understand the features better. Registry categories have been split into 3 major segments, with errors now being displayed by segment and category. This interface upgrade means that users can see, at-a-glance and with greater understanding, where any problems may lie.</li> <li>Quicker backup and restore procedure. Backups are now more compact, backing up only information required to revert to the previous state of the registry.</li> <li>New "Damaged Level" feature. This new feature indicates Uniblue's assessment of the potential damage caused by registry errors to a PC’s general stability and performance. Rated on a scale from "low" to "high", a low damage level indicates that a PC is healthy, while a high damage level shows that the computer is at serious risk of performance loss due to registry impairment.</li> </ul> <p>Johan Malmberg, Uniblue’s CVO is excited by the new version and added, "Since its launch in 2006, RegistryBooster has gone from strength to strength. We’re confident that the improvements in the 2010 version will give the PC user an even better experience with the much improved, simple-to-use interface, faster download, install and scanning times and a significantly upgraded backend. Windows 7, 32 and 64-bit compatibility combined with the availability of several language options, means that many more computer users globally can benefit from the utility“.</p></blockquote> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/major-update-dopdf-63307-released#post-989 Mon, 14 Sep 2009 11:11:28 +0000 Softland 989@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>doPDF 6.3 build 309 was released.<br /> What's changed in doPDF 6.3.309:</p> <ul> <li>Fix: Corrected some problems with the Danish language</li> <li>Fix: Corrected conversion for drawings containing Bezier curves</li> </ul> <p>You can download the new version here: <a href="http://www.dopdf.com/download.php">doPDF 6.3.309</a> </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/registry-booster-discount-and-other-uniblue-products-discounted#post-973 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 12:34:38 +0000 Softland 973@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>We've partnered with Uniblue (makers of RegistryBooster, SpeedUpMyPc, DriverScanner and DiskRescue) to offer a discount on their products for dopdf.com/forum users.
