As English speakers, we don’t usually have any problems with understanding movies and TV shows in their native language as a great percentage of them is produced in our mother tongue. However there are quite a large number of movies in other languages for which we may need SubDowbloader’s help.
This program enables you to search the Internet for subtitle files for any video files you have in your computer. This means it can work the same with movies and series. The search procedure is a bit strange, as you have to select the actual video file you’re searching subtitles for - instead of entering the video’s title which makes more sense to me.
On the upside, the program lets you search subtitles for several files simultaneously, making the task a lot easier when you need subtitles for a complete season of your favorite TV show. You can also upload your own subtitle files, which keeps the program’s database in constant growth thanks to its users.
If you ever need subtitles for your movies or TV shows then give SubDownloader a go: it may be the faster, easier way to find them.

PC Magazine - Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer characterized Windows 7 as an improved version of Windows Vista this week, prompting the question of why consumers and businesses should adopt Microsoft’s current operating system.
You could pretty much consider FileZilla an open source success story. It’s popular, works well and fast, and regularly updated.
If you’re looking for a solid FTP client what more could you ask more? In fact, FileZilla is not just limited to FTP, but also handles FTPS and SFTP for secure transfers of multiple files on multiple servers. The interface gives you a quick outlook of all your transfers, sites and disks and makes it easy to drag and transfer. I also quite like the QuickConnect feature to access your favorite server in seconds.
FileZilla is known to be fairly fast, and can also resume downloads and handle very big transfers, I’m talking here higher than 4 GB. You can set both local and remote filters for things like images, explorer files or CVS and SVN directories or even create your own. FileZilla also includes a tool to compare directories in terms of file size or modification time.
The application can guide you when setting up your network and lets you set speed limits in case you don’t want to overload your bandwidth.
One thing really missing from FileZilla though is a scheduler to automatically set transfer times.
Despite lacking a scheduler, FileZilla is an excellent open source FTP client. It’s stable, fast and very efficient. Highly recommended.

NewsFactor - At the Tokyo Game Show this week, one of the primary goals of entertainment companies is to show off the latest alternate realities for game players to lose themselves in. Such escapism is understandable, given the sickly state of the real world’s financial institutions. But lurking in the shadows like a Ninja is the question of whether gamers will be able to afford new hardware and software during the upcoming holiday season.
