My band needs some good recording software that records vocals,guitar,bass,drums,and we need like at least 8 tracks. We are a punk band so we need software that works with us in that genre.
Try Audacity – it’s free.

What is good software to protect against the new virus that records your keystrokes?
Thus it gets your credit card info and passwords… I forget the name of the virus. What software do you recommend?
There are many programs that do that, not just one virus. technically, it’s not even called a virus, it’s a keylogger.
To get keyloggers off your system, use regular antivirus scans: http://www.free-av.com/ (good and free) and spyware scans:
http://www.safer-networking.org/index2.h… and http://www.lavasoftusa.com/
But that alone is not enough. Imagine you unknowingly get a keylogger on your system on friday. You do some online banking etc.
Then on saturday you find and remove the keylogger with those programs above. It’s too late, the passwords have been recorded and sent back to the person who put the keylogger on your pc. To protect yourself from that scenario, use this program http://www.qfxsoftware.com/
Make sure to download the personal version, it is free. What it does is this: it encrypts all your keystrokes at kernel level, so even if there is a keylogger on your system, it will not be able to find out what you’ve typed. The logs will only contain mumbo-jumbo. I’ve tested it myself with a few different keyloggers and it works perfectly! That will protect you until you finally remove the keylogger with the programs I mentioned at the start.
I’m having trouble with Windows Movie Maker so I decided to replace it with a different software. However I don’t know where to begin to look. I need some suggestions and places to look for new movie making software.
I use Ulead VideoStudio
I am interested in what the benefits of open software model are to original software writers (not users). I more or less understand the concept from users standpoint (they can modify it, just like Linux, etc.) What I would like to know is what would a developer gain by releasing his software into community. He cannot charge for it anymore, even if he still holds IP rights like patents. Charging for support, not licenses? Quick market penetration? What else? Thanks.
Customers. He charges for maintenance, usually. Also Open Source programs are often tickets to big money jobs at companies like Google or, in the case of the Mach kernel writer (Mach kernel being the one that runs Mac OS X GNU Hurd and GNU Darwin) a job at Microsoft. Miguel de Icaza was actually hired by Microsoft, but US Immigration said "You can’t have him because he never went to college" so he co-wrote the GNOME desktop and now he works for Novell.
Open Source Software is a calling card. Red Hat is doing very well as an Open Source company so don’t knock it.
My aunt has a hair salon and I’m going to buy her a PC to make everything easier for her. I want to develop a nice looking software that will make making appointments and all of that stuff easier. I want to make this over the summer. I haven’t had much experience with developing software before. I’m not going to distribute this to the public, just personal use for my aunt. What programs do I use and can you guys give me some tips and tutorials on how to develop software?
I would use Alpha Five v9. It’s a fully relational database, not horribly expensive, and comes with samples that need little tweaking to cover a hair salon. There was an appointment module available to buy from other users, but I don’t know it is included in v9. (We still use v8 and don’t need appointments.)
The two best things – changing things just a bit is totally easy, and they have a message board full of incredibly generous users.
I am using dual boot system and i want to know the software for reading data on the windows partition from the linux partition…
I want to use linux but data are all in the windows partition…
Is there any software for reading the data ?
Linux can read the data on NTFS partitions or FAT partitions – you don’t need any special software.
I am wanting to purchase professional photo editing software that will help me highlight a certain object in the picture. Example: I want a black and white photo with only the blue eyes showing in color. What software should I buy and it this an easy task to accomplish?
In PhotoShop, you can select the blue eyes and then go to "Select" and inverse the selection. Now everything but the blue eyes will be selected. You then go under Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation and desaturate everything. That will turn everything to black and white except the eyes.
I’ll try one and link it here.
OK, there’s an example for you. There are other ways to achieve this result, but I this worked really fast. You can also change the color — make everything black and white but give him red eyes.
I am curious as to how software is actually designed and built in the real world, as in the domain of software engineering. I can understand the programming languages themselves, it just seems that I cannot understand how they can be made into a software system for use in an embedded device or on a PC. Is there any automation to the software design process? What tools are actually used to develop software?
I’ve also heard that code for a lot of different tasks is placed in libraries, and this code can be referenced when the code you are coding is being built and incorporated in the final product. How do you find which libraries and code that you need?
I also wanted to ask if the graphical user interface code is kept separate from the actual program code, and the GUI is an "interface" to the program. Can GUI libraries be used?
carefully
there are lots of programs that can be used see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programing
for a full list
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_programming
might be a good look at as well
oh and take a course in comupter programing to learn more
