Chorme error!!

I recently found the solution for the error : "Application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005)" when you run Google Chrome after installation.

For Symantec EP users, Change the following registry entry and restart the machine.

In Regedit:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SysPlant

change  Value of Start REG_WORD to 4. Refresh / restart machine.

Chrome should work fine now.

OR Use Flock instead. :D

Who moved my chiron?

I am working with silverlight since WPF/E days and after the Silverlight 2 RTW release was wondering to my wonder tool Chiron.exe. A bit of searching took me to the blog which says:

Chiron is still available for you if you want it.  It is a part of the Silverlight Dynamic Languages SDK

which is available on Codeplex.  So if you need/want it, there you go. 
Some people were using Chiron for their automated build scenarios to
create the XAP package during the builds.  A lot of the packaging stuff
for XAPs is now a part of some of the MSBuild tasks, so you can still
automate your builds using MSBuild.

That explains the stuff; i presume. I am personally missing Chiron. Silverlight DLR, ironPython is something i love and like really, however, i do not have any great ideas where i can implemnet them. So most of times its just feel good POC on SL 2 DLR.

Bottonline: I will miss you, Chiron.

Installing Chrome on Vista

I was really upset as Chrome was not getting installed on my vista machine and was scratching my head. The error was

(If you get the error message “Send request returned 0×80042197. Http status code 407." , After a while, i figured that it may be because my proxy requires a password (ie authenticate).
I did a research on google and found below comment. (No pun intended from my end)

The Chrome installer is trying to download itself, but the geniuses (yes, really) at google forgot to put in a password input box. Until Google releases an updated installer, you can download the full Chrome installer here:

But my favorite remains FLOCK, Its the best!!!. I eveb blogged this using flock!!!
