Irfanview is my favourite photo viewer

Irfanview is always my favorite photo viewer. Why? Because it is fast and very light weight. While some photo viewer software claim that they can view so and so format, I don't like most of them trying to take over my Windows settings and boy I hate that. Also you need to pay a fee to use some of them legally.
With less than 10Meg (including additional plug-ins), I can view 99% of the photos and video and flash video using Irfanview. And I always like to see the EXIF data of photo that I view. With just typing "e" while viewing photo with Irfanview, I can see the EXIF instantly!

I am too lazy to print screen, so just go ahead to the Irfanview website to download the latest version 4.3 and install it. Remember to download and install the plug-ins as well.

If you like portable version, download from PortableApps.com.

Malaysian Government websites are down

Cyber Attack of Malaysian Government websites that happen on early morning on June 16 2011 causing a few Malaysia Government websites are down at the moment.


Fellow Malaysian, what do you think of this attack?
Fellow non-Malaysian, what do you think?

I am not pro or con for this issue, but I think these hackers should make use of their skill into good use, instead of bring down websites. What if someone is waiting for some help (like donation or organ transplant) but with the server down, the information is gone and they are the one being punish.
You should hack the personal website or blog or facebook fan page or twitter of those politician that you want target, please don't involve civilian.
