Just saw this today.

Announcing SnagIt 7.2

New Firefox Extension for SnagIt
Browsing with Firefox these days? Perhaps both Firefox and Internet Explorer? Well, now SnagIt is built into both browsers, so the choice is yours.

10 January, 2005: SnagIt v7.2.1
Fixed Window Autoscroll error on certain hardware configurations.
Fixed Window Autoscroll problem in Firefox and Microsoft Word where scrolling would start at the current cursor location rather than the top of the page.
Fixed the Evaluation Message Center window so that it will now only appear with the SnagIt UI or the SnagIt Preview Window. Previously, it would appear when SnagIt launched, which is a problem if SnagIt starts minimized.

Note:
At the moment I have not installed it yet

 

Thanks Fanj for the additional info, as well as the links.
btw I installed it already ... Wow, what a change.
More user friendly.

 

Hi,

What I forgot to tell: some more good news

TechSmith replaced the file gdiplus.dll as they promised they would do in Januari; thanks TechSmith !

(well, maybe XP users already replaced it manually, but I on my W98SE box decided to wait).
I guess you might remember the issue a few months back about the GDI-vulnerability. There was a tool to check your system whether you have a vulnerable version; I forgot where I got it from...

Anyhow, in the latest SnagIt version it was indeed replaced.

Hi Jan,

Indeed, excellent news and thank you TechSmith.

Sure, I downloaded this tool here, which was posted by DCS.
Been looking for it, but can't find it anymore.
Maybe I'm not looking hard enough.

Thanks again.

 

You're welcome Eldar (graag gedaan ! ).

There were two different tools:

1.
The one from DCS: JPEGScan
Quote:
A Free Detection & Repair Scanner for
Exploit.MS04-028 (GDIPlus JPEG Vulnerability)
http://www.diamondcs.com.au/jpegscan/

2.
A tool called gdiscan.exe
but the download page for that....?


The MS Info page:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS04-028.mspx

 

OK , see for example here:

Cheers, Jan.

 

Fantastisch. As soon as I get home I'll bookmark these links, so I won't lose them again.
Many thanks for posting these Jan.
