Windows Vista Annoyances
David A. Karp is best known for writing books centered on making problems solveable to make the life of users easy and productive. There is no better timing than his recent books titled: Windows Vista Annoyances.

The book is described as follows:

Windows Vista may be the next big thing, but it still contains enough quirks and unaccountable behaviors to vex anyone. This unique guide not only discusses the most irritating features of the latest Microsoft operating system and how to get around them, but also explains how to improve Windows and do more with the software than Microsoft intended. You’ll find information on setup, installation, upgrade from other Windows versions, the revamped interface, new security features, user accounts, troubleshooting, and the markedly improved Internet Explorer 7. Other chapters cover a wide range of key topics:

Media Center – tips on photos, videos, music, TV tuners, HD, and the media center engine

The Registry – explains the background and tools for working with Windows’ database of settings

Tinkering Techniques – offers hacking-style customization and problem-solving topics

Networking and Wireless – includes LAN setup, WiFi sniffers and access points, connection sharing, firewalls, routers, and FTP

Scripting and Automation – introduces simple programming using the Windows Scripting Host for automating repetitive tasks
