For malware, per se I would suggest using: Threat Fire -> freeware

I would suggest the following: 1) Ask the candidate to solve the problems that you have faced. 2) Ask them to code so you have an idea as to whether the person can code. Also, you can identify failures in the code. 3) Check for skills which match your needs This should give a rough idea as to whether the candidate is suitable. HTH

The comment should alway be either above or to the right of the code.

This is my 6th job and I have 10 years of experience in the IT industry

Thanks for the info. Will download it today.

I prefer to use Visio, though in cases where the same is not available I use MS Word!!! :-D

I need min 3 cups of coffee and a bottle of coke, to get through the day!!! :-D

Would you be willing to try your luck with the Apple iPhone or BlackBerry??

I would vote for Bugzilla. It can be accessed via the web, so both customers and you can keep track of the reported issues. You do have an option of getting emails when new issues are logged in. However, you need to manually create the reports!!!

You have the following choices: 1) Ignore it and get frustrated watching others grow 2) Leave the company and go to a place where there is less of this!!! 3) Join in :-D

B) write all new routines in company spec format thus showing two different formats in the same code and thoroughly pissing off the original author but letting management deal with the solution.

Hi, Please find my answers inline. When reading up on a new technology, how much do you rely on books for information (note that new here means new for you; the technology can be at any stage, from alpha to released)? My rating is 4 If you read books: 1. Would you read a book based on a Beta of the technology? No 2. Would you read a book based on a Beta of the technology, if the technology has been released? No 3. Would you read a book based on a previous version of the technology? Yes 4. Do you prefer any particular Author? If yes, which? No 5. Do you prefer any particular Series? If yes, which? No 6. Do you prefer any particular Publisher? If yes, which? No Regards, Kiran

Hmmm, considering the number of people in India, who are in to Software, I guess this is expected.

Hmm this sounds like a better way of doing it!!!

Hi, I would suggest using a static analyzer tool in case code reviews is not acceptable. Regards, Kiran

Interesting idea. I will try with my IT dept and hope for the best!!! I am hoping there will be someone nice like you there!!

Thanks for providing this. I was looking for a tool like that.

Hmmm you are the first person I know of who does that!!! Guess we should start following your footsteps and get a cleaner/faster system.

Thanks for sharing this information. Will surely keep checking this page for updates. Keep the information coming!!! :rolleyes:

I didnt feel it was worth spending money on Vista Ultimate and hence had my Dell PC pre-installed with Vista Home Premium (Still havent used the Media Center to view live TV though!!). How are the features in Vista Ultimate??
