The SmartSwipe Online Security, Shopping and Technology Blog

I have some exciting news - NetSecure Technologies has a booth at RSA 2010 in San Francisco. So, if you are in San Francisco and plan on attending RSA, drop by booth 236 and say hello to our crew there.

To celebrate RSA, we launched http://www.dynamic-ssl.com. Most of the content on this new site is already on smartswipe.ca, but it is nice having our own place online.

I have some great news from world swipe quarters - SmartSwipe version 1.7.3 is now available for download! This version is a major step forward in the history of SmartSwipe and we encourage all of our users to upgrade. To upgrade, you can either use the pop-up that appears in your version of Internet Explorer, or you can go to our downloads page to download the full version.

Happy holidays!

From all of us here on the SmartSwipe team, have a safe and happy holiday season!

We have been getting a lot of emails lately asking about whether SmartSwipe will work on the new Windows 7 OS. The answer is yes! SmartSwipe works very well on Windows 7. If you experience any problems our Support Team will get you taken care of...support@smartswipe.ca

Bridget Carey from the Miami Herald recently reviewed SmartSwipe. This is one of the funniest tech reviews I have ever seen...

I'm not all that familiar with the Miami Herald. Is this par for the course? If so, I'll be a regular visitor to their site!

It has been an exciting couple of days in the swipe cave. Yesterday, we finally released our long awaited version 1.6.10. 1.6.10 is a large step up - not only is it noticeably faster than previous versions, it also has some improved error messages.

If you are interested, you can download this latest version at 1.6.10. And, as always, if you have any questions or concerns, we encourage you to contact us.

Our President just told me about this and I was so excited that I thought I should blog about it. Please feel free to pass this article around to all your friends and family.
