So here we sit at the end of the year. We just wrapped up the 2007 CyberNet Awards series that we had been doing for the last few weeks, and tomorrow we have a fun filled day planned. We are going to recap the major events that have happened over the last year, and I think you'll be pretty surprised at how much of the stuff seems like it happened yesterday.

The 2007 CyberNet Awards is wrapping things up by highlighting what we believe to be the Most Productive Apps of 2007. One of our favorite things to write about are programs that can help increase productivity, and it's only fitting to close with this award. A big thanks to all the developers of the following programs, because without them I don't know how I would get anything done!

I wish I could say that I'm surprised, but AOL has decided to kick the can on further Netscape Navigator developments. The Netscape team will publish security updates for one more month (until February 1, 2008), and after that Netscape Navigator will just be a memory. Here's what the Netscape blog had to say:

There has been a lot of buzz around the next iPhone firmware upgrade that is expected to be released as early as this week. At first there was some speculation that this is just a hoax, but if that was the case there has been way too much work put into it. A video has been provided, which we've embedded below, that demonstrates the various new features.

We've been contacted by a few of our readers today letting us know that our website is being identified as containing a JS/SNZ.A virus. Don't worry, we haven't been infected with a virus.

For those of you (in the U.S.) who've been holding off on making the upgrade to Vista there's never been a better time than right now. Vista SP1 is scheduled for release in the early part of 2008, and now there is an exceptional deal on the Vista Home Premium Upgrade over at Best Buy.

If you've missed out on one of our other security software deals, then this is one you may want to take advantage of. I'll forewarn you that this does require a mail in rebate, but in the end you can actually make money from it! Oh yeah, and you must purchase this today if you want to cash in on the rebate.

Welcome to Daily Downloads brought to you by CyberNet! Each weekday we bring you the Windows software updates for widely used programs, and it's safe to assume that all the software we list is freeware (we'll try to note the paid-only programs).

When Vista came out, certain new features were talked about more than others, like Flip3D or the indexed search capabilities. One feature that wasn't really mentioned is the Vista Reliability and Performance Monitor. You may not have known that you have it, but you do.

One thing that I've always enjoyed with Google's test site, SearchMash, was the powerful sidebar that it included. It gives users quick access to videos, images, Wikipedia, blogs, and more. Determined to find a way to get similar features on the Google search page I decided to turn to Greasemonkey.

One of the most frustrating things I experience because I have my laptop connected to a second monitor is that when I disconnect it, my windows don't always come back to the laptop monitor. I can see all of my applications in the taskbar, but when I click on some of them, they won't appear.

Sitting at the top of my life's to-do list is "travel as much as possible." Many people love to travel, and would love to do it often to see and explore places around the Globe. For most of us though, it'll be nearly impossible to get to every place we'd like to go.

Yesterday we took a look at what we consider to be the Most Innovative Services available on the web, and today we've got our sights set on products. After some careful deliberation we managed to come up with three amazing products that could drastically change the way we use technology in the future.

Have you ever seen a really cool font on a sign, product, or website and you wanted to use it for something? If you have then you need to go visit TypeNow which has a selection of over 300 fonts all available for free. Each one is designed to replicate fonts for popular movies, bands, games, television shows, and more.

Time to count up all of your remotes! Today we're asking how many remote controls you have in single room. For example, in our living room we have five remotes sitting on the table. It would make more sense to use one universal remote, wouldn't it? Yet I haven't come across one that I like enough to use.

There is a bug in WordPress right now that is rather critical for anyone who uploads posts without immediately publishing. Simply by manipulating the URL any visitor can view all future, draft, or pending posts. Our site vulnerable to this issue, but we patched it quickly because it could be used to retrieve the CyberNotes posts that we write ahead of time.

EverNote (review) is one of our favorite freeware apps, and some of you might be enjoying the full $50 version from the last time it was given away. Now Giveaway of the Day has EverNote Portable available for free for today only!

Here's yet another opportunity to get more free software! For a limited time, you can get your hands on a copy of Webroot Spy Sweeper which will be good for a year. It's a $29.95 value and will keep you protected from Spyware. It's their latest version, 5.5, which PC Magazine has said is "easily the best choice for protecting PCs from spyware and for cleaning infected machines."
