Dear Belkasoft user,

This is a Belkasoft newsletter and you have received it because you left your email on our site at http://belkasoft.com. Below is some news from and about our company.

In this letter:

• New version of Belkasoft Forensic Studio
• New version of Belkasoft Forensic IM Analyzer and Belkasoft Skype Analyzer
• New products: Belkasoft ICQ Analyzer and Belkasoft QQ Analyzer
• How to upgrade
• How to register

New version of Belkasoft Forensic Studio
Many of you asked us to consolidate our products into single one to ease their usage. This is how Forensic Studio appeared. At the start this bundle was just a set of products sharing the same look and feel but which you had to download, install and purchase separately. Now this is single product so downloading, installation and registration can be done much easier. As before, Forensic Studio contains two tools, instant messengers analyzer and browsers analyzer. Both are updated and these updates are included into the new Forensic Studio version. Please see below for details of what was updated in IM Analyzer (regaring Browser Analyzer product there is nothing special, only minor enhancements).

Please note that licensing of forensic products is a bit different as for other Belkasoft products. Corporate users (those who work in private companies, government organizations or agencies) should register and use corporate license. Individual users are allowed to obtain personal license.

New build of Belkasoft Forensic IM Analyzer
We released new version of Belkasoft Forensic IM Analyzer. Version number remain unchanged (1.02) but starting build 36 it contains some major improvements which are worth mentioning. Latest builds include:

• Support for QQ messenger. QQ is the most popular messenger in China and its history is very hard to decrypt manually. This is why the tool with QQ support is very important in your inventory.
• Old Skype chats now supported. Our thanks to Holger Morgenstern (http://www.gutachten.info) who helped us a lot with older Skype version!
• New Skype enhancements. The history extraction is more robust now so even if Skype history file is corrupted, the tool tries to do its best to capture whatever it can.

New version is available at http://belkasoft.com/bfie/en/home.asp#bfia.

New versions of Belkasoft Skype Analyzer
This product has the same enhancements as Forensic one, but only relevant to Skype history, that is support for old Skype chats extraction and new Skype history extraction enhancements.

New version is available at http://belkasoft.com/bihe/en/home.asp.

Belkasoft ICQ Analyzer and Belkasoft QQ Analyzer
Our 'extractors' product family is still very popular within non-forensic users because these products are inexpensive but are robust and handy. However, they are no more being expanded, only supported. That's why many of you keep sending us requests to add ICQ 6 support to our popular but older tool ICQ History Extractor. To answer your requests we released new product called Belkasoft ICQ Analyzer. As the name suggests, this is not old-fashioned 'extractor' product but rather new 'analyzer' one. However, it is not as expensive as Forensic Analyzer and it supports all ICQ versions starting the oldest 98a to ICQ 6.

The same story is with QQ history. Those of our users who are not from the forensic field, will benefit from the new tool which only supports QQ and costs less than forensic version.

The products are available at http://belkasoft.com/bihe/en/home.asp.
