After much frustration, it turned out that the problem is related to a little-known Internet Explorer registry entry called VerCache. (more)

Have you ever heard of Text to Speech engine? “Yes” I think. Yes, it is not a new thing in the Computer World. It was available since Windows 98 (as much as I can recall) but it is completely new in Silverlight. You can now use the Silverlight application to give an API call to the SAPI Engine which will convert the text to voice. Sounds Good? This is achievable using the COM APIs only. Here I will describe you how to use COM API to give a TTS call to the SAPI Engine. After reading this topic here, you ... (more)
