access blocked sites using Google
2007-06-04 19:39:00
Its a common thing that access to some sites is blocked in schools and colleges or offices. However Google is not blocked anywhere.So why dont you use Google to access blocked sites ? ( Using proxies to access blocked sites is another way , but here we use Google to access).The first and most common way of using Google to bypass blocked sites is just to search for the site and then clicked the "cached" link that appears on Google. Easy, simple, and frequently works for static information.Passing the site through google translator works well as well. Here's the URL to use:http://www.google.com/translate?langp air=en|en&u=www.blocked.com(where blocked.com is the site that you wish to visit)This translates the site from english to english and works because the ip address will appear as Google instead of you. You can actually do this with any pair of languages. Change en|en in the URL above to spanish by using es|es and it still works.Here is the link if you wish to access the netizen...

quickly search your Picasa images
2007-06-04 19:33:00
Using this undocumented feature in picasa, you can quickly browse and search through your Pica s a images. In Picasa (discovered in version 2.2.0 for Windows), type ctrl-shift-L. It will open your default browser to a page which lists your folders, with very small icons, and clickable links to the indiviudal folders, which then have links to individual photos.I'm not sure what it's good for, but it's there.

2007-06-04 07:18:00
There are two options for memory of the computer which help speed up the pc without installing physical memory :1. Physical Memory(RAM)2. Page File(A virtual memory file, stored on hard drive)But now, if you want to run windows vista, then its necessary for you to have atleat 512 MB RAM on your PC.

Open my computer2. Click on the removable disk drive and select properties3. Click on ReadyBoost Tab4.

make Windows XP GENUINE using notepad !
2007-06-03 09:04:00
This is a guide for persons who have an OEM version of Window s XP Professional that came with their PC, and don't have a copy of the CD, lost the CD or their serial Number has been compromised, and Microsoft Genuine Advantage website reports it as not genuine. This happens in many cases where generic PC manufacturers use volume licenses for the Windows XP version they install on the PC or use the same Installation on multiple PCs they sell to you.I am in no way sanctioning piracy of software.Also as the old disclaimer goes, this is strictly for educational purposes only and I am in no way responsible for how any individual or group uses this information. The process takes only about 5 minutes excluding download time for the software. 1. Download MGADiag.exe from Microsoft's website for the main purpose of testing after all the steps that your copy of Windows XP is genuine. 2. Download WGAPluginInstall.exe form Microsoft's web site 3. Make sure that after installation you ...

fun with Notepad
2007-06-03 08:49:00
Open Notepad Type the text "this app can break" (without quotes)Save the fileRe-open the file in Notepad. Notepad displays seemingly-random Chinese characters, or boxes if your default Notepad font doesn't support those characters.Tim Lesher explains why this happens(given below) - it's a Windows limitation.It's not an Easter egg (even though it seems like a funny one), and as it turns out, Notepad writes the file correctly. It's only when Notepad reads the file back in that it seems to lose its mind.But we can't even blame Notepad: it's a limitation of Windows itself, specifically the Windows function that Notepad uses to figure out if a text file is Unicode or not.You see, text files containing Unicode (more correctly, UTF-16-encoded Unicode) are supposed to start with a "Byte-Order Mark" (BOM), which is a two-byte flag that tells a reader how the following UTF-16 data is encoded. Given that these two bytes are exceedingly unlikely to occur at the beginning of an ASCII text f...

alternative to Real Player
2007-05-30 07:04:00
If you want to play the Real media-format video and audio , one generally opts for Real Player . But some users dont like the cumbersome Real Player software ....If you are also one among them then this post is meant for you ! Is there an alternative to Real Player ? ( of course you can opt for some Real Meadia Format codecs even ). Yes . Rather than putting up with the ads, messages, spyware, and other non-sense that comes along with RealPlayer, you can use the ultra-simple Real Alter native player (free) .The Real Alternative Media Player Classic allows you to play RealMedia content without the messy RealPlayer.Along the same lines, you can use the QuickTime Alternative player (free) instead of Apple's QuickTime Player.

play incomplete video downloads
2007-05-30 06:31:00
THE ANNOYANCE: I'm in the middle of downloading a video and I want to start playing it before the download is complete, but Windows Media Play er just gives me an error. what should i do to start playing it? THE FIX: For starters, Windows Media Player (WMP) won't play most kinds of videos while they're in use; in this case, while they're currently being saved by another program. (The exception is streaming videofiles with the .asf or .wmv extension.)To get around this limitation, make a copy of the file being downloaded and open it; open the folder containing the file and, using the right mouse button, drag the file to another part of the same folder. Release the mouse button and select Copy Here from the pop-up menu. You should be able to open this duplicate file with no problems. With some video formats (particularly .avi files), there's a catch: the index, essential information about the sequence of frames in the video, is located at the end of the file.An incompl...

faster start menu
2007-05-29 13:36:00
These tricks seem to be interesting which made me post in this blog ........Show Hidden Installed products in Add/Remove Programs XP hides some system software you might want to remove, such as Windows Messenger, but you can tickle it and make it disgorge everything. Using Notepad or Edit, edit the text file /windows/inf/sysoc.inf, search for the word ‘hide’ and remove it. You can then go to the Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel, select Add/Remove Windows Components and there will be your prey, exposed and vulnerable. Fast Start Menu The Start Menu can be leisurely when it decides to appear, but you can speed things along by changing the registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Desktop/MenuShowDelay from the default 400 milliseconds to something a little snappier.
