after go to security tab .
in security tab.the first options says.
Secure Browsing: Enable it.
when You use secure browsing.Your
Default Connection Sets To Https Insted of
Http.
Http Stands For Hyper Text Transfer
Protocal. When We use Http Our Browser
And Server Create Communication In
Normal Language. But On the Other Hand
Https stands For Hyper Text Transer
Protocal Secure, When We Use Https
Browser and Server Talks In encrypted
Language. So Chances Of Man In The
Middle Attack Gets Reduced. In ' MITM ' a
Third Person or Brodly Says Hacker Can
Listen The Communication Between
Browser And Server.
Now Come To second Point,Again Go
To account settings then after go to

Sites Like ziddu Or Mediafire.

What to do if your phone gets wet

What to do if your phone gets wet:

Never ever try to switch it on as it may cause short-circuiting in the phone and may lead to a bigger loss. Immediately remove your phone's battery and then use a towel to dry the physical parts of the smartphone and once you are through it, bury your phone and the battery in a bowl full of rice. This will cause the rice to absorb all the water and moisture from the device. One of the best things you can do is to place the wet smartphone on the back of your PC monitor or TV screen over the heat vents. The conventional heat waves coming out of these devices are just perfect to dry and fix your phone  Else, you can place the smartphone in front of the air conditioner as well. Since the cold air coming from the AC is dry, it will dry up your phone quicker than you may expect.

How to Copy the Command Output to Windows Clipboard

Like it or not, the command
prompt is still an indispensable
part of your Windows computer
because there are still a bunch of
things that can only be done by
writing commands.
For instance, if the computer isn’t
connecting to the Internet, you will probably be interested in the
output of the “ping” or the “tracert” command. If you need to print the contents of a directory in
Windows, the command “dir” will come to your rescue. Copy command line output to Windows Clipboard.
Now here’s a little trick. If you add the pipe *operator (|) to your
command followed by the “clip” command, the output of your original command will get saved to the Windows clipboard and won’t print inside the Command Prompt window.
Here are some examples:
°dir | clip Copy the content of a folder to the clipboard.
°tree | clip Display the recursive directory structure and save it to the clipboard.
°type error.log | clip Place the
content of the file error.log to the clipboard.
°sort file.txt | clip Sort the file and save the sorted output to the clipbord.
°ipconfig /all | clip Get details of your network connection for sending to tech support.
The “clip” command may not be
available on Windows XP but in
that case, you can use the redirect
operators, like > and >>, for saving
the command output to a text file.
Alternatively, right-click anywhere
inside the command window, select Mark from the contextual menu, use the mouse to highlight a block text and then press Enter to save it to the clipboard.
[*] The pipe operator (|) takes the
output of one command and directs it into the input of another command which in our case is clip.

After copy all the contents of
windows 7 into the pen drive just
reboot your computer. And make sure it will set to boot from a Flash Drive.That’s all you should now install your windows from a Pen Drive. Just choose usb drive as first boot drive in BOIS If you like this article

Adobe Gets Hacked; Hackers Steal 2.9 million Adobe Customers accounts

Hackers broke into Adobe Systems’ internal network on Thursday, stealing personal information on 2.9 million customers and the source code for several of Adobe’s most popular products. This an absolutely massive blow to Adobe, especially their reputation. Adobe, which makes Photoshop and other programs, revealed that cyber attackers had access user information, including account IDs and encrypted passwords as well as credit and debit card numbers. The company did not specify which users of its various software programs were hit. But Products compromised in this attack include Adobe Acrobat, ColdFusion, and ColdFusion Builder.
"We believe these attacks may be related. We are working diligentlyinternally, as well as with external partners and law enforcement, to address the incident. " the company said in a
customer security alert. Adobe's Arkin says the company is not aware of zero-day exploits or other specific threats to its customers due to the source code theft. Adobe is resetting the
passwords on breached Adobe customer IDs, and users will receive an email if they are
affected. "We have notified the banks processing customer payments for Adobe, so that they can work with the payment card companies and card-issuing banks to help protect customers’ accounts. " If you’ve given your Credit card details to Adobe through their site, it’s now a good idea to keep an eye on your transactions. Adobe has also promised to offer these customers with the option of enrolling in a one-year complimentary credit monitoring membership where available.
In November, 2012 - An Egyptian Hacker named ViruS_HimA also hacked into Adobe servers and leaked private data of 150,000 emails and hashed passwords of Adobe employees and customers/partner of the firm such as the US Military, USAF, Google, NASA DHL and many other companies.

How to protect the eyes when using a computer

" How to protect the eyes when using a computer "

When using a computer for prolonged periods of time, whether for work or pleasure, it's important to protect your eyes from long-term damage.
There are a number of things you can do to help protect your eyes. Some of those ways are:
1- Clean your computer screen
periodically to remove any dust, dirt or fingerprints. This can make it easier on your eyes, so they are not having to focus harder to see what is on the screen, especially if there is text to read.
2- Keep the monitor about 20 to 30 inches away from your face. This range has been found to be the best distance for proper viewing and for reducing eyestrain.
3- Use fonts and icon sizes that are
easy for you to view and read. Avoid using small fonts and icon sizes as it can cause eye strain.
4- Adjust the height of the monitor so that the top of the monitor is just below your eye level so that you are looking down slightly when viewing the screen.
5- Make sure there is proper lighting in the room. Overly dim lighting or overly bright
Lighting can cause strain to your
eyes.
6- Use an anti-glare filter on your
monitor, to help prevent glare and
reflection from lights in the room.
7- Use a document holder for placing documents that you look at regularly, and Place it at the same distance as the monitor.
8- One of the most important things you can do to protect your eyes is to take regular breaks. Taking several minutes to get up and not look at the monitor can greatly help in protecting your eyes and reducing any strain.
9- Another recommendation is to use an LCD monitor aka flat panel
display. The older CRT monitors are harder on the eyes, due to the lower refresh rates and general design of the monitor. LCD monitors feature higher refresh rates, high enough
that most people are unable to see the refreshing of the screen. LCD monitors in general are easier to view for longer periods of time and cause less strain on the eyes.

introduction to Cloud computing

CLOUD COMPUTING

Cloud computing is the technology of computing which is totally based on the internet media. With the help of this ethnology many servers can offer
softwao.re applications and resources and information to the computer and devices attached on
request with the control of electricity grid. It can be called as the service architectures or virtualization for improving the utility of the computational
techniques. Whole system is service oriented and customer focused. Complete detail is taken from the customer and delivers the service according to the need. The main idea of cloud computing is based on the cloud that is specifically designed for the
processing each related device is
present in this cloud of network. Could computing remains invisible
to the customers’ .They only have to pay for their resource that they use in cloud computing services.

How cloud computing works :-
Cloud computing involves the
multiple cloud components that communicate with each other wit
the help of application interfaces
mostly web services. UNIX operating system follows the same
theoretical techniques for its tasks.
The task complexity is divided into all the components making
balanced and manageable results.
The two most important components of the back end and front end .the front end is the interfaces or the main screen that is visible to the customers and users through which they interact with the system. This interface can be browsed with the help of web browsers and all the applications can be used with
this interface. Usually this interface is GUI based. The back end involves all the components and the complete architecture and
programming technique of cloud computing that is totally remains hidden from the users. Only system known what is going one at
the back of very user request. The
back end device involves, cloud server, Assistant computers, Data
storage media and many connectors. Historical background
The very first concept for the cloud computing was given by the John McCathy in 1960s.he first gave the statement for the future use of computational techniques as a public utility. With the arrival of the Virtual private networks this concept which was modernized in 1966 take implementation shape .in year 2007 the most famous organization such as Google ,IBM and may universities world wide started research program on cloud computing and finally in
2008 the first cloud computing
system was introduced.


Advantages of the cloud computing :-
1)Agile functionalities :- Cloud
computing enables user to frequently use the technological resource at inexpensive price.
2)Application interface fro users :-
Another great feature plus advantage of cloud computing system is the accessible and reliable interface for its users API
technology make it more interesting for the users to interact with the human beings.
3)Cost effective :- This computing
techniques greatly reduce the total cost and capital expenses that come sin arranging the
infrastructure .integrated resources are available at almost no cost to the third party users.
4)Geographical independence of
system and devices :- The most exciting feature of the cloud
computing is its total geographical
independence. Its users can access the system from the web browsers any where in the world at any time.
5)Multi and large application pool :-Large application pool is available for the users.
6)Reliability :- improved design
versions of many redundant website have efficiently increase the performance and suitability of cloud computing more useful.
7)Security :- Security is at the one
level above as compared to the other networks because of the
centralization of data and increased security feature of very individual component.
8)Maintenance :- Cloud computing
systems are flexible and easy to maintain because components
can be added and deleted from the infrastructure

Partition a Drive Without Losing Data

Wishes to partition your hard drives? But, partitioning a drive in windows will needed us to format the drive. In this tutorial, I will teach you how to partition a drive without need to backup your data and format your drives. You might wonder if this trick need you  to downloadsome softwares or tools. Do not worry because this trick is 100% download-free. We just gonna use a built in windows tool.

This trick had been tested on Windows7 and Vista. I'm not sure that this trick will work onwindows XP. This trick allows you to partition any drive including system drives.

Okay, first of all open Run dialog box ( Start > Run ). Type in "diskmgmt.msc" without the quotes in the text box. Wait until Disk Management window pop up. It may take a few seconds to load. After it’s fully loaded, go to Storage > Disk management at the left sidebar. Now you could see a list of storage devices that are currently connected to your computer. Now choosethe drive that you want to partition. Right Click on it and select "Shrink Volume" option from menu.


The system will search for available space in your selected disk volume. A window will pop up asking you to wait while it loads. This will not take much longer than few seconds. Next the Shrink dialog box will pop-up. This is where you’ll have to specify the volume for next partition. Look at the total size of available shrink space. Below it, you’ll have to enter the space to shrink.


To make sure that you not losing any data, shrink size is not below the total size of space taken by files in that drive. You can check the used space by right clicking on the drive you are going to partition and choose "Properties" from the menu.


After done shrinking your drive. You can see an unallocated space in your shrunk drive. But you’ll still not able to access this new drive. You’ll have to format it and specify the drive letter to access them. Right click on unallocated drive and choose "New Simple Volume" option.


New Simple Volume Wizard Window will pop up. Click on "Next" button to continue. In next window, you’ll have to specify the size for your new volume. Set full size if you are satisfied with two partitions or you can divide it again for new partition. Next, choose any drive letter from the available list and click on "Next" button. In next window, leave everything as default but make sure it's similar to the screen below ( If you want to change the volume label, feel free to do it ).


Click on Finish window to complete the wizard. Go to My Computer and you can see your new drive. That is all. Hope this tutorial will help you. Enjoy.

Rename start button in xp

To rename the start button, you will need a hex editor.
My preference is UltraEdit

Copy the \windows\explore.exe file to a new name (e.g. explorer_1.exe)
With the hex editor, open that file and go to offset 412b6
You will see the word start with blanks between each letter
Edit it be any 5 characters or less
Save the file
Boot to DOS
Copy the existing c:\windows\explorer.exe to explorer.org
Copy explorer_1.exe to explorer.exe
You will also need to replace the explorer.exe in the c:\windows\system32\dllcache file as well with the new one.
Note: If the partition is NTFS and you can't access the files from DOS:

Start Regedit
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ Winlogon.
Change the value of Shell from Explorer.exe to explorer_1.exe

5 important computer tricks

5 important computer tricks

Don't just maximize your windows—go full screen

When you need a really big window, don't just maximize it: go full screen! To view a window full screen, hold down the Ctrl key and double-click the window's title bar—or when the window is active, press the F11 key at the top of your keyboard—to get the biggest window possible.

Add the Links toolbar to My Computer

You know what would make a great toolbar? One where you could put your favorite applications and documents so that you could open them from any window at any time. Guess what? You can and here's how: click Start, then My Computer. Now right-click the toolbar and then click Links. You now have the Links toolbar on your windows, just like in Internet Explorer. Note: Make sure that Lock the Toolbars is not checked. Click on it to deselect it if it is.The really cool thing about the Links toolbar is that it's completely customizable. Try this: Navigate to your favorite application and drag and drop its icon to the Links toolbar. You just created a shortcut. Do this again and again for as many applications as you want to appear on the toolbar.

Arrange windows on your desktop

You can display any two windows side by side on the desktop by first clicking a window's button on the Taskbar. Next, press and hold the Ctrl key and right-click the second window that you want to open, then click Tile Vertically. This works great when you want to view two Microsoft Word or Microsoft Internet Explorer windows at the same time.

Organize your files into groups

Organize your files by grouping them. Try this: Open a folder containing several different subfolders and file types. Right-click any empty space on the window's contents pane, click Arrange Icons By, and then click Show in Groups. To arrange the window's contents, right-click again in any empty space on the window's contents pane, point to Arrange Icons By, and click Name, Size, Type, or Modified.

Make your own icons

It's shockingly easy to create your own icons in Windows XP. Let's do it: Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, and then click Paint. On the Image menu, click Attributes. Type 32 for both the Width and Height of the document, and make sure that Pixels is selected under Units. Click OK to create a new 32x32-pixel document: the size of an icon.Now add type, color, or do whatever you'd like to your image. I like to shrink photos (headshots work best) to 32x32 and simply paste them into my Paint document. When you're finished, open the File menu and click Save As. Use the dialog box to choose where you want to save your file, then give it a name followed by ".ico" (without the quotes), and click Save. (The extension ".ico" tells Windows that it's an icon file.) You just created an icon! Now you can change any shortcut or folder to your own icon—just browse to it on your hard drive.These tips are from the book, Windows XP Killer Tips by Kleber Stephenson, ISBN 073571357X.

For example if your friend is using your computer and you went somewhere ( and you have still some unsaved document left) and he shutdowns the pc without saving them…you loose a good amount of data. ( Trust me I have lost one whole blog post and project code at same time ). This is what you can doRestrict PC Shutdown* Type gpedit.msc in run dialog box [ WIN KEY + R ]* This will open Group Policy Editor. Now there are two things in it, Computer Configuration and User Configuration* Click on User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Start Menu and Task Bar* Now look for “remove and prevent access to shutdown command”* Double Click and Enable it.* Exit the group policy editor.This setting removes the Shut Down option from the Start menu and disables the Shut Down button on the Windows Security dialog box, which appears when you press CTRL+ALT+DEL. This setting prevents users from using the Windows user interface to shut down the system.Now if you try to shutdown by clicking on start , the shutdown button must have disappeared. Moreover check the task manager and you will find all shutdown,restart and others disabled except switch user.

screenshotscreen.....

Screen Shot….Hold down the control key and look in the upper right side above your letter keys for “Print Screen SysRq” or “Prnt Scrn” or something to that effect and hit it.Next, open a new file in “Paint” (Probably Start/Programs/Accessories/Paint).Next under Edit, select Paste.Next, under File, select “save as” give it a name, and be to sure choose JPEG where it says Save as Type.You can now make screenshots of whatever you wish. This is cool.To get the large size of Screen press F11 & then repeat above procedure again……

safe mode in boot list

Safe mode is required when you have to fix a problem such as virus infection or uninstalling drivers in your windows XP. generally we need to use F8 Key to get into safe mode and if not timed properly you will need to restart windows xp again. Here is a small trick which lets you add Safe mode by default into your Boot list. You will see it when you restart your windows xp machine.Steps to Add Safe Mode in Boot list* Go to control panel > System.* Click on Advanced Tab.* Then click on settings under the startup and recovery action.* Click on edit under system startup to indirectly edit your boot.ini file.* Add the following entry “multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS=”XP - Safe Mode” /fastdetect /safeboot:minimal /sos /bootlog” without quotes .Add safe mode to your boot listThats it, restart your machine and you will see another label as “XP- Safe Mode” added to the list.PS: This option is also used for adding any other windows installation on other partition.

some tricks

This is a complimation of computer tricks, mainly security and privacy related.

Getting Ip’s:–

To see the ip all computers you are connected to (web servers, people attempting to **** into your computer).Go to dos (start>run>type command) and run the netstat command. Type netstat /? for details.

Type netstat -r at the command prompt to see the ip of all computers you are connected to

In MSN (and other programs) when you are chatting to someone everything you type goes through the MSN servers first (they act as a proxy) so you see their ip rather than who you are chatting to. You can get round this by sending them a file as MSN doesn’t send file through its proxy.When you type the netstat -r (or -a for a different view) the ip’s are under the foreign address table. The ports are seperated by a : . Different programs use different ports, so you can work out which ip’s are from which program.

Connecting to other computers and what ports are:–

Servers send information. Clients retrieve. Simple.Windows comes with a built in program to connect to other computers called telnet.To start Windows telnet Start menu> Run> type Telnet. Click connect> remote systemPorts are doors into computers. Hosts are computer names(ip number or a name that is translated into the ip automatically)Different programs open different ports, but they always open the same ports so other computers know which port to connect to. You can get a port list listing all the different ports, but a basic one is:11 :- Sends info on the computer21 :- FTP (File transfer program)23 :- Telnet (Login to the computers command line)25 :- Smtp (Sends mail)80 :- Http (Web pages

)There are thousands of different programs using different ports. You can get programs called portscanners which check a computer for all ports up to a certain number, looking for ways in. You can portscan a computer looking for ways-in.Anyway, back to telnet.Type www.yahoo.com as the host and port as 80 the click connect.If nothing happens, you’re in. Wow. You are connected to Yahoo’s server.You can now type http commands (you are connected to an http server, so it supports http commands). Ie. on an ftp server you can type open and it will do something. On an http server it will just wonder what the hell you are on about.Type get / http/1.0 then press enter twice to get the file on the server at / (try /index.html) etc.)

Making undeletable, unreadable folders

Tested on Windows 95/98By holding down alt, then typing numbers on the number pad (right of the keyboard) you can create special characters. If you hold down alt, then press 1, then let go, you got the ascii character 1. You try some randomn numbers. This goes all the way up to 255. Open a dos prompt, and type md (alt+1+9+4)someword. md is the dos command to make a directoy, now try and open the directory in Windows, you can’t. To open it, type ren (alt+1+9+4)someword someword (ren is the dos command to rename)

Proxies

Proxies are computers that you connect through, hiding your computer. Most aren’t anonymous, they give away your ip. Some are. Good anonymous proxies: mail.uraltelecom.ru:8080 and 194.247.87.4:8080.Different programs require different ways of using proxies. To do it in internet explorer 5 go to tools, internet options, connections, settings. In the above proxies they are in the format host:port

Password files

If you lock yourself out of Windows stuff, all passwords are stored in files called *.pwl in C:windows.In Unix, passwords are normally stored at etc/passwd. This can be viewed using the cat command (prints a file to screen): cat etc/passwd. Make sure you’re passwords are shadowed (not actually in etc/passwd). Also make sure they aren’t in a file called shadow, especically not in a file called etc/shadow.Unix passwords are encrypted far better than Windows one’s (to be fair, Windows 95 isn’t designed for users), but can still be cracked through a program called jon.
