Really Cool Windows tweaks

So its a weekend and you are in no mood to read a review or to know about technology...Here is a post where you can tweak your windows operating system.Some of them are fun to do bt some are really cool!!!It would be better if u create a back up of your registry before trying these twaeks.

To Download open regedit software
click here

Backup / Restore the Registry

To Backup/Restore the Windows Registry:

1. If you are in MSDOS, at the C:\Windows prompt type
2. Attrib -s -r -h C:\Windows\System.dat (press Enter)
3. Attrib -s -r -h C:\Windows\User.dat (press Enter)

To make the backup copies type:

1. copy C:\Windows\System.dat C:\Windows\System.000 (press Enter)
2. copy C:\Windows\User.dat C:\Windows\user.000 (press Enter)

To Restore the Registry

1. copy C:\Windows\System.000 C:\Windows\System.dat (press Enter)
2. copy C:\Windows\User.000 C:\Windows\user.dat (press Enter)

 

  Lock Out Unwanted Users

Want to keep people from accessing Windows, even as the default user? If you do not have a domain do not attempt this.

1. Open RegEdit
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Logon
3. Create a dword value "MustBeValidated"
4. Set the value to 1
This forced logon can be bypassed in Safe Mode on Windows 9x

Disabling the Right-Click on the Start Button

Normally, when you right button click on the Start button, it allows you to open your programs folder, the Explorer and run Find.
In situations where you don't want to allow users to be able to do this in order to secure your computer.
1.Open RegEdit
2.Search for Desktop
3.This should bring you to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory
4.Expand this section
5.Under Shell is Find
6.Delete Find
7.Move down a little in the Registry to Folder
8.Expand this section and remove Explore and Open
Now when you right click on the Start button, nothing should happen.
You can delete only those items that you need.
Note: - On Microsoft keyboards, this also disables the Window-E (for Explorer) and Window-F
(for Find) keys.
See the section on Installation in the RESKIT to see how to do this automatically during an install.

Disabling My Computer

In areas where you are trying to restrict what users can do on the computer, it might be beneficial to disable the ability to click on My Computer and have access to the drives, control panel etc.
To disable this:
1.Open RegEdit
2.Search for 20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D
3.This should bring you to the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID section
4.Delete the entire section.
Now when you click on My Computer, nothing will happen.
You might want to export this section to a Registry file before deleting it just in case you want to enable it again. Or you can rename it to 20D0HideMyComputer4FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D. You can also hide all the Desktop Icons, see Change/Add restrictions.

 There are many more tweaks available, just try this out!!

TOP 10 ANDROID APPS

Top 10 android applications you have to have on your phone,not just information even the download link is given,enjoy!!!

Layar

In some ways, this is a vote for the potential of layar as much as the practical application. Walking around with your phone and seeing Wikipedia subjects, apartments for sale, and what Twitter users have raved about through your phone is a pretty neat thing, and potentially helpful when you're looking for things to do in a new city. But as Layar continues to add new layers, and as camera and mobile processing power continue to improve, Layar could become a lot more interesting than it already is. One thing worth mentioning is that if you don't like the 3-D camera view, or like the looks of yourself while using it, Layar can just show you points of interest on a Google-type map. Either way you use it, it's an intriguing look at what's happening just around the corner.

 Listen

Until the latest upgrade, we couldn't have really called Listen a king among podcast apps—it had a few irksome bugs, one of them being the loss of episodes and, sometimes, subscriptions. Now, however, Google's own app does a great job not only of finding audio content, but it exports your subscriptions to be managed in Google Reader, ensuring a full feed backup and easier retrieval of past episodes you want to head back and hear. If you need more fine-grained podcast control, try Acast, but Listen will work for most.

Samsung Galaxy Ace

So, u want to be a part of ANDROID bandwagon just like others..u don't have budget to buy galaxy s,motorola milestone or htc desire.At the same time just because u want to have ANDROID phone u don't want to compromise with quality by buying some micromax or videocon or spice.

    Even though u are spoilt with choices in economical android phones,it still leaves u desiring for more!!
    So the wait is over here comes the samsung galaxy ACE..!!!

 

Design and Display
  Yet another inclusion in the list of touchscreen mobiles of Samsung is, Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 which is a bar phone that weighs 113g with dimensions of 112.4mm x 59.9mm x 11.5mm. Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 has a 3.5 inches HVGA TFT capacitive touchscreen which has a display size of 320 x 480 pixels. Like the other Galaxy series mobiles Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 has a slim figure which easily fits into tight pockets.

Camera
  Samsung Galaxy Ace's camera features are much similar to that of Samsung Galaxy fit S5670. Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 comes with a 5.0 megapixel camera along with auto focus and LED flash lights. The user can switch over to single shot, continuous shot, panorama shot, smile shot modes while capturing the desired images. Moreover the camera features Geo-tagging, face and smile detection, Multi-touch zoom features.

Multimedia
  The video support ranges to QVGA@20fps / WVGA@30fps and the handset supports MP4, H.264, H.263 video formats. MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+ audio formats are supported by Samsung Galaxy Ace and comes with DNSe sound enhancement feature which allows the user to enjoy music in superior quality. The stereo FM with RDS can be listened on the go with the universal 3.5 mm audio jack output.

Connectivity
GPRS : Yes
Bluetooth : v2.1 with A2DP
Wirless Protocol : Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, DLNA
Port : microUSB 2.0 (High Speed)
Edge : Yes
3G : HSDPA, 7.2 Mbps
GPS : A-GPS support

Battery
  Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 is energized by 1350 mAH li-ion battery which has a standby time Up to 642 hours (2G) / Up to 421 hours (3G) and talk time of Up to 627 minutes (2G) / Up to 387 minutes (3G).

Main disadvantages

• Dismal QVGA video recording @15fps
• No shutter key for the camera
• No support for Adobe Flash in the web browser
• No ambient light sensor
• No DivX/Xvid video support out of the box

So, the video is no good, but the still camera should be doing pretty well. Samsung’s refined touchwiz 3.0 with a document editor and file manager out of the box score good points for the Galaxy Ace too.

   So after those tech specifications if u are still reading here is the conclusion..

Conclusion

  There are so many ways to move forward but only one way to stand still...
    GALAXY ACE is definitely one of the way to move forward and make ur life interesting with loads of android apps.Thumbs up GO FOR IT!!!!

USB Prank

  In this post I will show how to create a simple virus that disables/blocks the USB ports on the computer (PC). As usual I use my favorite C programming language to create this virus. Anyone with a basic knowledge of C language should be able to understand the working of this virus program.

Once this virus is executed it will immediately disable all the USB ports on the computer. As a result the you’ll will not be able to use your pen drive or any other USB peripheral on the computer. The source code for this virus is available for download. You can test this virus on your own computer without any worries since I have also given a program to re-enable all the USB ports.

1. Download the USB_Block.rar file on to your computer.
2. It contains the following 4 files.

• block_usb.c (source code)
• unblock_usb.c (source code)

3. You need to compile them before you can run it.

3. Upon compilation of block_usb.c you get block_usb.exe which is a simple virus that will block (disable) all the USB ports on the computer upon execution (double click).

4. To test this virus, just run the block_usb.exe file and insert a USB pen drive (thumb drive). Now you can see that your pen drive will never get detected. To re-enable the USB ports just run the unblock_usb.exe  (you need to compile unblock_usb.c) file. Now insert the pen drive and it should get detected.

5. You can also change the icon of this file to make it look like a legitimate program.
