Skip or bypass Rapidshare, Megaupload Waiting time

Yes, you are reading it correctly, its not a prank or joke, now you can easily avoid the waiting time or usually we say time limit when you download as a free user from the file sharing services such as rapidshare, megaupload, deposifiles, hotfile. Normally you have to wait for 20-60 minutes to download the second file after downloading the first one. 

They implement ways to invite users to purchase a premium service. But this way of limiting Free download limit and asking free users to wait for long time to start another download can be annoying one.

 

Skipscreen is an extension to browser to by pass waiting time on download. Unfortunately it can only be used with Firefox browsers to avoid waiting time while downloading files from some popular File hosting services like:

* Rapidshare.com
* zShare.net
* MediaFire.com
* Megaupload.com
* Sharebee.com
* Depositfiles.com
* Sendspace.com
* Divshare.com
* Linkbucks.com
* Uploaded.to
* Hotfiles.com
* 4shared.com
* Limelinx.com
* Link-Protector.com

Its use is very simple and does not require any configuration, just go to the addon page of the extension and install it, restart your browser and enter one of thesedownload sites and you will no longer have to wait. Download addon from,

Just hear the services options until they say the last one as “Free Call”. When you hear this, don’t press any number on your keyboard and instead SAY “Free call” loudly on your microphone connected to your PC.
 

After this voice message is detected by their system, they will run a short advertisement of their sponsor and make sure you don’t press any number at this time.
WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR A BEEP SOUND after the following message “Please dial the phone number country code first, don’t forget to dial 1 for north America”
 

After you hear this message ,immediately dial the destination number of your choice along with the country code.(e.g. for north America it’s 1 and for India it’s 91)

SPEED UP ACROBAT READER (ALMOST LIKE NOTEPAD)

Adobe Acrobat reader always consumes more memory when it starts. 

The reason behind is, it loads all the plugins, even the plugins that you do not use. 

This trick is to remove all the plugins from the plugins directory to elsewhere. 

Hence, whenever you open Acrobat reader it directly opens the files without loading any plugins and the speed is just like Notepad.

 

1. Go to the installation folder of acrobat reader
(C:\program files\adobe\acrobat\reader\.. whatever)

2. Move all the files and folders from the "plugins" directory to the "Optional" directory. (I repeat.. cut and paste the files NOT copy & paste).

Also make sure that acrobat reader is not open else it will lock the files and not allow you to move the files).

Now your acrobat reader will load very fast and almost as good as notepad.

How to Permanently Disable the System Tray on Windows 7 / Vista / XP

Windows System Tray is a very useful application for most us, rarely do we find it intrusive. But some do find it really irritating and useless. Here’s how a simple registry hack can remove your system tray. I can’t really imagine doing the same to my system.

Open Regedit by using Start Menu search or just Run Box and now navigate to the key below.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

Now if you don’t find the key already all you got to do is create one. Right click on your right pane and create a new 32-bit DWORD value and put the values below:

* Name: NoTrayItemsDisplay
* Value: 1

After creating this key, close Regedit and logoff for this hack to take affect. 

"Note that this is hack only hides the system tray, your startup programs will still load. You’ll still need to disable your applications manually.If you run into any problems after this hack simple delete this key from registry and your system should be back to normal."

Facebook: How to hide friends from Public Access

Facebook has been in dire straits over its Privacy features. Nevertheless, after a long list of hate mails and criticism, they seem to have come to their senses and have offered privacy options completely at our disposal.

Facebook’s previous policy which enabled your friend’s list to be available for the public didn’t go down well with most of the users. So it backtracked and now you have the option of showing the number of friends or no friends at all.

Here is how you do it.

1. Login to your Facebook account and click on ‘Profile’ at the top.

2. On the left, scroll down to your friends box and click the pencil image on the top right hand side of the box.

3. Uncheck the box that says ‘Show Friend list to everyone’. Now your friends will not be available for public access.

Note that when I say public access, I mean people who are not in your Facebook friends list. Also, it does not block the applications you have already allowed.

How to stop as ent email in Gmail

Gmail is I really believe one of the best email service providers out there. Its clean, sophisticated and has lots of features that is I think mostly unknown to most of the daily users. And one of them is Undoing your sent email.

Gmail Labs have loads of features that other email services don’t offer. One of the m is undoing your sent email.

The Undo Send option in Gmail is very useful if you have sent a email without an attachment or sent it to a wrong person by mistake.

This feature by default is unchecked. You can enable it. Here’s how:

1. Login to your Gmail account and goto the Settings options.

2. Click the Labs tab.

3. Enable the Undo Send option and click Save Changes.

Now, here’s the catch. You can cancel the sending only after seconds of hitting the send button. After you get the message “Your message has been sent”, you can’t do anything about it.

How To Get The Most Out Of Your Laptop Battery

This is probably the only thing which frustrates many laptop owners: the battery. Sure, your laptop has the latest OS, mindblowing performance characteristics and just out of the factory graphics card but does it got the battery to survive for a long time? Here are some tips to get the most out of your laptop battery for longer survival till you find that plug point.

1. First and foremost, close any programs that you aren’t using right now. You can turn off other features like the Wifi, bluetooth etc. where you wont need them at all.

2. A warm sunny day and I am sure you don’t need that keyboard backlight. Whats the point in that? Turn it off as it also drains a lot of battery power.

3. Turn down your screen brightness. If you are using it mostly indoors there is no point in having maximum brightness where you can very well see the screen at half the brightness.

4. Most laptops today have the “save power” option or widely incorporated as the “Power saving mode”, enable it. This way, your laptop battery is used optimally.

5. Power off your screen if you are idle for 2 minutes or more. Its a small difference but a large one in the end.

6. Avoid powering stuff from your laptop. Charging your phone or other devices can be avoided so as to avoid draining that battery from that laptop.

7. Drain your battery completely once a month. Yes, this is needed to keep the battery for better performance.

Well, what did you think about my tips? Got one of your own? Share it with us!

Three Ways To Edit A Protected Excel File

You may have come across Excel files that are protected i.e files that can’t be edited by you since the original creator protected it. But there are situations where you really want to edit something in that file, so how do you go about it? Here are three ways to edit a protected file.

1. Upload Files To Google Docs

Uploading the Excel file to Google docs will simply unlock the file. You can then save it under a different name and then download it. Sometimes, the alignment may have been disturbed it. You have to realign them manually.

2. Upload File To Zoho Sheets

Just like Google Docs, Zoho also unlocks the file as soon as you upload it and it also gives users a few more features, like the ability to edit spreadsheets stored in SharePoint. You can follow the same process as above to unlock the file. Zoho retains the originality of the file but the fonts appear different.

3. Unlock With Ensode

Ensode has a pretty bad website but it does get the job done better than the above two. Navigate through all those ads and whatnots and at the bottom of the page, upload your file and agree to the terms of use. You can then download the unlocked file and get on working with it. It retains the file as it is without changes.

After the publish of the software, you have to open that link at client PC's browser. It will show you "Install" button, by pressing it, your software will be installed automatically from server to client.

Benefits:
(1) No experts needed for the installation. Even an end-user can install it by simply clicking on Install button. It wont ask anything during installation, so .. no confusion at all...!!!
(2) No need to prepare CD or DVD of the software. Hence stealing the software is not possible now. In addition, server authentication can be applied so the software can not be installed without proper authentication.
(3) Generally, when we install software, the files are being stored into Program Files folders. So anybody can play some trick with those files to break the security. But with Click Once Deployment, the files are stored to some Unknown Location that CAN NOT be traced by anybody. So your software files will be completely hidden, so no question of security breach or fraud or piracy.
(4) What if you have released some updates in the software. In case of normal installation, you have to again install the software to each and every PC of the organization. But.... Here in Click Once Deployment, if you will re-publish the software onto the server, the updates will be installed automatically at each and every client, when the client will execute the software (Same like in many software you will find "Updates Available" notification at start-up).

There are so many other advantages which proves the Click Once Deployment as True Developer's Choice nowadays.

If you have very big organization and regularly updating your software, then Click Once Deployment is really a co....ol choice....

When We activate GPRS Packs in Mobile, we tend make complete use of it.One of the desired thing is to have Chat IMs(Instant Messenger) on Phone so that one could constantly keep in touch with their Online buddies.

Some of your Phones come with Inbuilt Chat Clients, if you don’t have default Chat Clients you can Use Third Party Chat Clients like Nimbuzz, Fring, eBuddy, mig33, Palringo.Here we try to provide quick insights on some of the IMs.

Nimbuzz

Using Nimbuzz is a Good Experience though it Takes Several Seconds (or even minutes) to make Connection, Sync Accounts and load your Contacts.

It works like Charm when it is Completely loaded if you spare few extra seconds you will enjoy a wholesome chatting experience.

Every 3rd Party Mobile Chat Application Needs Users to Register with them you got to have a Nimbuzz Account before you could add any of other Third Party IMs like GoogleTalk, Yahoo or any another.

Once you are done with login all you need to do is set up all your other IMs which Prompts for your Username and Password.

I Rate Nimbuzz and Fring Equally, Nimbuzz has an upper hand over fring as Nimbuzz is not Stuffed with Ads.

Both Nimbuzz and Fring has Cooler interface supporting Voice Calls and easier IM integration eBuddy being Simple, though supports Facebook Chat Client it has limited features (No Voice calls and Chat Rooms) eBuddy beats both Nimbuzz and Fring when it comes to File Size eBuddy is easy to download but has limited support.

If You want Full Fledged IM experience go with Nimbuzz or Fring Application.What Mobile Application do you Use for Chat?

Change Background color using UIView

A simple iPhone application with three sliders to change the background color.

It will have three sliders on screen, with Tag 10, 11 and 12, to control the colors of red, green blue. At start-up, all the initiate values are set to 0, also the background will be in black. Whenever any slider's value changed, the values of all the sliders will be read and update UIView.backgroundColor accordingly.

- Create a iPhone Application using View-base Application template, xcodeBackgroundColor.

- Modify xcodeBackgroundColorViewController.h to have a (IBAction)sliderChanged:(id)sender.

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface xcodeBackgroundColorViewController : UIViewController {

}
- (IBAction)sliderChanged:(id)sender;
@end

- Modify xcodeBackgroundColorViewController.m to implement (IBAction)sliderChanged:(id)sender.

#import "xcodeBackgroundColorViewController.h"

@implementation xcodeBackgroundColorViewController
- (IBAction)sliderChanged:(id)sender { 
    UISlider *sliderRed = (UISlider *)[self.view viewWithTag:10];
 UISlider *sliderGreen = (UISlider *)[self.view viewWithTag:11];
 UISlider *sliderBlue = (UISlider *)[self.view viewWithTag:12];
 CGFloat red = sliderRed.value;
 CGFloat green = sliderGreen.value;
 CGFloat blue = sliderBlue.value;
 self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:red green:green blue:blue alpha:1.0f];
} 

Save the works.
- Double click on xcodeBackgroundColorViewController.xib to start Interface Builder.
Click on the View to change the background to Black.

Place three Sliders on the View, set minimum=0.0, maximum=1.0, and initial=0.0. Set Tag=10, 11 and 12 respectively.

Select each Slider on it, connect the IBAction of Value Changed to sliderChanged:

- Open Connection Inspector from Tools -> Connection Inspector, or select the second tag on Inspector.

- Click on the Slider to select it. Drag the circle on the right of Value Changed over the File's Owner in xcodeBackgroundColorViewController.xib.

Release and select ValueChanged.

Repeat on all the three sliders. Save the works.

Build and Go in Xcode.
 

 

Thank you all....!!!
