			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you use a lot of online services it  also means that you have got a lot of passwords and usernames to  remember. Aware of this issue, all Internet browsers have got a special  feature which, as soon as you login your email account for example,   prompt you to save password and username so that, next time you will use  the service again, the browser will fill in the login interface for  you. However, while the username is fully displayed, the password is  hidden by asterisks. Now, if for any reason you don’t remember such a  password you won’t have any way to recover it. Usually, to get it back,  you will have to buy a special piece of software. Recently, I have found  an interesting, amazing piece of code which will <strong>make visible all your forgotten passwords hidden behind asterisk</strong> in your browser…in a couple of seconds and without spending a dime!</p>
<p>The piece of code I am going to show you  works with all Internet browsers including: Internet Explorer, Firefox,  Google Chrome, Safari etc. Here is the procedure to follow to<strong> </strong><em>reveal your passwords:</em></p>
<ol>
<li>Open your browser.</li>
<li>Go to the Web page containing the login in form where you saved your password.</li>
<li>Copy and paste the following piece of code to your browser address bar:</li>
<li>javascript:(function(){var s,F,j,f,i; s = &#8220;&#8221;; F = document.forms; for(j=0; j&lt;F.length; ++j) { f = F[j]; for (i=0; i&lt;f.length; ++i) { if (f[i].type.toLowerCase() == &#8220;password&#8221;) s += f[i].value + &#8220;n&#8221;; } } if (s) alert(&#8220;Passwords in forms on this page:&#8221; + s); else alert(&#8220;There are no passwords in forms on this page.&#8221;);})();</li>
<li>Press Enter.</li>
<li>As soon as you press Enter, the browser will display a window containing the password!</li>
</ol>

		<description><![CDATA[Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file format proprietary to Adobe Systems for representing two-dimensional documents in a device independent and resolution independent fixed-layout document format.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://tapasmanohari.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/pdf.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-249" title="pdf" src="http://tapasmanohari.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/pdf.jpg?w=194&#038;h=194" alt="" width="194" height="194" /></a>Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file format proprietary to Adobe Systems for representing two-dimensional documents in a device independent and resolution independent fixed-layout document format. Each PDF file encapsulates a complete description of a 2D document (and, with the advent of Acrobat 3D, embedded 3D documents) that includes the text, fonts, images, and 2D vector graphics that compose the document. PDF files do not encode information that is specific to the application software, hardware, or operating system used to create or view the document. This feature ensures that a valid PDF will render exactly the same regardless of its origin or destination (but depending on font availability).</p>
<p>Anyone may create applications that read and write PDF files without having to pay royalties to Adobe Systems; Adobe holds a number of patents relating to the PDF format and claims that it is an open standard, licensing them on a royalty-free basis for use in developing software that complies with its PDF specification.[1]</p>
<p>PDF files are most appropriately used to encode the exact look of a document in a device-independent way. While the PDF format can describe very simple one page documents, it may also be used for many pages, complex documents that use a variety of different fonts, graphics, colors, and images.</p>
<p>Readers for many platforms are available, such as Xpdf, Foxit and Adobe&#8217;s own Adobe Reader; there are also front-ends for many platforms to Ghostscript. PDF readers are generally free. There are many software options for creating PDFs, including the PDF printing capability built in to Mac OS X, the multi-platform OpenOffice, numerous PDF print drivers for Microsoft Windows, and Adobe Acrobat itself. There is also specialized software for editing PDF files.</p>
<p>Proper subsets of PDF have been, or are being, standardized under ISO for several constituencies:</p>
<p>PDF/X for the printing and graphic arts as ISO 15930 (working in ISO TC130)<br />
PDF/A for archiving in corporate/government/library/etc environments as ISO 19005 (work done in ISO TC171)<br />
PDF/E for exchange of engineering drawings (work done in ISO TC171)<br />
PDF/UA for universally accessible PDF files</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><em>Top TEN Tips For PowerPoint<br />
</em></h2>
<h3><em>Tip 1: </em><em>To links presentations to the e-mail address</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>Select the object (text or graphic)      you want to turn into a hyperlink.</li>
<li>Right-click the object and choose <strong>Action      Settings</strong> from the pop-up menu.</li>
<li>From the <strong>Action Settings</strong> dialog box displayed,      click <strong>Hyperlink to: </strong>and pick the <strong>URL…</strong> from the drop-down      list box.</li>

<strong>mailto: </strong>address@domain.com (Example: mailto:steven@yahoo.com)</li>
<li>Click <strong>OK</strong> twice to close the      window.</li>
</ul>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 2: </em><em>To change PowerPoint’s default file location</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>From the <strong>Tools</strong> menu, then click      <strong>Options</strong>.</li>
<li>Click the <strong>Save</strong> tab.</li>
<li>In the <strong>Default file location</strong> text box, enter the complete drive and path to the folder where you&#8217;d like      to store your presentations. Make sure that the folder has already been      created before you do this.</li>
<li>Click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
</ul>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 3: </em><em>To tweak the placement of a graphic</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>Select the graphic or text box.</li>
<li>Press and hold down the <strong>Ctrl</strong> key.</li>
<li>Use the arrow keys to move graphic or      text up, down, right, or left.</li>
</ul>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 4: </em><em>To embed TrueType fonts</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>Create you presentation as normal.</li>
<li>From the <strong>File</strong> menu, click <strong>Save      As</strong> command.</li>
<li>From the <strong>Save As</strong> dialog box,      click on the <strong>Tools</strong> icon drop down menu and select <strong>Save      Options</strong>.</li>
<li>From the <strong>Save Options</strong> dialog      box, select the <strong>Embed TrueType fonts</strong> command.</li>
<li>Click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Note: </strong>This can make your presentation to display the current font even when used on a different PC that does not have the fonts you have used installed locally.</p>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 5: </em><em>To jump to a particular slide in PowerPoint slide show</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>Just type the number of the slide and      press the <strong>Enter</strong> key.<br />
OR</li>
<li>Right-click the screen, point to <strong>Go</strong>,      point to <strong>By Title</strong>, then click the title text of the slide you want.</li>
</ul>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 6: </em><em>To compress and optimize presentation (ppt) to decrease the file size</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>Open your PowerPoint presentation</li>
<li>Click <strong>File</strong> Menu and then <strong>Save      as</strong>.</li>
<li>From the save dialog box, click the <strong>Tools</strong> drop down menu and select <strong>Compress Pictures</strong>.</li>
<li>From the <strong>Compress Pictures</strong> dialog box, select <strong>All pictures in document</strong>.</li>
<li>In the <strong>Change resolution</strong> section, select <strong>Web/Screen</strong> unless you need to be able to print the      presentation in high quality.</li>

<li>Click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
<li>Confirm that you want to Compress      Pictures (if the dialog appears).</li>
<li>Save the presentation to a new file      name.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Save</strong>.</li>
</ul>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 7: </em><em>To Slide Shows in a mini-window</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>Hold down the <strong>Ctrl</strong> key while      you click the <strong>Slide Show</strong> icon.</li>
<li>PowerPoint displays your slide show in      a small window rather than full screen.</li>
<li>When you find something you&#8217;d like to      change, click back in the main PowerPoint window.</li>
<li>The screen show window minimizes      itself onto the Windows Taskbar.</li>
<li>Do the necessary changes then click      the <strong>Slide Show</strong> icon again to resume your mini-show with your most      recent changes in place.</li>
</ul>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 8: </em><em>To enter the text – Fast way</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>Start a new presentation or insert a      new slide into an existing one.</li>
<li>Press <strong>Ctrl+Enter</strong>, this      automatically selects the Title placeholder for editing. Enter your title      text.</li>
<li>Press <strong>Ctrl+Enter</strong> again, this      selects the Body Text placeholder for editing. Enter your body text or      bullet points.</li>
<li>Press <strong>Ctrl+Enter</strong> again, since      there are no more text placeholders on the current slide, this creates a      new slide and selects the Title placeholder for editing, so you can begin      entering the new title text immediately.</li>
</ul>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 9: </em><em>To get additional guides</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>From the <strong>View</strong> menu, click <strong>Guides</strong>.</li>
<li>Click and hold down the <strong>Ctrl</strong> key while you drag an existing guide to a new position.</li>
</ul>
<h3><em><br />
</em><em>Tip 10: </em><em>To remove all the rehearsed timings recorded before</em></h3>
<ul>
<li>Switch to <strong>Slide Sorter</strong> view.</li>
<li>Press <strong>Ctrl+A</strong> to select all of      the slides.</li>
<li>From the <strong>Slide Show</strong> menu, click      <strong>Slide Transition</strong>.</li>
<li>From the <strong>Slide Transition</strong> dialog box displayed, in the <strong>Advance</strong> section, set the <strong>Automatically      After</strong> to zero.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Apply to All</strong> button to      remove timings from all of your slides at once.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Some Other Tips</h2>
<h5>Save Your Fonts with Your Presentation</h5>
<p><a name="fontembedding"></a>If you&#8217;re preparing a presentation that you plan to  distribute to others, be sure that you check this option by clicking on the  Tools button in the File/Save As dialog box.  This will work for most TrueType  fonts on the Windows platform.</p>
<h5>Saving Your Toolbar Configurations</h5>
<p><a name="toolbarconfig"></a>If you like to customize your UI, move toolbars  around, configure toolbars, etc, then you&#8217;ll want to know that all this  information is stored in c:\windows\application  data\microsoft\powerpoint\ppt.pcb</p>
<p>By copying this file, you can move your customizations to other  machines.</p>
<h5>Displaying Keyboard Shortcuts in Tool Tips</h5>
<p><a name="displayshortcuts"></a>If you&#8217;d like to see the available keyboard  shortcuts for menus, commands, and toolbar buttons, go to Tools/Customize, click  on the Options tab, and click on &#8220;show shortcut keys in screen tips&#8221;.</p>
<h5>Getting Rid of Short Menus</h5>
<p><a name="shortmenus"></a>Forgetting user reaction to this feature when it was  introduced in Word years ago, the Office team decided to try it again.   Unfortunately, it&#8217;s still annoying.  To see all of your options when you click  on menus, go to Tools/Customize, click on the Options tab, and uncheck &#8220;menus  show recently used commands&#8221;.</p>
<h5>Preview Fonts in the Toolbar</h5>
<p><a name="previewfonts"></a>If you&#8217;d like to see previews of the actual fonts in  the font selection of the formatting toolbar, go to Tools/Customize, click on  the Options tab, and click &#8220;List font names in their font&#8221;, click Close.</p>
<h5>Making Auto-Fit Text Stop Auto-Fitting</h5>
<p><a name="autofittext"></a>Turn this feature off by going to Tools/Options,  click on the Edit tab, and uncheck &#8220;autofit text to text placeholder&#8221;, click  OK.</p>
<h5>Getting Rid of Tri-Pane View</h5>
<p><a name="tripane"></a>Unfortunately there is no way to permanently avoid this  improvement, but you can quickly get rid of it by holding down the CTRL key when  you click on the Slide View button.</p>
<h5>Using Ctrl-Drag to Copy</h5>
<p><a name="ctrldragcopy"></a>You can quickly make a copy of any object by holding  down the CTRL key while you drag on the object.  You will then &#8220;drag off&#8221; a new  copy.</p>
<h5>Making Slides Print Correctly</h5>
<p><a name="printright"></a>PowerPoint has certain defaults to determine how it  prints each object on the page.  You can see over-ride these defaults.  Go to  View/Black and White; this will show you a gray-scale preview of how your slide  will print.  To change the print settings for any given object, right-click on  it, then click &#8220;Black and White&#8221;, and then choose the appropriate print option  for that object.  Master objects can be selected by going to the Master page  View.</p>
<h5>Preview Slide Show Effects</h5>
<p><a name="previewslideshow"></a>While editing a presentation, hold down the CTRL  key while clicking the slide show view button; this will open a tiny preview  window showing that slide in slide show mode.</p>
<h5>Setting the Default Text Style</h5>
<p><a name="defaulttextstyle"></a>If you want to change the style of the text  that appears when you type things that aren&#8217;t the title or the slide body, do  the following:<br />
Make sure no objects are selected.<br />
From the Format menu,  select Font. Make all the changes that you want there, and click OK.<br />
From  that point on, new text will be created in that style.</p>
<p>To Set the formatting for the title or slide body objects, go to the Slide  Master and format these objects on the master.</p>
<h5>Using Different Backgrounds within one Presentation</h5>
<p><a name="different backgrounds"></a>Users of PowerPoint 2000 and lower will  only have two background designs automatically supplied with the Masters  (counting both the Slide Master and the Title Master).  However, you can have  any design you want on any slide. From the Format menu, select Background. Check  the box that says &#8220;omit background items&#8221; and this will make the slide ignore  the Slide Master&#8217;s design. You are now free to add whatever design you want to  this slide. If you want to do this to many slides at once, go to the Slide  Sorter, select the slides, and then use the Format menu command. Remember though  that if you choose to do something like put a photographic background on many of  your slides instead of doing it once on the Master, that your file size may  increase dramatically.</p>
<p>PowerPoint 2002 supports multiple background masters.</p>
<h5>Using More than One Guide</h5>
<p><a name="many guides"></a>If you like using guides, but wish there were  more, you can create additional Guides by simply holding down the CTRL key while  dragging on an existing Guide. This will create a new guide. To get rid of  guides, just drag them off the edge of the slide.</p>
<h5>Using Guides to Measure</h5>
<p><a name="measurewithguides"></a>Make the Guides visible by using View/Guides.   Then, hold down the SHIFT key while you click-and-hold a guide; the tooltip for  the guide will display 0:00.  As you move the guide, the distance the guide  covers from the beginning of the drag will be displayed in the units of your  ruler.  In this way you can measure distances between objects, place guides at  specific places, etc.</p>
<h5>Creating Pages with Slides and Descriptive Text</h5>
<p><a name="anchor252770"></a>If you want to create printable pages that have  notes or descriptive text associated with each slide, PowerPoint has a feature  designed to do just this called Notes Pages, or Speaker&#8217;s Notes (depending on  which version you&#8217;re using). To view the Notes page for any slide, go to the  View menu and select Notes Pages. You will see an image of your slide there, and  a placeholder for adding your script, notes, or any other text you wish. You can  cut-and-paste text from Word here if you like. To print these pages, bring up  the Print dialog, and at the bottom of the dialog where it says &#8220;Print What:&#8221;,  select Notes Pages. These pages were originally designed to be used as audience  hand outs (with space for the audience to take notes) but were also used by many  as speaker&#8217;s notes: the text block would have the script of the presentation, to  be used by the speaker, or for sales binders to educated sales people.</p>
<h5>Making Presentation Files Smaller</h5>
<p><a name="anchor276534"></a>Prior to PowerPoint 97, there was no internal file  compression code inside of PowerPoint, and files could get pretty big quickly.  The most common cause of large files is the addition of large bitmaps.  PowerPoint 97 compresses these bitmaps, but previous versions do not. To keep  your presentations as small as you can, try reducing the resolution of your  bitmaps, which will bring their size down tremendously. For viewing on screen,  the bitmaps don&#8217;t need to be more than 96 dpi; they won&#8217;t print nicely until  they&#8217;re up around 150 or higher, but the screen always displays at 96 dpi, so if  the primary viewing medium is the screen, there&#8217;s no point in having the bitmaps  be a higher resolution. Also, the bitmap format can make a big difference to  your file sizes. JPEG and PNG both have good internal compression code. GIF has  some, but not as good as JPEG. BMP files are the largest; TIFF files will also  be very large.</p>
<p>Sometimes, as you&#8217;re working on a presentation, you&#8217;ll notice that the file  seems to get bigger for no reason.  To get rid of this &#8220;bloating&#8221;, save the file  using &#8220;File/Save As&#8221; and give the file a new name.  This can reduce the file  size up to 50%.</p>
<h5>Building Presentations for Distribution to Others</h5>
<p><a name="anchor298011"></a>If you&#8217;re making a PowerPoint presentation that  you intend to distribute to lots of different people, here are some important  things to watch out for that will cause problems:</p>
<p>1. Stick with the fonts that come installed with Windows; Fancy fonts that  appear on your machine will cause problems if everyone else doesn&#8217;t have  them.</p>
<p>2. Avoid embedding sounds and videos: these will not go from Mac to Windows  gracefully, and you have to be very careful about how you insert the files in  order to get them to &#8220;travel&#8221; properly. See the FAQ section for more information  on this.</p>
<p>3. Try looking at the presentation on a different platform (Mac vs Windows);  be prepared for some visual changes in your file&#8211;the version or platform may  not support some of the features you&#8217;ve put in, so be sure to sanity check your  file on several different machines and versions BEFORE you distribute it!</p>
<h5>Easily Changing from Caps to Lower Case (or Vice Versa)</h5>
<p><a name="anchor155539"></a> If you have text that is in the wrong case, select  the text, and then click Shift+F3 until it changes to the case style that you  like. Clicking Shift+F3 toggles the text case between ALL CAPS, lower case, and  Initial Capital styles. You&#8217;ll be surprised how often you use this once you get  the hang of it!</p>
<h5>Nudging Objects</h5>
<p><a name="Nudging"></a> You can use the arrow keys to move objects very small  distances. This is a big win for those laptop users who no longer have mice.  Select the object, then use your arrow keys. Each press of the key will move the  object on &#8220;grid unit&#8221; (1/12th of an inch, don&#8217;t ask why); if you hold down the  ALT key while nudging, or if you have the grid turned off, you can move the  objects one pixel at a time.</p>
<h5>Saving Across Multiple Diskettes</h5>
<p><a name="FileCompression"></a> From the File menu, select Pack and Go. This  wizard will compress your PowerPoint presentation and copy the file onto as many  floppies as are necessary.  Be sure to format a bunch of floppies BEFORE you  start the process, and make sure they are empty.  This feature requires  PowerPoint 95 or higher.</p>
<h5>Subliminal Messages</h5>
<p><a name="SubliminalMessages"></a>These can be pretty hysterical in the right  circumstances. Create a text object. With the text object selected, click on the  Animation Effects button on the tool bar (the one that looks like a yellow  star), and then click on the &#8220;flash once&#8221; button. Go to slide show and see the  message quickly flash and then disappear.</p>
<h5>Editing Drawings</h5>
<p><a name="EditingDrawings"></a>Anything you draw with the pencil tool, you can  edit. To get the object into &#8220;points mode&#8221;, either double-click on the object,  or select it then hit the Enter key. You will then see points at every vertex,  which you can move. You can add points by holding down the shift key and  clicking, you can subtract points by holding down the ALT key while clicking,  and you can of course just drag points around.</p>
<h5>Soft Shadows</h5>
<p><a name="SoftShadows"></a>You can create &#8220;soft&#8221; shadows for square or round  objects that sit on a solid color background. Make a copy of the object, then  change its fill to be shaded from black to the background color, with the  shading set with black going from the center out to the background color at the  edges. Make this object about 150% bigger than the original object, and put it  behind the object. This will give you the effect of &#8220;soft&#8221; shadows.</p>
<h5>Selecting Small Objects</h5>
<p><a name="SelectingSmallObjects"></a>Hit the ESCAPE key to insure that nothing  is current selected, then repeatedly hit the TAB key, which will toggle you  through a selection of all of the objects on a slide. This is useful for  selecting very small objects, or objects that are covered up by other larger  objects.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-218" title="Google-Chrome-Browser-Logo" src="http://tapasmanohari.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/google-chrome-browser-logo.jpg?w=146&#038;h=169" alt="Google-Chrome-Browser-Logo" width="146" height="169" /><strong>Google Chrome</strong> is a web browser developed by Google. It is fast and supposed to be stable. But its not working with SEP application control.As a matter of fact,  Chrome may return you the following error: <em>“The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005).Click on OK to terminate the application”</em>. This kind of error affects all windows operating system including <strong>Windows Vista</strong> (<strong>SP1</strong>, <strong>Ultimate</strong>), <strong>Windows XP3 or Windows XP2.</strong> Most of the time the message 0xc0000005 is triggered by <strong>Symantec Endpoint Protection</strong>.</p>
<ol>
<li>Back up the registry on an affected system.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Start.</strong></li>
<li>Click <strong>Run.</strong></li>
<li>In the <strong>Search bar </strong>type <strong>regedit</strong> and press <strong>Enter.</strong></li>
<li>Look for the following key <strong>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ CurrentControlSet\ Services\SysPlant</strong></li>
<li>Locate the subkey <strong>Start</strong> and</li>
<li>Change the value to <strong>4 </strong>to disable the drivers.</li>
<li>Reboot the system to commit the changes.</li>
</ol>
<p>Another way to  fix this problem first you will need to find all of the shortcuts for the program including the one on your <strong>Quick Launch</strong> task bar. Right click on the <strong>shortcuts</strong> and go to <strong>properties</strong>.</p>
<p>Add the argument <strong>–no-sandbox</strong> at the end of the Target Path for Google Chrome shortcut.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-217" title="sandbox1" src="http://tapasmanohari.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/sandbox1.gif?w=334&#038;h=396" alt="sandbox1" width="334" height="396" /></p>
<p>After adding the argument in the Target Path line, click OK to save the changes.  then use  Google Chrome internet browser and it should work fine.</p>

It is expected that Windows 7 will be released in 2010. Windows 7 is expected to use less electricity more effectively, not be as much of a &#8220;resource hog&#8221; as Vista, and contain elements for better integration with mobile devices and PC synchronization.<br />
The new operating system will ship in client and server versions. The client version will be available in 32-bit and 64-bit editions. The server version, also called Windows 2008(Windows Server 7) will be available only in a 64-bit edition.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-194" title="windows_seven" src="http://tapasmanohari.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/windows_seven.jpg?w=300&#038;h=187" alt="windows_seven" width="300" height="187" />Windows 7 is expected to incorporate a new version of Media Center as well as support for multiple video adapters. Other anticipated new features include:</p>
<p>* Gadgets integrated into Windows Explorer<br />
* Improved network connections<br />
* Integrated XML Paper Specification (XPS) Essentials Pack<br />
* Enhanced Control Panel<br />
* Enhanced Calculator program with statistics and unit conversion capabilities<br />
* Ability to store Internet Explorer settings on a Windows Live account<br />
* Updated version of the Paint program<br />
* Updated version of the WordPad program<br />
* A new Mapping program<br />
* A new Virtual Piano program</p>
<p>Microsoft has confirmed that there will be a beta version of the Windows 7 upgrade advisor where users can check to see if their computers are capable of running Windows 7.</p>
<p><strong>Hardware requirements</strong></p>
<p>Microsoft has published their recommended specifications for a system running Windows 7, which are much the same as those for premium editions of Vista.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-137" title="iinter7" src="http://tapasmanohari.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/iinter7.jpg?w=226&#038;h=169" alt="iinter7" width="226" height="169" />Internet Explorer 7.0 is the long awaited tabbed web browser by Microsoft. Nearly four years after the release of Internet Explorer 6.0, in the face of growing competition from Mozilla&#8217;s Firefox, Microsoft has finally given the old IE platform a facelift. Optimized design along with new cool interface, favorites centre, search box, RSS feeds and most importantly easy to use tabbed browsing are the exclusive features of this new internet explorer.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">Y</span>ou must have Windows XP Service Pack-2 (SP2) in order to install Internet Explorer 7.0. But still you will face a problem while installing this new Internet Explorer if your copy of Windows XP is not a genuine (non-pirated) one, since IE 7.0 installation requires genuine windows validation!!! So what to do??? Don’t worry… There are some tricky steps through which you can install IE 7.0 even in<span class="fullpost"> your pirated copy of windows XP bypassing the genuine windows validation. You just have to follow the following steps one by one:</span></p>
<ol>
<li>Download Internet Explorer 7.0 installer from the <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/default.mspx" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Microsoft site</span></a>. You have to choose Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) as your operating system. Remember you can’t install IE 7.0 if service pack 2.0 is not installed in your operating system.</li>
<li>Extract the downloaded Internet Explorer setup file (<span style="color:#333399;">IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe</span>) using Winzip to a directory (IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu).</li>
<li>Download the patched <a href="http://freedownloadz4u.googlepages.com/iecustom.dll" target="_blank">iecustom.dll</a> and then copy-paste it to the <strong>update folder</strong> (IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enuupdate) and click <strong>yes</strong> when asked to <strong>overwrite</strong>.</li>
<li>Now, download <a href="http://fmshaon.googlepages.com/normaliz.exe" target="_blank"><strong>normaliz.exe</strong></a> . Then copy this exe file and paste it in your “<span style="color:#ff0000;font-size:130%;"><strong>c:</strong></span>” drive.</li>
<li>Run ‘<strong>update.exe’</strong> in the update folder (not iesetup.exe!!!). At the end, you have to choose ‘<strong><span style="color:red;">Restart Later</span></strong>’ (not Restart Now) option to finish the running process of the exe file.</li>
<li>Now you have to download <a href="http://freedownloadz4u.googlepages.com/normaliz.dll" target="_blank">normaliz.dll</a> and then copy-paste it to “<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#ff0000;">c:windowssystem32</span>” directory (in order to prevent problems with the file not being found after the installation). And then <strong>reboot/restart</strong> your pc.</li>
<li>After rebooting your pc, you may face a problem with a file called <strong>normaliz.dll</strong> that can not be found by explorer.exe. If you’re having this problem, you will find your desktop blank.<span style="color:#333399;">(If you are not facing this problem then just go to step <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif' alt='8)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span> In order to fix this problem, you have to do the following  things one by one:
<ol type="a">
<li>Press <span style="font-weight:bold;">ctrl-alt-del</span> to go to the task manager.</li>
<li>Go to “<strong>File -&gt; New Task (Run…)</strong>” in the task manager.</li>
<li>Type: ‘<strong>C:normaliz.exe</strong>’ (<span style="color:#ff0000;">excluding quotation marks</span>) in the ‘<strong>open</strong>’ field  and then press the ‘<strong>ok</strong>’ button.</li>
<li>‘<strong>WinZip Self-Extractor &#8211; normalize.exe</strong>’ window should popped up and then press the ‘<strong>unzip</strong>’ button.</li>
<li>Reboot your pc and yahoo!!! now you can see your desktop contents!!!.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Now you have to run ‘<strong>xmllitesetup.exe</strong>’ in the update folder. This step is very important, because <span class="fullpost">somehow </span>if you forget to run <span class="fullpost">this ‘<strong>xmllitesetup.exe</strong>’ , IE 7.0 will be installed in your PC without it&#8217;s toolbar!!!</span></li>
<li>Then reboot your pc again, run Internet Explorer…and you are done!!!<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-139" title="ie7" src="http://tapasmanohari.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/ie7.jpg?w=436&#038;h=327" alt="ie7" width="436" height="327" /></li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-127" title="browser_tests" src="http://tapasmanohari.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/browser_tests.jpg?w=468&#038;h=189" alt="browser_tests" width="468" height="189" />With the recent release of Safari 4 Beta, there are 4 viable browser options for Windows users. I don’t consider Internet Explorer a good option (measured by security, speed, user friendliness and adherence to web standards) but one could argue there are 5. I’ve heard murmurs that IE 8 is a big improvement, but I’ll reserve commentary until I’ve used it.</p>
<p>I remain a loyal Firefox user because of all the useful extensions, but I keep Chrome and Opera in my back pocket. I use IE as infrequently as I can, which is basically only when the site requires nothing other than IE to function properly.</p>
<p>Safari is fairly new to me but it looks promising. They’ve imitated Chrome’s look but added a few nuggets of their own. I disliked a few things right off the bat. One of the main issues is they bundle Quicktime with the install. There is no good reason for this. There is a good reason to uninstall Quicktime and replace it with Quicktime alternative.  My first order of business was to do just that.  I also made sure to uncheck <a href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/technology/bonjour.html">Bonjour</a> and Apple update during the install.  Just give me the browser without any cruft please.</p>
<p>Speaking of updates, more apps should work like Firefox. It checks for updates periodically when it’s running. If an update is available, it asks if you want to update, you say yes and you’re done. Opera is second best in this category. It checks for updates but when it finds one you have to download the update yourself and exit Opera to install it. But both checks are lightweight and infrequent enough that you don’t even notice them. They stay out of your way. Apple and Google’s updates go out of their way to install separate services just to check for the version, even when you’re not running the program. That is naughty. Enough said.</p>
<p>Here are the results of Sunspider, a Javascript benchmark, for each of the browsers.</p>
<p>I tested with whatever versions I had on my machine. This is by no means a rigorous scientific evaluation, but it doesn’t take a genius to see that IE is woefully behind. Chrome is ahead by a nose with Firefox 3.1 hot on its tail. The other three are neck and neck.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="entry">
<div class="snap_preview">
<p>Here are the step to clean this  viruse:</p>
<ol>
<li>Disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP).</li>
<li>Update the virus definitions.</li>
<li>Run a full system scan.</li>
<li>Delete any values added to the registry<strong> </strong><strong><br />
</strong></li>
</ol>
<p><strong>1.  To disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP)</strong><br />
If you are running Windows Me or Windows XP, we recommend that you temporarily turn off System Restore. Windows Me/XP uses this feature, which is enabled by default, to restore the files on your computer in case they become damaged. If a virus, worm, or Trojan infects a computer, System Restore may back up the virus, worm, or Trojan on the computer.</p>
<p><strong>2.  To update the virus definitions</strong><br />
Symantec Security Response fully tests all the virus definitions for quality assurance before they are posted to our servers. There are two ways to obtain the most recent virus definitions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Running LiveUpdate, which is the easiest way to obtain virus definitions.<br />
If you use Norton AntiVirus 2006, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition 10.0, or newer products, LiveUpdate definitions are updated daily. These products include newer technology.<br />
If you use Norton AntiVirus 2005, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition 9.0, or earlier products, LiveUpdate definitions are updated weekly. The exception is major outbreaks, when definitions are updated more often.</li>
<li>Downloading the definitions using the Intelligent Updater: The Intelligent Updater virus definitions are posted daily. You should download the definitions from the Symantec Security Response Web site and manually install them.</li>
</ul>
<p>The latest Intelligent Updater virus definitions can be obtained here: <a href="http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/defs.download.html">Intelligent Updater virus definitions</a>. For detailed instructions read the document: <a href="http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/nav.nsf/docid/1998082013035306?OpenDocument&amp;src=sec_doc_nam">How to update virus definition files using the Intelligent Updater</a></p>
<p><strong>3.  To run a full system scan</strong><br />
Start your Symantec antivirus program and make sure that it is configured to scan all the files.</p>
<p>For Norton AntiVirus consumer products: Read the document: <a href="http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/nav.nsf/docid/1999110513272906?OpenDocument&amp;src=sec_doc_nam">How to configure Norton AntiVirus to scan all files</a>.<br />
For Symantec AntiVirus Enterprise products: Read the document: <a href="http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-security.nsf/docid/2002052213125148?OpenDocument&amp;src=sec_doc_nam">How to verify that a Symantec Corporate antivirus product is set to scan all files</a>.</p>
<ol>
<li>Run a full system scan.</li>
<li>If any files are detected, follow the instructions displayed by your antivirus program.</li>
<li>Delete the autorun.inf file from writeable removable devices, if necessary.<strong> </strong><strong></strong></li>
</ol>
<p><strong>4.  To delete the value from the registry</strong><br />
<strong></strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Click <strong>Start &gt; Run</strong>.</li>
<li>Type <strong>regedit </strong></li>
<li>Click OK.<br />
<strong>Note:</strong> If the registry editor fails to open the threat may have modified the registry to prevent access to the registry editor. Security Response has <a href="http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/tool.to.reset.shellopencommand.registry.keys.html">developed a tool</a> to resolve this problem.<a href="http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/tool.to.reset.shellopencommand.registry.keys.html"> Download and run this tool</a>, and then continue with the removal.</li>
<li>Navigate to the following registry subkeys:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun<br />
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerShell Folders<br />
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWindows”load”</li>
<li>In the right pane, delete any values associated with the worm.</li>
<li>Exit the Registry Editor.</li>
</ol>
