Speed up your browsing of Windows 2000 & XP machines

Here's a great tip to speed up your browsing of Windows XP machines. Its actually a fix to a bug installed as default in Windows 2000 that scans shared files for Scheduled Tasks. And it turns out that you can experience a delay as long as 30 seconds when you try to view shared files across a network because Windows 2000 is using the extra time to search the remote computer for any Scheduled Tasks. Note that though the fix is originally intended for only those affected, Windows 2000 users will experience that the actual browsing speed of both the Internet & Windows Explorers improve significantly after applying it since it doesn't search for Scheduled Tasks anymore. Here's how :

Open up the Registry and go to :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Explorer/RemoteComputer/NameSpace
Under that branch, select the key :
{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}
and delete it.
This is key that instructs Windows to search for Scheduled Tasks. If you like you may want to export the exact branch so that you can restore the key if necessary.
This fix is so effective that it doesn't require a reboot and you can almost immediately determine yourself how much it speeds up your browsing processes.

How to control your home computer from anywhere (free)

Ever been at a friend's house and wanted to show off a photo you left saved on your home computer? Ever wanted to check from the office that your daughter's doing homework and not instant messaging with friends at home? Ever need to grab a file on your home hard drive when you're miles away? An age-old protocol called VNC and some free software lets you control your home computer from anywhere. In this tutorial, we'll set up a VNC (Virtual Network Computing) server on your home computer, which will let you connect to your desktop and drive it from any Internet-connected computer. Notes and warnings: Running a server and opening up a port on your home computer to the Internet is a risky undertaking. Make sure your computer has all the latest security patches, has been checked for spyware and viruses and that you're using strong passwords. The VNC protocol is not inherently secure. This how-to assumes you're comfortable with basic networking concepts. If you're scared off by the fine print, check out an easier alternative to VNC. Still with me? Read on. The Virtual Network Computing (VNC) protocol remotely controls another computer over a network. Think of it as a window into your home computer's desktop from any other computer. Your key presses and mouse clicks get transferred over the network and happen on the remote computer in real time, and anyone at the remote computer can watch the action as it happens. A few things you can do with a VNC server running at home: Start a downloading a large file, like a movie, in the morning so it's there when you get home in the evening Search your home computer's IM logs, address book or file system for important information Help Mom figure out why Microsoft Word doesn't start without having to go to her house (even though Mom would like to see you more often) Control a headless (monitor-less) machine like a media center or file server in another room in the house from the laptop on the couch VNC requires two components for a successful connection: the server on your home computer, and the viewer on the remote computer. Let's set up each component to get going. Here's how. Step 1. Install the VNC server. Windows users: TightVNC is free Windows VNC server and client software. http://www.tightvnc.com/ TightVNC is a nice choice because it also allows for file transfers and high compression levels for slow connections. Download TightVNC from here: http://www.tightvnc.com/download.html and run the installation on your home computer. Start the server, and set a password for incoming connections. TightVNC can be set to run as a Windows service, which means your Windows usernames and passwords can be used to authenticate on the VNC server connection. Be sure all your Windows passwords are set and strong, and that any passwordless guest accounts are disabled. Mac users: OSXvnc is a free Mac VNC server. Download, install, set up a password and start the server. http://www.redstonesoftware.com/vnc.html your VNC server is connected directly to the Internet, it is now listening for Internet requests [2] on port 5900, VNC's default port (which is also configurable). Visit WhatIsMyIP from your home computer to determine its IP address and write it down. Step 2. Install the VNC client. On the remote Windows computer, also download and install TightVNC, but this time, start the viewer, NOT the server. If you're on a Mac, download the free Chicken of the VNC Mac viewer to connect to your home PC. Enter your home computer's IP address [3] and password to connect. http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/ And that's that! You're virtually sitting at your home desktop from anywhere in the world. A few extra VNC tips to chew on: For slower network connections, set the compression to "best." The window image quality will be lower, but the connection response will be snappier. Bring a VNC viewer with you on a USB memory stick so you don't have to download and install on every computer you want to use to connect to your server. Avoid having to install a server on Mom's computer; email her the 166K self-extracting SingleClick UltraVNC server for your next tech support phone session. More on SingleClick in an upcoming Lifehacker feature. read more here: http://www.lifehacker.com/software/feature/geek-to-live--how-to-control-your-home-computer-from-anywhere-125607.php

Here is a tutorial on how to hide files in Jpg's

Here is a tutorial on how to hide files in Jpg's. Please note it isn't the most secure method but it's still cool to play with. A simple solution to make this more secure, is to use encryption on the RAR file when your create it, but thats not the point of this tutorial :) The idea is to show how files can be 'slammed' together, to stop the average PC user from finding them. Step by Step Instructions You will need the following.. Windows 2000 / XP (probably Vista, too!) Basic Knowledge of the Command Prompt Winrar 1. Gather your image and the files you wish to lodge into it. Here I have a meeting.txt which which I will slap inside my picture secret.jpg . put the files inside folder hidden (eg.) as shown below[/b][/color] 2. Add the files you want to hide into a new RAR archive eg. meeting.rar 3. Open Command Prompt by typing cmd in RUN and type the following command (this is just example . comand depends on where you create the file) >cd.. >cd.. >cd hidden >copy /b secret.jpg + meeting.rar lizard.jpg where secret.jpg is the original picture, meeting.rar is the file to be hidden, and lizard.jpg is the file which contains both. as shown below 4 . so the new picture lizard.jpg which contained the hidden file is created [color=orange][b]When you view the picture you will see only the picture (not the hidden file). To see the the hidden file inside the picture change the file extension from .jpg to .rar and extract it. You can use this method to hide some files from average user.

Single Click Shutdown

Did you know that in Windows XP you can shut down your computer from the (eventually DOS prompt) command line box? Moreover, you can do this by clicking your mouse only once.



All you need to do is... right-click on an empty Desktop spot -> select New -> Shortcut -> type shutdown followed by a space, and then enter one or more of the parameters listed below -> click Next -> type a suggestive name for your new shortcut -> finally, click Finish.


This is the Shutdown.exe (located in %systemroot%\System32, usually C:\Windows\System32) syntax:


shutdown [-i|-l|-s|-r|-a] [-f] [-m \\computername] [-t xx] [-c "Text"] [-d[u][p]:xx:yy]>

Valid command line switches:

-a = Abort system shutdown in progress ONLY IF the -t xx timeout option was already set to ANY value other than 0. ALL switches except -l and -m are ignored during abort.

-c "Text" = Text comment (case insensitive) to be displayed in the Message area of the System Shutdown window. MUST be enclosed between quotes. Maximum allowed 127 ASCII characters.

-d [u][p]:xx:yy = Reason code for shutdown:
u = User code.
p = Planned shutdown code.
xx = Major reason code. Positive integer number less than 256.
yy = Minor reason code. Positive integer number less than 65536.

-f = Force running applications to close without warning.

-i = Display the shutdown interface (GUI). MUST be the first option!

-l = Log off the current user of the local computer (default action). Can NOT be used with the -m option unless the current user has Sysadmin rights, in which case the -m switch takes precedence.
-m \\computername = Remote/network computer name (most always case sensitive) to log off/restart/shut down. Current user MUST have Sysadmin rights to be allowed to use this switch!

-s = Shut down the local computer.

-r = Shut down and restart (reboot) the local computer.

-t xx = Set shutdown timer to timeout for xx seconds. IF NOT specified defaults to 20 seconds. Allowed values between 0 and 99 seconds. The -a switch is the ONLY one that CAN be used during the timeout period.

NOTES:
The dash (-) in front of these switches can be replaced by a forward slash (/).

Spaces are NOT required to separate the shutdown command from ANY following switches, but ARE required to separate ANY switch from its following parameter(s), if any.
For example:

shutdown -s -c "Shutting down!" -t 3

tells your computer to shutdown after waiting for 3 seconds while the System Shutdown window will display text above in the Message area.

Optional: after you're done creating your customized shortcut for shutdown -> right-click on it -> select Properties -> enter your desired key "combo" in the Shortcut Key box (e.g. Ctrl + Alt + End) -> click OK/Apply.
From now on just left-click on your shutdown shortcut or hit that key combination to turn off/restart/log off your computer.
