RECOVER UR MMC PASSWORD

I can't mention the source of this trick !! since i found this one in my text files, don't even remember when i created that file. trick works fine. all you need is Fexplorer or Seleq 1.6x+ . open the file manager, and open the C: in it !! Then search for MMCSTORE , using find option in file manager. open the file in text format. (to make this you can make its extension to .txt then you can read it.)

yes it contains your password !!
Remember once the phone is formatted the Password is lost. and hence the card too !

Tweak Gtalk With Registry

This Post is about the extra "features" Google implemented in Gtalk and has not said much about.
As this is Registry Trick do remember to backup the Registry.

You can edit most settings by opening regedit (start ---> regedit), and navigating to the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk. The "Google/Google Talk" key has several sub-keys that hold different option values:
Accounts: This one has subkeys for each different account that has logged in on the client. These keys have different values that store the username, password and connection options.
Autoupdate: Stores the current version information. When the client checks for updates it compares Google's response with these values. If an update is needed, it will download and update the new version.
Options: This is the most interesting part, where most of the current hacks should be used (keep reading).
Process: Stores the process ID. Probably used by Google Talk to detect if it's already running or not.
1.) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\show_pin
If 1, shows a "pin" next to the minimize button that keeps the windows on top of all the other open windows when clicked.
2.) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\view_show_taskbutton
If 0, hides the taskbar button, and leaves the tray icon only, when the window is shown
3.) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\away_inactive
If 1, status will be set as Away after the specified number of minutes.
4.) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\away_screensaver
If 1, status will be set as Away after the specified number of minutes.
5.) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\inactive_minutes
Number of inactive minutes to become away if auto-away is on.

Hope you will Njoy it!! More tips for Gmail coming soon !!

Delaying booting in Vista

Actually I setted my PC for my parents, I am having a Vista and XP in Dual boot and UBUNTU on another HDD, Well Dual Boot gives only 30 Seconds to select the OS. but my dad being in old age, he is unable to select the XP and most of the time they boots into Vista !! So the Trick i found on Chip India is as follows :


Where there are multiple versions of windows installed, the Boot Menu is displayed for 30 seconds, giving time to the user to choose the OS, after which the computer boots into the default OS. You can also customize the time-out value, either through the Boot.ini file or through bcdedit. In Vista, you can use BCDEdit, to change the default boot menu time-out value.

In earlier versions on Windows like XP, the Boot Menu Timeout was from 0 to 9999 seconds. A figure' -1' was also permitted, meaning that the machine would not boot unless and until the User made a choice.
In Vista, through msconfig, users can enter a value between 3 and 999 seconds only. The -1 value has been removed in Vista. But Raymond Chen, a developer on Microsoft's Windows Shell team, has pointed out a way where, one can actually go to maximum of 11,059,200 seconds for the Boot Menu Timeout.

To do it, launch cmd with elevated privileges and enter

bcdedit /timeout 11000000

This will bypass the limitations of msconfig and set the Boot Menu Timeout to 11 million seconds or around 128 days or around 4 months. This is too long time.

Stop Windows XP from Cache thumbnail?

Windows XP keeps a thumbnail cache of images on your machine. However, if
these images change frequently, the OS might not always update the
cache file, and thus display the wrong thumbnail. For the same reason,
you might simply want to prevent the OS from creating the cache file
(i.e., thumbs.db) altogether. To stop the OS from maintaining the
cache file, perform the following steps:
1. Start a registry editor (e.g., regedit.exe).
2. Navigate to the
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
registry subkey.
3. Double-click the DisableThumbnailCache value or create this
value of type DWORD if it doesn't exist.
4. Set the value to 1, then click OK.
5. Close the registry editor.
6. Log off and log on for the change to take effect.

Huh!!! Little hard to workout??
simpler way --> Open My Computer --> Tools Menu --> Folder Option --> View Tab -->Advance Setting

Check mark "Do not Cache Thumbnails"

Done!!!

This Trick is useful for low-end pc using XP. Makes it faster.

Orkut on opera

Few days ago I face that i am unable to view scrap of my scrapbook through Opera Mini 3.1 later i checked thru Opera Mobile8.65 same happened there. i was in a journey so i went to nearby Netcafe, as my early reader know i'm Firefox lover,
Due to unavailability of Firefox i used opera. same hell happened. So at last i opened IE6. scrapbook was fine. Later i asked my Orkut friends to check this same they told. I reported it to Orkut. according to orkut any browser with cookies on can be used to view Orkut. Opera desktop 7+ are supported.
Still no reply from orkut support regarding issue(rather than thank you for your support ............)

Then i checked for Opera Support forum. What i found is this :

For opera Desktop( little Setup you have to do.) :
Open Orkut Web Page
Right click page > Edit site preferences > Display tab > Uncheck Enable inline frames


For opera Mini users(Not told by opera) : use t9space.com( Non google service)(though looks are some what weired but works)

Njoy.
Some of My friends Said they are Having same problem with Safari

Make Firefox Work Faster

Another Speed Up Firefox post ???
Naah!!
actually for any given software, the moment you manage to master it, a new version appears. and your system remain the same. i saw one anonymous comment at Boost speed of firefox
That He/She is using older system firefox2.0.0.2 Was working great on his/her system But firefox developers don't sit silent they keep upgrading Firefox. as i upgrade my Firefox Version to 2.0.0.3
i was unable to work efficiently, may due to my lower configuration Any solution???

Here goes yours :
1. Enter the Configuration panel of firefox by about:config in address-bar .
2. Search and Set
browser.cache.disk.capacity to 3/4 th of existing value.
3.Search and set
browser.cache.memory.capacity to 3/4 th of existing value.
4. Restart you firefox. and you will have enough speed from your system to play with firefox.

Explanation :
Actually browser.cache.memory.capacity and browser.cache.Disk.capacity are the parameters that specify number of memory should be given to the Firefox While Execution. So setting it to lower value reduces load on the RAM and you work faster with your lovely Browser.

Lock the Folder Manually.

If you are Bored of those folder hiding software then you must try this out.
this is your own folder hiding/Locking system Created by you.

Heres What you need :
Some common Sense and a very little knowledge of DOS Commands.

How to do it :
You have to create Two files and the folder to lock.

lets say Folders name is "asd"

File1. Lock.bat ---This file will lock the folder.
GoTo Notepad, Enter the following command


ren asd asd.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}


Save the file with "lock.bat"

File2. Unlock.bat ---This file will Unlock the Folder.
GoTo Notepad, Enter the following command

ren asd.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} asd


Save the file with "unlock.bat"

Done you have created your personal Hiding/Locking Software.
Using it :
Say you have your "ASD" Folder in d: drive, Copy these two files in the same parent path of directory. Now to Lock Simply Double click "Lock.bat" Folder is locked Now.
Try opening it now.
"uuuhhh!!! i am redirected to Control panel !!" thats what you are going to say.
now double Click "Unlock.Bat" to make your folder normal.

Getting Deeper In it :
AS you can see this is the only game of One-Line Command, "ren" is used to rename the folder. Ren require two names, first old name and second Old name.
