This tip is very interesting for home and some small office users, who wants to restrict user's ability to shutdown their computer. You can hide the Shutdown button from the Start menu using registry editor and also restrict access to shutdown, if a user clicks on Ctrl+Alt+Del.
Follow the given steps to hide system shutdown button from start menu:
To use this feature, you will need to be logged into your computer with
administrative rights.
Click Start button and type regedit in Run option then press Enter for next.
Here locate the location to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \Policies\Explorer


Here in right side panel, right click to create a new DWORD value with name NoClose.
Now assign number 1 to its value data box.
Now close the registry editor and restart your computer after any changes to go into effect.
But next time, if you want to unhide the shutdown button then simply change the value data box to 0 or delete this DWORD item.
Again close the registry editor and restart your computer after any changes to go into effect.

Syntax Notes

To be functional, each DOS command must be entered in a particular way: this command entry structure is known as the command's "syntax." The syntax "notation" is a way to reproduce the command syntax in print. For example, you can determine the items that are optional, by looking for information that is printed inside square brackets. The notation [d:], for example, indicates an optional drive designation. The command syntax, on the other hand, is how YOU enter the command to make it work.
Command Syntax Elements
1. Command NameThe DOS command name is the name you enter to start the DOS program (a few of the DOS commands can be entered using shortcut names). The DOS command name is always entered first. In this book, the command is usually printed in uppercase letters, but you can enter command names as either lowercase or uppercase or a mix of both. 2. SpaceAlways leave a space after the command name.3. Drive DesignationThe drive designation (abbreviated in this book as "d:") is an option for many DOS commands. However, some commands are not related to disk drives and therefore do not require a drive designation. Whenever you enter a DOS command that deals with disk drives and you are already working in the drive in question, you do not have to enter the drive designator. For example, if you are working in drive A (when the DOS prompt A> is showing at the left side of the screen) and you want to use the DIR command to display a directory listing of that same drive, you do not have to enter the drive designation. If you do not enter a drive designation, DOS always assumes you are referring to the drive you are currently working in (sometimes called the "default" drive). 4. A ColonWhen referring to a drive in a DOS command, you must always follow the drive designator with a colon (:) (this is how DOS recognizes it as a drive designation).5. PathnameA pathname (path) refers to the path you want DOS to follow in order to act on the DOS command. As described in Chapter 3, it indicates the path from the current directory or subdirectory to the files that are to be acted upon.6. FilenameA filename is the name of a file stored on disk. As described in Chapter 1, a filename can be of eight or fewer letters or other legal characters. 7. Filename ExtensionA filename extension can follow the filename to further identify it. The extension follows a period and can be of three or fewer characters. A filename extension is not required.8. SwitchesCharacters shown in a command syntax that are represented by a letter or number and preceded by a forward slash (for example, "/P") are command options (sometimes known as "switches"). Use of these options activate special operations as part of a DOS command's functions.9. BracketsItems enclosed in square brackets are optional; in other words, the command will work in its basic form without entering the information contained inside the brackets.10. EllipsesEllipses (...) indicate that an item in a command syntax can be repeated as many times as needed.11. Vertical BarWhen items are separated by a vertical bar (), it means that you enter one of the separated items. For example: ON OFF means that you can enter either ON or OFF, but not both

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 3tells 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

Of course everyone of us is a Gmail fan as it gives us the flexible features which other email clients don’t. Gmail differs from other email clients like Yahoo Mail and Windows Live Mail in the sense that is very much easy to use, it is very much fast and it has a syndication feed (Oh Yes! you heard me right there). This is a feature of Gmail that other popular email clients don’t have and most of us are aware of it but don’t know how to use it and thats where I come to the rescue :DThe syndication feed of Gmail messages can be used to read your newest emails in your Gmail account inbox from outside your Gmail account or should I say using a third party Feed reader application. Follow these simple little steps to configure your Feed reader to fetch your latest email from your Gmail account inbox.1. Open your Feed aggregator/reader software2. Select the option “Subscribe/Add Feed” and enter the following URL in the fieldhttps://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom3. Authenticate yourself using your Gmail username and passwordWoah! Thats it :D now your Feed reader will fetch email updates from your Google account automatically and you don’t need to sign in again and again to your Gmail account through your browser to read your mail.Keep in mind: Some feed readers make a feed “Public” by default so make sure you make this feed “Private” so that no one except you can read your mails :) Have fun

20 interesting facts about Google Laughing LaughingThis is not a trick; but its a useful information that i founded, and like it to share with you all.1. Google started in January, 1996 as a research project at Stanford University, by Ph.D. candidates Larry Page and Sergey Brin when they were 24 years old and 23 years old respectively.2. The prime reason the Google home page is so bare is due to the fact that the founders didn’t know HTML and just wanted a quick interface. In fact it was noted that the submit button was a long time coming and hitting the RETURN key was the only way to burst Google into life.3. Google is a mathematical term 1 followed by one hundred zeroes. The term was coined by Milton Sirotta, nephew of American mathematician Edward Kasne.4. Gmail was used internally for nearly 2 ears prior to launch to the public. They discovered there was approximately 6 types of email users, and Gmail has been designed to accommodate these 6.5. It consisted of over 450,000 servers, racked up in clusters located in data centers around the world.6. The Google search engine receives about a billion search requests per day.7. Google's index of web pages is the largest in the world, comprising of eight billions(2005) of web pages. Google searches this immense collection of web pages often in less than half a second.8. Google has a tradition of creating April Fool's Day jokes - such as Google MentalPlex, which allegedly featured the use of mental power to search the web. Some thought the announcement of Gmail in 2004 around April Fool's Day was a joke.9. Google receives daily search requests from all over the world, including Antarctica.10. Users can restrict their searches for content in 35 non-English languages. To date, no requests have been received from beyond the earth's orbit, but Google has a Klingon interface just in case.11. Google has a world-class staff of 9,378 full-time employees known as Googlers. The company headquarters is called the Googleplex located at Mountain View at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway.12. Google translates billions of HTML web pages into a display format for WAP and i-mode phones and wireless handheld devices.13. "I feel lucky" is nearly never used. It was a comfort button which actually takes to the first web page returned by the search results.14. Google use the unique 20%/5% rules. That is ,if at least 20% of people use a feature, then it will be included. At least 5% of people need to use a particular search preference before it will make it into the 'Advanced Preferences'.15. Employees in Google are encouraged to use 20% of their time working on their own projects. That's why we have GMail,Google News and Orkut now.16. Google Groups comprises more than 845 million Usenet messages, which is the world's largest collection of messages or the equivalent of more than a terabyte of human conversation.17. The basis of Google's search technology is called PageRank™, and assigns an "importance" value to each page on the web and gives it a rank to determine how useful it is. However, that's not why it's called PageRank. It's actually named after Google co-founder Larry Page.18. Googlers are multifaceted. One operations manager, who keeps the Google network in good health is a former neurosurgeon. One software engineer is a former rocket scientist. And the company's chef formerly prepared meals for members of The Grateful Dead and funkmeister George Clinton.19.Google’s Orkut is very popular in Brazil and India. It was the brainchild of a Google engineer who was given free reign to run with it.20. In a 2006 report of the world's richest people, Forbes reported that Sergey Brin was #26 with a net worth of $12.9 billion, and Larry Page was #27 with a net worth of $12.8 billion

Catch A Hacker Tip 1: Hackers cover their tracks. Experienced hackers cover them more thorougly, but amateur hackers sometimes leave things behind. Don't expect them to leave any really big evidence behind; expect more of little things here and there you might find surprising. For example, if you're writing a term paper and a black hat hacker accidently saved it when he took a paragraph out- that's suspicious. Where did that paragraph go? Well, for one thing, now you know he was in that area. Check the folders surrounding the file- you might find something.Tip 2: Decipher between the type of hackers that are attacking you. Experienced hackers will have a more in depth look around when they penetrate your system. They won't touch much because they know that that won't add too much to their knowledge. But if you know a hacker's been in, and some files are messed with, and you have a log of someone guessing passwords to a file or something of that sort, its probably some newbie who's just starting out. These are the easiest hackers to catch. They usually get so caught up in thoughts like "I'm in!" that they forget the basics, such as work behind a proxy.My friend was setting up a webserver once. His first time too, and he wasn't to anxious to set up some good software to protect against hackers and viruses. He didn't put up one IDS, and before you know it, the obvious happened. But this time, a newbie had struck. The nice log files showed, bluntly across the screen, multiple instances of a foreign IP address that stood out. Some stupid newbie had tried to login as "uucp" on my friend's XP computer, with a password of "uucp." Well, that's great, but he also had tried the same user/pass combination three times, enough to get himself logged nicely. Even a semi-brainless user with some form of neurological system knows that uucp isn't a default XP account. Again, excitement toiled this hacker's brain, and maybe if he hadn't done that, along with a few other stupid things, he wouldn't have gotten caught. What other things did he do? Well, lets see. He opened 35 instances of MS-DOS. He tried to clean the printer's heads, and he edited a .gif in notepad. Then he uninstalled a few programs and installed some html editor, and replaced four files with the words "14P."He might as well have posted his phone number. In a few days, we had tracked him down to asuburban town in Ohio. We let him go, not pressing any charges, because he had done nothing really damaging and had provided me with an example of a moron for this guide.Tip 3: Don't go crazy if you lose data. Chances are, if it was that important, you would have backed it up anyway. Most hackers nowadays wish they were back in 1989 when they could use a Black Box and having a Rainbow Book actually meant something. Most hackers aren't black hat, they are white hat, and some even grey hat. But in the end, most hackers that are in systems aren't satisfied by looking around. From past experiences, I have concluded that many hackers like to remember where've they been. So, what do they do? They either press delete here and there, or copy some files onto their systems. Stupid hackers (yes, there are plenty of stupid hackers) send files to e-mail addresses. Some free email companies will give you the IP of a certain e-mail address's user if you can prove that user has been notoriously hacking you. But most of the time, by the time you get the e-mail id it's been unused for weeks if not months or years, and services like hotmail have already deleted it.Tip 4: Save information! Any information that you get from a log file (proxy server IP, things like "14P", e-mail addresses that things were sent to, etc.) should be saved to a floppy disk (they're not floppy anymore, I wish I could get out of the habit of calling them that) incase there's a next time. If you get another attack, from the same proxy, or with similar e-mail addresses (e.g: one says Blackjack 123@something.whatever and the other says Black_jack_45@something.znn.com ) you can make an assumption that these hackers are the same people. In that case, it would probably be worth the effort to resolve the IP using the proxy and do a traceroute. Pressing charges is recommended if this is a repeat offender.Tip 5: Don't be stupid. If you've been hacked, take security to the next level. Hackers do talk about people they've hacked and they do post IPs and e-mail addresses. Proof? Take a look at Defcon Conventions. I've never gone to one, but I've seen the photos. The "Wall of Shame"-type of boards I've seen have IPs and e-mail addresses written all over them in fat red, dry-erase ink. Don't be the one to go searching the Defcon website and find your e-mail address posted on the Wall of Shame board!Tip 6: Don't rely on luck. Chances are, sometime or another, you're going to be targeted for an attack. Here you can rely on luck. Maybe they'll forget? Maybe they don't know how to do it? If you think this way, a surprise is going to hit your face very hard. Another way you could stupidly rely on luck is by saying this: It's probably just a whitehat. On the contrary, my friend, it's probably just a blackhat. A blackhat with knowledge stored in his head, ready to be used as an ax. It's your data. You take the chance.

Enabling Right Click On sites Lots of web sites have disabled the right click function of the mouse button... it's really, really annoying. This is done so that you don't steal (via right-click->save picture) their photos or images or any other goodies. Unfortunately, it disables ALL right-click functionality: copy, paste, open in new window.It's easy to change, assuming your using IE 6:Click "Tools"->"Internet Options"Click the "Security" tabClick "Custom Level"Scroll down to the "Scripting" sectionSet "Active Scripting" to "disable"Click "Ok" a couple of times.You'll probably want to turn this back to "enable" when your done... 'cause generally the javascript enhances a website.

Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes like Windows Updates and interrogating your PC etc. Don't you want to get it back for your self? Here is the trick how to get 100% of your available bandwidth.Increase internet speed To get it back:Click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc" without quotes.This opens the "group policy editor" and go to: "Local Computer Policy"Then "Computer Configuration" Then "Administrative Templates" Then select "Network" then "QOS Packet Scheduler"After that select "Limit Reservable Bandwidth".Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab i.e.” By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default."So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO. This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%.

SPEED UP BOOT BY DISABLING UNUSED PORTS.!!You may have tried many tweaks like modifying windows XP start-up applications, prefetches, unload DLLs method, etc. And yes those methods do work for me.I have just accidentally found out another way to give you an extra boost in windows XP's boot performance. This is done by disabling your unused devices inDevice Manager. for example, if you don't have input devices that are connected to one of your USB's or COM ports, disabling them will give you an extra performance boost in booting. Go to Control Panel -> System -> Hardware tab -> device manager Disable devices that you don't use for your PC and then restart.

Speed Up Browsing When you connect to a web site your computer sends information back and forth. Some of this information deals with resolving the site name to an IP address, the stuff that TCP/IP really deals with, not words. This is DNS information and is used so that you will not need to ask for the site location each and every time you visit the site. Although Windows XP and Windows XP have a pretty efficient DNS cache, you can increase its overall performance by increasing its size. You can do this with the registry entries below:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters]"CacheHashTableBucketSize"=dword:00000001"CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180"MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000fa00"MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000012dMake a new text file and rename it to dnscache.reg. Then copy and paste the above into it and save it. Merge it into the registry.DISABLE INDEXING SERVICESIndexing Services is a small little program that uses large amounts of RAM and can often make a computer endlessly loud and noisy. This system process indexes and updates lists of all the files that are on your computer. It does this so that when you do a search for something on your computer, it will search faster by scanning the index lists. If you don't search your computer often, or even if you do search often, this system service is completely unnecessary.

To disable do the following:
1. Go to Start
2. Click Settings
3. Click Control Panel
4. Double-click Add/Remove Programs
5. Click the Add/Remove Window Components
6. Uncheck the Indexing services
7. Click Next

OPTIMISE DISPLAY SETTINGS
Windows XP can look sexy but displaying all the visual items can waste system resources.

2. Click Settings
3. Click Control Panel
4. Click System
5. Click Advanced tab
6. In the Performance tab click Settings
7. Leave only the following ticked:- Show shadows under menus- Show shadows under mouse pointer- Show translucent selection rectangle- Use drop shadows for icons labels on the desktop- Use visual styles on windows and buttonsSPEEDUP FOLDER BROWSINGYou may have noticed that everytime you open my computer to browse folders that there is a slight delay.
This is because Windows XP automatically searches for network files and printers everytime you open Windows Explorer.

To fix this and to increase browsing significantly:
1. Open My Computer
2. Click on Tools menu
3. Click on Folder Options
4. Click on the View tab.
5. Uncheck the Automatically search for network folders and printers check box
6. Click Apply
7. Click Ok
8. Reboot your computer

REMOVE THE DESKTOP PICTURE
desktop background consumes a fair amount of memory and can slow the loading time of your system. Removing it will improve performance.
1. Right click on Desktop and select Properties
2. Select the Desktop tab
3. In the Background window select None
4. Click Ok


DISABLE UNNECESSARY SERVICES
Because Windows XP has to be all things to all people it has many services running that take up system resources that you will never need. Below is a list of services that can be disabled on most machines:

AlerterClipbookComputer BrowserDistributed Link Tracking ClientFast User SwitchingHelp and Support - (If you use Windows Help and Support leave this enabled)Human Interface Access DevicesIndexing ServiceIPSEC ServicesMessengerNetmeeting Remote Desktop Sharing (disabled for extra security)Portable Media Serial NumberRemote Desktop Help Session Manager (disabled for extra security)Remote Procedure Call LocatorRemote Registry (disabled for extra security)Remote Registry ServiceSecondary LogonRouting & Remote Access (disabled for extra security)ServerSSDP Discovery Service - (Unplug n' Pray will disable this)TelnetTCP/IP NetBIOS HelperUpload ManagerUniversal Plug and Play Device HostWindows TimeWireless Zero Configuration (Do not disable if you use a wireless network)Workstation

To disable these services:
Go to Start and then Run and type "services.msc"
Doubleclick on the service you want to changeChange the startup type to 'Disable"
REMOVE ANNOYING DELETE CONFIRMATION MESSAGES
Although not strictly a performance tweak I love this fix as it makes my machine 'feel' faster.
I hate the annoying 'are you sure?' messages that XP displays, especially if I have to use a laptop touchpad to close them.

To remove these messages:
1. Right-click on the 'Recycle Bin' on the desktop and then click 'Properties'
2. Clear the 'Display Delete Confirmation Dialog' check box and click 'Ok'If you do accidently delete a file don't worry as all is not lost. Just go to your Recycle Bin and 'Restore' the file.

Speed up your computer using ReadyBoostIf your system is not acting as fast as you would like, get some additional memory with ReadyBoost.ReadyBoost takes advantage of the fact that flash memory offers lower seek times than the hard disk. The flash drive will be used as a storing location for virtual memory pages of 4KB each. hard drives are faster at reading large amounts of date, whilst a flash drive is faster with smaller amount of data, like the one cached by Windows.How to get additional memory with ReadyBoostConnect your USB flash drive. In the AutoPlay window that pops up, select Speed up my system. Your flash drive will be tested to determine if it meets the requirements. This is because not all of them are as fast as Vista needs them. If it passes the test, the Properties dialog box will be displayed. Specify that you want to Use this device and then choose the amount of space to be reserved for ReadyBoost. Windows will recommend you to use a certain amount of space, but it is up to you if you want to stick to that amount. The amount you will reserve for ReadyBoost cannot be used for storage.You should keep in mind that using ReadyBoost will not actually add RAM memory to your computer, it will only be used as a memory cache.

Data Recovery from Hard Drive recovery from hard drive is in the first place the method or process of retrieving accidentally deleted or inaccessible Data from failed computer hard drives. This method has long been used and offered by many data recovery hard drive companies to help their customers in recovering lost data. And, being a promising technique, data recovery from hard drives is now gaining popularity throughout the world.There are several factors that cause data stored in computer hard drives to be inaccessible. These include a software problem, computer virus, mechanical or electrical malfunction or a deliberate human act. But of these factors, the truth remains that the real threat to hard drives are the people who operate them. As you may know, many of the computer users just ignore data recovery from hard drives. They tend to but other hard drives without first considering effective recovery options like the data recovery from hard drives. Much worse is that most of them tend to use the Fdisk or other hard drive utilities to repair the failed hard drives without knowing exactly what they are doing.Well, contrary to the common belief, data recovery from hard drives is not so easy and storing data on a hard drive is not a hundred percent safe. If you are told that data recovery from hard drive is easy and safe, that is not always the case. A number of data stored in computer hard drives are not always recoverable and the stored information is not always exactly safe.So in order to successfully perform data recovery from hard drive, everyone should first know and follow the rules of successful data recovery from hard drives. The most important rule in data recovery from hard drive is not to write anything more to the affected drive. Note that this data recovery from hard drive rule stands for any situation. However, if you have deleted the files or a partition by accident, creating a partition is not advisable. Data recovery from hard drive experts often suggest that it is necessary in case you have deleted a partition by accident to just leave it blank. And, when the deletion of files occur in the recycling bin that you later on recognize you need, it is better not to save anything to the drive.There is one explanation for that recommendation for a successful data recovery from hard drives, and that is the idea that hard drive does not actually erase data or partition. When you delete the files from the operating system, the files will just be labeled as having been deleted. And, when you save more files on the drive, the system will consider those files labeled as “having been deleted” as being empty space and gladly copy over them. It is in this situation that the chances of a successful data recovery from hard drive are less.So, when problems on data recovery from hard drive take place, the best thing to do in data recovery from hard drive is to ensure that no more data is written to the drive. The data can still be recovered with a little amount of effort to be exerted. After all, data recovery from hard drive is not easy as it may seem.
