Wherever You Go, Carry Your PC With You (But How??)

Apr 27, 2009 0 comments

You will be quite amazed to view the heading but how can you actually carry your PC with you. This post will give you the easiest way to install almost every application on your USB 2.0 storage device, such as iPods, USB flash drives, portable hard drives, USB-enabled cell phones, and USB-enabled digital cameras. MojoPac turns any USB 2.0 into a portable computing environment. MojoPac is a software virtulization product that supports popular applications such as Firefox and Microsoft Office, and it is also high performance enough to run popular PC Games such as World of Warcraft and Half-Life 2.
The best part of MojoPac is that  you can't access the host PC's disks while you are in MojoPac space, but while you're in the host PC you can write to your MojoPac drive easily.
To initially setup the MojoPac device, the user runs the installer and selects a USB device attached to the system. Once MojoPac is installed, it creates an executable in the root of that device along with an autorun file that gives the user the option of starting the MojoPac environment automatically when the device is plugged in. Once this application is started, a new Windows Desktop (with its own wallpaper, icons, shell, etc.) is started up in the virtualized MojoPac environment. Any application that runs inside this environment runs off the USB device without affecting the filesystem of the host. A user installs most applications (including Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop, Firefox) on the portable storage device by simply running the installer inside this environment. The user can switch between the host environment and the MojoPac environment by using the MojoBar at the top of the screen. Once the user is done with the applications, they just exit out of MojoPac and eject the USB device.
Now the things why I am a fan of MOJOPAC are :

  • For the gamers, it's quite like a boon. They can carry their games wherever they go and they don't need to install each time on every computer.
  • Your portable device will now be password protected.
  • It can carry a lot of applications like gtalk, yahoo messengers, adobe photoshop etc. for you.

Create Dummy Folder and Protect Pen Drive from Viruses

Apr 25, 2009 3 comments

The protection of pen drive from viruses,trojans etc. is a matter of utmost importance as they carry a lot of useful stuff in a small space. But if you are using your pen drive on public computers there are high chances that you can caught by viruses. So what will you do? Read this post for the best possible solution that I found while surfing on net.

Well the basic concept that why virus attack the pen drives is that they contain some amount of free space which makes the virus to attck and copy itself in the drive and harm the executable files. So we are going to use only this concept, that is, we will fill up all the space with a dummy file. To do this, you have to use a command known as fsutil. To know more about this command, click here.
                                       FOR WINDOWS XP USERS

  • Know the free space of your pen drive by right clicking--> properties.
  • The highlighted rectangle is your free space.
  • Then open the command prompt and write the following code


    fsutil file createnew J:\Dummy 1440182272.
    (NOTE: You must change the drive letter and space according to you)
  • The file will be created and you will see the following in the command prompt.







                                              FOR VISTA USERS

If you are following the above steps then you are bound to get an error message that administrator privilages are required.





To avoid this just run the command prompt as an administrator by right clicking it.

How To Reduce Page Load Time

Apr 12, 2009 3 comments

All the webmasters would agree that page load time should be as low as possible. This post will focus on HOW TO REDUCE THE PAGE LOAD TIME which is a key factor to increase the functionality of the blog or site. An optimal page load time should be less than 5 seconds. Without wasting any more time, let me give you top 10 possible ways to reduce the page load time:

1) AVOID FLASH CONTENT
Flash content is header or titles should be avoided as they take a long time to load.

2) MAKE YOUR HOMEPAGE AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE
Another major point that you must consider is to make your homepage simple. By simple I mean to say that it should not contain any unnecessarily flash content and heavy images.



3) REDUCE THE SIZE OF IMAGES
Size of the images should be kept low. Try using gif rather than png or jpeg. Also if possible, make your blog posts continue reading enabled (which you can learn from here) and try not to show large or animated images on your front page.

4) LIMIT YOUR BLOGROLL
You should limit your blogroll to 10-15 links only. Large number of links will make your blog take a larger time to load.

5) AVOID USING TOO MANY JavaScripts
Excessive loading of javascript can increase your page loading time.Technorati and other commenting systems scripts use these kind of scripts.

6) AVOID USING LARGE AMOUNT OF WIDGETS
Widgets take a lot of time to load. You must minimize their usage.

7) AVOID SCRIPT SOURCING TO OTHER WEBSITES/BLOGS
If you have placed a link or an image by loading javascript from that site, it will consume a large number of time in linking to those websites. This must be minimized.

8) AVOID AJAX
Just like javascript, ajax is also a cause for slow loading of web pages.

9) AVOID LARGE and SLOW LOADING GRAPHICS
Clearly understandable from the heading itself, these increase the page load time.

10) CHOOSE A SIMPLE TEMPLATE
Chosing a simple and smooth template will make your page load faster. Avoid pop-ups and limit the number of widgets.


I am sure if you will follow thw above steps, you will be able to reduce your page load time. If you are facing any problems in any of the above mentioned points, you can use the comments form.

Customize Your Send to Menu

Right clicking on any folder and then pointing to Send to menu reduces our job of doing Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V to some extent only. We have a limited number of options by default like Bluetooth device, Compressed zipped folder, desktop, documents and mail recipients. But many of you don’t know that the send to menu is also customizable.

To do this just type the following code in the search bar of Windows Vista Start Menu without the quotes

“%UserProfile%\\Appdata\\Roaming\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Sendto”

Once you type that in, you should arrive at the Send To folder. Here you can modify the menu as you choose by deleting icons you don’t want, and adding Shortcuts of the items you want. For example if you want that the folder ‘download’ to be right there in send to menu, just create a shortcut of ‘download’ in that just as shown below.







And now my send to menu looks like this.

Apr 7, 2009 0 comments


Spam, also known as junk e-mail, involves nearly identical messages sent to numerous recipients by e-mail. A common synonym for spam is unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE). Definitions of spam usually include the aspects that email is unsolicited and sent in bulk. "UCE" refers specifically to unsolicited commercial e-mail.In this post, I will give you the best 10 tips to reduce spam in your inbox.

  1. Don't Publish Your Email-id On Your Website
    Publishing your email-id on your website or blog means making your inbox open for all. This should be discouraged.
  2. Make a Separate Email-id For Social Connectivity
    We all are engaged with different forums and social networking sites. But you should not sign/register to them using a single email-id. I will reccomend you to make a separate email-id meant specifically for this purpose.
  3. Don't Hesitate to Report Spam
    One should not encourage spammers by not reporting their mails as spam. Whenever you get an unwanted mail, immediately report them spam.
  4. Block unwanted Sender
    You should block the spammer to avoid junk mails entering the inbox.
  5. Don't Respond To Any Unknonwn Mail
    responding to the unknown mails will help the spammer to grow its network.

  6. Don't Deal With Companies That Spam
    You should avoid dealing with companies or websites that spam a lot.
  7. Don't Use Simple Email-id's
    Simple email-id's are more prone to get the huge amount of spam. Email-id's like yourname@gmail.com should be avoided.
  8. Filter Your Inbox
    Always apply a filter to inbox mailing preferences.
  9. Avoid Sending Bulk Emails Using TO or CC
    Charity begins at home. You should also avoid sending bulk mails .
  10. Change Your Email-id
