Labels: registry hacks
Have you ever needed to repeatedly access a folder that is nested deep inside a giant hierarchy of folders? Sure, you can always create a shortcut to that folder, but did you know you can actually assign a drive letter to a folder instead? Today we'll show you how to do this.
This ability has existed in Windows via the subst command for quite a while, so this will also work for you XP users as well.
Map a Drive Letter the Easy Way
The easiest way to assign a drive letter to a folder is to use a simple utility called Visual Subst, which gives you a nice graphical interface to assign drive letters, but also does something that the command line version can't… you can set your virtual drives to apply again at startup.
You can download and run the utility without needing to install it, and then simply use the Browse button to select your path, and click the green plus symbol after choosing the drive letter.
At this point you should see the drive letter show up in the list. (Note that you can delete it by highlighting and choosing the red X icon, or change the path / letter by using the Save button.
If you want to save the drives, you'll want to select the "Apply virtual drives on Windows startup" option.
Now when you open up your Computer window, you should see the new drive show up in the list.
The contents of the new M: drive will actually be the contents of my desktop folder.
Download Visual Subst from ntwind.com

google talk freezes when using show current music track using winamp 5.5
0 comments Posted by Harsh at 9:37 AMGoogle talk freezes when "show current music track"
At times when you use Gtalk with Winamp 5.5 version and set the current status in GTak to show current music track gtalk freezes. here is a solution to this problem.
Whenever you select the Show my current music track, Google talk either freezes or stops responding. This is actually a technical issue with Google talk or Winamp which is yet to be discovered but many users who have upgraded to Winamp 5.5 are facing this problem, so one of simple resolution for fixing this bug :
The solution is:
Step 1: Go to the root directory of Winamp where it is installed which is usually in C:\Program Files\Winamp\
Step 2: Select Tools->Folder Options->View (Tab) and uncheck the hide extensions for known file types and click Ok.
Step 3: Now create an empty file (Right click the mouse -> New -> Text document), so the default file would be like “New Text Document.txt”.
Step4: Rename the above file to “winamp.m3u” and save.
Step5: Close Winamp and Google Talk. Now open again and Your Show Current music track status should work

Sysinternals Desktops v1.0 allows you to create up to four virtual desktops and to organize your applications on the different desktops. Browse the web on one desktop, read your e-mail on a second desktop and organize your work applications (Word, Excel, Photoshop, etc.) on another desktop.
You can easily switch between the different desktops using the tray icon with preview or using configurable hotkeys.
What makes Desktops different from other virtual desktop applications is the way it has been implemented. Desktops uses a separate Windows desktop object, running its own explorer.exe instance, for each desktop, rather than faking virtual desktops by hiding applications.
Application windows are bound to one desktop object when they are created. This approach has some advantages and disadvantages:
Advantages:
- Desktops is lightweight and very fast
- Desktops actually works and seems bugfree. All other tools I've tried had issues with inconsistencies between desktops (application windows showing up on the wrong desktop, etc.)
- No installation required. Desktops can be run from a USB key.
Disadvantages:
- Applications cannot be moved from one desktop to another
- Most tray icons are only visible on the first desktop
- Switching between applications using Alt+Tab only works on the first desktop
- The same desktop background for all desktops
- Vista Aero is only available on the first desktop
Although the list of disadvantages is longer than the list of advantages, Sysinternals Desktops v1.0 is one impressive tool. But I didn't expect anything else from Sysinternals.
It is lightweight, fast, reliable and easy to use. Make sure to give it a try. You'll be impressed!
One remark:
If you use Comodo Firewall Pro with Defense+, make sure to add Desktops as a trusted application BEFORE creating a second desktop or you will end up with a deadlock situation: Desktops will try to create a new desktop, but Comodo blocks this attempt on the first desktop.
Sysinternals Desktops runs on Windows Vista SP1 and Windows XP SP3.
You can download Sysinternals Desktops here.

I have always wanted this kind of software. I have thousands of mp3 songs packed in various partitions of my hard disk. I have collected these songs from several places and keep them storing, but the problem while augmenting my collection is that I am never sure whether I have copied the set of songs before or not, so I just copy them irrespective of the fact that they may be already present. The consequence is that my hard disk space is almost filled with duplicate files
That is why I always wanted a software that could compare the contents of two folders and remove the duplicate elements.
File Comparator is a program which compares any files by their contents. This utility allow you to quickly compare contents of any files in specified folders, and allow to show files which contain same data.

Javascript to unmask password on web pages
Here comes javascript which is tested on Firefox & IE!
javascript: alert(document.getElementById('Passwd').value);
Just copy above code and paste it in ur browsers address bar (navigation bar or url bar).
javascript: alert(document.getElementById('Passwd').type='text');
On hitting enter you will see a prompt, just ignore it and look at screen… The password field will be unmasked any now
Try following code in the same way! This does not work with antique IE 6.0 and with release of firefox 2.0, I did not bothered to give IE 7.0 a try!
This will again prompt password like above!
javascript: function getElementsByAttribute(oElm, strTagName, strAttributeName, strAttributeValue){ var arrElements = (strTagName == "*" && oElm.all)? oElm.all : oElm.getElementsByTagName(strTagName); var arrReturnElements = new Array(); var oAttributeValue = (typeof strAttributeValue != "undefined")? new RegExp("(^|\\s)" + strAttributeValue + "(\\s|$)") : null; var oCurrent; var oAttribute; for(var i=0; i< ocurrent ="" oattribute ="”" oattribute ="”="> 0){ if(typeof strAttributeValue == “undefined” || (oAttributeValue && oAttributeValue.test(oAttribute))){ arrReturnElements.push(oCurrent);}}} return arrReturnElements; } alert( getElementsByAttribute(document.body, “input”, “type”, “password”)[0].value);
And this will unmask password filed like above!
javascript: function getElementsByAttribute(oElm, strTagName, strAttributeName, strAttributeValue){ var arrElements = (strTagName == "*" && oElm.all)? oElm.all : oElm.getElementsByTagName(strTagName); var arrReturnElements = new Array(); var oAttributeValue = (typeof strAttributeValue != "undefined")? new RegExp("(^|\\s)" + strAttributeValue + "(\\s|$)") : null; var oCurrent; var oAttribute; for(var i=0; i< ocurrent ="" oattribute ="”" oattribute ="”="> 0){ if(typeof strAttributeValue == “undefined” || (oAttributeValue && oAttributeValue.test(oAttribute))){ arrReturnElements.push(oCurrent);}}} return arrReturnElements; } ; alert( getElementsByAttribute(document.body, “input”, “type”, “password”)[0].type=”text” ) ;
Above scripts successfully tested on gmail, yahoo, hotmail, rediff login pages! Orkuts login pages have frames so the above may fail! In fireox you can also right-click on any frame and can open that frame separately in different window or tab and then can use any of above script!
Also any password field can be unmasked using DOM Inspector in firefox! Please don’t make false assumption that firefox is insecure! There is a feature called “master password” in firefox! That will protect your passwords against all javascript, DOM Inspectors, etc!
Who needs revelation (at least for web pages) … Enjoi!!!
Related Link:
Inspect Element with DOM Inspector
(Please note that the DOM Inspector must be installed. (Select “Developer Tools” during custom setup of Firefox)
Click here to download Firefox!
Credits: Thanx to Robert Nyman for getElementsByAttribute! I wish a function like this should be included in standard!

The default speed of the Start Menu is pretty slow, but you can fix that by editing a Registry Key. Fire up the Registry Editor and navigate to the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Control Panel \ Desktop \ MenuShowDelay
By default, the value is 400. Change this to a smaller value, such as 0, to speed it up.
If this doesn't work for some reason, then you might try the following: Navigate to Display Properties then Appearance then Effects and turn off the option titled Show menu shadow. You will get much better overall performance.

By default, the Windows XP Recycle Bin sits at the bottom right of the desktop, just above the tray notification area and system clock. If you've got many floating windows open, however, it's possible to obscure the Recycle Bin and make it impossible to drag files and folders there for deletion. However, you can automatically hide all of those open windows during a drag operation. The first time it happened, I thought it was a fluke. But it's not. Instead, it's a cool hidden feature of XP.
Here's how it works: Make sure a bunch of windows are open on the screen, with at least one of them hiding the Recycle Bin. Then, find a file or group of files you'd like to drag to the Recycle Bin. Pick up the files with the mouse and move them to the lower right of the screen. As you reach the bottom area of the screen, pass the mouse cursor over a blank area of the task bar, hover there for an instant, and the open windows all minimize, leaving the Recycle Bin available to accept the dragged files. Good stuff. This tip also works when windows are maximized, assuming the file(s) you want to delete are visible in one of the available windows.

Cuil - the next bIg thing
Welcome to Cuil—the world’s biggest search engine. The Internet has grown. We think it’s time search did too.
This new web tool cuil is pitched as the world’s latest, largest and swiftest search engine. Cuil was launched on Monday ( 28-7-2008 ) with 120 billion pages or ‘thrice’ the volume of the Google index.
Cuil is expected to search more web pages than Google and 10 times as many as the search engine of Microsoft.
Where Cuil scores over rivals is the way it indexes the web and handle queries by users. Both are costly operations, but Cuil claims to have found a way to slash those costs.
As a business proposition, Cuil is obviously a big bet … No other search engine has come close to entering the public consciousness like this. Of course, Cuil doesn’t have to trounce Google on day one. It took Google quite some time to surpass Alta Vista and Yahoo in the search wars
