Clean Way To Remove Warranty Stickers

2010-01-17T11:58:00.001+08:00

Removing warranty stickers as they said will .. well you know what will happen .. But what if you removed the stickers without ruining it? would be possible? Yes of course! May take some patience and must do it very very slow.

Its my first time and well .. lucky enough to removed it successfully and transferred it on paper wax (the one that comes off on adhesive tapes) I have to get the device inside my newly bought LG Portable Super Multi Drive

So Why Do You Want To Remove The Sticker?
Well for my reason .. Incase I broke the item I disassembled, I can always put the warranty sticker back and safely return and replace them item

Some tools you need?

Paper cutter
Water
Ear buds
Paper Wax - Paper wax is everywhere!!

Steps?

Moisten the side of the sticker using the ear buds then wait for few seconds to start the peeling
Start peeling each side of the sticker (TOP to BOTTOM or LEFT to RIGHT direction) using Paper cutter and do it very very slow until it comes off.. but also keep the sticker wet while peeling using ear buds
Let the sticker dry for a minute
Transfer the sticker on the Paper wax..

and here are some screenshots

Goodluck!

Multiple RDP Session in Windows 7 Professional

2009-11-14T09:27:00.001+08:00

I’ve been searching for something like this for a loooooong time, and I was hoping way back before that it could be also done in Windows XP. So I was happy to I found a super simple one-work-done tutorial for Windows 7.

There’s a different version of tutorial actually base on what build you are using, and I took the chance of trying it for the Build 7100.

Anyway, just to proof that it is working. Am going to use my Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 with Windows Mobile 6.5 Remote Desktop Mobile installed. Below are the screen shots for proof that it is working.

I have 2 user accounts in my Windows 7, one is the default Administrator account, and one was the User account created while installing Windows 7 named “Chevi” (my son’s name).

showing my 2 user accounts	preparing to connect
connecting	cool we’re logged in
and check that out,my laptop is using Adminstrator account while my Windows Mobile is using Chevi account.	and we’re logging off.. :)

The tutorial and installer can be found here. Guide: How to Enable Concurrent Sessions in Windows 7

Scan Negative Films using Show Me Positive + Web Camera (Video Inverted Effect)

2009-09-19T12:55:00.001+08:00

Lastnight,Me and Wife were looking at Negative Films that were never develop and they were taken way way back before she was baby, grade school to high school. It was fun, though you’re looking at the pictures in inverted colors so it was bit of ..

So after that, I thought of something doing what I have thought before, scanning the negative pictures on a flat bed scanner but sadly after scanning, and inverted the colors in Corel, all we can see is cyan and white colors and barely can see that picture. I tried putting the negative film in front of my LCD screen and I thought, “yeah, why not add a little backlight?” hehe, so I scanned the negative film again pressed with my HTC Touch ELFIN with backlight on and the brightness were set to maximum. After scanning, it was awesome! though am not sure why it turned in grayscale but that’s fine at least we saw something and the image were very clear! Though bit of worried in my Canon Pixma MP198 – Lamp!, because everytime she want to look at something, of course I have to do a re-scan.

So wife went to bed and me, thinking an alternative way, and something kicks and hah! why not use my very very awesome give-away web camera! (why awesome? read here..)

So I set it up, run the web cam window, runned File Explorer in my elfin Windows Mobile just to get that white background, inverted the colors in my web cam and hah! TOTALLY ROCKS! but that problem was my finger accidentally keeps on pressing something in File Explorer, so it’s bit of irritating.

And so I thought of creating a small tool that has white static background so I don’t have to worry on accidentally pressing something everytime I flatten the film.

The small tool called:

Show Me Positive
it’s basically a white form that automatically set the orientation to landscape and back to original when closed.

download the tool here
> binaries

And here’s a little video preview

How to? just look at this pictures :) all you need is a bit of creativity! :D

Just invert the colors of your web camera video. Lot of web cam software feature has that :) check the video!

The main idea here really is, you need a BACKLIGHT source at the back of your Negative Film and something that can invert the colors! :D that’s it!

Cost? PRICELESS! ^^

Replace HP520 Laptop Optical DVD Drive with CD-R King V-Series External Optical DVD Drive

2009-08-06T12:45:00.001+08:00

It’s already a month and a half my HP520 DVD Optical Drive was broken and I’d decided to buy an external one and a cheap one just for temporary. CD-R King sells cheap computer devices, you can check there site here.

So earlier this morning, I tried to have a last peek inside my External CD-R King V-Series DVD Optical Drive and I was thinking of just removing and comparing my HP520 DVD.

Heheh! I’d never thought this optical drives are the same, thought they were manufactured with different shapes. Anyway, lucky to have CD-KING V-Series External DVD Optical Drive for Php 1,999.00 replaced my HP 520 DVD Optical Drive.

Here are the screen shots while am having my “Siraniko” mode.

Here’s my HP520 DVD Optical Drive	And here’s my CD-R King V-Series External DVD Drive that I just bought recently
	Disconnect the power and data adaptor

HTC Touch GSM – Windows Mobile 6.5 Reflash Again

2009-07-20T19:53:00.002+08:00

From my last post about my new HTC Touch GSM. I have upgraded it again into a new Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional (Build Version 21921.5.0.40). Get the cooked ROM from here.

Here are some pictures while I was doing the upgrade ..

		don’t forget to remove the SIM and microSD card.

and videos after the upgrade..

Update – August 25, 2009

Man, lot of guys keep sending me an email asking how to upgrade. Anyway, I’ll just update this post for you and HERE’S HOW:

Preparation!! – with exclamation marks

Make sure you fully charged your phone!!
Shut it down! – turn it off, in case you didn’t understand.
REMOVE the SIM and MiniSD card!!
Boot it up! – turn it on.

Upgrading

Make sure you have Active Sync installed in your Windows OS. Am using Windows 7, so I got my Windows Mobile Device Center installed here and hey, make sure you connected your HTC Touch
Goto to this thread and look for ELFIN WWE 6504 BLACK LIGHT and download it and so with the attached file ElfinCustomRUU.zip.
1. Extract ElfinCustomRUU.zip and EW6504BL.rar
2. Copy EW6504BL.NBH in, where ever you extracted the files from ElfinCustomRUU.zip.
3. Test run it, by running ElfinCustomRUU.exe
  1. Follow the instructions
4. "IF" the upgrading STOPS at 3% and telling you this cryptic message:
  ERROR 270 (Update Error - The image file is corrupted):
  1. Go download CID Unlocker, and follow the instructions provided in this thread.
  2. MAKE SURE you done it the same as what the guy said and on the preview!.
  3. If successfull. Do: 2.3.

Please take NOTE!
Elfin Custom Rom might update their ROMS anytime so their download file will change too.

Version Check as of August 26, 2009
ELFIN WWE 6504 M2D

Download File: EM6504BL.RAR

And Another NOTE!
If you got any erros while upgrading your WM, refer here. If you encountered any error message other than “ERROR 270” am sorry, I can not give any information with that anymore.

Please visit http://forum.xda-developers.com for more information.

These steps are proven already and 100% working. Don’t blame me if you BRICKED your phone.

If something went wrong on your Elf/in after reflashing or locked up in "Smart Mobility"

Remove the battery and put it back
Press the Camera Button
Press the Power Button (while still pressing the Camera Button)
Wait for the Bootloader to show up (the 3 colors ..)
Connect the USB connection
and try to reflash again using the procedures I gave about "Upgrading" and try using different cooked ROM!

HTC Touch a.k.a Elf with Windows Mobile 6.5

2009-07-20T00:48:00.001+08:00

I just got my new HTC Touch. Greatest way to get away with Symbian OS + great way to develop mobile applications. :) hey! am a .NET guy ..

I got the black one	This is the default screen

Anyway, the problem is .. Memory is a bit LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW … Camera .. argh .. very low pain-in-the-neck FPS.. anyway, am upgrading it to a new HTC phone .. but not now .. I just got this phone.

Well, my curiosity comes into play again, and I was thinking may be I could do something here like UPGRADING THE OPERATING SYSTEM TO WINDOWS MOBILE 6.5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Need a story? nah … 2 days of research, test, failure, and success .. Finally my Elf is running with Windows Mobile 6.5, memory is amazingly optimized, bit slow at start up, running, and ending a program, *whispers* “Windows Mobile 6.1 is faster” but hey, I like this and I want this.

Upgrading tip: Unlock the CID first before flashing a new cooked ROM. Download the files here.

So if everything is ready, get the cooked ROM from dsixda, Windows Mobile 6.1 and Windows Mobile 6.5, here.

Goodluck! Cheers!

Access Friendster in your Gmail

2009-06-02T06:17:00.001+08:00

Want to access your Friendster in your Gmail? Here’s how ..

Just playing around with Google Gadget. I created a way to access Friendster (in mobile view) inside the Gmail Inbox.
Just make sure you Enabled this gadget (from Gmail Labs)

And click Save Changes button.

Goto Gmail Settings and open Gadgets Tab and add this link:
http://jaysonragasa.110mb.com/GoogleGadgets/Friendster/friendster_gadget.xml

Or here’s the entire code so you can host your own gadget

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Module>
    <ModulePrefs
        title="Friendster for Gmail"
        directory_title="Friendster for Gmail"
        author="Jayson Ragasa"
        author_location="Baguio City, Philippines"
        author_affiliation="ASD Philippines"
        author_email="jaysonr@gmail.com"
        screenshot="http://jaysonragasa.110mb.com/GoogleGadgets/Friendster/friendster_tn.jpg"
        thumbnail="http://jaysonragasa.110mb.com/GoogleGadgets/Friendster/friendster_tn.jpg"
        render_inline="optional" width="280" height="270"
        description="Browse on your Friendster profile, accept comments or message from your friends.">
        <Locale lang="en" country="us" />
    </ModulePrefs>
    <Content type="url" href="http://m.friendster.com" />
</Module>

and that’s it. I already log-in from that preview..

You have your Friendster na!

Cool thing too is you can upload photos directly inside that box! :D

Cheers!

Ping.fm for iGoogle + workaround for GMail

2009-06-02T05:30:00.001+08:00

I just setup my Facebook and Twitter gadgets for Gmail and loving it .. one missing though Ping.fm!! I found a gadget, though works only for iGoogle that’s because you have to setup of course your Application Key which cannot be done using that gadget below in Gmail Labs:

Now if you want to make this thing work in GMail, you have to do some stuff first. One important thing is to (syempre …) host your Google Gadget. An example would be, hosting your XML file in your website or in Google Gadgets Editor.. Don’t ask me where I put it (x.x) d’oh!

Now let’s start:

1. Go get your Ping.fm Application Key, copy&paste it somewhere .. I don’t recommend writing it down ..
2. open any web browser (I don’t recommend using gChrome for this one) and paste this http://ping.fm/google/ping.xml
3. copy the entire XML and we’ll modify that later in this part.
4. hope you have a good XML editor (use Notepad++) and paste the XML you copied.
5. now look for this line “<Content type="url" href="http://ping.fm/google/" />“
6. and to add your application key
“<Content type="url" href=http://ping.fm/google/?app_key=YOURAPPLICATIONKEYHERE />“
7. Save it: any_filename_you_want.XML (MAKE SURE THE EXTENSION IS XML!)
8. then upload it!
9. Enable Add any gadget by URL by Dan P and Dong C in Gmail Labs (hope you know where it is ..)
10. In Gmail Settings, goto Gadgets Tab
11. and paste the address where you uploaded the XML (gadget)

And here’s the final result .. Ping.fm Gadget for iGoogle, now works for Gmail too!

Cheers! Ingat!

Bit.Ly: Safety First, before clicking the bit.ly link

2009-02-24T00:27:00.001+08:00

From my previous post; I wrote a simple article about how to be safe on TinyURL.

Bit.ly offers the same thing.

Here's how to be safe:
Am pretty sure already know how Bit.ly works.
1. If you have the shortened link (eg: http://bit.ly/Is3ZG > This is a link to Three Ways Twitter Security Fails)
2. Copy the randomize character and numbers at the end "Is3ZG"
3. and goto http://bit.ly/info/<the randomize chars and nums> (eg: http://bit.ly/info/Is3ZG)

Now, go ahead, and try it your self. :)

TinyURL: Safety First, before clicking the TinyURL link

2009-02-24T00:10:00.001+08:00

I just got a twit from @frostfire about Three Ways Twitter Security Fails .. and one of the issue there is our friendly TinyURL.

Mike Murray said:
"Twitter "Tweets" have a character limit of 141 characters. Many users enter urls that are too long and which are automatically truncated with a shortening service, such as TinyURL. Users can't tell where the link is going when they scroll over to it.

This makes it much easier for hackers to send out faulty or malicious links."

Well TinyURL.com does provide us to preview the exact shortened link. So If you want safety first, then I guess you have to do something first.

Here's how to be safe:
Am pretty sure already know how TinyURL works.
1. If you have the shortened link (eg: http://www.tinyurl.com/az9pbj > This is a link to Three Ways Twitter Security Fails)
2. Copy the randomize character and numbers at the end "az9pbj"
3. and goto http://preview.tinyurl.com/<the randomize chars and nums> (eg: http://preview.tinyurl.com/az8pbj)

My Desktop - 12/20/2008 update

2008-12-20T14:55:00.001+08:00

i'll start posting / show-off my desktop designs.
I'm a developer, and developer loves simple classic desktop .. and am not that classic, I just love doing some modifications for accessibility but just using XP themes, XP features and some free desktop enhancement tools.

Such as this one:
Windows XP - SP2
Google Desktop and some Gadgets
I'm using HalfBlood Theme
and Winamp!

That's all!

This is cool when Winamp is Maximized

Let's get a little bit closer ...

Start Menu - simple eh?

Quick Launch - my most commonly used programs
Google Chrome, Visual Studio 2008, and EMS SQL Manager for MySQL

Start Menu Toolbars

some running apps in my task bar

and finally my System Tray - if you noticed, I don't have my clock there.. Why? I already have my analog clock gadget on Google Desktop, so why would I need it?

HOWTO: Remove the Orange Home screen from a Nokia N70

2008-12-04T03:36:00.001+08:00

Well, I just got my phone last saturday, I was so happy about it, I got my Nokia N70, but as soon as I looked at it, I got this feeling that am going to have some problems + I saw this ugly looking StandBy Interface, so I got this doubt that this phone might be a China Phone... I tried scanning and trying something to check if it's really a Nokia .. well at least yes.

Anyway about the problem ... After buying it, I got this very very irritating N70 performance .. tried researching on it and found a huge forum sites talking about Orange in N70, and man they were so MAD LIKE HELL!!

Problems in Orange in N70 is:
It slows down your phone processing
Often hung and lost.

So its really really not good having those problems on your mobile phone, because we demand Performance and Reliability.

Well, what the hell am I talking about Orange in N70??
Here's a screen shot of Orange in N70 Stand By Interface


This is the horrible looking Orange Stand By Interface (took that on my webcam, sorry, can't find any reference on the Internet)	And this is what Standard N70 looks like or should I say Standard Symbian Interface looks like.

Saw the difference??

Now I want my phone to look like that!! The Standard Symbian Interface! I was actually planning to take it to the mall and reflash it there, and pay some ..... I don't know how much, but! ... before that, I thought of "I think I have to research more about the problem" and that's it! Keep on researching and found an article, done it, and walla!! everything is back to normal. :)

Now the question is ... How did I do this? I found this great article on the Internet from: Douglas Furus
It really helps me a lot! Thanks Douglas! and Thanks To Namesis

I didn't actually used any special device to re-flash my phone, I just used DKU-2 Cable as instructed from the article.
The trick there is changing the Product Code from NSS, and NSU thought my phone was N70 Music Edition, so it re-write the ROM, writing N70 Music Edition binaries.

NSU (Nokia Software Updater) is a Flashing Software!! LOL! I thought it was just somekind of Software Upgrade not Operating System Upgrade LOL.

Time Starts: 3:34am
Time Ends: 3:58am !!!! :D

Here's what my N70 "Music Edition" looks like right now

With my wife at the background and I'm using iPhone theme.
Cheers!!

To All Computer Cafe's providing games

2008-11-24T09:50:00.001+08:00

While searching a way to Hide/UnHide my desktop icons in Group Policies. I noticed the Windows Components and tried to explore until I saw this functionality sitting there, waiting to be discovered ... and It's a way to disable/enable Windows+X key!!

Microsoft Windows Explained: Turn off Windows+X hotkeys.

Keyboards with a Windows key provide users with shortcuts to common shell features. For example, pressing the keyboard sequence Windows+R opens the Run dialog box; pressing Windows+E starts Windows Explorer. By using this setting, you can disable these Windows+X shortcut keys.

If you enable this setting, the Windows+X shortcut keys are unavailable.

If you disable or do not configure this setting, the Windows+X shortcut keys are available.

I know its so frustrating for gamers when they accidentally pressed the Window Key specially when they're playing on full screen mode. And some Computer Cafe's last resort is to pop out that key on the keyboard. But hey, there's a solution for this, Windows (at least 2000) provides a way to disable the Window Key.

Here's how to do it:

1. Open Group Policy: C:\WINDOWS\system32\gpedit.msc
(here's a screen shot)

2. Expand Adminstrative Templates Folder
3. Expand Windows Components Folder
4. Click Windows Explorer Folder
5. On the right panel, search for Turn off Windows+X hotkeys and double click on it
(here's a screen shot)

(after you doubled click on it)

6. Click Enabled and click OK Button
7. Log Off your computer session or Restart if needed.

and that's pretty much it.

Download MP3s on Jango - Using Fiddler

2008-11-21T09:27:00.001+08:00

Custom radio that plays what you want. Meet others who like what you like

Jango is all about making online music easy, fun and social.

Just type in an artist - and your first station starts playing right away. You'll get the music you want, along with similar favorites of Jango users who share your taste. Customizing your stations further is just as easy. Just add more artists and rate songs that you want to play more or less.

You can also tune in to other people's stations - and they can tune in to yours! In your player, you'll see who's listening to the same music as you, who's listening to your stations, and what your friends are playing.

by: Jango Team

----------------------------------

Ok so another MP3 resource!!! Want some of them .......... ? Sure you do And I do too

So I'm expecting you already have your Fiddler, if you don't have one, download it here.
As far as I know, Fiddler only works on IE and GChrome. If you want to use this in Mozilla Firefox, just look for the proxy settings.

Let's just use IE for the mean time ..

1. Now go to Jango.com and create an account
2. and go find your self an artist. Let's try Jason Mraz

3. Run Fiddler and click the Filters Tab

4. Click the Use Filters and on the Dropdown selection box, choose Show only the following hosts,
and type the following host: cd12.static.jango.com

5. Click any song and click Play

6. and Check your Fiddler!

7. now press Ctrl+U to copy the entire link and download it using any downloader software!! I use FDM (Free Download Manager)

GMail now has THEMES!!

2008-11-21T07:25:00.001+08:00

I knew it! I knew it!!! :D lot of people saids Gmail is sooooooooooooooo pale!! I knew once Gmail implemented themes, the look and feel are gonna be awesome!!

GMail Saids:
Themes allow you to customize the look and feel of your Gmail account. To choose a theme, click a thumbnail on the Themes tab of your Settings page.

In some cases, you can also customize by location. Some themes change during the day, and we use the location information you provide to correctly time these changes with your local sunrise, sunset, and/or weather. If you select one of these themes, you'll see a Country/Region drop-down menu appear. Select the country you want, and then enter a city in the field provided. If you don't enter a city, or enter an invalid one, we'll set your location to the capital city of the country you selected. When you're done, click Save.

Note: Google developed most of the themes, but three were designed by external artists; Phantasea Renewal was designed by Matthew Ferreira, Summer Ocean by Jim Honeycutt, and Cherry Blossom by Vania Sofandi.

Smush it

by Stoyan Stefanov and Nicole Sullivan

Web Development, Performance, Image Optimization

INSTALL SMUSH.IT 0.5 for firefox

Image optimization is an art that not many people master. There are many good image editing tools that allow us to get the best visual result for a certain file size but "under the hood" a lot more optimization can be done.

Smushit.com is a service that goes beyond the limitations of Photoshop, Fireworks & Co. It uses image format specific non-lossy image optimization tools to squeeze the last bytes out of your images - without changing their look or visual quality. You'll get a report of how many bytes you can save by optimizing your images and all the changed images as a single zip for download.

Smush it comes in different flavours:

You can upload a bunch of pictures in your browser
You can provide us with a list of image urls or
You can get a Firefox Extension to optimize the images found on any web page

Saving bytes has never been so easy - you point us in the right direction, and we'll do the rest for you. A ZIP archive with optimized images will be generated for you.

MultiView Reader

2008-10-02T23:24:00.001+08:00

I made a program called MultiView Reader. As you can see on the screen shot, contains a multiple text file viewed in grid view.

hmm.. most of you might be thinking why I made something like this.. Well, this tool actually helped me worked on my project from some client in UK which we need to parse those formula ingredient and different sections on that texts.. I listed that way so I can see the different patterns on the text.

You can preview the actual post and how it will look on your default blog theme!
You can insert objects, such as Pictures and Videos, (those are uploaded automatically! )
Supports multiple blog! in one client!
Can save DRAFT!! so you can publish it later
And you can download plugins! (that's cool!)
and more!! haven't explored them all yet though. Heheh. But this one rocks!

I am more happier now!

whew! another trojan attack.. lucky i survived!

2008-08-27T02:12:00.003+08:00

Thanks to Autoruns from SysInternals

Just downloaded a screensaver recently and enjoying the great 3d solar system view but after a couple of second a balloon pop-up notifying me that my Windows Firewall and Windows Update was disabled! So it got me thinking that the screensaver I've just downloaded was a trojan!! (stupid-stupid-stupid!)

A bit lucky i got my Windows Firewall back but ... I couldn't turn Windows Update on! its like something's monitoring it and keeping it disabled! hmmm.... tricky situation...

After a half hour of hunting ... I thought of using Autoruns to look more deeply in Windows autoruns and saw some weird dll filenames in:

Logon
Explorer - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellExecuteHooks
Internet Explorer - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects
LSA Providers - HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SecurityProviders

I listed them and made a batch file so i don't have to type and delete them manually

----- deltroj.bat -----
@echo off
cls
echo deleting stupid trojans
echo deleting
echo d:\windows\system32\tptdclih.dll
del d:\windows\system32\tptdclih.dll

echo deleting
echo d:\windows\system32\pmnkkcsl.dll
del d:\windows\system32\pmnkkcsl.dll

echo deleting
echo d:\windows\system32\pmnmklbb.dll
del d:\windows\system32\pmnmklbb.dll

echo deleting
echo d:\windows\system32\jmvqbh.dll
del d:\windows\system32\jmvqbh.dll

echo done

pause
---- end ----

oh and btw, those are locked! means you can't delete them while WindowsXP is running or download Unlocker - that should help you delete those files ... or you can boot up in DOS mode ... errrrr .... how? I used BootCD from Hiren

hmmm... so after those stuff, I rebooted and bootup in normal WindowsXP, got some notifications about missing files... that means my OS is clean but I should do some manual clean up ... run Autoruns again and look on the tabs where I found the trojan files and deleted the entry!

and that's it!! :P stupid-me .... and dump-ass-a-hole trojan creator *wink*

Windows Live SkyDrive not available in Philippines? (eh! not for me)

Windows Live SkyDrive

Windows Live SkyDrive, a free online storage service from Microsoft, just got better and bigger. They now provide 5 GB of storage space which is the same as offered by AOL XDrive.

By: Labnol
More reviews from SoftPedia

Anyway, as i've said, not available here in Philippines, well not for me. heheh. I just got it working here in my local machine. Though if you tried, you'll get a response "Not available in your region etc, etc.."

How I done it?
I just tried to login to SkyDrive using our server in UK and and it works! So I just copied the URL and pasted in my local browser and walla! I'm in! Thats it!

One bug i found in SkyDrive is after i pasted the URL and navigated in my local browser, the SkyDrive Desktop appears!! without my personal folders though, so you have to sign-in first before or after!

Cheers!

Hopefully soon, I don't have to do this anymore!

Thanks SkyDrive! Hopefully you'll come up with better plan!
and don't forget, Desktop version please ...

Sorry for all the bad things I've done, but thank you so much for all those forgiveness.

As I promised, if you need help, just tell me. You don't have to buy it, just knock.

I thought you a lot - how earth, people, and nature moves, so don't ever forget those!
You'll going to be needing those ... like every seconds of your life!

Netlog and Fiendster SPAMMERS!

2008-01-27T07:00:00.000+08:00

Have you been spammed lately?? I mean, someone's sent you a personal message or comment asking you to go to their site by clicking the link included in their message. Who want's to click that link?? I mean, yeah, might be someone out there who jut love porn sites. I mean, they just click it, wait for the p age, and after that, you computer go, BOOM!! not really BOOM like exploded, i mean SPYWARES!. Heh! too bad.

Anyway, did i say someone to the spammer? i mean something. That means, the profiles owner is not a Human! This is not a joke, and i'm talking technical. Ok, long story, short. They are called BOTS. NetlogBOT, FriendsterBOT, MySpaceBOT, BOT! BOT! BOT! an ugly, irritating BOT!

How are they created?
Of course, creating or registering a new profile is done with a human interaction. :p

THEN!
The BOT is released, sending cookies to the server acting they are logged in.
The BOT goes to some page where it can look for online members or new members.

The BOT is not choosy!
So, it goes through all those members, open their profile, and the BOT starts dumping crap!
And the bot will do the same thing to the others, and others, and others. And make the master satisfied and happy. :p

Ok. End of story, hope you guys learned something with this bit of information. I don't want to go deep, creating video or a flow, other might get confused, just want to give you a basic idea on how's and why's.

Show Hidden or System Files & Folders

2007-12-02T01:37:00.000+08:00

1. Click Start Button
2. Click Control Panel
3. Look for Folder Options and click it

(in Folder Option Window)

4. Click View Tab (just after the General and before the File Types)
(in Advance Settings:)

5. Click "Show hidden files and folders"
6. Uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types" (Worm's always hides them self)
7. Uncheck "Hide protected operating sytem files (Recommended)" (Worm's always create "autorun.inf" sytem file which is also hidden)
8. Read and click Yes Button.
9. Click Ok Button

OK! that's the basic setup for you to see what is what inside your folder or your Removable Drive.

How will you know if your Removable Drive ("USB" | "flashdrive") has worm (virus)

2007-12-02T00:39:00.000+08:00

If you're just a standard user of Windows Operating System, Basically you don't!

One way of doing it is to:
(important!)
1. Read the difference between file types (specially EXE or COM)
---
(make sure you have a clean Windows Operating System "no virus!")
(this is very basic)

Read

"Show Hidden or System Files & Folders"

How those crazy worms get inside your computer?? and how to prevent it.

Now do this as a PRACTICE!!

If you try to insert your Removable Drive. Always click the Cancel Button from the Window which was looking for autoruns.

Then click Cancel Button again from the Window which was asking you on what to do with your Removable Drive.

Now if you want to open your Removable Drive, using Windows Explorer or in My Computer

DON'T DOUBLE CLICK YOUR REMOVABLE DRIVE ICON!!! or if you renamed it in your own name, just dont!

Click "Folders" button in Windows Explorer or My Computer Toolbar (just after the "Search" button) so you'll notice a the Left Panel which was the Folder View. Click your Removable Drive from there!

ALWAYS DO THAT! as i've said, DO IT AS A PRACTICE!

Why do you have to do that??
Because if you double-click your Removable Drive (not in Folder View Panel) Windows will automatically look for
"autorun.inf" system file.

Where can you find the "autorun.inf"
(Remember to click your Removable Drive in Folder View Panel.)
Now in your Removable Drive.
You will see a faded "autorun.inf" file (which means, it was hidden or system file).

Inside the "autorun.inf" file
Basically "autorun.inf" can also be found in CDs such as Installers.
This are Auto-Executed if you inserted and loaded. But don't worry, it's safe!
Well, how will you know if it's safe!?

This is what's inside the "autorun.inf" in Installer CDs (Windows Office 2003)
[autorun]
OPEN=SETUP.EXE /AUTORUN
ICON=SETUP.EXE,1

shell\configure=&Configure...
shell\configure\command=SETUP.EXE

shell\install=&Install...
shell\install\command=SETUP.EXE

Well the basic settings
[autorun]
OPEN=SETUP.EXE
ICON=SETUP.EXE,1
-----------
OPEN - Windows will look for setup.exe and run it
ICON - If you notice for example you insert Windows XP Setup CD, the CD Icon changes? ok. cool

Now what's inside in the "autorun.inf" from the Removable Drive that has worm in it
let's say RavMonEx.exe
[autorun]
OPEN=RavMonEx.exe

Thats basically it.
But don't worry, Windows will not Auto-Execute the "autorun.inf" in your Removable Drive. BUT, it will be execute once you double click your Removable Drive.

Been doing this for a looong time and also thought to others,
and we scored Zero Worms!

WHAT's THIS ALL ABOUT?
Well, one thing i noticed.
When we are always browsing for our favorite File or Folder in Windows Explorer,
like, your Documents, Pictures, Folders, etc. and you always open it like
everyday. Isn't it frustrating specially when your File or Folder is way down deep?

So i thought of creating this tool for you to help you a bit.

Windows offers adding your Folder in Windows Explorer
"Add to Favorites" in Favorites Menu

BUT NOT FILES!
So this script does and also Folders

THIS IS A SCRIPT!
Yeah! this is a script, so you are free to take a look at the code and analyze it
for your self. Research on the statements, read some Registry Guide!

so you don't have to worry about anything such as;

"This might be a Worm"
"This might be a Trojan"
etcetera!

but take a NOTE!
This was written for one specific task!
So if you try to change the code without any advice from me and your OS freaked out,
that's not my problem anymore.

RELIABILITY
This has been tested in Windows XP, and I'm using it too!

INSTALLING
1
Run the "Setup Registry.reg" file by
* double clicking it
* or Right click and click Merge
Wait for confirmation window and click Yes Button

2
Copy "CreateNewFolder.bat" and "CreateShortcut.vbs" in "C:\"

HOW TO USE IT
Right click any file or folder,
and you'll see the "Add to Favorites Folder"

How to get FREE access to IMEEM site!

2007-11-17T17:08:00.000+08:00

well, the main reason why i've done this because i was trying to look for BAILE song from GLOC 9.

so i tried asking uncle google for it and the first rank was the IMEEM, which is i think its popular. So! i clicked it, load the page.. then suddenly.. a dialog blocking my access to imeem track page "You must log in to visit this track"???

The cool thing about this is, the dialog was inside or included in the page (NOT A WINDOW!) so! i was thinking if I.... or just live it alone..

Well i choosed "I" - means I WANT TO GET INSIDE!

first thing you must have is
Mozilla Firefox (WebBrowser)

then download the FireBUG add-on for Mozilla Firefox
Get FireBUG here <-- click that

download it and restart your Mozilla Firefox browser.

well that's all you need to do for now...

well one thing you must have is knowledge in HTML.. well, i don't really think its necessary because you just have to click this and press that, click this and press that work. so i'll try my best to give you an instruction.

LETS START!

lets take the BAILE track page for an example:
Rochelle Panganilinan Baile (feat. Gloc 9) <-- click that again and wait until the dialog "You must log in to visit this track" pops out and darken the page background.

so everything is cool!?

Ok, here's the video. Watch it!

Video

:) feel free to leave your comment.

Thank you!

in respect with FireBUG
FireBUG is not a hacking tool!!!! this tool is intended only for debugging web page.
Why did i use it?? well, for some reason.. "Because i want to!" :D

have a great day!

WHAT's THIS ALL ABOUT?
Sometimes (for slow computers) waiting for the NEWs Sub Menu in Explorers File or Folder
Context Menu can be painfull. Due to, too much items loading from registry.

Same issue way back in Windows 98
(3x slower even if its loading only i think 11 items?)

So i thought of creating this tool (again) for you to help you a bit.

THIS IS A SCRIPT!
Yeah! this is a script, so you are free to take a look at the code and analyze it
for your self. Research on the statements, read some Registry Guide!

so you don't have to worry about anything such as;

The decision, has been decided (toingks!)

2007-08-17T23:56:00.000+08:00

Well, i bought a phone Nokia 5200! Its a nice phone though, i like it enough! it has wide Audio Player support, an FM radio (which, i regularly use), Video Player, Java Compatible, can run SWF files and lot of great feature, never mine the camera, just a VGA, though i love taking pictures, but since i got this.. well.. anyway Corel is there to enhance it :)

well now, at least i have an internet connection using this phone as my modem or if im out traveling i can use GPRS connection to check my email and chat using JavaME apps such as GoogleMail and Talkonaut for gTalk.. and other office applications such as DocViewer, MiniExcel, and PDFViewer and of course some games :) well perhaps i should post some links on the mobile apps i used.. (well some other time).. and yeah right now am using it as my modem. Its kinda slow, but.. its ok, "at least"

Lots of things happening right now.. thats why i cant get some free time to post something here..
well that things are
Development Projects
School Stuff ( i have to make an exam for the midterms examination :p )
some problems of course...
some other great things too :D

so, i guess that's all for now.. :)

just an update

A decision i have to make (Phones) :) Who will be the lucky one?

Chikka Tip: Send free SMS over and over and over ….

2007-06-08T13:34:00.000+08:00

Original Poster "ka edong"

post URL: click here

Ever encountered the “anti-spam” feature of Chikka that says your recipient needs to reply to your Chikka account for you to continue sending free text to your recipient? Here’s a work-around…

Remove your friend’s name from your buddy list
Add your friend’s name to your buddy list

Voila! Chikka thinks your buddy is a new name and you get a fresh set of free SMS message you can send to the same old buddy.

I got this tip from former office-mate, Katherine (o-ha!), our official Chikka Babe!
