Windows XP is too darn slow by default in browsing network and shares. Each time we open up Entire network, or type \\MyPC, Windows attempts to look for shared printers and scheduled tasks. You can disable it by applying the following to the registry.Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RemoteComputer\NameSpace][-

Yahoo! Messenger is a great instant messenger client. Well, not when it has annoying advertisements shown at the bottom of the screen. I don't mind seeing ads on websites, but I really hate adware, especially when its something that I use almost all day. Fortunately, there is a solution for almost every problem. Here's a batch file (.bat) that you can run to remove advertisements from Yahoo

If you are getting an error similar to the following while compiling a wxWidgets application in debug mode with Visual C++ 6.0, it turns out to be a compiler switch problem. I saw this issue being discussed in a lot of forums but none of their solutions really worked out for me. Well, I had to spend a lot of time to find the solution, I thought I'd share because this one ruined a lot of my time!

I have a Yahoo! free account, but I hate to go to their web page and see the advertisements each time I want to check mail. Everytime I want to check and see the new mails, I have to type in www.yahoo.com in my browser, enter my user name and password, click sign-in, then I have to goto Inbox; all this while Yahoo keeps irritating me, wasting my precious bandwidth with its banner size

The following shell script will assist you in recovering an ADSL user name - password pair stored in an ADSL router. The script was tested to run on Knoppix 3.2 and 4.0 and should work on other distros as well. However, the devices that can be used with the script, I leave it for you to experiment with :)Just copy the script to any file, lets say adsl.sh in your $HOME directory, then execute the

Lost and forgotten passwords can be really tiresome when you realize you cannot retrieve them anymore. This can be the situation if you have a forgotten ADSL account password -- you can set a new one anytime, but often you are not permitted to know the old one.Broadband and cable connections that use ADSL technology often uses a pair of user name and password strings to authenticate the end user
