Welcome To My Insane Planet

She Je Boshe Ache / He is sitting away.She Je Boshe Ache is currently one of the most popular Bangladeshi song out there. Performed by Arnob aka Ornob (Bangla). It was the original song of the natok (Bengali drama) Off Beat starring the members of Black and Joya Ahsan (good song but unwatchable natok). I thought I'd do a translation of it.

Note: She je boshe ache, literally means he is sitting. But it can also be interpreted as he is sitting away, he is just sitting there, he is just sitting. Excuse my amature translations, as I often prefer to preserve the tone than do a literal translat

System BIOS Changes

One of the first places to help speed boot time in Windows is to makesome simple changes to the system BIOS. The BIOS or Basic Input/OutputSystem is a set of instructions and commands built into the motherboardthat allows the computer to know what type of hardware is connected andhow to communicate with that hardware.  You'll first have togain access to the BIOS setup screen to make any changes. Do not makechanges to the system settings in the BIOS lightly, one mistake canrender the computer unbootable and cause more problems than its worth.For this reason, do not attempt making changes to the system BIOSunless you are willing to accept the risk along with it. With thatsaid, you'll want to follow the directions below and make some simplechanges to speed up the boot process.

1) You must start with the computer completely off, not in sleep orhibernation mode. Then turn the computer on.

2) Enter the system BIOS screen by the manufacturers suggestion.Depending on the computer, this may involve pressing the DEL key,pressing F1, Pressing F10, holding down CTRL-ALT-S, or a variety ofother keystrokes to get to the BIOS screen. For a more complete list ofkeystrokes to enter the BIOS screen, visit MichaelSteven's page on thesubject.

3) Once in the BIOS setup, look for a BOOT menu and select it with yourkeyboard arrow keys, Tab, and Enter.

4) In most modern BIOS screens, you'll find an option for Quick Boot.Enable this to skip memory tests and other minor Power On Self Tests(POST).

5) Find an option for Boot Device Priority next, and change the firstboot device to be the hard drive. Changing this option will speed upthe boot process, but it will also not allow the computer to boot froma floppy disk or CD-ROM. If booting from anything other than the harddrive is important to you, please skip this step. If later on, you needto boot from a CD-ROM, simply re-enter the BIOS setup and make theCD-ROM the first boot device.

6) Choose the option to Exit and Save Changes and the computer willreboot.

There are other options in the BIOS to speed up boot time such aschoosing the exact settings for your hard drive, and disabling AUTODETECT of hard drives and other media. However I am skipping thosechanges and leaving them for a later discussion.

Changes to Windows Settings

The next group of changes to consider will be to the many Windowssettings. We will use a handy tool called the System ConfigurationUtility to accomplish most of these changes. Follow the steps below toopen and use this tool.

Startup Tab Changes

1) Click on Start, Run and type MSCONFIG and press Enter

2) Click on the STARTUP tab in the System Configuration Utility to viewall the items that begin on Startup. An example is shown below.

Each item on the Startup tab that is checked loads immediately afterWindows starts. If there are lots of items here, this will slow downthe boot time for Windows considerably. Each of these items can betoggled on or off simply by using the checkmark box to the left of theitem.

The column directly to right of the checkmark is the Name of theprogram, while the next column over is the location on the hard driveor other device of the file. Finally the last column shows where in thecomputer the file is started from. This location could be in theregistry as is the case with all the locations that begin with HKLM orHKCU, or it could be in the Windows Startup folder found under ALLPROGRAMS in Windows XP.

You can examine each of these startup items and uncheck any that arenot necessary. How do you know which ones are not necessary? Well, inmost computer configurations, you'll want drivers running for yourgraphics or video controller and sound card, and most likely anantivirus and firewall running. Other startup items are usually extrasthat could be eliminated from boot up. To discover what a particularitem is used for, jot down the name for the item and go over to a sitecalled Process Library,type in the name of the process and click Find. This is a very handytool for discovering which startup items are truly needed.

When you are done modifying the checkmarks to the Startup tab, click OKand you'll be asked to reboot the system.

Windows Services Changes

Once the computer is rebooted, click on Start, Run and type MSCONFIGand press Enter again. This will reopen the System ConfigurationUtility. Click on the Services tab, then click on the option at thebottom called "Hide All Microsoft Services" to see what unnecessaryWindows services are running that can be removed. Generally speaking,you want services related to your video/sound cards and antivirus orfirewall programs left running. Other services may not be essential andcan be removed. Remember to only remove unessential services or yourisk experiencing boot problems. Use Google to search for informationon unfamiliar services. Another good resource is BlackViper's Strange Services page.

Hardware Changes to Increase Boot Time

Adding more Memory (RAM)

Other than upgrading the motherboard and CPU, you can generallyincrease the amount of RAM in your computer to make it load programsand applications faster and provide a more enjoyable computingexperience. You'll want to check your motherboard to make sure you haveavailable slots and the maximum amount of RAM you can add to yourparticular motherboard.

Replacing your Hard Drivewith a Faster RPM Drive

If you have a slower hard drive such as a 5400 RPM or slower, you maywant to consider upgrading to a faster 7200 RPM

hard drive. The difference in RPM speed will generally be quitenoticeable.

Changing to Static IP

If your computer is connected to a local area network that you controland you have a DHCP server enabled on your router, during the bootprocess the computer queries the network for a valid IP address. Youcan shave seconds off your boot time by assigning a valid IP address toyour computer instead of using DHCP to assign it. To setup a Static IPfor your computer, follow these directions.

1) Click on Start, Run

2) Type NCPA.CPL and press Enter to open the Network Connection ControlPanel

3)  Right-click on the Local Area Connection and chooseProperties

4)  Click on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties

5) You should see a screen similar to the one below. Fill in yourstatic IP, subnet, default gateway, and DNS server information andclick OK. If you aren't sure of your IP ranges on your router, consultyour router manual or a friend that is more knowledgeable in networkingterminology. Again, this is an optional item and does not necessarilyneed to be accomplished. Using DHCP is fine, although you sacrifice afew seconds for an IP to be assigned to from the network.

Switching fromMaster/Slave to Cable Select

In a recent article, I talk about how changing the configuration on thehard drive from Master to Cable Select reduced the boot time on thisparticular machine by 2 minutes.

Other Windows Performance Tips

Reduce the Number ofFonts installed

Every font that is installed in Windows has to load when Windowsstarts. The more fonts you have installed, the slower Windows loads.Although you can safely have around 1000 fonts loaded in Windows, Ilike to keep my font list closer to 300-500 or fewer if possible. Thereare certain fonts that are definitely required by Windows, so becareful in removing any fonts from your computer unless you know theyare not needed. Fonts such as Verdana,Arial,Trebuchet, Tahoma, Tahoma,Times New Roman, MS Sans Serif, and Courier New should be left on yoursystem. Follow the directions below to remove extra fonts from WindowsXP.

1) Open My Computer

2) Double-click on Drive C

3) Click on File, New Folder and title it Fonts Backup

4) Double-click on the Windows folder to open it

5) Double-click on the Fonts folder

6) Highlight the fonts you wish to remove, click on Edit and choose COPY

7) Navigate back to the C:\Fonts Backup folder and PASTE these fontsinto your backup folder

Return to the Fonts Folder and right-click on any fonts youpreviously copied to the backup folder, then choose Delete.

If you accidentally removed a font, simply reverse the procedure bycopying and pasting the font back into the Windows\Fonts folder.

Disk Cleanup, Scandisk,and Defrag

Performing regular hard drive maintenance on your computer every fewmonths will not only catch problems before they cause serious damagebut also make your hard drive run at its optimal level. Follow theseinstructions to clean up the drive  and defrag it.

1) Open My Computer

2) Right-click on the hard drive usually Drive C

3) Click on the Tools tab

4) Under Error Checking, click on Check Now. Optionally, you may wantto check the boxes to "Automatically Fix File Errors" and "Scan For andAttempt Recovery for Bad Sectors"

5) Next, click on the General tab and click on Disk Cleanup. After thecomputer calculates the amount of files to remove, place a checkmarknext to the type of files you wish to remove and click Ok. Read thedescriptions for each type of file to determine if you should delete it.

6) Finally, click on the Tools tab again and under Defragmentationclick Defragment Now

7) Click on the hard drive you wish to defrag, click on Analyze andthen click on Defragment. This process may take some time to complete.

Virus/Spyware Scans

Finally, you'll want to complete a thorough virus and spyware scan ofyour system. I recommend running an online virus scan first, then acheck for spyware. You can click on the following links to check yoursystem for viruses.

Using a Different Antivirus, Firewall, or AntiSpyware Program

Ifyour computer is still running slow after changing and checking all ofthese options, it might be time to use a different program forantivirus, firewall, or antispyware security. A blog on the net called The PC Spyhas a graph displaying the boot delay time from most of the popularproducts on the market including Symantec, McAfee, Trend Micro,ZoneAlarm, and more.

Not surprisingly, Symantec's InternetSecurity products top the list with a 40+ % boot delay, followed byPanda Antivirus, and Zone Alarm. So, while these products may helpprevent infections and attacks, they also are contributing greatly tothe slowdown your computer is experiencing. Avast, AVG, NOD32, andothers perform much better according to this chart.

Tips or Myths

Thereare other miscellanous tips on the web that may help speed up theWindows boot time, but there are also some very controversial ones.

Emptying the Windows Prefetch Folder

ThePrefetch folder found at C:\WINDOWS\PREFETCH is often a source ofcontroversy concerning its effect on boot time. This folder preloadssome applications to enable faster opening of the most used programs.There are tips on the web that point to changing a registry value oremptying the prefetch folder will improve boot time. From myexperience, deleting the contents of the prefetch folder DOES NOTimprove boot time and only slows the time required to open programs.There is a limit to how many items will be loaded into the folder so itdoesn't get overloaded, so why would anyone empty this folder when itspurpose is to speed up loading of applications. You can read more aboutthe Prefetch Myth on XP Myths.

Disable the Windows Boot Logo

Manysites recommend disabling the animated Windows boot logo to help speedup the time it takes to boot. Although it may decrease the time by acouple seconds, the anxiety caused by facing a blank screen andwondering if Windows has stalled or froze during bootup outweighs thesecond or two you may save. Although if you wish to disable the Windowsboot logo, follow these steps:

1) Click on Start, Run and type MSCONFIG and press Enter

2) Click on the BOOT.INI tab

3) Click the NOGUIBOOT checkbox and click OK

4) Reboot the computer

Using BootVis

WhenWindows XP first came out, Microsoft had a utility called BootVis,which was a performance tracing tool that Microsoft developed fromsoftware developers and system designers. It was used to identifyperformance issues while developing new PC products, but is no longerdistributed. Microsoft states on their web page for BootVis

"Pleasenote that Bootvis.exe is not a tool that will improve boot/resumeperformance for end users. Contrary to some published reports,Bootvis.exe cannot reduce or alter a system's boot or resumeperformance. The boot optimization routines invoked by Bootvis.exe arebuilt into Windows XP. These routines run automatically atpre-determined times as part of the normal operation of the operatingsystem."

I personally have tried Bootvis and saw a couple seconds improvement on overall boot time, but nothing extreme in lowering overall bootup speed.

Step 1: Clear The Start-up folder.

The startup folder is the folder that will launch any programs or shortcuts when the computer starts up. The fewer programs that you have starting up when you power on the computer the faster the computer will boot. Keep in mind that some programs need to run when windows starts up so it may be best to backup this folder before you start.

The folder can be found by going to: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Start Menu\Programs\Startup, where username is your Windows logon name. You can also clear out the start-up items by going to Start > Programs > Startup, then right-clicking items you want to remove.

Step 2: Clearing out the startup in the system configuration utility

The System Configuration Utility also known as MSConfig is a helpful tool that will help you troubleshoot your Windows system. This tool lets you modify a lot of your system preferences but it also allows you to disable programs that startup in the background of Windows. Note: Be careful with this tool as you can make Windows run improperly.

How to start msconfig

Click on the Start button.

Select Run from the menu.

In the run dialog box type “msconfig”.

Click OK.

Once in the msconfig utility select the startup tab. In the startup tab you will see several programs listed with a checkbox beside it. If there is a check mark beside the application listed, the application will startup when your computer starts up. To speed up your computer you want to remove as many check marks from this box without affecting the programs that you use. Once you have removed the checkmarks you wish to remove, click on OK and restart the computer when prompted. It is recommended to uncheck a couple at a time so you will know what is causing a problem if one occurs.

To get more information about a listing, expand the width of the Command column near the top of the Startup tab. Expand it enough and you’ll see the start-up command that the program issues, including its location, such as C:Program FilesAdobeAcrobat 5.0ReaderAcroRd32.exe. The directory location should be a hint to help you know the name of the program. In this case it is Adobe Acrobat.

Step 3: Speeding up your startup by sorting your drivers.

Once upon a time Microsoft used to offer a tool called bootvis to optimize the sequence that your computers drivers load when starting Windows. Although the file is not available through Microsoft, there is a link to the program found in the tools section of this book. There has been some controversy wether the tool actually does anything. Lots of magazines and users say yes. Microsoft says no. For this one you’ll have to be the judge.

How to use bootvis:

Download and install Bootvis. Do a search in Google for bootvis.exe, you will find it. Open Bootvis. (Location may vary depending where you installed it) You need to analyze your computer by going to File and clicking on New. In the New menu select Next Boot and Drivers Trace. Next a box will come up asking how many trace repetitions are needed. Just leave it at the default and click on OK. Another box will appear, select the Reboot Now button and wait for your computer to restart. Once your computer has restarted wait for a little bit and bootvis will start automatically. Go to the Trace menu and select Optimize System.(This may take a few minutes.) Once complete, you will be prompted to restart your system one more time. This reboot should be faster than the last.

Step 4: Stop as many services as possible.

The more that is running on your computer the more your computer has to open on startup. Keeping a slimmer running computer will not only make your computer run faster but it will make Windows startup faster. Here is how it’s done:

Go to the Start menu and then select Run. Type ‘services.msc’ in the Run Dialog Box and click on OK. In the services window double click on the service you wish to disable. In the properties box for the selected service choose disabled in the Startup Type dropdown box. Click on OK.

Its best to restart your computer after disabling a couple of services at a time so if something undesired happens to your computer you know what disabled service needs to be re-enabled.

Step 5: Remove unwanted fonts to increase boot speed

Windows checks and loads fonts during the startup process, therefore having a large amount of font files can cause performance to drag during startup. The simple solution for this (if you do not expect to use the certain fonts) is to move the unnecessary fonts to a new directory elsewhere on the hard disk, preserving them in case they are needed, but preventing them from loading upon startup.

This is how you do it:

In your C drive create a folder called Fonts Backup. You can do this by going to the C drive through My Computer. Go to the File menu and go to New. In the new menu select Folder. A new folder will pop-up and allow you to name it.

Once the folder is created go into it and leave it open. Go to the Start menu and select Run. In the Run command type Fonts. The Fonts folder will load and display the Font files. All you have to do is drag and drop the fonts you think you wont need to the Font Backup folder. Be sure to move the .bold and the.bold.italic files that correspond with the font you want to move.

Step 6: Disable auto detection for empty IDE slots

For a faster boot up is to disable the auto detection that Windows XP uses to determine if there are IDE devices present in any of the IDE slots on the motherboard. More specifically, disable this feature on any empty slots to prevent the operating system wasting time and resources checking them.

This is how you disable IDE Detection:

Right-click on My Computer and Select Properties. In the properties click on the Hardware tab and click on the Device Manager button. In the Device Manager expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. Double-click on one of the Secondary IDE Channels and click on the Advanced Settings tab. In the dropdown box beside Device Type select None and click on OK. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to all of the Secondary IDE channels under the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers.

Step 7: Reduce wait time after XP boots

A common problem when Windows XP boots is you will see the desktop and all of your icons but nothing responds when you click on it. During this time Windows application and networking processes are loading in the background. To reduce this wait time you need to cut down the amount of processes loading. The best way to do this is through Windows networking. Most computers do not share files or printers to other users on a network yet Windows turns File and Printer sharing on by default. Warning: If you are sharing any files or printers this step is not for you.

Here is how you disable file and print sharing.

Go to the Start menu and select Run. In the Run command enter control netconnections. In your Network Connections right-click on a Local area connection and select properties. In the properties remove the checkmark beside File and print sharing. Click OK

Repeat steps 3 through 5 if you have more than one network connection.

Step 8: Disable parts of the Group Policy Manager. (XP Pro only)

This will dramatically speed up the login process – If you don’t need to utilize Group Policies on the local machine, you can disable parts of it.

Go to Start and select Run. Type in gpedit.msc and click on OK. Right click on the Local Computer Policy entry and select Properties from the menu that appears. Add checkmarks to the two options within the Disable section. Close out. Reboot.

Step 9: Enable boot defrag.

A great new feature in Microsoft Windows XP is the ability to do a boot Defragment. This places all boot files next to each other on the disk to allow for faster booting. By default this option is enabled but on some builds it is not so below is how to turn it on.(Y is good)

Go to Start then Run. Enter regedit and click on OK Click on the + sign beside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE then software then Microsoft then dfrg then bootoptimizefunction Select Enable from the list on the right. Right on it and select Modify. Change the value to Y to enable and N to disable. Reboot your computer

Step 10: Delete the prefetch files from time to time.

The prefetch files are the files that make Windows XP load applications load faster. Deleting the files will speedup your boot time. The trade-off is that Windows will take longer to load applications. The time difference for loading applications may not be that affected. Its best to experiment with this one.

How to enable the deletion of prefetch files.

Go into My Computer and go into your hard drive. Right-click anywhere that a file is not and select the ‘New’ submenu and click ‘Text Document’ Name it “deleteprefetch” Double-click on the text file you just created. Type “del C:WindowsPrefetch*.* /Q” (without the quotes). Go to the File menu and click on Save As… and choose “All Files” from the “Save as Type” box and save it as “deleteprefetch.bat”

You just created a batch file that will automatically delete all the files in your Prefetch folder. Just double-click on the file to make it run. I do this once a month to clean up the files

This guide will show you how to shorten the time it takes for your desktop to appear when you turn your computer, and make it shut down faster as well. Here are a few tips to get you right to your desktop as quickly as possible after startup.

To speed up Windows XP shutdown times:

Turn off services that you don’t need. If you want XP to shutdown faster, you need to have less services running for it to shutdown. Disable any unneeded services.

Don’t clear virtual memory at shutdown. Clearing the page file can provide more security, but that comes at the expense of speed. I don’t really care if someone can look at my page file. If you are more concerned with the shutdown speed, then you will want to disable this option in the registry. You will need to locate the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management registry key and change the ClearPageFileAtShutdown to 0.

To speed up Windows XP Startup times:

Waiting for your computer to boot can be a painful process. Though Microsoft has taken steps to speed up the boot process, it still can be improved. Here a few suggestions you can follow to speed up your Windows XP boot time.

Boot Defrag. If your boot files are closer together it will take less time for your hard drive to seek the files, therefore giving you a faster boot time. This was enabled by default on my machine, but you will want to make sure you have the option enabled in the registry. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Dfrg\BootOptimizeFunction

You will want to set “enable” to “Y”.

Keep the registry clean. Windows registry can be a disaster. When programs install they will create registry keys. When you uninstall the program it will leave behind useless registry keys. The solution is to use a good, reliable, registry cleaner. Be careful in which one you choose though because a bad cleaner could really screw up your system. My favorite choice is CClceaner, which will also rid your machine of some spyware and temporary internet files.

Warranty Codes

* # 92702689 # [* # war0anty #]

Enter the menu of warranty codes. In fact, you do not need, but you can find them using the arrows scroll menu.

Menu:

    Shows the serial number of the device.

    Date and year of manufacture (eg 0299).

    Shows month and year of sale (if installed). Here you can set the date, but be careful – it can be done only once in their life phone

    Date of last repair (if any)

    Sends all the phone numbers, pictures, and calls from one phone to another (possibly in order to restore). In models with an infrared eye, this procedure works, and through him

EFR CODEC (Enhanced Full Rate)

This function with its inclusion on the idea, should significantly improve the quality of speech, but unfortunately, it must be supported by your connection. When the work is slightly increased power in the phone call (about 5%). How do I know, none of the Russian cellular operators do not support this feature. Principle is based on a different compression algorithm for speech recognition (ACELP) and has a wider bandwidth.

Dial * 3370 # to activate (the phone should reboot) or # 3370 # to deactivate this function.

HR CODEC (Half Rate)

Substantially impairs the quality of speech, but saves battery somewhere at 30%. Again, must be supported by a mobile operator. American networks that support this feature, I do not know.

Dial * 4720 # to activate (the phone should reboot)

or # 4720 # to deactivate this function.

“The secret” button “Power” (61hh, 7110)

If you briefly press the button of your phone, you get to the “quick change” profiles (custom settings). Very handy feature, which personally I often use. Her “documented” in the model 7110.

“The Secret” 54 #

If you are using a SIM-card memory for storing notebook, then knowing the exact address of the phone number in the memory (number of cells in the SIM-card) is the ability to quickly extract the necessary number to the clipboard dialing apparatus. Simply dial the cell (eg, 6) and press # (bars). The number immediately appears on your screen.

Error in the microcode (61hh)

This error does not lead to any serious consequences, and with normal use of the phone “on purpose” will not happen ever. Here is a sequence of actions in which it manifests itself – the phone just reloaded.

    Log in Calendar (Menu-8)

    Make a note or reminder

    Enter some text in the editing window

    Press and hold the Clear button until the text is empty, then click Back.

    You will return to main screen, but will appear on the screen space (which you certainly do not see).

    Enter any 4 digits (eg 1234).

    Using the arrow keys, move the cursor to the beginning of this line with the numbers (click the down arrow 2 times).

    Now enter any additional 6 digits and press Send (green tube).

    Wait a few seconds. Phone flashes illuminated keys and display, and finally reboot.

How to infect a Computer with a Virus or Trojan

Bind 2 exes (infect a game or any other .exe with your virus/trojan)

A simple thing to do is bind a game with the virus or trojan , lets say you have game.exe and server.exe , there are some programs that will add server.exe into game.exe , so when the program connects those two files it gives you a file.exe that will have both game and server in it , send it to your friends and say its just a game , binder is the program you need to connect these file.

Send them a downloaderA downloader will automaticaly download AND execute any file from the internet on the victims computer as soon as they open the downloader,here it goes:a downloader is 2-4 Kb only! it can be added in a game.exe with the way above,you have to upload your trojan/virus on a server lets say geocities then you set up the downloader to download and run this file,you send the 4Kb file to the victim and as soon his computer runs the file it starts downloading the trojan/virus from geocities,the victim will see nothin, the VIR SCANNERS CANT SEE IT BUT they will detect the trojan/virus that it will download.

Infected webpage (.EML Bug)Another way is to build a webpage that contains a virus and infects the visitors with explorer 5.01-5.5 versions with any virus , i havent test it yet and i am not sure if and how it works but i have seen programs around that promt you to choose a trojan/virus then it decodes it and the it gives you the html that contains the virus the problem is that it takes long time to decode it and its better if your virus is 1-30Kb other ways it ll take days to decode , as i said i havent test it yet and i wont be able to write more or reply to any emails askin for it.

Best way (if you have access on the victims pc)

Get a floppy disc and do the job

To Convert a FAT partition into NTFS

To convert a FAT partition to NTFS:

Click Start, click Programs, and then click Command Prompt.

In Windows XP, click Start, click Run, type cmd and then click OK.

At the command prompt, type CONVERT [driveletter]: /FS:NTFS.

Convert.exe will attempt to convert the partition to NTFS.

NOTE: Although the chance of corruption or data loss during the conversion from FAT to NTFS is minimal, it is best to perform a full backup of the data on the drive that it is to be converted prior to executing the convert command. It is also recommended to verify the integrity of the backup before proceeding, as well as to run RDISK and update the emergency repair disk (ERD).

Tips to create a Strong Password easily..!!!

How to create a Strong Password.

This lead me to explain the method I follow to set a password - A Strong Password indeed by all standards.

You must follow the following criteria while creating a Strong Password:

* The password must be a minimum of 8+ characters.

* The password must have 1 number , 1 special character, 1 Upper Case character.

A very simple example that I use to explain my friends and colleages is : [email protected] It fullfills all the criteria's. The 'a' is replaced by a special character @. The 'P' is of upper case. The 'o' is replaced by the numeral 0.

Well, you can now convert your regular password into a Strong Password by following a few changes like the example I have mentioned above for the simple password - [email protected]

* Make the first character Upper Case.

* Change all 'a' in the password to the special character @.

* Change all 's' in the password to the special character $.* Change all 'l' in the password to the special character !.

* Change all 'o' in the password to the numerical 0.

* Change all 'i' in the password to the numerical 1.

How to fasten up Windows XP..??

1. DISABLE INDEXING SERVICES:-

Indexing 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

2. OPTIMISE DISPLAY SETTINGS

Windows XP can look sexy but displaying all the visual items can waste system resources. To optimise:

1.Go to Start

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 buttons

3. SPEEDUP FOLDER BROWSING:-

You 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

4. IMPROVE MEMORY USAGE:-

Cacheman Improves the performance of your computer by optimizing the disk cache, memory and a number of other settings.

NOTE: This program is shareware and some features require activation.

Once Installed:

1.Go to Show Wizard and select All

2.Run all the wizards by selecting Next or Finished until you are back to the main menu. Use the defaults unless you know exactly what you are doing.

3.Exit and Save Cacheman

4.Restart Windows

5. OPTIMISE YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION:-

There are lots of ways to do this but by far the easiest is to run TCP/IP Optimizer.

1. Download and install

2. Click the General Settings tab and select your Connection Speed (Kbps)

3. Click Network Adapter and choose the interface you use to connect to the Internet

4. Check Optimal Settings then Apply

5. Reboot

6. OPTIMISE YOUR PAGEFILE:-

If you give your pagefile a fixed size it saves the operating system from needing to resize the page file.

1. Right click on My Computer and select Properties

2. Select the Advanced tab

3. Under Performance choose the Settings button

4. Select the Advanced tab again and under Virtual Memory select Change

5. Highlight the drive containing your page file and make the initial Size of the file the same as the Maximum Size of the file.

Windows XP sizes the page file to about 1.5X the amount of actual physical memory by default. While this is good for systems with smaller amounts of memory (under 512MB) it is unlikely that a typical XP desktop system will ever need 1.5 X 512MB or more of virtual memory. If you have less than 512MB of memory, leave the page file at its default size. If you have 512MB or more, change the ratio to 1:1 page file size to physical memory size.

7. SPEEDUP FOLDER ACCESS - DISABLE LAST ACCESS UPDATE:-

If you have a lot of folders and subdirectories on your computer, when you access a directory XP wastes a lot of time updating the time stamp showing the last access time for that directory and for ALL sub directories. To stop XP doing this you need to edit the registry. If you are uncomfortable doing this then please do not attempt.

1. Go to Start and then Run and type “regedit”

2. Click through the file system until you get to “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ System\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSys

tem”

3. Right-click in a blank area of the window on the right and select ‘DWORD Value’

4. Create a new DWORD Value called ‘NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate’

5. Then Right click on the new value and select ‘Modify’

6. Change the Value Data to ‘1'

7. Click ‘OK’

8. MAKE YOUR MENUS LOAD FASTER:-

This is one of my favourite tweaks as it makes a huge difference to how fast your machine will ‘feel’. What this tweak does is remove the slight delay between clicking on a menu and XP displaying the menu.

1. Go to Start then Run

2. Type ‘Regedit’ then click ‘Ok’

3. Find “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\”

4. Select “MenuShowDelay”

5. Right click and select “Modify’

6. Reduce the number to around “100?

7. This is the delay time before a menu is opened. You can set it to “0? but it can make windows really hard to use as menus will open if you just look at them - well move your mouse over them anyway. I tend to go for anywhere between 50-150 depending on my mood.

9. IMPROVE XP SHUTDOWN SPEED:-

This tweak reduces the time XP waits before automatically closing any running programs when you give it the command to shutdown.

1. Go to Start then select Run

2. Type ‘Regedit’ and click ok

3. Find ‘HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Control Panel\Desktop\’

4. Select ‘WaitToKillAppTimeout’

5. Right click and select ‘Modify’

6. Change the value to ‘1000'

7. Click ‘OK’

8. Now select ‘HungAppTimeout’

9. Right click and select ‘Modify’

10. Change the value to ‘1000'

11. Click ‘OK’

12. Now find ‘HKEY_USERS\ .DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop’

13. Select ‘WaitToKillAppTimeout’

14. Right click and select ‘Modify’

15. Change the value to ‘1000'

16. Click ‘OK’

17. Now find ‘HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ System\CurrentControlSet\Control\’

18. Select ‘WaitToKillServiceTimeout’

19. Right click and select ‘Modify’

20. Change the value to ‘1000'

21. Click ‘OK’

10. IMPROVE SWAPFILE PERFORMANCE:-

If you have more than 256MB of RAM this tweak will considerably improve your performance. It basically makes sure that your PC uses every last drop of memory (faster than swap file) before it starts using the swap file.

1. Go to Start then Run

2. Type “msconfig.exe” then ok

3. Click on the System.ini tab

4. Expand the 386enh tab by clicking on the plus sign

5. Click on new then in the blank box type”ConservativeSwapfileUsage=1?

6. Click OK

7. Restart PC

11. ENSURE XP IS USING DMA MODE:-

XP enables DMA for Hard-Drives and CD-Roms by default on most ATA or ATAPI (IDE) devices. However, sometimes computers switch to PIO mode which is slower for data transfer - a typical reason is because of a virus. To ensure that your machine is using DMA:

1. Open ‘Device Manager’

2. Double-click ‘IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers’

3. Right-click ‘Primary Channel’ and select ‘Properties’ and then ‘Advanced Settings’

4. In the ‘Current Transfer Mode’ drop-down box, select ‘DMA if Available’ if the current setting is ‘PIO Only’
