Portable Mozilla Firefox 3 Hacked 10X times more faster

Portable Mozilla Firefox 3 Hacked 10X times more faster
Mozilla Firefox - faster, more secure, easier to use and sporting a new look, this latest Firefox release sets a new standard for web browser innovation. Mozilla Firefox project (formerly Firebird, which was formerly Phoenix) is a redesign of Mozilla's browser component, written using the XUL user interface language and designed to be cross-platform. It is small, fast and easy to use, and offers many advantages over other web browsers, such as the tabbed browsing and the ability to block pop-up windows.

Mozilla Firefox 3 is focused on improved memory handling, performance, and stability, improved XUL, and new core components such as application data stored in SQLite. Mozilla Firefox 3 could break a few existing extensions and applications built on top of Firefox, and it will definitely include new optimizations if you like to build on the popular browser. Mozilla Firefox 3 should have additional JavaScript and SVG features if you're into that sort of thing.

Vista Start Menu SE 3.02

Vista Start Menu SE description

This application is a superior alternative to the windows Start menu

Each time you start programs from the Start menu, you use the interface that has not changed for 10 years. No wonder that it becomes more and more difficult to use it due to the increase in the number of programs...

Vista Start Menu is a completely another approach to the interface. In the process of development we were oriented towards how people perceive information and also towards the ability to remember the position of items.

All you see in the standard menu is a long list and you have to read most names in order to find the program you need.
Vista Start Menu will show only program icons. That is why it is a lot easier to find the program you need with just one glance.

Besides, in Vista Start Menu, the programs are arranged in a table visually divided into sections, which also contributes to finding what you need in no time.

With Vista Start Menu, you just open the menu and click the program icon. If you need supplemental files installed together with the program, just move the mouse pointer over the icon and you will see a submenu where you can find all you need.

Vista Start Menu retains the position of icons that is why when you install or remove programs, icons remain in their places. You do not have to spend time on looking for an icons that has "slid away" as it usually happens in the standard menu.

Here are some key features of "Vista Start Menu SE":

· fully edit the menu by dragging the items into/out of it and within;
· add a divider line to the main menu;
· call out a context menu for the main menu items.

Requirements:

· 128 MB RAM

GMail Drive shell extension 1.0.13

GMail Drive shell extension description

A Shell Namespace Extension that creates a virtual filesystem around your Google GMail account

GMail Drive is a Shell Namespace Extension that creates a virtual filesystem around your Google GMail account, allowing you to use GMail as a storage medium.

GMail Drive creates a virtual filesystem on top of your Google GMail account and enables you to save and retrieve files stored on your GMail account directly from inside Windows Explorer.

GMail Drive literally adds a new drive to your computer under the My Computer folder, where you can create new folders, copy and drag'n'drop files to.GMail Drive shell extension is a tool that creates a virtual filesystem.

Ever since Google started to offer users a GMail e-mail account, which includes storage space of a 1000 megabytes, you have had plenty of storage space but not a lot to fill it up with.

With GMail Drive you can easily copy files to your GMail account and retrieve them again. When you create a new file using GMail Drive, it generates an e-mail and posts it to your account.

The e-mail appears in your normal Inbox folder, and the file is attached as an e-mail attachment. GMail Drive periodically checks your mail account (using the GMail search function) to see if new files have arrived and to rebuild the directory structures.

But basically GMail Drive acts as any other hard-drive installed on your computer.
You can copy files to and from the GMail Drive folder simply by using drag'n'drop like you're used to with the normal Explorer folders.

Because the GMail files will clutter up your Inbox folder, you may wish to create a filter in GMail to automatically move the files (prefixed with the GMAILFS letters) to your archived mail folder.

Please note that GMail Drive is still an experimental tool. There's still a number of limitations of the file-system (such as total filename size must be less than 40 characters), and it doesn't make full use of the secure internet protocols available.

You can try Xmail alternative for portability.

· Internet Explorer 5 or better

Microsoft Invites Online Advertising Players to Test Its Ad Playing Field

The ad:tech New York conference was the perfect moment for Microsoft to send out invitations to online advertising industry players to come and test its playing field. The Redmond company is planning to debut the test-driving of a new federated system for online advertising built by AdECN, a wholly owned Microsoft subsidiary. The software giant revealed that the AdECN exchange model would bring a functionality which is not shared by any other online ad exchange system.

“Our goal is to provide a fair and level playing field for all the online advertising industry players to play on,” revealed Jeff Green, co-founder of AdECN. “The federated system simplifies online buying and selling. It will allow ad networks to use their own tools in which they have invested large amounts of time and money, to connect advertisers and publishers across the industry.”

Essentially, the new federated system developed as an extension of the AsECN platform is a replica of the New York Stock Exchange model. The Redmond company is working to deliver what is has defined as a “neutral auction house that automates the buying and selling of online display advertising”.

Via the new exchange model, Microsoft is delivering advanced flexibility in the hands of ad networks. In this regard, the company informed that players in its ad exchange model would be able to use their own proprietary technology, including optimization tools and solutions designed to perform behavioral and demographic targeting.

“Since being acquired by Microsoft, we now have the fuel we needed to build and test our new model,” Green added. “Pricing every ad impression in a neutral auction environment levels the playing field and will help us start to address the pricing issues we’ve seen in display marketing.”

RapidWeaver Web Design App for Mac Reaches V. 4.2

Realmac Software has updated RapidWeaver, its website creation tool and flagship app for Mac OS X. Version 4.2 adds full localization for four additional languages (French, German, Italian and Japanese), while it also tweaks some of the existing features, and fixes a number of bugs as well.

Founded in November 2002, Realmac Software is focused on developing useful, easy-to-use programs for Mac OS X. RapidWeaver, the flagship app of the company, was released in June 2004. According to its makers, it continues to receive excellent reviews to this day.

Realmac's web design application helps users “create professional looking web sites in minutes,” the company says. RapidWeaver allows anyone to publish photos, movies and blogs online instantly, since no knowledge of complex codes is required, according to the developers. However, while you don't need to be aware of how XHTML or CSS work in order to get started with RapidWeaver, code-savvy users do have the ability to place HTML, PHP or CSS codes throughout the application, for even better results.

As noted above, the latest version of RapidWeaver brings a slew of changes and tweaks, some of which we've highlighted below:

- German, French, Italian and Japanese localization added;
- Webpage source list now remembers the previous width;
- Growl no longer displays notifications when RapidWeaver is in the foreground;
- Holding down the Command key, whilst starting RapidWeaver, now disables third-party plugins until the application is restarted;
- Holding down Command and Option, whilst starting RapidWeaver, now disables all third-party add-ons (themes, snippets, plugins) until the application is restarted;
- Images dragged into a styled text view now have Web friendly, unique filenames;
- Saving a document that has missing files is no longer treated as an error;
- Improvements to smart publishing / “Credit RapidWeaver” metadata handling to reduce future uploads.

RapidWeaver 4.2 is a free upgrade for registered users of RapidWeaver 3.6 or higher. One user license goes for US$79, while users of RapidWeaver 3.5, or earlier, can benefit from an upgrade offer that has them pay just $30 in order to get the latest version. A download link for RapidWeaver 4.2 is available below.

Note: Some antivirus and antispyware programs flag ... as being infected/malware, although the application is perfectly safe and does not pose a threat to your system. This is called a 'false positive'. The term false positive is used when antivirus software wrongly classifies an innocuous ( inoffensive ) file as a virus. The incorrect detection may be due to heuristics or to an incorrect virus signature in a database. [Similar problems can occur with antitrojan or antispyware software.]

Trojan Remover

description

This application aids in the removal of Trojan Horses from a computer

Trojan Remover was written to aid in the removal of Trojan Horses and Internet Worms when standard anti-virus software has either failed to detect the problem or is unable to effectively eliminate it.

Trojan Remover's database currently contains 16903 individual trojan/worm signatures (including variants) [as at 8th October 2005].

The majority of Virus and Trojan Scanners are well able to detect malicious Trojan Horses and Internet Worms but are not always very efficient in removing them once they have been triggered.

Trojan Remover was written specifically to carry out such a removal without the user having to manually edit system files, including the Registry.

The program also removes the additional system modifications some Trojans carry out which are ignored by other Virus and Trojan Scanners.

Trojan Remover examines the system files, including Windows Registry and will determine the programs and files that are loaded at boot time. The vast majority of trojans are loaded this way.

Trojan Remover will scan ALL the files loaded at boot time for Remote Access Trojans ('backdoors', like NetBus, SubSeven, Optix Pro, Back Orifice etc.), Internet Worms and other malware.

For each identified Trojan Horse, Worm, or other malware, Trojan Remover will pop up an alert screen showing the file location and name; it will offer to remove the program's reference from the system files and allow you to rename the file to stop its activation.

Limitations:

· The program will work for 30 days
· Nag screen

instantly hide what you're doing on a computer

Working on something sensitive or reading a personal e-mail and someone walks in? Or maybe you're just seeing what you'd look like as the opposite gender in photoshop. Well in under a second, it can be gone several different ways.


Step1
The simplest way of hiding everything is with the show desktop command. On any PC with a modern PC keyboard, there should be a "windows key" between the left control and alt buttons. It has a little windows flag on it and may also say "start." Hold that down and press D and tada, everything is minimized. Of course, what you have open is still shown in the task bar on the bottom of the screen so if you want full privacy, right click on it, uncheck "lock the taskbar," then drag the resizer bar at the top all the way down so the taskbar is basically gone. That or set the start menu to auto-hide and then just don’t mouse over it.

Step2
It's odd for someone to walk up and see no task bar and nothing open when you were obviously doing something on the computer a second ago. So to be even stealthier, hold the windows key from step 1 and instead press the L key. That will lock your computer. In XP Home it shows the login screen but it didn't actually log you out. Everything you had open is still running. In XP Pro it just brings up a little box saying that the computer was locked. For maximum security, make sure your windows account has a password on it so people would need that to unlock it. Then when someone walks in, do that quick keyboard combination and pretend like you just finished and were getting up to do something else.

Step3
My favorite method is to have a full screen program like a game running. Have whatever you really wanted to do open and then hold down alt and then hit tab until it brings you to the other program. Then you do whatever you really want to do and if someone walks up, just quickly hold alt and then press tab and quickly release both again. That will switch you back to your full screen program/game because that was the last program you were using and they won't be able to see what else is running.

Step4
Sometimes you just need to close one thing that you had open. In that case, pressing alt and F4 terminates whatever program is open and currently in the foreground. So if you're typing away in internet explorer and press alt-F4, internet explorer closes. Be aware that some programs don't close immediately. Word will ask you to save if you hit alt-F4 and IE7 will ask if you want to close all tabs for example. If your hands are on the mouse, forget about clicking file, exit or a bunch of red X’s. Just double click any folder or program's icon in the top left corner. That will close it.

Step5
If for some reason none of these other methods will work and you're on a PC, keep the tower on the ground and place it so the restart button is within kicking distance. That will look extremely obvious if you don't say that it's some weird power problem or you had to restart for an update though. It's also really bad and slightly dangerous for files on the hard drive to suddenly restart the computer.

Install Additional Fonts in Windows

Windows supports TureType fonts or fonts that come with programs designed to run on Windows. Many times printers will come with additional fonts to install that are supported by Windows. This procedure applies for Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows NT.

Click on the “Start” menu and then select “Run”

In the “Open” field type: %windir%\fonts, and then click OK

In the Windows file box, select File, Install New Fonts…

Select the Drive that has the fonts you want to install, then select the folder by double clicking on it in the Folders box.

In the fonts list box either select all or select the ones you want to install by holding down the CTL-key and selecting each with the mouse. Click OK and your fonts will be installed.

increase font and text size in Internet Explorer

This how-to guide will show you how to increase the font and text size while you are using Internet Explorer. Sometimes web pages can be cluttered and have small font. This does not necessarily mean you have to be stuck with the small or large font. You can change the font and text size with three easy steps.

Launch Internet Explorer. Once you've launched your homepage, you are ready to learn to how to increase your font and text sizes.

Internet Explorer To increase the font and text sizes you must first locate the "View" option drop down menu in the upper right of your Internet Explorer browser.

Get rid of those glasses After you have chosen "View" proceed with choosing "Text Size". "Text Size" will produce five separate options for increasing or decreasing text and font sizes. The five options should include smallest, smaller, medium, larger, and largest. Proceed with choosing the text size that fits your style and reading abilities.

Include Pictures In Your Visual Basic Application

If you are writing a visual basic application that you intend to sell, and you want to include image files within the program and have the image change based on a selection from something like a listbox or an option button, you’ll need to retrieve the files from another location. This article shows a convenient way to accomplish this.

If you want to display CAD files, or other images and pictures, within your visual basic application, there are a number of ways to accomplish this. If you are displaying a static picture (one that doesn't change),you can just load it into a picture box.

There are several ways to store and call graphics files to display based upon a user selection, using the "Image" feature. However, there are disadvantages to at least two of the most obvious methods.

You can include the graphics files in your .cab file, and have them load into the applications working directory. The problem with this is that if the files get lost, it causes a run-time error in your application, and your user will not be happy. Basically, this can cause your program to crash because your application calls for a file that is no longer there.

You can use the visual basic recommended method of storing and retrieving your files from a resource file. The problem with this is that the resource file feature will only accept bitmap image files. The bitmaps tend to be rather large in file size, but more importantly, the image quality is poor.

I have found that Windows meta files (*.wmf) work best when trying to display images created in a CAD system. These images, when loaded into an "Image" box, can be made to automatically "stretch", or scale, themselves to fit the box provided. This way, your images don't have to be all exactly the same size to look proportionate. In addition, the image resolution is much beter than a bitmap file.

Image provided by DZynSource, LLC Let's assume that you are writing an application, and you want to call various pictures to one "Image" box displayed on a form. Let's further assume that you want the image to change based on a user selection, like the form shown in the picture to the left. Once your image files are created, and saved in Windows Meta File format, they are ready to be imported into your application.

Create a form called something like "frmPicture". Add as many picture boxes as you desire to this form. Click on a picture box, go to the "properties" dialog box, and name the picturebox with a name that is something meaningful to you. If you are going to show pictures of a car, you could call this picture box "car", for example.

While in the properties dialog box, scroll down to the "picture" property. When you click on the picture name, in the properties column, a command button with three dots on it appears at the end of the picture property row. Click on it. This opens a direcory list box that allows you to search your computer to find your files. Select your desired car picture file. The picture will display in the picture box that you just created.

Now go to the form where you want to display these interchangeable pictures. Create an "Image" box, and size it to suit your application. Call this image box "Image1", or whatever makes sense to you. Go to the Properties dialog box and set the stretch property equal to true.

We use an Image box here because it has this property called "stretch" that allows our pictures to re-size to fit the box created.

If you are going to use an option button to select the image to be displayed, you can use code like the following to retrieve the picture:

Private Sub optCar_Click()
If optCar.Value = True Then

Set Image1.Picture = frmPicture.Car.Picture
Image1.Refresh

You can change the code to suit whatever selction feature and file names you decide to use.

This tells the program that Image1's picture property is the car picture from the form called frmPicture.

In this case, every time the user selects a different option button, based on the textual description next to the button, the image changes to show a graphical representation of the choice. This is a visual aid to the user, and makes the software interface more user friendly.

Using this method accomplishes several things:

The images are internal to your application, that is, they are contained within the application.
You don't have to ship pictures and images as separate files that can get lost from the root directory, and ruin the performance of your software.
The Windows meta files give a reasonably good image quality, and scale to fit the image box supplied.

Improve Your Computer Skills

Improving your computer skills is necessary, in these times of changing technology. Having great computer skills can present alot of opportunities, including an increase in your income. Take a look at some of my suggestions below.

Find Gif Creation Programs Online

This is a listing of where and to find GIF creation programs online.

To find a program that creates GIFs, one can perform an internet search with basic keywords like "GIF"," create", "construction", "set", and "free". Although the search won't likely bring up any completely free programs to download, some will bring up free trials, which will give a good opportunity to try the GIF process at least and see if buying them to make the GIFs is ideal.

One such site that will come up is the link for GIF Construction set. This is available at mindworkshop.com and is recommended by the author of the "Sam's Teach Yourself in 24 Hours" book about HTML and XHTML.

Another program download that comes up is a link to Gif Animator. This is available at gif-animator.com.

Download.com has a try before you buy program download for Easy Gif Animator that will likely also come up in your search.

The other option is to create GIFs online. Although this can be a pain due to speed and internet disconnection, it is another great way to create GIFs. I found the following sites for this:
www.gifup.com, gickr.com, picasion.com, and gifworks.com.

The last bit of advice I have is to tell all that people are supposed to get permission to use GIFs online or in any other way that is not personal use.

Extend Your Laptop's Battery Life

Most laptop manufactors promoise that the battery of the Laptop you have will last a long time, they lied! The laptop battery always seems to stop working very early (when you're watching a dvd). Take the proper steps yourself to ensure you get the most out of your laptop's battery life!

The well lit screen on your laptop takes up more power than you think. While the screen is bright, you don't have to have it up to the maximum brightness in order to use it. Go to your screen settings and decrease the brightness so it's still comfortable for you to use.

Discontinue your wireless signal if you have one, while you're not using your laptop. 20-30 minutes of your laptops battery life goes towards supporting your WiFi wireless feature. Right click on your wireless icon and click disable.

Make sure you have the correct power scheme set on your laptop. You can choose to use maximum power or low power when not using your laptop. Play around with the settings until you find one you feel comfortable with.
