Optimize Computer Performance

Some people think that optimizing the computer's performance is a difficult task. But, it is actually a simple and easy task. Just take the following simple steps to optimize the computer's performance. Use all these tips together to get good results:

1. Check registry files: Registry files control the software systems and programs on a computer. They can become damaged when you uninstall a program. Generally, uninstalling one program lead to a problem with another program that shared similar registry files. Therefore, use some good registry scanning software to determine if everything is working fine. There are lot of good registry scanners available in the market. Some of them are free wares. You can use any of these. (See my other posts on Registry Scanners: Abexo Registry Cleaner and Registry Cleaner Software).


2. Remove unwanted icons from desktop: The easiest ways to optimize the computer’s performance is to cleanup the things on the desktop. The icons which you never use slow down a computer. Deleting these icons will free up some memory and speed up the computer. If you mistakenly install any application / software on the desktop, then be very carefull.


3. Upgrade the Computer memory
   
   : Buying a memory may be costly, but it's very simple and easy way to speed up your computer. It will also fix memory errors if any. Before buying the memory / RAM for your computer, look for shops, make a survey and find a best value deal.


4. Use Program uninstallers: Many times, when programs are removed, they leave behind some traces. So, use a program uninstaller to uninstall or remove installed software. Choose any good uninstaller software like Advanced Uninstaller PRO or Total Uninstall etc.


5. Delete every unwanted program from the task bar. They utilize memory and slowdown the computer. You can do this by following simple steps:

• Click on Start > Run. Enter MsCONFIG. Press enter key. Click on Start UP. Here you will find a list of start up programs.
• Uncheck programs like real players, Office startup, Quicken Reminder, etc.
• Do NOT uncheck systray, Explorer and Virus check or scheduler programs.

Trace a Gmail Email Account

Copyright © 2008 Ed Opperman

When Gmail first threw its hat into the email ring a few years ago, its service was open only to those who had received an invitation. Now, however, it's free and has exploded into one of the most popular email services available - thanks to Google's trusted brand name, its simplicity, the huge amount of storage space available for absolutely free, extra features (such as POP3 access), embedded web and video chat, and so many more! Is it any question, then, that millions of people are already using Gmail - even though it's a relative newcomer on the email scene?

And though Gmail's spam filters are among the best available, there is a chance that, at some point, you'll receive unwanted email - and it might even be from a Gmail address. In such an instance, your best bet is to use Gmail's own reverse email search; it's easier for Gmail, after all, to search its own records than to have an outside source looking in. See what you're able to discover about the sender. (Gmail is especially attractive to those wishing to remain very much anonymous, because the headers in any given piece of mail are stripped of any and all IP information. Thus, the stalker or hacker believes himself or herself to be secure.)

Even if you don't have much luck, or any at all, you are far from out of options. In fact, now would be a good time to check out one of the many free independent reverse email search engines available online. When using these sites, the key is to remain tenacious - because it may take a good while before you produce results. Giving up is the last thing that you want to do; after all, even if the reverse email search engine you are using isn't having any success at all, bear in mind that there are those services which, for whatever reason (and there exist a few possibilities), have more success than others!

If you are still having little to no success, or if the email received was of a particular harmful or malicious nature, you might want to consider contacting a third party for some needed extra help. I am referring to professional investigators who specialize in online matters, since they have tools at their disposal not necessarily available to you. Every step taken online leaves a 'footprint' - data that can be tracked and which will inevitably lead to the person who has been taking the steps all along. This is true even if the person in question is using dial-up or a handful of proxies; while these factors could slow down a search, they are never able to stop a search in its tracks altogether!

Private investigators often have access to what is known as the "deep web" - information not available through conventional means such as, say, a simple Google search. So always remember that the only way to ensure your subject gets away is for you to run out of steam and simply give up. Otherwise, you should inevitably be able to find the information that you are looking for! Best of luck!

Opera 9.6: Speed Dial

Here's another dose of the Opera Web browser for you! If you didn't already know, the people over at Opera recently released the new Opera 9.6 and it's now available for download here. Opera claims to be the only browser that comes with everything you need to be productive, safe and speedy while online. Let’s take a quick look at the Speed Dial feature available in the new version. Here we go!

Speed Dial is a new method of quickly browsing to your favorite Web sites. When you hit the New Tab button, instead of the usual blank page, you'll see a 3 x 3 grid. The grid takes up the full screen and it's laid out in the fashion of a telephone dial with numbers from 1 to 9. Each number can be populated with a different URL, selected from either your existing favorites or entered manually. Now, I know you might be thinking that nine speed dials is not nearly enough. Well, lucky for you, there's an easy way to increase the number of speed dials. Let's check it out, shall we?!



1.) Open Opera and go to Help, About Opera. That will open a page that shows the version information, as well as, other useful information about Opera. Check the Paths section and copy the path for the Opera Directory.



2.) Close Opera and paste the path into the Run dialogue box. Hit OK and you'll then see the Opera profile directory.

3.) You’ll see the “speeddial.ini” file in the folder. Open the file in Notepad and add the following lines to the end of the file:

[Size]

Rows=4

Columns=5

In the above code, 4 and 5 are just examples. You can replace them with your desired numbers.



4.) Save the file and open Opera again. Now, you’ll be able to see more speed dials in Opera!



Enjoy it, my friends!

Folder Lock

Are you tired of your friends, co-workers or children messing with your important computer files? Well, it doesn't have to be like that anymore! If you start using Folder Lock, you'll see just how easy it can be to safeguard your sensitive files against unwanted access. Folder Lock works with Windows Vista, XP, NT, ME and 98 and it's so easy to use. Let's check it out, shall we?!

Folder Lock is a fast data encryption and password protection program for Windows. It can simultaneously encrypt, lock and password protect your files, folders, drives, USB drives and even your CD/DVD ROM drives.



Folder Lock creates encrypted storage spots called "lockers." You can keep as many of your private files and folders as you want in your locker and password protect them with just a single click. You can transfer, secure and back up your lockers as well. The lockers are portable, meaning you can keep them on a flash drive, on a CD or DVD or you can transfer them via e-mail. Plus, the lockers are incapable of being deleted as long as Folder Lock is installed on your computer.

You can treat the lockers just as you would in the physical world. For example, each single user can create multiple lockers with different passwords. With Folder Lock, you can choose to either encrypt using 256-bit AES on-the-fly encryption or you can lock your files, folders and drives anywhere on your computer. Each locker can contain your encrypted files, as well as, your personal list of locked items.

Furthermore, Folder Lock's options, such as hack attempt monitoring, stealth mode, data shredding, history cleaning and auto protection can enhance data security beyond anything ever achieved before. In addition, a locker's Delete, Move and Rename options are password protected to prevent data loss.

If you're interested, you can download Folder Lock for yourself right here. Enjoy!

Website:-Troovi

Would you like to share your photos online in high quality? Well, now you can with Troovi!

This Web site is so easy to use! Just click on the Choose Photos button to get started. That will open your computer's Open menu, so go ahead and select the photo you’d like upload. Free users can upload 15 images at a time, so don’t be shy!

Once you’ve selected all the photos you want to upload, click on the Upload button. Once they're uploaded to the site, a window will come up. The window contains the link you need to see the photos you’ve uploaded. It's very important for you to copy and paste that somewhere to save it. I like to paste the URL into Notepad. The window that popped up also gives you the option to send out your photo collection via e-mail.

When you’re finished filling out the e-mail form to share your photos with all your friends and family, just click on the Finished button. E-mailing it to yourself is another great way of saving your unique link. (Make sure you check your spam folder as well, because that’s where my e-mail ended up).

After you’ve uploaded the initial batch, you can add more photos by clicking on the Add More Photos button. It works the same way as it did the first time you did it. I hope you have fun with Troovi!

Website:-Study Stack

Welcome to Study Stack! This is my favorite study Web site, because it integrates studying not only by traditional means (think flashcards), but it includes studying by playing games. I love to recommend this site to my friends in class who are getting ready to take the GRE (Graduate Record Examination).

Start by selecting the subject matter you’d like to study from the list provided. You’ll then be taken to a much larger list that has study stacks for the specific topic you chose. Choose a study stack from the list and you'll be taken to its page. There you can choose the method you'd like to study. Your options are: Notes, Flashcards, Study Stack, Study Table, Matching, Hangman, Crossword, Word Search, Unscramble, Type In, Bug Match, Export, Print, Edit, E-mail and Hmm.

Three options I really want to point out to you are Export, E-mail and Print. Export allows you to download the date to your cell phone, PDA, computer or even your iPod. The E-mail option allows you to send the address of the study stack to your friends via e-mail. Print allows you to print out flashcards in several different styles to use offline.

You can also add your own study materials if you can’t find what you need to study. To add your own, scroll down to the bottom of the list for the subject you want to study and then click on the Create Your Own link.

You’ll need to register to add your own material. It's really easy if you have a Facebook account, because you can use that to log in. If you don’t, that's okay too! Just register for Study Stack. To do so, fill out the registration form with a username, e-mail address, password and agree to the terms and conditions. It’s that simple!

Once you’re logged in, you can also create a study stack by clicking on the Create a New Stack link under your Stacks tab. You’ll need to name your stack, type in a description for it and decide whether you want to let other users edit it or whether you want it to auto-generate for the games.

Now, click on the Data tab. That's where you'll be able to insert the data you want to study. Type in the questions, then the answers and make sure you click on the Save Changes button when you’re done updating the data information.

Before you know it, you’ll have your study stack completed and you'll be ready to start using it. Pretty neat, huh?!

Website:-Where's My Cell Phone?

I'm notorious for losing my cell phone around my house and in my car. But with this Web site, I no longer have any trouble finding my cell phone!

All you have to do is put in your cell phone number and click on the Find It button. The service will call your cell phone for free and let it ring so that you can find it. It only takes a few seconds!

You can ring your phone once every five minutes until you find it. They don’t keep any of the numbers they dial, so you don’t have to worry about them using your information.

This is a very handy tool! There's even a gadget you can add to your Google homepage (if you use Google) that allows you to use it right from there.

I’ve bookmarked this site and if you lose your cell phone the way I do, you’ll want to do the same!

Website:-My Live Signature

I’m really excited about sharing this Web site with you! My mom sent it to me after she used it to create a signature she could use for her work e-mails. I recommend starting with the Quick Tour.

The Quick Tour will not only walk you through the whole process, but it will also explain all the different ways you can make your signature. You'll want to get a static signature, because they’re free! (Only the static ones created from the wizard or with the draw tool are free).

To get started making your signature, click on Start Now. You’ll then need to choose whether you want to use the wizard or the draw tool. I recommend using the wizard, because it was a lot more fun to select a font that matches my hand writing than to draw a deformed version of my signature with the mouse.

To use the wizard, click on the Create Signature button underneath the text that says “Create a new signature using our wizard.” That will lead you to a page where you’ll be presented with three options: wizard, draw or upload. You'll want to select the wizard, which is the first option.

After selecting the wizard tool, you’ll be asked to type in the name or nickname you’d like to use for your signature. I put in Amanda @ WorldStart.com, which is how I sign my e-mails. In the next step, you’ll select which font you want to use. There are around 120 different fonts you can choose from and they may take a minute or tow to load. Click on the bullet of the font you want to use and then click on the Next button at the bottom of the page.

The next step is to select the size you want your signature to be. I like mine rather small, so I selected size 2. There are ten different sizes to pick from, so you’ll have plenty of options. Click on the Next button to continue. Here you'll select the color of the font you want to use for your signature. There are ten different colors to choose from. Next, you can set the slope of your signature. There are ten different slopes to choose from as well. You’re finally finished!

Take the code they give you for your signature (signature ID) and copy it. Then paste it on the Start Now page under the Download a Signature heading. The other thing you can do with the signature ID is paste it under the Generate a Code section. That will give you a choice between an HTML code and a BB code. If you want to use it on a forum, choose the BB code. If you want to use it on a Web page, choose the HTML code.

Now, you have a personalized signature all your very own. Yes!

Website:Thanks-O-Meter

I truly believe that kindness triggers more kindness. An excellent example of that happened to me recently. My roommate and I were on our way to an appointment with her doctor. We got in the car and were all set to go when we remembered we left the cookies we made for her dad in the house. So, she tries to back into the drive way, but misses it and hits a snowdrift in our yard. We try to pull back out, but we were stuck! Then one of our neighbors came out of his house to walk his dogs and sees that we're in trouble. He takes his dogs back in the house, grabs his shovel and dashes across the street to help us.

Thanks to his kindness, we were able to get to the doctor’s office on time and we arrived in enough time to help an elderly woman get past the icy walkway. We helped her into the office and she was so grateful that someone would help her, she couldn’t stop smiling. Once she was settled in to wait on the doctor, I noticed she was seated across from a little girl with the flu who just looked miserable. The woman we helped struck up a conversation with her, got her to smile and took her mind off being sick.

With all the bad news in the world these days, it was so refreshing to find this Web site. Thanks-O-Meter celebrates those every day events of kindness, charity and anything that deserves a thank you!

It works by you selecting a thank you, choosing how it made you feel and then sharing your story. For my story, I chose "For Being Great Neighbors" and it made me feel lucky and grateful. Then I selected to share my story. It was hard to keep it within the 500 character limit, but I managed to do it.

Don’t have anything to share right now? Well, that’s no problem! You can enjoy all the stories everyone else has submitted on the site. Just click on the Stories tab at the top of the page. Then select an emotion and it will give you a listing of stories you can read that were tagged with that particular emotion.

A program for ending programs safely and effectively

A program for ending programs safely and effectively

Today I have free download for you all that has saved me a ton of headache. Have you ever read the fine print when you install a program? Almost all of them tell you to close all running programs before continuing with the installation. This seems simple enough until you actually try to do it. Stopping all running programs on a computer is a huge pain in the you know what. Well, that is where end-it-all comes in. This little hand program only serves one purpose; to end programs! Just launch end-it-all and closing all of your programs are just one click away!



This is the menu bar for end-it-all. The single "x" and the skull and cross bones are for closing or killing a single application respectively. The multi "x" and skull and crossbones will close all programs or kill all programs respectively.

"What is the difference between close and kill " you ask?. Closing a program will attempt to close it by asking nicely for it to stop. This works sometimes, but not others. Killing a program will stop a program dead in its tracks. This works all the time, but is a bit more harsh. You should try the close option first.

I think this program is great for what it does. If you want to give it a try, you can download it here. Just go to the page and click the "download set-up only file" link. Its even compatible with Vista!
