Tips To Increase Broadband Speed in Your FireFOx Browser

Here's some tips to increase broadband speed :

1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining network.http.proxy.pipelining network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true"

Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true"

Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select
New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.

If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now!

Steps to ensure better security in Facebook, Protect Face Book Account From Virus

I would like to give you all some small tips on how to ensure a better security in facebook. As we all know we share a lot of information in facebook and we try all the possible steps to protect it from hackers but we may be lacking some way or the another. May b because of the lack of knowledge in terms of online security. So I would like to share some of the knowledge with you all which may help you in the long run.

1) Password Security

while setting up a password make sure that you make the password longer than 8 characters and also do include a lot of characters as well as special characters and numbers in it. Do not make use of repeated characters or your birthday in it, such that it will be easier for you to remember. There is a possibility of phishing attack with that method.

2) Do not give any personal information to anyone in facebook. There are various unknown sources in facebook which asks for the personal information such as financial information or social security number. Just avoid them and don’t provide anything at all.

3) Clicking on a suspicious link

Make sure that you don’t click any links that are given to you online just because you feel like clicking it. sometimes it can happen that a person may not have been posted that link it can be a spam as well. If you any such doubts about the link just verify with the sender if he/she has sent it or not. Also watchout for the links that asks you to give the login information, don’t provide it at any cost.

4) Safe web browser

You should have a updated web browser and also it must be equipped with the anti-phishing protection. You can do that by going in the help section. The most recommended browsers are Firefox, Chrome and Safari.

5) Important to keep the machine clean

Ensure that your operating system is updated with the latest version. I hope you must be knowing how to update yourOS. Plus your system should have a good antivirus system, that includes all the security essentials such as anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-phishing, and a firewall.

6) Account safeguarding tools

You can take the advantage of the security and privacy controls that is being offered by the facebook it will keep a track of all the activity and logins done by you. you do get the option of which information you want to share and which not. Go to the accounts section and select privacy. You will be getting all the options to share or not.

7) If you find some scam online then make sure that you don’t click it, instead there is a report link which you can click on and you can report that link automatically.

So hope so you had a good look at the same. I have tried and covered all the basic security essentials that are required for a safe facebooking. So follow them and stay protected!

How to create the batch file to lock a folder

1. Copy and paste the following codes in a notepad file.

cls
@ECHO OFF
title Folder Confidential
if EXIST "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" goto UNLOCK
if NOT EXIST Confidential goto MDLOCKER
:CONFIRM
echo Are you sure you want to lock the folder(Y/N)
set/p "cho=>"
if %cho%==Y goto LOCK
if %cho%==y goto LOCK
if %cho%==n goto END
if %cho%==N goto END
echo Invalid choice.
goto CONFIRM
:LOCK
ren Confidential "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
attrib +h +s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
echo Folder locked
goto End
:UNLOCK
echo Enter the Password to unlock folder
set/p "pass=>"
if NOT %pass%== Replace this red portion by Your password goto FAIL
attrib -h -s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
ren "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" Confidential
echo Folder Unlocked successfully
goto End
:FAIL
echo Invalid password
goto end
:MDLOCKER
md confidential
echo Confidential created successfully
goto End
:End

2. Save the file as “Key.bat”. You are done. When you’ll double click on the Key.bat file for first time, a folder “Confidential” will be automatically created. You can move all your confidential data in that folder.
Now to lock the folder just double click on the file “Key”. You will get a confirmation message in Command Prompt. Type “y” to confirm. Now the folder “Confidential” will be locked and hidden.

If you want to access the contents of the folder then again double click on the batch file, you have created. Immediately you will be prompted to enter your password. After that you can access the folder “Confidential”.

By this process you can password protect the folder and no body can access the folder without the password. But still there is some risk. If some body is a computer savvy then he can easily retrieve the password from your batch file. He can easily find the password by choosing “Edit” option from the right-click context menu.
So, to prevent from that option you can make an executive file of the batch file. The facility of the executive file is that no body can’t see the source code of an exe file. Here I’ve described the process of converting the batch file to executive(.exe) file.


At first you need a compiler that compiles the batch file to an executive file.
1. Download Bat to Exe converter
2. Now run the application and put the source path of the batch file, then the target executive file name with location.

3. Click on “Compile” button.
That’s all. Delete the batch file “key.bat”. You can now protect or access the folder by using the exe file (key.exe). Your data is now fully protected.
The above method works in XP, Vista and Windows 7.
Update: After getting some feedback from the reader we modified the code and it should work properly. You can also get the code by clicking on the text version link.
While password protecting a folder ensures the security of important data, password protect images to make them private and inaccessible.

At Last ……

I suggest Do Not make The Exe Using The Exe maker Its optional….
But Put The “Key.bat” In Some Safe Location like of Ur Making the folder Password Protect In ur External Hdd …..Put key File in some hidden folder of ur Laptop or Desktop ….
Understand……………………….
