-: Hide EXE File into JPG :-This is a good trick to hide your exe files into a jpg file..! How about sending a trojan or a keylogger into your victim using this trick..?? 1) Firstly, create a new folder and make sure that the options 'show hidden files and folders' is checked and ‘hide extensions for known file types’ is unchecked. Basically what you need is to see hidden files and see the extension of all your files on your pc. 2) Paste a copy of your server on the new created folder. let's say it's called 'server.exe' (that's why you need the extension of files showing, cause you need to see it to change it) 3) Now you’re going to rename this 'server.exe' to whatever you want, let’s say for example 'picture.jpeg' 4) Windows is going to warn you if you really want to change this extension from exe to jpeg, click YES. 5) Now create a shortcut of this 'picture.jpeg' in the same folder. 6) Now that you have a shortcut, rename it to whatever you want, for example, 'me.jpeg'. 7) Go to properties (on file me.jpeg) and now you need to do some changes there. 8) First of all delete all the text on field 'Start In' and leave it empty. 9) Then on field 'Target' you need to write the path to open the other file (the server renamed 'picture.jpeg') so you have to write this :- 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c picture.jpeg' 10) The last field, 'c picture.jpeg' is always the name of the first file. If you called the first file 'soccer.avi' you gotta write 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c soccer.avi'. 11) So what you’re doing is when someone clicks on 'me.jpeg', a cmd will execute the other file 'picture.jpeg' and the server will run. 12) On that file 'me.jpeg' (shortcut), go to properties and you have an option to change the icon. Click that and a new window will pop up and you have to write this :- %SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll . Then press OK. 13) You can set the properties 'Hidden' for the first file 'picture.jpeg' if you think it’s better to get a connection from someone. 14) But don’t forget one thing, these 2 files must always be together in the same folder and to get connected to someone they must click on the shortcut created not on the first file. So rename the files to whatever you want considering the person and the knowledge they have on this matter. 15) For me for example I always want the shortcut showing first so can be the first file to be opened. So I rename the server to 'picture2.jpeg' and the shortcut to 'picture1.jpeg'. This way the shortcut will show up first. If you set hidden properties to the server 'picture.jpeg' then you don’t have to bother with this detail but I’m warning you, the hidden file will always show up inside of a Zip or a Rar file. 16) So the best way to send these files together to someone is compress them into Zip or Rar. 17) inside the Rar or Zip file you can see the files properties and even after all this work you can see that the shortcut is recognized like a shortcut but hopefully the person you sent this too doesn’t know that and is going to open it. -: Running Multiple Instances of Yahoo Messenger :-If you are using Yahoo! Messenger v8.0 or above, YahooMulti.reg will let you run multiple copies of Yahoo Messenger. At the same time which will allow you to login multiple ID’s at the same time. 1) Open Registry Editor (regedit.exe) Click Start > Run and then type 'regedit' press enter. 2) Then Look For- HKEY_CURRENT_ USER\Software\yahoo\ pager\Test. 3) Then change this value of plural to like this- “Plural”=dword: 00000001 Add a Background Image To the Drives Window
Isn’t It cool when You Add a Background in the AttachedDrives and Give Your Explorer a dashing Look.

So enjoy Windows 8 reimagined... How to Save money with Online Programming
Those
that are looking for ways to cut outrageous cable costs may be able to
do just that and simultaneously give their fancy (and expensive)
television sets the boot thanks to the ever-growing popularity of online
streaming programming. Last week Amazon was added to the likes of Hulu
and Netflix—companies that offers customers an alternative to
traditional cable-viewing. If you already own
a lab top/desktop and are looking to save a few bucks, look at what these different online streaming companies have to offer:
Hulu
The
online programming offered through Hulu is completely free. While
there are a variety of different shows offered, a good chunk of them are
from ABC, NBC, and Fox. Typically TV shows aren’t posted until a day
after its regular programming air date and only stays online for about a
week or so, but it’s an easy and cheap way to catch your favorite shows
on the weekend, for example. There is also a database for free
movies—be warned that these movies are typically outdated. In addition,
since programming and movies are free, viewers must watch 30-second
commercials throughout the programming. If you want to have access to
past seasons and episodes, viewers can pay a $7.99 monthly fee and
upgrade to HuluPlus. The downside? Commercials and ads will still flood
your programming.
Netflix
While
Netflix is well-known for movie rentals, it is also another great way
for viewers to catch up on their shows. For $9.99 a month viewers can
have unlimited access to old and new recently released movies and shows
and can have some on instant streaming—no 1 to 2 day wait required.
Instant streaming programming is commercial and ad free.
Amazon On-Demand
Unlike
its competitors, Amazon’s online “free” video streaming is only offered
to its “Prime” costumers, which technically makes the “free” part
non-existent. This is because in order to gain access to about 4,000 TV
episodes and 1,600 movies and become a prime member, you need to pay a
$79 membership fee. This may seem a little steep, but compare it to the
average cable bill which can be as much as a whopping $150, and this
deal seems like a steal. If you aren’t particularly an entertainment
junkie but just want to get your fix every now and then, you can also
opt to purchase or rent recently released movies and TV show seasons
individually. With this option, prices will vary depending on whether
you are buying or renting and how new the show/movie is. But just for
measure, prices usually range anywhere from $3.99 to $14.99 per
download. There are no commercials.
How to: Recover MOST of scratched CD data disks
How to recover MOST of scratched CD data discs
I,today,
learn an old technique to how to recover a damaged or scratched cd
disks with very minute loss of data. In this case i have a game with a
chunck of 4 mb lost with a scratch in CD1 Install. Here we cover some
special techniques of how to create a full working CD from the scratched
one.
First some tools will be needed:
1. Alcohol 120%
2. UltraISO 3. Windows XP/2000 (not tested on 95/98/me) 3. Small piece of cotton 4. Dry cleaner paper 5. Finally, oil for cooking.
First step – preparing the CD
Get the cotton and drop some water, start cleaning vertically the surface of CD.
Do
it 3 times and dry the water with a piece of dry cleaner paper. With a
new piece of cotton, drop some oil for cooking and start to wet the
surface like you are washing the CD with the oil. Dry carefully now.
Some particles of oil will stay on the microsurface of the scrath. It’s
okay.
Seems the oil helps the laser of the CD/DVD driver to read
the surface again. Sure this will work with small unreadable scratchs –
some hard scratchs loose parts of the surface of the CD where we have
data and it’s lost forever.
But if it is loosed try anyway. Whith this tip 80% of the small scratched CD’s coud be recovered.
Second Step – testing the CD
With
Alcohol 120% make an ISO – image making wizard – and lets see if the
app can read the loosed surface. In my case Alcohol 120% had recovered
60% of the data.
This is not enough. Have tryed other appz, they
do not recover all the data. But the CD/DVD driver laser CAN recover all
data in this case. the data is still there, what we do?
Third step – making the new CD
With
the main copy system of windows explorer you can do it. Just create one
folder with the same name of the CD label for future burn reference,
and copy the CD content to the folder.
When the CD copy process
find the scratch, in majority of the cases, it’s slow down the reading
and will recover ALL loosed data.If not, it just tell you there’s an
unreadable sector.
In this case your CD is lost. But it’s not my
case, finally windows explorer got all the data from the scratch and
made a copy in the folder with the ultraISO, wrote the original CD
label, drop the content of the folder and save as Iso. You can Test the
new CD just mounting the iso in the Alcohol 120%.
In my case i did
ISO of the two discs from MAX PAYNE 2 and tested installing from the
mounted ISO. Works like a charm. I got the 4 mb lost again. So, I have
burned the CD and now i have a working copy from the scratched one.
Sounds
too bizzarre, but works. Course you can jump the cleaning process and
try to copy the content with Windows explorer. But in my case did not
work without oil.
Try it and have fun.
* Note: This is not a
new trick. It is a very old trick. I,today, just came to know about
this that’s why i wrote it so that you may come to know about this too.
If problem persists, contact me.
KGB Archiver: Compress 1GB File to 10MB
KGB Archiver is free and open source software which compresses 1GB file to 10MB file.
Data compression utility of this software is based on PAQ6 algorithm which has AES-256 powerful encryption. KGB archiver works on both Windows and Linux operating system. Compression ratio of this software is very high. Due to high compression levels, time to compress a file goes high as the size of the file increases and compression ratio may vary depending on the format of the file.When a file is compressed with KGB Archiver it saves it with own extension and at the time of decompression it automatically recognizes the file format. The only limitation of KGB archiver is, decompressed file cannot be open or extract with other compression softwares. You can also choose any compression level (high, maximum, normal, low, very weak) to compress a file but the compression time will vary according to your selected compression level. Note: If you are compressing any file with KGB archiver and sending the comprssed file to your friends then he must have KBG archiver installed on his computer to decompress the file. System Requirements:Due to high compression ratio of KGB archiver, you need to have a decent system hardware configuration
Features of KGB Archiver
Note: This KBG Archiver software cannot compress video format files.

Increase your Utorrent speed by 80%
Lets get started. If you dont have Utorrent, Download it from here
Remember to increase
torrent speed please disable firewall before you use it. Now Open it up
and follow these screenshots tutorial:
For connection setting I Here checked enable upnp port mapping, enable NAT-PMP port mapping and i use 45682 for random port.
![]()
Checked use additional upload slots if upload speed <90% and follow the value setting like screenshot.
![]()
Checked
for enable dht network, enable dht for new torrent, enable local peer
discovery, ask tracker for scrape information, enable peer change,
allow incoming legacy connections and enable outgoing protocol
encryption.
![]() ![]()
Setup net.max_halfopen to 90
![]() ![]()
That is it, You have just tweaked the speed of Utorrent by 80%
Remember, If the torrent has no seeds, This will not work!Boost and increase internet speed![]() By Default, XP reserves 20% of your bandwidth for it’s own use. This is a crying shame and should be undone immediately. To do this, you will not require any additional software, just follow the steps below. Access the Group Policy Editor. This can be done by typing gpedit.msc in the Run box (Start, and then Run). You will now be looking at something like this. Navigate to Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Network/QOS Packet Scheduler using the pane on the left side. In the left pane, there should be a Setting with the name Limit reservable bandwidth, right-click this and select properties. Now this might seem a bit weird, as the State will say “Not Configured” but Windows by default will reserve 20%. So the trick is to set it to reserve 0%. You can do this by clicking enabled and then setting the Bandwidth Limit % to 0. Hit OK then close the Group Policy Editor. That’s it! You’re done with the first tweak. Just a quick side note here, there are lots of other little things you can change easily using the policy editor. Feel free to wander around! Tweak 2: Optimizing TCP/IP settings This next tweak is going to require a piece of freeware called SG TCP Optimizer. This nifty little utility will optimize the manner in which your PC sends and receives data packets, which will as a result speed up your connection. Though It is most effective for broadband connections, it works for just about any type of connection. Download SG TCP Optimizer. You don’t need to install it, just double-click and it will run. That is quite an intimidating interface, but we won’t be touching most of it. Under the General Settings tab, just drag the slider to match your connection’s download speed. Then, at the bottom of the same window, select the “Optimal Settings” radio button and click “Apply Changes”. You will now be looking at a window. Make sure that the “Backup” tick box is ticked and then click OK. All that’s left is to reboot your system, in order to apply the changes. You will be prompted to do so. Once your system has rebooted, surf around for a while. If for whatever reason you feel your connection has been affected negatively, then fear not, for the changes you made can be undone. Start SG TCP Optimizer, click File and choose restore backed up settings. This will bring up a dialog box where you can navigate to where you downloaded the program. There, you will find a file with the extension .spg with a filename containing the date. For example If you applied the changes on the 21st of February “sg_backup_2008-02-21-xxxx.spg” would be the filename, where the xxxx is any number. Once you find this file select it and press open. This should bring to a dialog box similar to the one shown above. Click OK and reboot. Your original settings are now restored. How to make your system work faster– Increase Virtual RamIf you want to use your system at much faster speed, you can now do it by increasing its virtual memory.
