Im migrating to my new website. Visit me @ http://finnyabraham.com
News on ZDNet.com will be of the form http://education.zdnet.com/?p=1550 and will take longer to load even in higher
bandwidth connections. A remedy for this issue is to view the page in mobile view. Here is how to transform the default
ZDNet.com url into mobile view url.
Note the required url
(In the case i use the url http://education.zdnet.com/?p=1550)
Now insert wp-mobile.php before ?p=id in the url.

I own a slower internet connection and computer. So i need not have to waste my resource and bandwidth for monster FTP
Clients. So I use DOS to transfer files over FTP. Following will be a description on transferring files over FTP.
In the run prompt, enter cmd and press OK
Now the Command Prompt appears. In it, type ftp and press enter.
FTP prompt now appears.
In order to create a connection with a server, we use the open command. The syntax is as follows.
open
example: open heracles.dreamhost.com
Now a prompt for Username comes in. Enter your username and press enter. Next a prompt for Password comes in. Enter your
password there and on enter you will be connected to FTP.
To list directories and files, we use the command ls
To change a directory, use command cd
To change local directory, use lcd
We must first specify the type of file transfer. The two transfer options are ascii and binary.
DOS FTP also supports uploading and downloading multiple files. It also has wildcard support.
To upload a single file, use the command put and for multiple files, use the command mput
Syntax:
Single file: put
Multiple file using wildcards: mput <*filename>
example: put index.htm or mput *.htm
You have a provision to rename the file if you are transferring a single file. To do it use the syntax, put
Downloading files is similar to uploading; instead the case that we use get and mget commands. The art of
renaming files is also available for single file downloads.
example: get index.htm or mget *.htm
To close the connection to server, use the command quit or bye
From Firefox 3 Beta4, some Extensions which causes firefox to crash are blocked by default. You will be informed that it is
disabled for your protection.
If you are sure that the extension will not cause Firefox to crash, here is how to enable that blocked extension. It is
simple; editing of a single xml file.
In the run prompt, enter %appdata% and press OK
Navigate to Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\rvox9nsf.default
A file named blocklist.xml will be located in the directory. We have to edit blocklist.xml to re-enable the blocked Firefox
extensions.
Open blocklist.xml in any text editing program; I here use Wordpad.
Each blocked item will be between
extension.
For removing the Low Disk Space warning, i use here a registry trick. Editing the Windows Registry may damage your system, if
not done properly. So if you are not well experienced on using Windows Registry, Click Here to download the automated .reg
file and run. If you have a working knowledge on Windows Registry, follow the given steps.
In the run prompt, enter regedit
The Registry Editor becomes active.
Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Create a New DWORD Value and enterNoLowDiskSpaceChecks in the Name field.
Double Click on the DWORD Value create and enter 1 in the Value Data text box and press OK
Now onwards you will not be shown the annoying Low Disk Space baloon.
For non-premium Rapidshare users, a countdown tickers and only after its finishing, we will be able to begin the download. I
found a simpler trick to ignore the rapidshare countdown timer. Enter the following javascript in your browsers address bar
when the countdown begins.
javascript:alert(c=0) or javascript:var c=0;
Now you must have ignored the countdown. If find useful, comment on working of this trick.
