Strong Windows 7 sales boost Microsoft profits

 Software maker Microsoft recorded a bigger-than-expected 60 percent jump in quarterly profit, thanks to strong sales of its latest operating system, Windows 7.

The company also said it expected business technology spending to recover this year.

"We didn't see enterprise spending growth in our fiscal second quarter just ended," Chief Financial Officer Peter Klein said.


"However, our general view is a recovery will occur starting this calendar year and gradually over the next several years," he added.

Microsoft's net profit came to US$6.7 billion, or 74 cents per share, for its fiscal second quarter, versus US$4.2 billion, or 47 cents per share, a year ago.

"Make no mistake, these were very good results out of Microsoft. Expectations were heightened ever the last few weeks, given Q4 PC shipments and good numbers from Intel," said Andy Miedler, analyst at Edward Jones.

The company stopped making specific profit or revenue forecasts in January 2009, citing market volatility. But Windows 7 has proved to be Microsoft's strongest-selling operating system to date after the disappointing Vista. PC sales grew 15.2 percent last quarter.

Microsoft's revenue rose 14 percent to US$19.02 billion, including US$1.71 billion of deferred revenue from the Windows 7 launch in October. Excluding that, sales were US$17.31 billion.

The company's stock has risen 62 percent over the past 12 months, outstripping a 40 percent gain in the Nasdaq.

"Last year the [Microsoft's] stock was a big outperformer. A lot of people think the stock has already had its run," said Jane Snorek, technology analyst at First American Funds. "But I think with PCs doing this well and a new Office coming in June, that the stock can still outperform. I think Office can be a big hit."

Cell Phone Bans Don't Work? Try Duct Tape

A new study by the Highway Loss Data Institute indicates that laws preventing motorists from texting or using handheld cell phones while driving haven't led to a large drop in the number of vehicle crashes. While the findings are questionable, let's say, for the sake of argument, that they're true.

So if bans on texting and handheld phones don't work, what's the next step? Two words: Duct tape.

We're all aware that duct tape has 101 valuable uses, and probably a lot more. Its potential as a transportation safety tool has yet to be tested, however. It's time we gave it a test drive.

I propose a federal law requiring all drivers and passengers to apply a thick strip of duct tape to their mouths upon entering a vehicle. No one could speak, of course, and the safety benefits of this simple procedure would be enormous.

Though only a partial solution, duct tape would prevent many distractions that plague drivers and lead to vehicle accidents.

Benefits of the mandatory Duct Tape Law include:

Nokia 5233@ INR 7500

Finnish mobile phone manufacturer, quietly revealed details about the latest Nokia device 5233. This is another model with a touchscreen.

Nokia 5233 has virtually the same functions as the Nokia 5230, but has no 3G service. Other features of the Nokia 5233 touch screen is 3.2 inches diagonal, 2 megapixel camera, FM radio, 3.5 mm audio jack, GPS and Ovi Maps.

It was known already, the Nokia 5233 would occur in India at a price tag of Rs.7500 that means the handset is Rs 1000/- less than the Nokia 5230.


Nokia 5233 is available in two colors – silver and black and it runs on Symbian S60v5 operating system and 434 MHz ARM processor.

Some other notable feature are 3.5 mm audio jack, FM radio with RDS, A-GPS, audio and video player, Photo editor, Flash Lite 3.0, downloadable games, upto 7 hours talktime.

The customer who demands for touchscreen and doesn’t require 3G connectivity than this phone will prove to be best bet.

5 Great Websites For Free Online Backup Storage

I can’t possibly emphasize this message any more than I already do: backing up your files is essential. Period. If you do not ensure that your files are backed-up in a safe, reliable environment, then you are at risk of losing everything. Can you really afford losing those precious family vacation photos, your giant music collection you’ve paid hundreds of dollars for or your dissertation that’s going to get you that degree and secure your future?

Many people chose to backup their files using an external hard drive or other physical medium. That’s fine, just as long as it’s stored off-site, ideally in a fire-proof safe, and that you update this backup regularly. Alternatively, many people prefer to use the internet to ensure the safety of the contents on their hard drive. That’s fine too, just as long as you use a service which isn’t going to let you down.


The aim of this post is to provide you with a list of sites which you will help you find a reliable website upon which you can safely backup your files online - for free.

1) SkyDrive 25GB - Many people argue that Apple easily beats Microsoft when it comes to operating systems, but you’ve got to commend what Microsoft has done for technology. Microsoft has mind-boggling funding behind it, and has been around for years. It’s safe to say it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. Therefore, you can rest assured that your files will be secure, and won’t disappear off the face of the Earth when you backup with SkyDrive. SkyDrive is powered by Windows Live, and owned by Microsoft. If you have a Windows Live account - and if you don’t, you can easily create one, which is completely free - you can obtain 25GB of free web storage. Not only this, it has an easy-to-use interface, and you have the option of making your uploaded files completely private using your Live account, available to who you specify or to the world. Probably the most reliable site of those listed here, and accessible from anywhere.

2) Mozy Free 2GB- Much smaller than what SkyDrive is offering, but some find Mozy more aesthetically-pleasing, more up-to-date and easier to use. Mozy offers 2GB of free backup storage, which should be enough if you’re only wanting to backup your work documents or files, rather than your entire collection. However, you can purchase unlimited backup from the site - for just $5 per month, which is fantastic value. Their security is second-to-none, and they really do mean it when they say they take your privacy seriously. You do get a sense of security and reliability when using Mozy, and the site offers scheduled backups. 

3) ADrive 50GB - Double what Windows Live’s SkyDrive has to offer, but some would prefer SkyDrive because of its standardization and familiar layout. ADrive’s free plans lack support and is supported by advertisements, but they do claim to offer the largest capacity of free storage on the internet, and they are well established. Of course, for a free service offering such a large amount of free storage space, it makes sense to have advertisements to allow the service to continue. ADrive claims to be the leader of online storage, and the service has received many awards and widespread press coverage. It’s a great choice if you want a large capacity, and it’s not very difficult to operate either. Not only this, but you can upload any file type.

4) MediaMax 2GB - With an incredibly interface, this service is a great choice if you want an easy way of transferring your files back and forth and want a professional look. What’s a little bit upsetting, however, is that this site only provides users with 2GB of free storage, so if you know you’re going to be uploading large files, then you’re probably going to be better off using ADrive or SkyDrive. The site does, however, allow you to schedule your backups of certain, important and usually frequently-updated files, and the site keeps 30 of your backups, which means that if you want to go to an earlier version of a file, you can. This is particularly helpful if you have had a fault or error.

5) G.ho.st 15GB - Not hugely known on the internet, but it seems to be rather reliable and offers a cool 15GB of space. G.ho.st itself (and yes, it is a domain hack), is an online operating system, but has the perks of coming with a great opportunity for free storage. G.ho.st actually stands for Global Hosted Operating SysTem, and is quite impressive itself, but that is for a different post. It’s been granted as very secure by Amazon, and has a “lite” version for your mobile phone. Just like transferring files from one folder in your computer to another, I’m rather pleased with this.

6) Google Storage 1GB - Just this month, Google has decided to make its own online storage available to its users who have a Google Account. The layout isn’t fantastic - in fact, it isn’t really a website. I’d say it’s more of a Google feature which has been pushed into the corner of the search giant’s empire. Plus, it only offers 1GB, so you don’t get a ton of space. I suppose the best part about this solution is that you have virtually no chance that your files will just disappear from the internet, and they are considered being very safe, given they are being held by one of the world’s biggest companies. It’s probably the reliability which makes this a decent choice.

Of course, all of these websites offer paid packages which seem to be quite reasonable, and many offer unlimited storage for just $5 a month. Google offers additional storage for $0.25 per GB per year, which is also quite reasonable, and you’ll have the security of being with a big name. Perhaps one of the biggest problems in the online storage market is that there have been a number of cases over the years where a company has started to take a considerable market share of those requiring online backup storage, and then that company closes down. This has resulted in people having to find another source, or in some of the smaller cases, loosing their online files entirely. It’s simply down to which sort of name you work with. For quite obvious reasons, I couldn’t see Microsoft or Google’s online presence going into a void any time soon.

Which free online storage service do you use? Do you have any additions for the list? Have you had any experiences with the services listed in this post? What’s your opinion? Have you had a bad experience with a hard drive crash? Have you lost everything and wished you’d backed up? Let me know, in a comment.

Gameday, which lets you watch baseball games graphically, shows player stat cards, video highlights as the game goes on, box scores, field dimensions, and batter/pitcher matchups. You can also watch games live from MLB.com enhanced with many of the same features.

Apple iPad: UK phone operators vie for deals


Steve Jobs has fired the starting pistol in the race to bring the iPad to the UK, with several mobile phone operators and retailer Carphone Warehouse interested in selling Apple's new tablet computer to consumers this side of the Atlantic.

Jobs announced on Wednesday that a version of the device that can access
3G mobile phone networks as well as Wi-Fi will start shipping in the US in April under a deal with AT&T, which already supplies the iPhone in North America. Mobile phone companies in the UK – O2, Orange, T-Mobile and Vodafone – are looking to strike similar deals in Europe ahead of a launch later in the year.

Andrew Harrison, UK chief executive of the Carphone Warehouse, welcomed news of the Apple device, adding: "To me, the really interesting thing is what we are seeing is devices designed with how the consumer uses the internet very much in mind, rather than just a computer that was made for business use trying to fit the consumer."

Carphone Warehouse, Europe's largest independent mobile phone retailer, was Apple's exclusive third party retail partner for the iPhone and Harrison obviously hopes to repeat the experience with the iPad.

"Our perspective is we play in the world of connectivity and particularly mobile connectivity and this device fits well within that; we think there will be a whole range of them. This is an extension of a smartphone perhaps even more than it being a smaller PC. It is much more in the territory that we operate in," he said

"We have done a phenomenal job with the iPhone and smartphones in general and bringing connectivity is something we would be delighted to talk to Apple about."

But the AT&T deal shows that Apple may be approaching the involvement of mobile phone operators with the iPad in a very different way from the way that it uses them for the iPhone.

Traditionally, mobile phone companies "subsidise" the up-front cost of hardware – usually mobile phones, but increasingly laptops – in return for persuading a customer to sign up to a long-term contract. The operator assumes it will make the subsidy back over the life of the contract. That is how the iPhone is sold in the US and Europe, while even Google followed this model with its Nexus One, signing a deal with T-Mobile in the US which sees the phone's $529 price tag fall to $179 in return for signing a contract. Vodafone is expected to sell the Nexus One in the UK at roughly the same price point as the iPhone.

Already several UK mobile phone companies subsidise the cost of laptops to persuade customers to sign up for long-term mobile broadband contracts. Anyone signing up to a two-year mobile broadband deal with T-Mobile at £40 a month, for instance, gets a free Sony Vaio laptop worth £499.

But with the iPad, Apple has forced AT&T to give up on persuading customers to sign long-term contracts. Instead the iPad will effectively be available on what in Europe would be seen as a 30-day rolling SIM-only contract such as those offered by O2 and Vodafone.

Customers have two pricing options in the US, a mere 250MB of data for $14.99 a month, or unlimited data for $29.99 a month. That means that while the basic version of the iPad – without wireless capabilities – will start at $499, the 3G version of the device will start at $629. Under the traditional operator model, the 3G version of the device would have been cheaper.

"It does not look as though it has the traditional subsidy model," said Harrison. "If you put Wi-Fi and 3G in it, it is actually more expensive not less expensive."

In a note on AT&T following the news, Jonathan Schildkraut, analyst at Jefferies & Co investment bank said the tariffs are "in line with the current data add-on options available with voice packages, and well below the roughly $60 plans currently offered by wireless carriers for a laptop card. The prepaid plan can be activated directly from the iPad and, because there is no contract, can be canceled at anytime."

"Given the prepaid nature of the service associated with this product, including the no contract/cancel at any time feature, we expect that AT&T would not have to subsidise the device. We would view this as a significant positive – given the large subsidy associated with the iPhone (estimated at up to $400). Additionally, this would imply better overall economics around the device (without the initial margin dilution of an iPhone sale)," he said
 "The flip-side, of course, is that the usage patterns of this type of device are unknown. However, given the multimedia capabilities, and the video functionality in particular, we would assume that iPad could be another network hog. This could drive incremental congestion issues on AT&T's already strained network – leading to further network dissatisfaction, and potentially a need for ongoing higher levels of capital spending".

In other words, not getting people to sign a contract gives the operator very little chance to factor the potential cost of future infrastructure investment into its pricing plans. Then there is the worry that applications which allow internet telephony – such as Truphone and Skype, which are already available on the iPhone and will port to the iPad – will further erode the network's profitable voice and text traffic.

Apple initially sold the iPhone through exclusive partners in the US, UK, France and Germany, but for the iPad the British mobile phone companies are not expecting Apple to offer exclusivity. None of the mobile phone companies was willing to comment on the iPad.

Incidentally, anyone who already has a wireless broadband "dongle" under a long-term contract and is thinking about buying an iPad and putting the SIM card from their laptop card into the iPad will be disappointed. The iPad is the first mass-market mobile device to use micro-Sim cards, which are smaller than the current range of Sim cards and were designed for small consumer gadgets such as Birmingham-based Lok8u's range of wireless-enabled wrist watches.

The iPad is also likely to prove a major headache for makers of similar devices, especially Taiwan's Asus which recently announced plans for its own tablet, and Nokia which last year unveiled a "booklet" computer with built-in 3G. There are also understood to be several tablet computers running Google's Android software in the works, with France's Archos rumoured to be planning to release one in March.

Apple iSlate to get Jack Bauer as a co-star in 24?


Apple’s Tablet is bound to become this year’s gadget must-have if it does appear later today but it seems like 24’s perennially imperilled hero Jack Bauer could be among the first to get an Apple iSlate. Is the Apple iSlate/iPad/iTablet ready for its close-up?

Fox, makers of 24, are apparently in the process of doing a deal with Apple to get the Apple iSlate into a forthcoming episode of the time sensitive terror drama. The rumour comes from a pretty credible source. Rodney Charters, 24’s director of photography who’s been tweeting his excitement.

Charters followed a major American publisher in tipping the cat out of the bag with a fairly matter-of-fact tweet: “Hmmm looks like we may get an iSlate into Jack’s hands for Ep 20. Getting giddy with excitement.”

The current series of 24 is up to episode 5 but Charters subsequently changed his estimate to suggest the Apple iTablet will actually take a starring role in episode 22 which would most likely hit screens in May but be filmed far earlier.

Apple and Fox have had a long-standing relationship on 24. Charters notes that the show has had “Apple product placement since season 1”. In the latest season of 24 (its eighth), Apple iMacs and Macbook Pros have been prominent in the CTU office.

While Charters called the forthcoming Apple device, the iSlate, he admitted in a subsequent tweet that his choice of name was “all speculation”, going on to say: “I have no concrete knowledge, this could all be a bluff.” That suggests that Charters has heard whispers from Apple but is aware of its penchant for controlled leaks.

Oddly, despite seemingly dropping a juicy nugget about Apple’s most anticipated product ever. Charters has expressed surprise that anyone might be interested in his tweets: “Oh dear. Seems like the geeks have gone a little overboard over my speculation that Jack Bauer might get an iSlate.”

Check & Repair Dead Pixels in LCD Screens

Check & Repair Dead Pixels in LCD Screens

I had recently written a article on finding dead pixels on your LCD screen, and a reader questioned us if its possible to repair these dead pixels and the answer to this is that yes sometimes it is possible to repair them. On a LCD screen when you select a Screen resolution of 1280 by 800 pixels, its not just some numbers but its the numbers of pixels which would be shown on your screen. You need to think in the way 1280 small pixels are displayed aside to each other in 800 different rows. Overall there are a total of 1280×800 = 10,24,000 Pixels on your screen. Now iam sure it will be a very hard job for you to find those pixels which are gone dead. Each of these pixels are microscopic transistors which are generally not defective but because of some reasons they can go dead and its not really easy for you to fix these dead pixels normally.

Dead Pixels Finder

While you buy a New LCD screen its recommended to check out the Dead Pixels on it using the software called DPL which shows you with a small closeup photo of a dead pixel. You can click on the application while its running to change the colours of the screen and see if any pixels colour does not change, mark it as a dead one and stop poking on it trying to fix it.

3 Reasons to Choose a Free Antivirus Solution

3 Reasons to Choose a Free Antivirus Solution

They’re a must today for anyone who spends any amount of time on the Internet – with all the malicious viruses, worms and Trojans floating about on the web and looking to sabotage and destroy your computer and your data, if you don’t have a decent security package installed on your system, you’re going to end up suffering both hardware and software losses. As with any kind of software, you have both free versions and paid options with security and antivirus solutions. And contrary to popular belief, just because a software tool is free, it does not mean that it is of poor quality. You only have to take a look at the Linux operating system to know that “free” is sometimes better than expensive alternatives that must be renewed time and again. So here goes, a few reasons why free antivirus solutions are better than their pay-and-use counterparts:

  1. You don’t have to shell out money: When something is free and can be downloaded off the Internet, all you have to spend is the effort to go to the site and install it on your computer. You don’t have to spend $100 or more on a package that you can get at no cost at all. Besides, there are no recurring costs incurred in renewing your subscription every year, once your current package expires. There are no pesky reminders to renew in so many days, and you are free to do your work with nothing to renew.
  2. If anything is unsatisfactory, there’s no loss: If something goes wrong with your antivirus solution and you’re not satisfied, there’s no loss with a free solution. All you need to do is uninstall the one you’ve got and install a new free one. Besides, some companies offer you 30-day trial versions, so you could try out one for a month and then switch over to a new one before you decide to upgrade or go for a paid version that has more features and options.  
  3. Most paid security solutions are bulky and a nuisance: When I bought my notebook, it came with a year’s subscription of Norton. I decided to switch over to AVG once the year was up, and to my horror, found that I could not open Firefox or any other browser to surf the net. IE would work, and that too, sporadically. I finally had to reinstall Norton and renew my subscription at a hefty price – and even though I railed mentally against the anti-competitive tactics of Norton, I was left with no alternative. Most large security suites take up a large portion of your memory and cannot be easily removed – a few residual files remain even if you uninstall the package, causing havoc in some way or the other.
And if you’re still not satisfied with the above reasons, check out the PCMag story that rated three free antivirus software solutions and gave them top marks and the other story in The Register that tells of major paid security solutions failing the Virus Bulletin VB100 certification standard for further proof that free antivirus solutions are just as good for standard operations on your PC, if not better than most of the paid versions out there.

LimeWire Review & Info Guide

LimeWire Review & Info Guide 

What is Limewire?Limewire Logo

Transferring files from the Internet to computers is not new. Pictures, games or video files are mostly on the card. But why is Limewire computer software application stealing the show? Limewire is a small, but popular Windows software founded to aid businesses and home users for free. Its enviable reputation for free use in varied versions is what makes it different.

Operating systems that use it are Windows Vista, Windows Me, Windows XP, Windows NT, Windows 98, and Windows 95 and there are no mind boggling requirements. This is the first rate version to download your music and pictures. Limewire brings the music store to your laptop and desktop computer. This is the easiest way for buying files than stealing. It’s because the source code is free. It runs on open protocol that is free to the public.

LimeWire Peer 2 Peer TransferYou can’t believe it but Limewire is perfect. It has that content to allow for different file sharing. Peer to peer networks are not shut down by Limewire application. In P2P, when you are downloading, it means you are downloading directly from another computer. But how do you download and install Limewire?

It is not a must to have all the platforms to use Limewire. The free download fits any of your choice. In other words, you can set up the download on Windows 95 if that’s what you have.

Click options menu before you embark on downloading. Select “tools” and “options” from the menu bar. Click on “sharing”, left-hand column and delete all those shared extensions. Shared connections slow down the Internet. Delete them to speed up your Internet connection.


 

Key in the file extensions, that is not in your computer. These are real media secure files that enables you to download Limewire. Select filters, left column to check the key words. Select ignore options on suspicious files. That adult content you smile at might be junk, so don’t waste your time. Circumvent them. Go to Limewire’s main screen and select type boxes. You’ll see, “documents, “audio”, “video” and more. Type the one you want and search. If the file is not on your network, a search result brings you nothing. Meaning? No user has launched the file you are looking for. Take a breather and search later because you can only download a file if another computer is open and are sharing a file you are searching for. But a search for Limewire doesn’t have this limitation. 

How to Download LimeWire?

Visit Limewire.com which is the official website of Limewire software. Limewire offers you with 2 versions which are – Limewire Pro which costs 34.95$ & Limewire Basic which is free. The main difference between these versions is that you get fastest speed while downloading files using Pro version along with better search results, more sources searched, reliable downloads, Built-in Media Player & Multiple Operating systems support.

Once you are the official website you have the option to download the Pro or Basic version based on your requirement after which get the direct download link which is a file around 15Mb. Once you start installing the Limewire application first Java is installed which can take up some time because its downloaded from the Java website and installed. While completing the installation process you are asked to ‘Agree with Some Legal Stuff’ which tells you that Limewire Basic/Pro is a peer-to-peer program for sharing authorized files only. Copyright Laws may forbid obtaining or distributing certain copyright content. Only once you agree to these Legal Terms you can continue using Limewire whose main Interface starts.

Can we Limit the Download Speeds?

Yes Limewire allows you to set up the download speed at while files can be downloaded to your computer. Under the Tools > Options you have a Menu named as Advanced > Transfers which allows you to select the maximum numbers of files you can download simultaneously and the option to ‘Limit your download bandwidth’ in the form of a progress bar, just slide it based on your requirement.

This can be a good option if you want to download files without interrupting your work by setting up 25-50% of your total bandwidth speed, with the balance speed available for your browsing. These same settings are available for File Uploads which is applicable when you are sharing your files stored on your computer. You can also select the Internet Connection Speed from Dial Up or Broadband/Cable Internet Connection.

How to Search in LimeWire?

Limewire offers you with a Search Box which can help you to search files from the whole Limewire network directly or else based on certain categories like Audio, Videos, Images, Documents & Programs. Once you Enter the Search Keyword in the Search Box, limewire starts searching for files and gives you a whole list of files which are available for instant download. The Search Results also offer you the number of P2P Users who are sharing these files, which means that these people have the same files on their Shared Folders of their computer. 

Limewire Search Results P2P

Selecting & Downloading Files in LimeWire?

Once all the search results are loaded in the LimeWire Interface you can find that the file name, P2P users total, File properties etc are loaded. You can right click on any of these files and download them. In case you find some useless file on this Peer 2 Peer Network you can right click on it and ‘Mark as Spam’. Only problem with these searches is that by default you will find many Adult Files in the search results and a lot of Spam files. Always Click on the Size option and ignore all the small sized files because these may be Spam files which can be harmful for your PC.

Is LimeWire Legal?

Many people keep asking this question if LimeWire is Illegal or Legal to use. Lets start thinking about this in detail. First of all the software Limewire is completely Legal if its downloaded from the official website and it allows users to download and share files. Limewire is a tool which helps you to share information in the form of files with other people who are also using the same software on their computer which is Legal job. Downloading & Sharing copyright files is completely illegal and breaks all the laws because you are downloading stuff for free which you should be paying for officially but are accessing/using it for free.

Are Limewire Files Safe & Secure?

Recently there were many questions erupting about the unsafe files available on the Limewire P2P network which can be dangerous for your computer. Some of the main problems with the content in this network is that – you may be sharing some of your private or protected files on your computer by mistake which can create big problems. There may be adult content downloaded to your computer unless you configure content filters in Limewire settings. Spywares or Virus may also get downloaded to your computer while downloading other files , hence its recommended to block files with .exe, .vbs, .lnk, .bat, .sys, or .com extension under the Content Filters.

Final Talk?

Limewire software is legal but the content you download through it may be illegal. Limewire is now offering DRM-free Legal Music which can be downloaded through the music store available at store.limewire.com , the store has more than a million tracks in it with individual songs costing 0.99$ with different discounted plans for users who download many songs. The packages range like ‘Platinum Plan’ costing 20$ every month for 75 songs download. Limewire cannot tell you which files are Legal and which are Illegal, hence its upto you to decide it. You are the user, read all the rules and proceed towards the downloads.

Free Registry Repair Software & Registry Cleaner

Free Registry Repair Software & Registry Cleaner

Once you install a new software on your computer, Registry Entries are added to the Windows Registry and these are in most cases left, even when you Uninstall the softwares. After a few months of usage you would find that the Registry section is totally filled with useless, broken and un-required registry entries which have to be removed. We had previously covered articles on how to Clean Computer Registry using software’s like Ccleaner. In this article we are going to review a free Registry Cleaning software which is totally free and has no advertisements in the form of Trojans, website shortcuts etc.

Called as the Eusing Free Registry Cleaner, is a portable application which is sized less than 1mb in size and which is compatible with Windows XP, Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows 9.x, Windows Me, Windows Vista[download]. There would be many listings which would be linking to no longer valid file extensions, invalid file paths, invalid ActiveX Controls, points to missing DLLs which would make the Registry become very big filled with junk which would slow down your PC and also lead to regular computer crashes. This software would do the job in just two steps under which first it would scan your Registry and then after recognizing all the invalid entries it would remove them under the name of repairing the Registry.


Once you have installed the application, you will be asked to Register and make a payment of around 15$, though this is optional because the software developers are looking for some kind of payments in the form of Donations, in order to support their other software developments and this is not a bad deal if you really like this software’s functionality. If not, you can just click on the Skip Button and then move forward to the next main screen of Eusing Registry Cleaner.

After clicking on the ‘Scan Registry Issue’ button, the software took around 5 minutes to completely scan all the entries and giving out a report. While i compared the same results using Ccleaner, i found that Ccleaner reported less invalid entries which is why Eusing version is a lot better in removing invalid entries and fixing your computer. Since Ccleaner is limited to only a few files checking, this software completely checks multiple sections on your computer and gives you a detailed report of the same. As you can see below, when the scan was completed i got a report with 797 problems on my computer which had to be fixed.

Scan Registry Issue

Next, you need to move to the option of ‘Repair Registry Issue’ under which the software would try to fix all the problems. This wont take more than a few seconds maximum and a report would be shown with a comment which says – Some Registry keys or values will be created automatically even if they were removed by the software. So if you have those keys or values, you can not get 0 problems in the next scan.

Eusing Free Registry Cleaner

Since the software would be removing lot many entries there are chances that the computer would have problems sometimes, and because of this it would allow you to revert back to the previous version of your Registry in case you get errors on the PC Restart. Once you click on the ‘Repair Registry Issue’ the software would automatically take a Backup of the whole Registry, next which can be found under the option of ‘Restore Previous Registry’.

Restore Repair Registry

More features include a option available in the Menu called as ‘Startup Manager’ which will allow you to enable or disable startup items to make sure you can increase the speed of your computer start up. You can also check out the Language option because this software is available in more than 20 different languages.

Increase Computer Startup Speed with Startup Delayer

Increase Computer Startup Speed with Startup Delayer

Whenever you start your computer, you will have to wait upto 2 minutes normally for all the applications to run and make sure that the PC won’t hangup in the middle. The reason for this delay is the huge number of software applications which start and run in the background most of which are not really required to run when your computer starts. When these software’s start loading they use most of your RAM and CPU time delaying your other work, hence here is a solution for this which can help you in avoiding the start up programs for some time. 





The application is called as Startup Delayer which is available as a free download and easy to understand and use interface. You can directly disable most of the startup programs but its essential for your computer to run these, hence its better to delay their processing instead of totally disabling them. The software is compatible with Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/XP64/Vista and allows you to setup the time after which it should allow the different programs to run.

Delete Files from Recycle Bin with BinManager

Delete Files from Recycle Bin with BinManager

Windows Recycle Bin helps you in easily deleting all the useless files from your computer and also keeps the files as a backup when you normally delete from your computer. This means that in a hurry you wold just delete any file and these are stored in a section in your computer called as the Recycle Bin. Now this system has been the same in most of the Windows Operating system but it would be better if you would manage the files deletion process using a small application called as the ‘Bin Manager‘. This is a software which would add a right-click context menu, with different options helping you to delete files on different time based intervals.

Features of BinManager :
  • You’re most likely to need to restore recently deleted items.
  • For large drives, you may want to maintain smaller recycle bins than the minimum 1% permitted by Windows.
  • Large recycle bins prolong the shutdown process.



You can use this application in two modes ie In Content Menu Mode or else along with Command Line. You will be given with options of today, yesterday, 2, 3, 7, or 30 days ago files deletion when you right click on your Recycle Bin folder. Hence, its a nice tool in case you are looking for automated or selective cleaning of useless files from your computer.

Move your images between popular photo sharing services

Move your images between popular photo sharing services

There are dozens of photo storage services out there, but is there an easy way to transfer photos between them? The answer is Migratr.

With Migratr you can easily move your photo collection between nine different photo storage services (23HQ, Flickr, Gallery2, Picasa Web Albums, Phanfare, Photobucket, SmugMug, Zenfolio and Zooomr), just by following a simple step-by-step tutorial.
All you need to do is login to the correspondent services and authorize the Migratr app. You can then go back to the program and start moving your photos from one to another, either the ones you select or the complete collection.
Migratr is a really useful tool that makes changing to a new photo storage service a much less painful process. It still needs to iron out a few bugs (we had some stability issues during our testing) and maybe add photo previewing and organization functionalities.


Migratr makes changing from one photo storage service to another a much easier and more comfortable process.

Languages:
English 

OS requirements for Migratr:
OS: WinXP/Vista/7
Compatible with Windows 7

The Godfather II

The Godfather II



























Description:

After being promoted by Michael Corleone to Don of New York, players expand to new cities, as they build up their families through extorting businesses, monopolizing illegal crime rings and defeating new families in an effort to become the most powerful mob family in America. To help players manage their empire, The Godfather II introduces “The Don’s View” – an innovative strategy meta-game that allows players to oversee the entire world as they grow the family business. Using the Don’s View, players will be able to build, defend and expand their crime rings, while keeping an eye on the movements and plans of the rival families. Players will also learn to master the business of organized crime by building a family of Made Men, hiring crew, handing out orders, and promoting their best men up the ranks.

Set in a stunning open-world environment, The Godfather II expands on the popular gameplay mechanics of the first game and doubles down on the series’ signature BlackHand control scheme, which now features even more visceral hand-to-hand brutality at your fingertips, introducing a new combo system, pressure tactics and executions. In The Godfather II, players will fight alongside their hand-picked crew, who have their own skills and expertise. Each family member specializes in a specific field such as demolitions, arson, engineering, first-aid and more. As The Don you control the family, sending some of your men on missions while heading off into action with others. The combination of strategic organized crime gameplay and brutal BlackHand action sets The Godfather II apart from other open-world games.

Gta 5

Gta 5


[The above box art is not real.]
 
Grand Theft Auto 5 release date may fall in fall 2011
 
 According to my analysis. gta 5 may be fall in quater 4 of 2011. we may be lucky if it will announce in quater 4 of 2010 ( near november) . initially it will come to ps3, xbox 360 and later on other gaming consoles. you can expect a gap of 8 to 10 month for pc version.

Gta 5 may have more realistic graphics than all other games which is not a good news for all gamers specially who belongs from middle class families. High quality graphics means high quality of hardware which is really expensive and still there is no guarentee that it will work perfectly.

You can take an example of Gta 4 . Most of the gamers complaints lot of bugs in it and having lagging problems. According to me - best GTA game is GTA SANANDREAS and GTA VICE CITY. GTA 4 SUCKS.

we can hope that gta will not repeat the story of gta 4 in future and think about the gamer's pocket before creating gta 5.


Gta 4 pc

Gta 4 pc




For Niko Bellic, fresh off the boat from Europe, it is the hope he can escape his past. For his cousin, Roman, it is the vision that together they can find fortune in Liberty City, gateway to the land of opportunity. As they slip into debt and are dragged into a criminal underworld by a series of shysters, thieves and sociopaths, they discover that the reality is very different from the dream in a city that worships money and status, and is heaven for those who have them and a living nightmare for those who don’t.

Beginning with the 1997 release of the original Grand Theft Auto, the GTA series has been one of the most prolific, controversial and down right entertaining franchises in video games history. This pedigree of success guarantees that the highly anticipated eleventh game in the series, Grand Theft Auto IV, will garner at least as much attention if not more. 

Game Environments:

Based on several of the boroughs of New York City and parts of New Jersey, Liberty City, familiar to players of previous games in the series, has been entirely redesigned for GTA IV. Players can expect visible detail down to the weeds growing in the cracks in the sidewalk, cars and buildings of visibly different ages and a much greater level if verticality in the buildings and bridges that they are able to explore as Niko moves through the city streets. In addition, pedestrians in GTA IV are much more realistic. No longer simply moving cardboard cut-outs, these NPCs are intelligent, modern, human representations that laugh, cry, eat, drink, use cell phones and ATMs, and talking amongst themselves regardless of Niko’s interaction with them. 

Gameplay:


Historically GTA games have focused heavily on mission-based play, requiring successful completion of fixed tasks in order for players to progress through the game, but this has changed to a great extent in GTA IV. Players will experience an entirely new and exciting emphasis centred on the blending of on-mission and off-mission play, resulting not only in an increased sense of realism, but more interesting and unrestricted gameplay. 

Features:

Aside from the car jacking and a detailed city environment here are the new features for GTA IV :
  • Improved combat system - Now you can use cover and also a target lock system, which allows you to take out targets with greater ease and accuracy. Plus, you can engage in some hand-to-hand combat if you can't get your hands on a piece quick enough.
  • Cell phone - Not just for basic phone calls anymore. Use your in-game cell phone to receive missions via SMS, snap photos, and ZiT (tag) songs that can be downloaded exclusively on Amazon.com/mp3.
  • Free time - In between missions you can take advantage of "me" time. There are gentleman's clubs, comedy clubs, bowling alleys, and bars, which all house unique activities.
  • Take a break from the storyline - A variety of side missions allow you to help run a car service, "borrow" cop cars, assassinate targets, help solve problems for those on the street, or take to the air with stunt jumps that are scattered all over the city.
  • Control your own fate - Throughout the game choice moments will arrive causing you to make a decision that will affect relationships and money.

Multiplayer:

Give Niko a rest and create your own multiplayer "hero." GTA has added multiplayer modes allowing you to take your creation out to play online in competitive, co-op, and free form modes. Competitive mode has you fighting against the cops, jacking cars, or racing to finish odd jobs. Co-op challenges you and your friends with various tasks including Hangman's NOOSE where you are responsible for escorting a wanted kingpin to a safe extraction point. Freeform lets you and 15 others lose on Liberty City. Use this mode to hit up the bar and play virtual darts versus each other or head out to the streets and set up your own drag races. If you can dream it, you can do it in Freeform mode.
