Create Folders And Files With NO! Name

2009-05-21T01:14:00.000-07:00

This trick will allow you to create files and folders without any name.

Just follow the steps as given below :-

1) Select any file or folder.

2) Right click on it, select 'Rename' or simply press 'F2'.

3) Press and hold the 'Alt' key. While holding the Alt key, type numbers '0160' from the numpad.

Note :- Type the numbers '0160' from the numpad, that is, the numbers present on the right side of the keyboard.
Don’t type the numbers which are present on top of the character keys.

4) Press Enter and the nameless file or folder will be created.

Reason :- The file or folder that seems nameless is actually named with a single space.

But what if you want to create another nameless file or folder in the same directory ?
For this you will have to rename the file with 2 spaces.
Just follow the steps given below :-

1) Select file, Press 'F2'.

2) Hold 'Alt' key and type '0160' from the numpad.

3) Release the 'Alt' key. Now without doing anything else, again hold 'Alt' key and type '0160'.

4) Press 'Enter' and you will have second nameless file in the same directory.

5) Repeat step 3 to create as many nameless files or folders in the same directory.

(We have a problem with deleting these folders, to do so, start your computer in 'Safe Mode' and delete it from there.)

Folder Lock Without Any Software

2009-05-21T00:17:00.000-07:00

Paste the code given below in notepad and 'Save' it as batch file (with extension '.bat').
Any name will do.
Then you see a batch file. Double click on this batch file to create a folder locker.
New folder named 'Locker' would be formed at the same location.
Now bring all the files you want to hide in the 'Locker' folder. Double click on the batch file to lock the folder namely 'Locker'.
If you want to unlock your files,double click the batch file again and you would be prompted for password.
Enter the password and enjoy access to the folder.

if EXIST "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" goto UNLOCK
if NOT EXIST Locker goto MDLOCKER
:CONFIRM
echo Are you sure u 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 Locker "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 password to Unlock folder
set/p "pass=>"
if NOT %pass%==type your password here goto FAIL
attrib -h -s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
ren "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" Locker
echo Folder Unlocked successfully
goto End
:FAIL
echo Invalid password
goto end
:MDLOCKER
md Locker
echo Locker created successfully
goto End
:End

introduction - what is ICT?

2009-05-20T06:22:00.000-07:00

introduction - what is ICT?
You see the letters ICT everywhere - particularly in education. But what does it mean? Read our brief introduction to this important and fast-changing subject.

ICT is an acronym that stands for Information Communications Tecnology
However, apart from explaining an acronym, there is not a universally accepted defininition of ICT? Why? Because the concepts, methods and applications involved in ICT are constantly evolving on an almost daily basis. Its difficult to keep up with the changes - they happen so fast.
Lets focus on the three words behind ICT:
- INFORMATION
- COMMUNICATIONS
- TECHNOLOGY
A good way to think about ICT is to consider all the uses of digital technology that already exist to help individuals, businesses and organisations use information.
ICT covers any product that will store, retrieve, manipulate, transmit or receive information electronically in a digital form. For example, personal computers, digital television, email, robots.
So ICT is concerned with the storage, retrieval, manipulation, transmission or receipt of digital data. Importantly, it is also concerned with the way these different uses can work with each other.
In business, ICT is often categorised into two broad types of product: -
(1) The traditional computer-based technologies (things you can typically do on a personal computer or using computers at home or at work); and
(2) The more recent, and fast-growing range of digital communication technologies (which allow people and organisations to communicate and share information digitally)

New Internet Security Threat Report Released; More Web-Hosted Malicious Code Waiting For You Online

2009-05-20T05:37:00.000-07:00

Identity theft in the US reaches 1 in 4 households a year. One of the fastest growing ways for your private information to be stolen is right from your computer. Today's Internet Security Threat Report XIV (ISTR) from Symantec provides a detailed view of the activities of cybercriminals to leverage vulnerabilities in our computers and web activities to plant malicious code on our systems. The report shows that Web surfing was the top source of new infections in 2008. 90 percent of all threats detected by Symantec attempt to steal confidential information. Threats with a keystroke-logging capability-which can be used to steal information such as online bank account credentials-made up 76 percent of threats to confidential information, up from 72 percent in 2007. That keystroke logging technique allows a criminal to remotely track your every keyboard click and have it sent to him via the Internet. That means every account number and password, every credit card and security code, travels neatly and silently from your home to his.

Just because you are careful about the sites you visit doesn't necessarily mean that every page and every server on those sites is well maintained or patched with the latest security fixes. Your best line of defense is to always use top notch security software that will warn you if the site you are on is vulnerable or if something unexpected is being downloaded to your computer. Make sure you keep your subscriptions up-to-date and educate your children or any other computer users in your house to tell you about any alerts or security warnings.

I wish the modern world of cybersecurity could be managed with a technique as simple as "avoid dark alleys" in the online world. You shouldn't be naïve about your security in the real world either. Just as you lock your car doors at both the toniest restaurant's parking lot and at a fast food outlet, you should always be using your best security skills wherever you travel online.

What is Broad Band Technology?

2009-05-19T01:54:00.000-07:00

Why can't I have wireless Internet in my car with the same data rates as my desktop?"
Consumers expect to surf the Web, download large files, have real-time video conference calls and other tasks through a wireless communication link with the same data rates as their desktops. The consumer further expects a uniform user interface that will provide access to the wireless link whether shopping at the mall, waiting at the airport, walking around town, or driving on the highway. Current wireless infrastructures, however, as well as next generation proposals, cannot furnish the necessary bandwidth and capacity to provide these services to users traveling at highway speeds.
Mobile Wireless Enhancement to WLAN: Carucel™ The Carucel™ network employs a patented moving base station technology capable of providing broadband service to users traveling at highway speeds. As compared to 3G, this novel infrastructure provides more than two orders of magnitude increase in bandwidth of wireless channels to mobile users traveling at highway speeds.
In one implementation, the technology provides 20 Megabit per second channels to mobile users traveling at highway speeds (up to and over 100 mph) while maintaining a user capacity equal to or greater than conventional cellular systems.
This technology advantageously utilizes the 60 Ghz unlicensed spectrum, eliminating the need for costly US spectrum licenses This system can provide a huge amount of bandwidth at a cost per minute comparable to a cellular voice call.
Short distances between the base stations and the mobile units provide for reliable communication with low battery power requirements of the user's terminal.
Check out an article discussing moving base station technology:"Broadband Communication on the Highways of Tomorrow," by Charles D. Gavrilovich, Jr, IEEE Communications Magazine, April 2001, pp. 146-154.
