    Tweak UI is indeed powerful.

    The places bar can also be changed using Group Policy

    Start -> Run -> gpedit.msc -> User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Windows Explorer -> Common Open File Dialog -> Items displayed in Places Bar

    mac tips: faster leopard


    TIP: Make Leopard faster



    Wednesday, November 7, 2007



    Albert Mowatt forwarded us Unix command to run in Terminal that to improve the performance of Leopard:



    After an upgrade on several machines I noticed that the machines were sluggish, like a just fed cat. More than a few opened sometimes slower than Tiger. Then I remembered a fix!



    sudo update_prebinding -debug -root / -force



    Input your admin password (or root if your have a root). Whatever it takes to get the sudo working. Afterwards, run a few programs to test. They will spring to life. I noticed a few (acrobat, safari) still had to be opened at least once then from there on; Watch out.



    Besides, it's never a bad idea to update your prebinding anyway.



    We recommend backing up before using this procedure.


    tuh boleh dicoba yg buat upgrade...back up dulu...

    temp e-mail

    if you need a temporary e-mail address, this is the one!

    By clicking on the link below, you will be given a temporary e-mail address. Any e-mails sent to that address will show up automatically on the web page. You can read them, click on links, and even reply to them. The e-mail address will expire after 10 minutes.


    Why would you use this? Maybe you want to sign up for a site which requires that you provide an e-mail address to send a validation e-mail to. And maybe you don't want to give up your real e-mail address and end up on a bunch of spam lists. This is nice and disposable. And it's free. Enjoy!

    quite accurate!

    Mind Games

    First, get a blank piece of paper and a pen.
    P.S. When you are asked to choose names, make sure it’s people you ACTUALLY KNOW, and go with your first instincts!
    1.) First, write the numbers 1 through 11 in a column.
    2.) Then, beside numbers 1 and 2, write any two numbers you want.
    3.) Beside the 3 and 7, write down the names of members of the opposite sex if you’re straight, or the same sex if you’re gay. Remember, put down the first names that come to mind.
    4.) Write anyone’s name (like friends or family...) in the 4th, 5th and 6th spots. Don’t cheat or you’ll be upset that you did. Again, go with your first instincts.
    5.) Write down four song titles in 8, 9, 10 and 11.
    And here is the key for the game ...

    faster firefox

    how to fasten your firefox download time
    clipped from www.pctipsbox.com

    Start rendering pages faster
    Creating an nglayout.initialpaint.delay integer preference lets you control how long Firefox waits before starting to render a page. If this value isn’t set, Firefox defaults to 250 milliseconds, or 0.25 of a second. Some people report that setting it to 0 i.e., forcing Firefox to begin rendering immediately causes almost all pages to show up faster. Values as high as 50 are also pretty snappy.

    hack: backdoor access

    still trying to make it works via my firefox...
    clipped from www.smilegods.com

    Nice little trick you can use to get past the registration requirements of many websites.

    You can change your Browser Identification string in the windows registry so web sites think you are a google webbot.

    You will need to change it back to use the Windows Update site (automatic updates still work).

    save this as browser.reg:
    CODE
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Micro$oft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent]
    @="Googlebot/2.1"
    "Compatible"="+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html"


    To undo:
    CODE
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Micro$oft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent]
    @="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)


    Opera has this functionality built in. Firefox users can download this extension to change the user agent: http://useragentswitcher.mozdev.org/
