If the battery-life is low then it definitely affects the work of the user. So, one may try to reduce the power consumption, so that the battery can be used for a longer time when the laptop is not in plugged-in mode. So, for this today we are discussing a small utility which can help you in serving the purpose and will definitely reduce the amount of power that is consumed in a normal laptop.

How to Choose Strong Passwords ? [How to]

Hey friends !!! Again i had brought an informative video.Its all about the “PASSWORD".To log on into any site you need this damn password.It may be Facebook,Google,twitter, banking site,or any type of site you need this password.So it is also damn important thing to select an strong password. This video will help you how to select and password !!! Have a watch on it !!!

password_star

I hope you must have selected a best password !!! so now its time to check how strong your password is . I have written 1 post on the same topic i.e. Password strength . so visit here and find out how strong your password is ? http://abhisoftwaretips.blogspot.com/2010/12/password-meter-check-passwords-for.html

Step 1:

You can create a more secure password by starting with a simple phrase. For example, let's use a quote from Ogden Nash: "Happiness is having a scratch for every itch."

If we use the first letter of each word, and substitute 4 for "for", we get:

Hihas4ei

Step 2:

This is a reasonably strong password but we can improve it a bit by adding some special characters:

#Hihas4ei:

Step 3:

We can use our new password on several different websites by adding a prefix or suffix with a mnemonic link to a particular site. Let's use the first letter and the next two consonants in the site name.

Just to add a bit more randomness we'll alternate upper-case and lower case, and if the first character in the site name is a vowel we'll start with upper-case. To mix things up a bit more we'll use the same rule to decide whether to add the site mnemonic to the left side or the right side.

#Hihas4ei:AmZ for Amazon
fCb#Hihas4ei: for Facebook
#Hihas4ei:YtB for YouTube
dRm#Hihas4ei: for Drumbeat

This is just one possible rule for picking the prefix or suffix that you use to customize your password for each web site. Reversing the order of the letters in the suffix, using only vowels, only consonants, or adding some other characters that come to mind when you think about the web site are all possible approaches that will improve security.

While this technique lets us reuse the phrase-generated part of the password on a number of different websites, it would still be a bad idea to use it on a site like a bank account which contains high-value information. Sites like that deserve their own password selection phrase.

Now Try It Yourself !!!

Change Windows 7 Logon Screen With Ease.

Everybody watches a default logon screen when they log on ...
Isn't is Boring !!
So I found a method to change the log on screen in windows 7.


Steps :-

* Fire up registry editor (Win Key + R and then type regedit, hit enter)

* Browse HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Background , double click on key named OEMBackground and change its value to 1 (If you cannot find the path or the key go ahead and create it, remember OEMBackground is a Dword)



  • You just enabled the OEM Background functionality. Now browse to the folder C:\WINDOWS\System32\oobe\info\backgrounds. Again the folder path may not exist already, so you can go ahead and create required folders (info and backgrounds are generally not present)
     
  • Now put in any JPG file with size less than 256 kb in this folder and rename it to backgroundDefault.jpg. This file will be stretched to fit the screen, so you would want it to match the resolution of your screen so that image doesn’t look bad. 




  •  If you are unable to do so , there is a another method for you .
It is wid the help of software . in this method you just have to install the software and chose the image which you want as your logon screen.

7 ways to work faster on slow net connections.

There is nothing like trying to work when your Internet connection is slow. It’s tougher to send email, more difficult to send files to co-workers, and it’s frustrating wasting time while you wait for web pages to appear. And even with the proliferation of broadband Internet connections, there are still times you may be working on a slow connection. You might be traveling, working out of your office, still using dial-up, or your broadband connection may be acting up. But there are things you can do.
This article will show you how to increase your productivity when your connection is slow. Many of these steps are also good tips for how to increase the speed of browsing and sending and receiving email.




1. Send multiple files faster by compressing them
If you’re sending multiple files for example several files related to a project you can reduce their combined size by using a compression utility. Compressing your files can dramatically reduce the time needed to send files online, and won’t take up as much space in your (or the recipient’s) email Inbox. WinZip is one of the more common compression tools.

2. Speed browsing by turning off graphics in Internet Explorer
Graphics are important to web pages, but they also take time to download if you’re online. You can turn them off to speed your Internet browsing.

3. Send email using distribution lists
If you’re sending an email to multiple people, create a distribution list instead of listing each recipient separately. Messages are sent faster and more efficiently when you’re using a distribution list. Your company may have established procedures for creating mailing lists.

4. Work offline using Cached Exchange Mode in Outlook


Even if you lose your network connection, you can continue to working in Outlook if you’re using Cached Exchange Mode. With Cached Exchange Mode, a copy of your mailbox is stored on your computer. This copy provides quick access to your data and is frequently updated with the mail server. If you work offline, whether by choice or due to a connection problem, your data is still available to you instantly wherever you are. Cached Exchange Mode does require you to work with a Microsoft Exchange Server email account

5. Reduce email size with simple email signatures
Email signatures leave a professional stamp on your messages, but elaborate signatures that include multiple images take up a lot of unnecessary storage space in each email. Ultimately, they can slow down the time needed to send each message. Instead create distinctive text signatures combining fonts, type sizes, and colors to make your email signature smaller and quicker to transmit and receive.

6. Browse offline by saving web pages on your computer
If you use reference a web page often, save it locally to your computer. If you lose your connection or are working on a slow connection, you’ll still be able to read and find the information you need.

7. Open web pages faster by increasing your cache
If you increase the size of the Temporary Internet files cache in Internet Explorer, your computer won’t have to work so hard when you revisit web pages. Many of the images will already be downloaded on your computer, decreasing the amount of time it takes to open a page.

You can also use HTTrack software to save webpages on pc.

[How-to] install indian rupee symbol on your computer

New Currency Symbol of  India- Fifth currency in the world to have a distinct identity. The Indian Rupee has previously been denoted as INR with no symbol of its own. From now on the Indian Rupee has its own unique symbol to identify it.
The  Indian government will try that the symbol is adopted within six months in the country and globally within 18 to 24 months.

Knowing the way Indian government works, it might take some time before you can actually use the new rupee symbol in your mails or word documents. :-P
Mangalore based Foradian Technologies Pvt Ltd has created a font called Rupee Foradian. Users can download the new symbol from their blog for free.
But since this is not a standard font, avoid using it when sending a document to someone else, because if the person doesn’t have the font installed on their system, they will only see a ~ symbol.
But you need not wait that long. You could download the new rupee symbol on to your computer as a rupee font right now and use it. Indian print media have already started using the rupee symbol.
The company created a vector image of the new rupee symbol and mapped the grave accent symbol, the key just above the tab button on your keyboard, with it. This keystroke was chosen because it is rarely used.
Download the Free Rupee Font Version 2.0 from Foradian Blog and enjoy.

u can also download it from our server -->"Download"
