Remove Autorun.inf virus

Iam going to tell u two methods to remove autorun.inf virus which is common in pendrives.
Method 1:-Open the command prompt and type del /a:rhs [yourdriveletter]:\autorun.inf  .For example if your virus is in h: drive then you should type del /a:rhs H:\autorun.inf .Just restart the computer after doing that.
Method 2:-This method looks weird but very useful one .You require winrar software to make this work. After installing Winrar all you have to do is insert ur  pendrive.It pops up a autoplay window dont open it from there,dont open it from My computer or Run .Just open it from Winrar software and you could see all the Virus  files such as autorun.ini.,Newfolder.exe present in the Pendrive along with our files.

Delete the unwanted files.Mission accomplished enjoy folks

Disguise as Google bot to access sites.

Many of us have experienced this we try to search for something in google; the engine returns with a number of finds, but if you try to open the ones with the most promising content, we are confronted with a registration page instead, and the ccontent we are looking for will not be revealed to us unless we agree to a credit card transaction first or a registration is needed to access the contents....

can we solve this yes? we can let me tell u one thing that google can go in or lurk around those dark corners in the internet where we cannot.

so if we use google as our mask then we can also make it

but how google can access????

lets see for ourselves

In fact, many sites that force users to register or even pay in order to search and use their content, leave a backdoor open for the Googlebot, because a prominent presence in Google searches is known to generate sales leads, site hits and exposure.

Steps to disguise  as a Googlebot
Download a addon called User Agent Switcher .This extension adds a menu and a toolbar button to switch the user agent of the browser.Download this here User Agent Switcher .

Next goto tools>Default User Agent >Search Robots>Google bot 2.1
thats it .
Download another addon called Configuration Mania .To set More Advanced (hidden) configurations.
Download it by clicking  here Configuration Mania .

Thats it folks njoy

"AVATAR" step into another world

Many of u may wondering why am i posting about a movie in a site related to computer tips.Well to speak in technical terms this movie was made using CG (computer graphics) so why not of talking about the movie.Let's take a sneakpeak into the AVATAR world.AVATAR  is a cameo created by James cameron.This movie is really a eyecandy .Cameron decided a decade ago to make this movie but he couldnot step further due to the lack of technology then.After watching lord of the rings-return of the king,he was convinced that he can make this AVATAR movie.This movie was a $230 million baby.

To give scenes the realistic look Cameron along with his cameramen Vince  pace and Patrick campbell made a pace/cameron fusion camera system to capture image the same way human eye does.He then used a virtual camera to fly around in the scifi world to record any shot of the N'avi and merged the scenes with the real world footage.If u want to see James interview with NewYork times click here .Here am gonna show how these charecters were actually sculpted using zbrush

See the magic of computer graphics .Here you can see the actress in motion sensor suit on the right hand side and the CGI on the left hand side the motion sensors maps her actions to her CGI(computer generated imagery)

The avatar birds were simply awesome creatures .It was a superb experience watching actors riding them .Iam going to show you how these birds are made.

Notice jake is sitting on the bird trying to ryde it.wait for more avatar secrets.......

Difference between Low-level formatting and High level formatting

This is short post to tell the basic differences between different types of formatting to the noobs.
Low-level formatting happens at the factory where the disk is manufactured.Low level formatting divides the blank surface into Cylinders,Heads and Sectors.It also maps any physically defective sectors on the drive and does some fine tuning.
High-level formatting prepares a logical drive for use with particular Operating system by establishing a file system on the drive that the OS can support.There are many file systems such as FAT16,FAT32,NTFS.Ill cover     these file systems in detail in upcoming posts.
The formatting done by end user is often  reffered as High-level formatting.I think many of you have formatted your HDD and USB a zillion times.Do u remember, there is another option called quick format.If you check this option and start formatting it formats instantaneously.Have you wondered why this formatting happens at a rapid pace.This is due to the fact that it doesn't check for badsectors in Quick-format mode.
