Lock any folder without using any software

1. Suppose you have a folder named abcd in D:\abcd.
2. In the same drive next to the folder create a new notepad file with the exact statement
ren abcd abcd.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}
3. Now save this text file as loc.bat
4. Create another notepad file and type
ren abcd.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} abcd
5. Save this as key.bat
6. Now there are two batch files. Double click loc.bat and your folder will change into Control Panel and its contents cannot be viewed .
7. To open the folder double click key.bat and you get back your original folder.
8. For more safety keep the key.bat in another location . Only for unlocking copy paste to the original location and double click
(don’t forget to replace abcd with the folder name)

Paste it in notepad

Quote:

cls
@ECHO OFF
title Folder Locker
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

Save it as batch file(with extension .bat).Any name will do.
Now you see a batch file.
Double click it to create a folder locker.
A new folder named Locker would be formed at the same location.
Now brings all the files you want to hide in the locker folder.
Now double click 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.

How to install programs and games in a limited account meaning an account thats not an administrator

This might not always work but it’s pretty useful because your able to install programs although your administrator has bloked it.
Steps
1. When your installing the program here is what you have to do.
2. When it gives you the option of choosing the directory or destination where the program will be intall, before clicking next click browse to choose a different destination.
3. The destination your going to choose is
C:\Documents and Settings\”your username”\”name of program being installed”\
4. So just browse to
The C:\ drive
Then Documents and Settings
Then your User Name
5. The reason why you do this is because since your intalling it in your account name the computer doesn’t stop or check anything because its your account and your name, but if you just select the desktop and choose to install it there it going to say something like “you do not have enough administrative privileges” something like that.

Hide your files in jpeg format

Well, did you know you could hide your files in a JPEG file? For this, you will only need to download WinRAR. You just need to have a little knowledge about Command Prompt and have WinRAR installed.
1. Gather all the files that you wish to hide in a folder anywhere in your PC (make it in C:\hidden – RECOMMENDED).
2. Now, add those files in a RAR archive (e.g. secret.rar). This file should also be in the same directory (C:\hidden).
3. Now, look for a simple JPEG picture file (e.g. logo.jpg). Copy/Paste that file also in C:\hidden.
4. Now, open Command Prompt (Go to Run and type ‘cmd‘). Make your working directory C:\hidden.
5. Now type: “COPY /b logo.jpg + secret.rar output.jpg” (without quotes) – Now, logo.jpg is the picture you want to show, secret.rar is the file to be hidden, and output.jpg is the file which contains both.
6. Now, after you have done this, you will see a file output.jpg in C:\hidden. Open it (double-click) and it will show the picture you wanted to show. Now try opening the same file with WinRAR, it will show the hidden archive .

Make your start menu run faster
1. Go to to ‘run’ Type regedit.
2. Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > CONTROL PANEL > DESKTOP
3. There is an key called ‘MenuShowDelay’
4. Double click on it and change 400 to 0
5. Click ‘ok’ and restart your computer to see changes to take effect

Set Wallpapers in Drives
All you have to do is just create a “Notepad” file and copy paste this in your Drive
[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}] iconarea_image=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Pictures\Sample Pictures\sunset.jpg iconarea_text=0×00FFFFFF
Save it as desktop.ini

Automatically close non-responsive programs

With a small registry tweak, Windows XP can be set to automatically close any program that ’stops responding’ (crashes), eliminating the need for you to use the task manager to close down the offending software manually.
To do this:
Open REGEDIT and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\ Desktop
Modify the REG_SZ entry AutoEndTasks with a value of 1

Remove shut down option

Wanna play with your friends by removing the shutdown option from start menu in their computer.
Click on start>run(win key+r)
Then tpye “regedit” there, this opens up the registry editor, now goto
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SOFTWARE>Microsoft>Windows>CurrentVersion>Explorer
Then set “NoClose”=”DWORD:1

Downloading RapidShare Files With Resume Capability

vishalshah — Thu, 31 Aug 2006 14:38:29 +0000

With this technique you could download RapidShare files with resume capability and Support for Download Accelerators, I personally found this technique quiet useful thought it would be useful for you too (especially people on Dailup).

Well these are the things you would need for this tutorial:
A hosting with php support (well try this free php host www.profreehosting.info)
Rapid leech script http://rapidleech.com
Rapidshare Link Grabber

Then follow these steps:
Logon to your hosting
Upload all the files of RapidLeech Script in the desired directory
Chmod the folder to 777 and also chmod index.php to 777
Get the link using Rapidshare Link Grabber
Go to www.yoursitenamehere.com/RapidLeechFolder
Paste the link in the textbox and press download

Well if you don’t see any thing at all it might be because it take a little time to copy the file depending on your hosting (50mb takes around 2.5 to 4 min)

Make Firefox Faster : money back gurratny

vishalshah — Sun, 27 Aug 2006 03:44:46 +0000

Here’s something for broadband people that will really speed Firefox up:

1.Type about:config into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set "network.http.pipelining to true
Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining to true
Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once. (Don’t put higher than 30, coz some sites will think u r hammering and will ban u…)

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New Integer. Name it nglayout.initialpaint.delay and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.

If you’re using a broadband connection you’ll load pages MUCH faster now!

Payable download hack

vishalshah — Mon, 14 Aug 2006 07:20:11 +0000

i found this from one forum .. i just copy paste.

Just a little basic html tip for those who are trying to download an application from sites which has an paypal order page & link to start you off.

Use a proxy when you try this to hide your ip as some sites will record your ip when you connect for security.

1) Rightclick your mouse (ctrl+click) viewsource and open the source of the site in an a texteditor
2) Search for the word “return”
3) Next to it you can find the url for the thank you page
4) Copy the url and paste it in your browser and you will see the download link

This works only if you can download instantly after payment, it will not work if the link needs to be emailed to you.
