How to Decode iPhone Serial Number

Posted by ison Thursday, March 29, 2012 1 comments
In case you are not aware, the serial number provides some interesting information about your iPhone, including the week it was manufactured and the factory id.
Folks at OS X Daily tell us that the serial number on the iPhone tells you the week it was manufactured, the factory where it was made and somethings which you already know such as the color and the size of the storage.

The first step is to locate the Serial Number. The easiest way to find it is to open your Settings app and navigate to General -> About -> Serial Number. You should also see the Serial Number in the Summary tab in iTunes when your iPhone is connected to the computer.

Serial numbers come in the form AABCCDDDEEF which can be read as follows:

AA
= Factory and machine ID
B = Year manufactured (simplified to final digit, 2010 is 0, 2011 is 1, etc)
CC = Week of production
DDD = Unique identifier
EEF = iPhone model, color of device and size of storage

VR0 (iPhone 2G Silver 4GB) WH8 (iPhone 2G Silver 8GB) 0KH (iPhone 2G Silver 16GB) Y7H (iPhone 3G Black 8GB) Y7K (iPhone 3G Black 16GB) 3NP (iPhone 3GS Black 16GB) 3NR (iPhone 3GS Black 32GB) 3NQ (iPhone 3Gs White 16GB) 3NS (iPhone 3Gs White 32GB) A4S (iPhone 4 Black 16GB) A4T (iPhone 4 Black 32GB)

E00 (iPhone 4 White 32GB) - Courtesy IyonUK

For example, the serial 79049XXXA4S is from factory 79 (presumably Foxconn), was manufactured in 2010 in the 49th week, and is a black 16GB iPhone 4.

Note: It's not clear what's the last three characters for all the white iPhone 4 models. So if you have one do let us know.



Unfortunately, Apple has changed the serial number generation with the CDMA iPhone 4, so this is not applicable for the CDMA iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S.

But no worries, OS X Daily reader Michael points out that this website decodes the serial number of not only previous generation iPhones but also iPhone 4S (except it is wrongly reporting that our iPhone 4S is the sixth generation iPhone).

Let us know if you were able to decode your iPhone's serial number

Dell XPS 13: One of the Best Ultrabooks Yet

Posted by ison Friday, March 16, 2012 1 comments
Dell has a lot of faith in the XPS 13, its first entry into the emerging Ultrabook class of superthin laptops. Compared to what we're used to seeing from Dell, it's a design marvel: thin, light, sleek, and well built with high-quality materials. It looks good, feels good, and performs well. If not for its disappointing display quality and a few minor trackpad issues, the XPS 13 would qualify as the best Ultrabook yet. Even with those drawbacks, it's one of the best Ultraportables around, but I can't recommend it unreservedly.

The version of the XPS 13 that I tested is the entry-level model. For $999, you get a Core i5-2467M with Intel integrated graphics, 4GB of RAM, and a 128GB solid-state drive. For $300 more, you can upgrade to a 256GB SSD; and another $200 will boost the CPU to a dual-core Core i7. Our baseline configuration proved to be pretty zippy on its own, delivering a strong WorldBench 7 score of 136 (see "How We Test PCs"). Chalk that performance up to the SSD, which helps the system boot up in about 17 seconds and performs basic file operations very speedily. In our battery tests, the system lasted just a hair under 6.5 hours. However, that number drops precipitously if you crank up the screen brightness, which can get quite bright.



The design and build quality are a cut above anything we've seen from Dell in a long time, and among the best we've seen in any thin-and-light laptop on the market. The base, composed of carbon fiber, has a pleasant soft-touch feel, and it hides the obnoxious service tag info under a flip-up metal plate for a cleaner look. The matte-black magnesium-alloy keyboard deck and the aluminum lid add rigidity where it's needed. The whole machine weighs 3 pounds--nearly the same as Apple's 13-inch Macbook Air. Dell's system, despite having a 13.3-inch screen, is actually shorter and narrower than Apple's, thanks to the extremely narrow bezel around the edge. Dell likes to say that it put a 13-inch screen into an 11-inch chassis, which is a bit of a stretch, but the laptop's compactness is impressive. The XPS 13 felt solid and dense in my hands, and it didn't flex at all.



If you're into games, you had best look elsewhere. Lacking a discrete graphics chip, the XPS 13 delivered unsatisfactory performance in modern 3D games. To achieve playable framer rates in games at the display's native resolution of 1366 by 768, you have to dial the details down to their lowest setting. Even then, with some strenuous games, you can't get a good experience. Thus far, ultrabooks simply aren't for gamers.

I was quite impressed by the keyboard. Most ultrathin laptops' keyboards don't support fast, accurate typing, but the one on the XPS 13 permitted me to click away at full speed. It's even backlit. The trackpad was another story. With the initial release driver, it seemed quite finicky. Set the sensitivity so that the cursor responds well, and it will jump around the screen as you type, due to poor palm detection. Lower the sensitivity to remove that problem, and the cursor stops responding to your touch. I got my hands on a new driver and calibration program (which Dell says will be on its site soon), which greatly improved the situation. The trackpad still isn't among the best I've used, but it's no longer a major weakness.



The display, on the other hand, remains a serious shortcoming. How Dell could make such a solid, attractive, well-performing laptop and then hamstring it with a crummy display is beyond me. The resolution is a bit on the low side--we're used to seeing 1440 by 900 or 1600 by 900 on premium 13-inch laptops. Though 1366 by 768 isn't uncommon, it's not the luxurious high-end spec that Dell ought to have aimed for on a laptop like this one. The average resolution is acceptable, but the visual quality is harder to tolerate. When I moved off-axis to the left or right, colors shifted dramatically. When I opened the lid to the wrong angle, the contrast and brightness went haywire. When I looked closely at certain gradients, I could see the spaces in the grid of pixels. Ultimately this is a mediocre LCD panel covered with pretty edge-to-edge glass. It's not a dealbreaker, just a disappointment.

The audio deserves special mention, if only because it may be the best sound I've heard from a 3-pound Ultrabook. It gets quite loud, and sounds fairly good, considering the design constraints on speaker size and placement. You'll never get big bass or room-filling music from a laptop this small, but the loudness and clarity of the XPS 13's speakers belies the tiny package they come in.

From a design perspective, the XPS 13 is a fantastic addition to Dell's lineup, establishing a new bar that Dell should aim to clear with its future products. The laptop is attractive, solid, and fast. Battery life is good if you don't go crazy with the screen brightness. Audio is better than you'd expect, and the keyboard and trackpad (after the driver update) don't disappoint. With better display quality, it would be a slam-dunk. Unfortunately, the middling resolution, iffy color reproduction, and poor off-axis viewing leave a considerable stain on what would otherwise be a five-star product. Let's hope that Dell releases a revised version this summer that carries Intel's Ivy Bridge chips and a better display.

The GPU Observer Gadget, released by Orbmu2k, is an all-in-one desktop gadget for both Nvidia and ATI graphics cards. Select your card from a list, unless it’s already been selected for you, as well as some display options and you’re ready to go.

GPU Observer Gadget

It can show temperatures, fan speeds, loads, memory usage and clock speed to help you keep an eye out for overheating or faulty graphic cards. You can even run several instances of the gadget if you have got more than one graphic card.

This is my personal favorite of all the windows 7 gadgets I’ve tested, so try it out yourself!

The back-end of this win7 gadget uses technology like nTune, NVAPI and ATIADL to determine GPU information.

Autorun Eater v.2.6

Posted by ison Monday, February 20, 2012 1 comments
Autorun Eater was born due to the increase of malwares using the ‘autorun.inf’ method to infect users unknowingly be it from flash drives, removable hard disks or any other removable storage device.
When a device is infected with a malware and an ‘autorun.inf’ file is dropped, the shell menu is normally modified to execute the malware whenever the unsuspecting user accesses the infected drive.
Autorun Eater will warn you and remove any suspicious ‘autorun.inf’ files(based on user decision/settings) so that the malware is not executed while accessing the infected drive. There are also certain cases whereby the malware has been removed by an antivirus but the ‘autorun.inf’ file remains. This will cause the drive to be inaccessible through the conventional method(double-click). Autorun Eater will also remove it if necessary so that you can access the drive as usual.
Features:
  • Prevent malware infection through removable storage devices(pendrives, portable hard disk, etc)
  • Install and forget, Autorun Eater monitors all drives(except A:, B:, and CD/DVD drives) in real time!
  • Manually scan drives A: and B: if you have access to either one or both(eg. Floppy)
  • Scan the infected storage device automatically with Microsoft Security Essentials
  • Pause at any time
  • Deleted suspicious ‘autorun.inf’ file(s) are auto-backup’ed
  • Events are logged for future reference
  • Fix 3 common critical registry changes made by malwares
You can install the new version over the old version (exit v2.5 first).
If you enjoy using Autorun Eater, please feel free to donate.
MD5 Checksum: 2ec2b86df38cdca49ce6071fcd64c70c
What´s New in version 2.6:
  • Added: ‘Malware Scan’ option to scan the infected storage device using Microsoft Security Essentials’ command line scanner (only works with version 2.1.1116.0 and above) after removing the suspicious ‘autorun.inf’ file.
  • Added: ‘MSE Scan Log’ option to view the Microsoft Security Essentials scan log.
  • Removed: ‘Priority’ option in the tray menu.
  • Removed: Removed some redundant code to improve startup time and performance.
  • Changed: Tweaks to program behaviour.

Lenovo IdeaPad U300s

Posted by ison 0 comments

Lenovo IdeaPad U300s Review, by Jon L. Jacobi November 15, 2011


If there's a laptop that deserves the moniker "Ultrabook"--a term that Intel introduced (and trademarked) earlier this year for a class of very slim and light laptops--it's the Lenovo IdeaPad U300s. Not because it's faster or beefier than the competition (it's not), but because it actually looks like a thin coffee-table book when closed. It's also the Ultrabook that many in our labs gravitated toward due to its luxuriously minimalist styling and superior input ergonomics. At least they did until they heard it cost $1595, a price tag that reflects the expense of the U300s's large (256GB) solid-state drive, or SSD.

Despite an Intel Core i7-2677M CPU, 4GB of DDR3 system memory, and that aforementioned 256GB SSD on board, the U300s performance lagged behind the Asus Zenbook UX31e. Still, a WorldBench score of 114 indicates plenty of power for everyday chores. Gaming frame rates delivered by the integrated Intel HD Graphics 3000 max out at 31 frames per second at 800 by 600 resolution--with the details turned way down low, which doesn’t cut the mustard for modern games.

On the other hand, battery life is 6 hours and 34 minutes, which compares nicely with the rest of theUltrabook crowd. At 2.9 pounds it’s one of the lighter Ultrabooks, though you won’t notice much difference between the heft of the U300s and the Zenbook or the Acer Aspire S3, all of which weigh close to 3 pounds.

Video playback at any resolution is smooth as can be, though you get the usual down-converting issues with 1080p playback on the 13.3-inch, 1366 by 768 display. The colors rendered by the display are rich, but the shiny surface is prone to glare--one of the few questionable design decisions on the U300s. Audio is stellar through headphones, but sounds slightly muffled through the speakers. Tweaking the included SRS sound enhancement software helps tremendously.

The U300S's keyboard is "breathable" (to use Lenovo’s term), which is a friendly replacement word for "ventilated." This trick is now used on a number of laptops (notably Apple's) so that no ventilation holes are required on the bottom of the unit where they can be blocked while sitting on your lap. It also means that the unit feels quite cool on your thighs. A ventilation port is on the left edge of the laptop, though.

The keyboard itself has a very nice feel for having such a short stroke (a common problem with ultrathin laptops). That's partially a textural impression--the entire unit has a luxurious feel due to the fine grain on the aluminum case’s paint job (available in Clementine Orange and Graphite Gray). The glass, buttonless touchpad is equally satisfying--in lieu of scroll areas, it uses two-finger swiping. So there’s no inadvertent straying into the scroll area--nice.

Depending on your needs, you might find the port selection on the U300s lacking. It has a USB 3.0 port for quick data transfers and backup, an HDMI one for video output, plus an additional USB 2.0 port, but that's about it. There's no VGA for older displays, no SD/MMC card slot, no eSATA, and--probably most surprising--no ethernet. The lack of eSATA isn't remediable, but is ameliorated by the presence of USB 3.0. For VGA, SD, and ethernet you'll need USB adapters. Connectivity consists of 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, as well as WiDi for wireless display.

The U300s is the first laptop I've handled that ships with Microsoft's free Security Essentials in lieu of a trial of pay security software. MSE is just as effective for most users, but stays out of your way unless there's an issue, unlike most pay options. There's no array of junk software either; just Cyberlink's YouCam utility for the 1280 by 720 webcam, a free subscription to Absolute Data Protect for encrypting data and remote disabling of the laptop, Google Chrome, and Cyberlink's OneKey recovery for backing up your system. The latter works in conjunction with a button on the left rear of the U300s that initiates recovery if the bundled Windows 7 Professional operating system stops booting correctly.

No matter which way you cut it, the U300s is a pricey laptop, though only moderately more so than the similarly configured competition. It's available in a slower, less capacious configuration with a Core i5-2457M CPU and a 128GB SSD for $1195, and Lenovo's U260 and its recently releasedU400 are only slightly thicker and heavier, with cheaper configurations. The missing ports are a bit of puzzler, but otherwise the U300s delivers a very satisfying Ultrabook experience.

Windows Gets a New Logo

Posted by ison Saturday, February 18, 2012 0 comments
A new logo for Windows 8 was doing the rounds last week, and many people considered it to be a fake. It transpires however that this new logo is in fact the real deal, as Microsoft have officially unveiled it today on their Windows blog.

The new logo, which is reminiscent of Microsoft’s new Metro interface, is apparently a window, not a flag (as per previous versions of the Windows logo). In their blog post the company said…

With Windows 8, we approached the logo redesign with a few key goals on mind.
1. We wanted the new logo to be both modern and classic by echoing the International Typographic Style (or Swiss design) that has been a great influence on our Metro style design philosophy. Using bold flat colors and clean lines and shapes, the new logo has the characteristics of way-finding design systems seen in airports and subways.
2. It was important that the new logo carries our Metro principle of being “Authentically Digital”. By that, we mean it does not try to emulate faux-industrial design characteristics such as materiality (glass, wood, plastic, etc.). It has motion – aligning with the fast and fluid style you’ll find throughout Windows 8.
3. Our final goal was for the new logo to be humble, yet confident. Welcoming you in with a slight tilt in perspective and when you change your color, the logo changes to reflect you. It is a “Personal” Computer after all.
1185 winlogo history3 13692F54 580x221 Windows Gets a New Logo
The blog provides a commentary on the evolution of the Windows logo. The new logo, similar to the logo for the company’s Windows Phone operating system, will be available in any colour and is much simpler than the logo that has come before and that we’ve been using in one for or another for decades.

This is the most significant change to the Windows logo in all that time, but it could be argued that Windows 8 is also the most significant change to the operating system in just as long. The Windows logo however is one of the most recognised logos on the planet, and it remains to be seen how easily people will recognise the new one. The full logo is below. So what do you think of the new logo? Why not tell us in the comments below.

IPRIVO VPN server is working as of Feb.13,2012

Posted by ison Thursday, February 16, 2012 1 comments
Another 100% free tunneling software na naman for all of us..pandagdag sa collection natin..this vpn had been presented to other forums but unfortunately di nila mapagana ito ng maayos dahil hanggang sa ngayon ang alam nila ay tcp lang ang gumagana dito.. hindi nila na visit ang site at di nila alam na nagupgrade na pala ito into upd actually kahapon ko lang ito napagana di po sa masyadong mabilis katulad ng ibang vpn na binahagi ko sa inyo pero free din po ito at unlimited din..(NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED)

Benefits of using IPRIVO vpn
Keeps your identity private, lets you surf anonymously – no one can get knowledge of your IP, and consecutively of your real identity, name, address and other private information. This happens because you are represented by IPRIVO’s IP online, and your own IP is kept private.

Keeps your internet usage private – no one, not even your ISP, knows which websites you visit and which online services you use. This happens because all communication passes through IPRIVO servers.

Keeps data on your computer safe – since your IP is private, hackers cannot get direct access to your computer. All data that is stored locally is kept safe, including your documents, programs, stored passwords etc.

Allows secure access to the Internet via public networks: WiFi in cafes, airports, hotels, libraries, offices. Since the connection between your computer and IPRIVO is encrypted, no one can intercept your emails, passwords, credit card numbers entered during shopping etc.

Allows unrestricted access to sites and services that are closed to users in your country.

Lets you bypass censorship. Access sites otherwise blocked by your ISP or government.

Protects you from identity theft online. No one can get access to your identity and use it online, shop using your credit card, or send emails in your name.

Provides “faster internet”, when used locally in UK. This is due to server-side caching and data compression.

Provides commercial-like service, totally FREE.

FOLLOW THE FOLLOWING STEPS:
1. Please go here to download the software http://iprivo.com/

Geek 101: What Is Jailbreaking?

Posted by ison Tuesday, February 14, 2012 0 comments
Have you ever looked at someone's iPhone home screen, and noticed that it has five icons in the dock? Or maybe you've seen a classic console emulator running on an iPad? Don't go looking for these apps on the App Store--these features and more are only possible with a hack called jailbreaking.
So how does jailbreaking work, and what does it actually do to your coveted iDevice? Can you jailbreak on other platforms or hardware besides Apple's? What are the risks involved, and is it even legal? Read on as we try to answer all of your jailbreaking questions. And if we don't, feel free to ask more questions the comments!

Here to help out is none other than notorious iOS hacker Jay Freeman (aka saurik), technology consultant and creator of the alternative App Store, Cydia.


What Is Jailbreaking?
Many smartphone, tablet, and game console makers include a layer of Digital Rights Management (DRM) software on their products. This DRM exists either to limit the software you can run on it, or is there for security reasons. Jailbreaking is the process of hacking these devices to bypass DRM restrictions, allowing you to run "unauthorized" software and to make other tweaks to your operating system.

More technically, jailbreaking can be thought of as the process of installing "a modified set of kernel patches (the kernel being the supervisor of the operating system) that allow you to run unsigned code," as saurik explains. It also gives you root-level access, which is otherwise unavailable. The term "root" comes from UNIX, where it is the superuser account that has unrestricted rights and permissions to all files. This provides you with added flexibility, but it also has some inherent dangers (more on that later).

You can alter or install anything onto your phone or tablet such as UI hacks (like the 5-icon dock) or unofficial apps (like classic console emulators) that would not otherwise be accepted into the App Store. Saurik's alternative app store, called Cydia, is arguably the definitive repository of such apps or tweaks. Cydia is so ubiquitous in iOS jailbreaking circles that most jailbreak tools install it automatically.

iPhone hackers first coined the term "jailbreaking" in reference to breaking the iPhone out of Apple’s iTunes “jail.” The term has since been (somewhat erroneously) used in a more general sense to refer to similar hacks made to other platforms like Android, where it's also known as “rooting”. In any case, the basic concept is the same, regardless of what you call it.

Why Jailbreak?
              A heavily customized jailbroken iPhone.                                                                  
For better or for worse, iOS is a closed environment: Apps need to adhere to Apple's stringent guidelines to make it onto the App Store. To a certain extent, this restriction exists for your own protection and to maintain the overall quality of apps. There are some apps, however, that don't make the cut but arguably ought to--the WikiLeaks app for iOS comes to mind.

"When you go to the App Store and install an app, you click [the icon], it opens, you do stuff with it, you hit the home button to close it, it goes away," saurik says. "An app is a self-controlled universe hidden behind a single icon." Anything outside this simple design--like saurik's UI theming mod called Winterboard, or any other alterations to built-in apps--is strictly forbidden.

To Apple, an app is like a sandbox. Your app can only play within the sandbox, but if you want to roam outside of it, jailbreaking is your only option.

Why Not Jailbreak?
Jailbreaking has some inherent risks. Root access is necessary for modding, but it can also open the floodgates for malicious attacks. Although there haven't been many documented cases of this, one hacker did create a harmless Rick-roll worm known as iKee to emphasize the vulnerability of jailbroken devices that haven't been properly secured by users.

Additionally, because jailbreak apps don't have to adhere to Apple's guidelines, some users complain about general instability, increased data usage, or decreased battery life.

At this point, some users argue the value in jailbreaking has diminished as iOS matures and incorporates features that were once only available to modders, such as multitasking, home screen backgrounds, and improved notifications. One might argue, however, that without jailbreaking, Apple may not have adopted some of these features in the first place.

In the ongoing cat-and-mouse game between Apple and iOS hackers, some might say that Apple has been gaining the upper–hand as jailbreak tools have begun to slow in release. New jailbreak methods used to be released within days of an iOS version release (if not before), but as Apple vigilantly seals security holes with every new firmware and hardware update, hackers may be struggling more to keep up. For example, a jailbreak for the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 only recently came out--months after Apple released them. Still, when it comes to hackers, if there's a will, there's almost certainly a way.

How to Jailbreak?
Absinthe A5 lets you jailbreak the iPhone 4S and iPad 2.
Generally, jailbreaking tools come in the form of OS X or Windows desktop applications. Currently, the only tool to jailbreak the A5 processor-based iPhone 4S and iPad 2 with iOS 5.0.1 is called Absinthe. Other tools, such as PwnageTool and redsn0w, are only able to jailbreak older devices running iOS 5.0.1. The renowned iPhone Dev-Teamreleased the very first jailbreak tool, and the group is still central to the iOS hacker community; its blog is a good place to go to see what's new in jailbreaking tools.


Is Jailbreaking Legal?
It depends a little bit on who you ask, but as far as the US government is concerned, it is legal to jailbreak your smartphone. In 2010, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) recognized the arguments of the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF, the international non-profit digital rights advocacy organization) to add phone jailbreaking to a list of exemptions to anti-circumvention provisions. This DMCA exemption is up for review again this year, and the EFF and other groups like the Software Freedom Law Center hope to get the exemption expanded to cover hacking other personal computing devices--like tablets and game consoles--as well.

Some folks, particularly hackers and modders, insist that jailbreaking is a right and do it as something of a statement. They'll often compare it it souping up a car: Imagine buying a car with the hood welding shut so you can't modify it. Some say that's just not right.

Apple and some other companies, on the other hand, continue to plead with regulators to outlaw the practice. The best they can do at this point is tell users that jailbreaking defies their terms of use and voids the warranty. In other words, while you don't risk being arrested just for jailbreaking, don't expect any help from the Apple Store genius when your hacked iPhone has a problem.

Important Notes (Pakibasa muna):
1. For Gl0be: Gagana lang ito kapag "butas" na ang sim nyo. Click here for silentkunai's tips.


2. For Sm@rt: Hindi ko pa ito nasusubukan sa Sm@rt (dahil wala akong Sm@rt sim/modem). Pero theoretically speaking, dapat gagana ito sa Sm@rt, basta working yung config. Paki-try na lang, at magfeedback na rin.

3. Kung meron kayong firewall, siguraduhin nyo lang na i-always allow nyo si "hexvpn.exe" at "openvpn.exe" (o kaya ay ilagay nyo sa exception list). Kapag firewalled si "hexvpn.exe" at "openvpn.exe" ay hindi nyo makikita ng tama yung statistics, or worse, di kayo makaka-connect. Gumagamit kasi ng Management Interface si "hexvpn.exe" para "makipag-usap" kay "openvpn.exe". Sa ganyang paraan ay makukuha ni "hexvpn.exe" yung real time statistics na galing kay "openvpn.exe". Kung mapapansin nyo, merong "management localhost 7234" na nakalagay config, iyan ang configuration para makapag-usap si "hexvpn.exe" at "openvpn.exe" via telnet. Port 7234 ang ginagamit nilang port for the connection. Wag na wag nyong tatanggalin yang sa config, dahil pag tinanggal nyo... ibabalik ulit ni "hexvpn.exe" yan sa config, sayang lang ang pagod nyo. Hehe. At saka, kada given interval ay nag-aattempt na mag-ping/mag-connect si "hexvpn.exe" sa random IPs para masukat yung round trip time (o latency) ng kada ping. Sinadya kong sa random IP sya magpi-ping para hindi naman magkaroon ng heavy traffic yung IP na iyon sa sobrang dami nating users. 



4. Meron akong isinamang 200+ configs, hindi lahat ng config ay nasubukan ko, kayo na ang bahalang mamili ng working config para sa inyo. Pwede nyo rin gamitin yung mga existing configs ninyo, kung meron kayong mga itinatagong server ay pwede nyo ring subukan, ilagay nyo lang sa "config" folder yung *.ovpn config file at made-detect na ni "hexvpn.exe" yan. Make sure lang na tanggalin nyo sa config yung mga scripting command na tulad ng "up finger-ON.exe", "up finger-OFFexe", etc, dahil magkakaroon kayo ng "script error".


5. Meron akong ginawang short video tutorial para sa mga may gustong manood.


6. Sa mga gustong gumawa o mag-edit ng config ng maramihan, panoorin nyo yung "How to Use Config Maker" na video.


7. Kung Windows 7/Windows Vista ang OS nyo, make sure na "run it as administrator" kung naka-enable yung UAC nyo.


8. Lahat ng settings nyo ay mase-save sa "hexvpn.ini" file upon exit, para sa susunod nyo syang i-open ay maaalala nya yung previous settings nyo. Kung sakali mang napagpasyahan nyong ilipat ng location yung "Hex VPN" folder, make sure na i-delete nyo yung "hexvpn.ini" file. Ang mababasa kasi ni hexvpn.exe ay yung dating location, hindi yung bago, dahil ayun ang naka-save sa "hexvpn.ini", at ang resulta... "File: libeay32.dll is missing or corrupt", "Config directory not found.", at iba pang error messages. Hinahanap nya kasi yung file sa dating location, at hindi nya makita, dahil nilipat nyo na nga. Hehe. Pwede ring i-reset nyo yung settings sa default sa Options instead of deleting "hexvpn.ini".

The Windows 8 Tablet

Posted by ison 0 comments

The Windows 8 brand may be the ticket to success for the next Microsoft tablet. Going after the iPad is not easy, especially since others are doing it, like Android, and Amazon.

But disappointments run on the Android version because there is nothing to differentiate them for iPad. It’s a “me-too” approach. That’s what is supposed to be different with the Windows 8 tablet, it’s not “me-too.”

What will the Windows 8 tablet look like?

That hasn’t been released but here are some things that people don’t like about some of the current tablets. It’s been reported that “The default Android browser on the tablet fails at doing some really basic things like rendering Web pages quickly and opening mobile Web pages on some sites. Other browsers like Opera Mobile are fast but have other shortcomings.” Speed is one thing that has to improve.
Samsung Windows 8 Tablet 400x266 The Window 8 TabletCustomer support
Although this would seem to be a basic ingredient in any software/hardware company, apparently there has been a lack of a reliable customer support environment over at Android. Google also has a fragmented approach to upgrading Android, which causes some panic among users when they hear that an upgrade can be coming soon.

That’s where Microsoft has an advantage. They are about customer support. And upgrades, well they come around on Tuesday every week. Some are security, some OS, some Apps.

Office Applications

Another thing that can make a difference is that a Windows 8 tablet can have Office installed. That can make a big difference for users who want both the tablet and Office experience on hand. Favorite apps from Microsoft could be installed, making the transition from PC to Laptop to Tablet. This could be a real transitory step. For Microsoft and the consumer community, a Windows 8 Tablet could be the hardware device that Microsoft needs to get back in that market.

How To Fix DLL Errors

Tips To Repair PC Errors Related To Missing DLL Files

A Windows computer consists of several DLL files that allow your software and operating system to perform its functions efficiently. As DLL files are present in huge numbers, it is likely that every now and then a DLL error may crop up on your screen. However, there is no need to press the panic button when you see a DLL error message. With a little knowledge and effort you can easily resolve DLL errors on your own.
A DLL error may occur due to a variety of reasons ranging from a missing or corrupt DLL, malware infection, registry issues, outdated device drivers, overwriting of a current version of a DLL with an older version and so on. The majority of DLL errors occur because of missing DLL files and this will be the focal point of our discussion. In this article, we will discuss the following topics:
  • Reasons why a DLL file may go missing.
  • Examples of common missing DLL file error messages.
  • How to repair missing DLL errors.

Reasons Behind Missing DLLs

To begin with, let’s look at some of the most common reasons that may cause a DLL file to go missing:
  • Removal of the DLL files by mistake.
  • Removal of a shared DLL file during uninstallation of a program.
  • Malware infection.

Examples of Missing DLL Error Messages

Now, let’s get familiar with some of the common error messages that may appear on your screen when a DLL file goes missing:
msvbvm60.dll” not found
The file “msvcr80.dll” is missing

Steps to Resolve Missing DLL Errors:

To fix DLL errors that occur due to a missing DLL file, you need to get a new copy of that DLL file and save it to its default location.

However, you must first ensure that a malware infection is not the cause behind the missing DLL error. Malware programs often modify, misplace, or delete important files and cause recurring DLL errors, such as msvbm60.dll and msvcr80.dll errors. To identify and remove malware, run a malware scan using advanced antivirus, and antispyware tools. In case your PC is reported to be clean and free from infection, move to the next step of procuring the missing DLL file.

Depending upon the reason for the missing DLL file, you may use any of the following methods to procure the missing DLL file and resolve DLL errors:
  • Use a reliable file recovery tool – If you accidentally deleted the DLL file and also removed it from your Recycle Bin, you may use an efficient file recovery tool to recover the lost DLL file.
  • Download the missing DLL file from the Internet – This is the most convenient way of replacing the DLL file. However, words of caution before you download the missing DLL file from a web site, always check the authenticity of the site.
  • Reinstall the application – Uninstall and then reinstall the application with which you are getting the missing DLL error. When you install an application again, all the files that the application requires are also installed.
  • Extract the missing DLL file from the Windows installation CD – If the DLL file in question is a Windows file, you may extract a copy of the missing DLL file from your Windows installation disc.

New Windows 8 Wallpapers and Charms Bar Shown in Leaked Screenshots

Posted by ison Wednesday, February 8, 2012 0 comments

Chinese website PC Beta has released new screenshots from the Windows 8 Consumer Preview (beta) showing that the Start Screen wallpaper we’ve seen in the Developer Preview probably won’t be the only one available when we see the full beta later this month. While full details of exactly what and how many wallpapers will be available, until Stardock get their way, the image of the new rings wallpaper isn’t an unpleasant one.

The screenshots also show a modified Charms bar with new icons and a slightly modified Control Panel, now called PC Settings, where the descriptive text from items has been removed. Finally these is a screenshot reinforcing the news that the Windows Start Orb has now been removed from the desktop. Rumour has it however that it reappears if you mouse over to the bottom left of the Windows desktop taskbar.

Much still isn’t known about the Windows 8 beta, probably too much frankly and there are a great many quite legitimate questions that people are asking. It is clear though that Microsoft have done a great deal of work since last August when they would have signed-off on the Developer Preview build, and that they’ve taken on board much of the feedback they received from that build.

One piece of feedback concerned the blanket alphabetical way in which apps were treated in the search screen. One of the new screenshots shows apps now arranged into categories, as per the current Start Menu. It’s probably not a perfect implementation, but it is at least a significant improvement over what we’ve seen before.

What do you think of these screenshots and the new look? Do you like it? Why not tell us in the comments below.
