NetCut This is a commonly used tool used on networks to cut down the network connection of victim. It makes  a Denial of Service attack on the Victim so that he doesn’t get internet access. It does so by flooding the switch with unreal MAC address entries that point to the victim’s ip address, so the packets are mapped incorrectly and the victim receives no packets.  Lets understand how it works: Suppose there is a Desktop PC with:       Hostname :  C4         IP : 10.0.0.81        Gateway : 10.0.0.138 We use here 3 tools: 1.Netcut : To make Attack. 2.

Gmail cannot recognize dots or periods in email addresses or the user names - that means an address like " abc.xyz@gmail.com " is the same as " abcxyz@gmail.com " or " a.b.cxy.z@gmail.com ". If a Gmail account like "abc.xyz@gmail.com" already exists, registration of "abcxyz@gmail.com" or any address with string "abcxyz"(charters may be separated with random pattern or sequence of dots) would fail. This is actually a bug than a feature but you can again exploit it to have different kind of email address in your forum signatures. Keep in mind that hyphens (-) and underscores (_) can't be used in a Gmail address. Also, gmail user names are case insensitive, so it doesn't matter if you enter upper case or lower case letters.

Many applications you install in your PC refuses to work without a restart. It’s annoying to restart your computer again just to use the software. The actual reason for which these software demands restart is that it requires Windows Registry to be re-read. Well, there’s a workaround. To force a registry re-read you just have to terminate and restart the Windows Explorer process(explorer.exe). You can do it by using Taskmanager and killing explorer.exe process. The other way is to create a batch file which will kill and restart your explorer.exe process. Type the following commands into an empty text file and save it as ‘reg_read.bat’.(Notice the .bat at the end) @echo off taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe explorer.exe This batch file terminates the explorer.exe process and then restarts it. Now, whenever you need to make windows reread the registry to avoid a restart after you install a new program, double click on ‘reg_read.bat’ and start using the software right away.

Overburning is used to burn more than the normal amount of data onto a disk. The extra space used is the lead out portion of the disk, where about a minute and a half of extra music can be burnt (about 5 to 10 MB in a CD). Using overburning for any other purpose apart from music is too risky as there is a high scope for losing data. However, if it is a small file, then it can be accommodated. Nero lets you find out exactly how much data can fit in.  Test the overburning capacity of your media by starting up Nero DiscSpeed. Go to Extra > Overburning Test. This will take some time as Nero DiscSpeed simulates a complete write of the drive. It lists the capacity, the maximum amount of data that can be accommodated, and the extra space available for overburning.  In Nero Burning ROM, go to File > Options > Expert Features and check Enable Disk-at-once CD overburning or Enable DVD overburning and click on apply.

It happens to everyone eventually. Your hard drive is suddenly full and you are left wondering where did all my free space go? Now you must begin the task of deleting old files and folders to reclaim space but where do you start? In the past I would suggest manually checking the sizes of all of your folders so you know where to begin the hunt but now there is a great utility called WinDirStat that does the work for you.

Windows7 Starter edition dodn’t have an option for setting up an Ad-Hoc network in the Network and Sharing Center. On Microsoft product page it is stated that ad-hoc connection is not available in Windows 7 Starter edition. But as it all turns out, you can in fact use the ad-hoc network in Starter edition. Microsoft has promoted Windows 7 Starter edition in a bizarre way. Sure, it is a stripped down version of Windows 7 most suitable for netbooks but saying that it can’t create or be part of ad-hoc network is stupid and misleading. Most guides, including the one we wrote here, ask users to head over to the Network and Sharing Center and then set up ad-hoc network. But the ad-hoc shortuct is missing from Windows 7 Starter edition(see screenshot below). If you are using Windows 7 Starter, you are licensed to use the ad-hoc network but NOT licensed to use the ad-hoc network shortcut inside Network and Sharing Center. Read the sentence again, we are talking about ‘ad-hoc network’ and the...
