1.Let your PC boot up completely before opening any applications.
2.Refresh the desktop after closing any application. This will remove any unused files from the RAM.
3.Do not set very large file size images as your wallpaper. Do not keep a wallpaper at all if your PC is low on RAM (less than 64 MB).
4.Do not clutter your Desktop with a lot of shortcuts. Each shortcut on the desktop uses up to 500 bytes of RAM
5.Empty the recycle bin regularly. The files are not really deleted from your hard drive until you empty the recycle bin.
6.Delete the temporary internet files regularly.
7.Defragment your hard drive once every two months. This will free up a lot of space on your hard drive and rearrange the files so that your applications run faster.
8.Always make two partitions in your hard drive. Install all large Softwares (like PSP, Photoshop, 3DS Max etc) in the second partition. Windows uses all the available empty space in C drive as virtual memory when your Computer RAM is full. Keep the C Drive as empty as possible.
9.When installing new Softwares disable the option of having a tray icon. The tray icons use up available RAM, and also slow down the booting of your PC. Also disable the option of starting the application automatically when the PC boots. You can disable these options later on also from the Tools or preferences menu in your application.
10. Protect your PC from dust. Dust causes the CPU cooling fan to jam and slow down thereby gradually heating your CPU and affecting the processing speed. Use compressed air to blow out any dust from the CPU. Never use vacuum.
RAM IS THE WORKING AREA (DESKTOP) OF THE CPU, KEEP IT AS EMPTY AND UNCLUTTERED AS POSSIBLE!

On 9th July 2008, Yahoo! Search is taking another step in extending the Yahoo! Open Strategy with the launch of Yahoo! Search BOSS, a web services platform that allows developers and companies to create and launch web-scale search products by utilizing the same infrastructure and technology that powers Yahoo! Search.
Our goal with BOSS (Build your Own Search Service) is simple -- foster innovation in the search landscape. As anyone who follows the search industry knows, the barriers to successfully building a high quality, web-scale search engine are incredibly high. Doing so requires hundreds of millions of dollars of investment in engineering, sciences and core infrastructure -- from crawling and indexing technology to relevancy and machine learning algorithms, to stuff as mundane as data centers, servers and power. Because competing successfully in web search requires an investment of this scale, new players have effectively been prohibited from delivering credible alternatives to Yahoo! and Google. We believe the BOSS platform will begin to change that.
So what is BOSS?
BOSS is a new, open platform that offers programmatic access to the entire Yahoo! Search index via an API. BOSS allows developers to take advantage of Yahoo!'s production search infrastructure and technology, combine that with their own unique assets, and create their own search experiences. While search APIs have been available for some time, BOSS removes many of the usage restrictions that have prevented other companies from using them to build innovative new search engines.
Here's a quick summary of what's available today:
- Ability to re-rank and blend results -- BOSS partners can re-rank search results as they see fit and blend Yahoo!'s results with proprietary and other web content in a single search experience
- Total flexibility on presentation -- Freedom to present search results using any user interface paradigm, without Yahoo! branding or attribution requirements
- BOSS Mashup Framework -- We're releasing a Python library and UI templates that allow developers to easily mashup BOSS search results with other public data sources
- Web, news and image search -- At launch, developers will have access to web, news and image search and we'll be adding more verticals soon
- Unlimited queries -- There are no rate limits on the number of queries per day
In addition to a self-serve API, we're also partnering with a handful of Internet companies with large user bases or unique assets to collaboratively develop next gen search products using Yahoo!'s full suite of search technology. To learn more about BOSS Custom, click here.
What's in it for Yahoo! and partners?
Why would Yahoo! open up its search infrastructure and technology to developers, entrepreneurs and companies who could use it to compete with us? It's really quite simple. First, we believe that being open is core to Yahoo!'s future success -- opening our network, opening our own search experience via SearchMonkey, and now opening our search infrastructure via BOSS -- will lead to innovation both on Yahoo! and powered by Yahoo!. For BOSS, we see a virtuous circle in which partners deliver innovative search experiences, and as they grow their audiences and usage we have more data that can be used to improve our own Yahoo! Search experience and as a result, improve the quality of results our BOSS partners and their users get. Second, we do see new revenue streams from BOSS. In the coming months, we'll be launching a monetization platform for BOSS that will enable Yahoo! to expand its ad network and enable BOSS partners to jointly participate in the compelling economics of search.
What's in it for users?
More choice. BOSS will enable a range of fundamentally different search experiences. These new search products will provide value to users along multiple dimensions, such as vertical specialization, new relevance indicators and ranking models, and innovative UI implementations. Our hope is that the resulting expansion in user choice will have the effect of fragmenting the increasingly consolidated search market in much the same way that cable TV dramatically increased programming choices for television viewers.
Kick the tires and get started
Want to kick the tires on what BOSS-powered search could look like? As part of an alpha program, we've been working with a handful of start-ups and developers who have already begun using BOSS. Here are a few early examples of what's possible with BOSS:
- Me.dium, a start-up that's built an innovative collaborative browsing product used BOSS to build a web-scale search engine that leverages its real-time surfing data. By combining the depth of the Yahoo! Search index with its insight into where users are browsing, Me.dium can provide its users with a unique buzz-based search experience.
- Hakia, a semantic search start-up, is using BOSS to access the Yahoo! Search index and dramatically increase the speed with which it can semantically analyze the web. With BOSS providing this important infrastructure, Hakia is able to deliver a language search experience that isn't available from any of the "big three" search providers or other semantic search engines.
- Daylife To-Go is a new self-service, hosted publishing platform from Daylife. Anyone can use this platform to generate customizable pages and widgets. Daylife To-Go uses the BOSS API platform to power its web search module.
- Cluuz, a next-generation search engine prototype, generates easier-to-understand search results through semantic cluster graphs, image extraction and tag clouds. The Cluuz analysis is performed in real-time on results returned from the BOSS API.
To learn more about BOSS and get started using the API, visit the Yahoo! Developer Network. BOSS is open to all -- so check out the documentation, get a BOSS app ID and start building the next generation of search.

The headline in the Wall St. Journal.
Google Inc.'s second-quarter net income rose 35%, but the results disappointed investors and shares fell nearly 10% in after-hours trading.
Update: If you want snark, but worthy analysis, read SAI:
GEORGE REYES takes over. Grab the coffee.
AdSense DOWN sequentially. First time ever. Attributed to quality control, seasonality.
Paid clicks DOWN sequentially. Again, first time ever. Attributed to quality control, seasonality.
UK DOWN sequentially. No FOREX benefit, seasonal weakness. Again, first time ever.
Operating margin down sequentially.
Interest income down (some of the EPS miss here). Lower cash balance from DoubleClick deal, and lower yields.
Free cash flow again hammered by massive CAPEX: Up modestly sequentially, but has essentially been flat for 4 quarters.
HAL VARIAN:
Queries in many sectors weak: autos, real-estate, finance, etc. Real estate down year over year. Y/Y auto ad spend up, but not on financing side (consumers hit). Consumers cautious. This is the first time Google has acknowledged weakness. Revenue performance remarkable in light of this.
SERGEY:
Boring product details.
GPRS billing hack
> Presumably one would have to hack into the internal network to get > access to the (private?) i.p addresses that are being assigned to > customers. (Or are they not private - can I ping them from the net?)
It depends. Some operators (including mine) use Network Address Translation (NAT) to provide ip addresses from private network to the clients. This would also efectively stop the "gprs billing hack".
Some operators provide the IP addresses from public ip space which is is efectively the same as connecting any normal computer to the internet. In this case (if there is not any firewall between) you can send packets to the handset. Still, this does not mean that you could somehow steal money from the packet charges.
The overbilling scam they described is basically just pinging a host (handset) in Internet. In the old days when ISP:s charged by the traffic you could do the same "attack" to some poor company by floodpinging their webserver. Was that called "hacking into ISP bi
lling system"? I dont think so :)
There were some valid point brought forward in the article. First, don't think this about wholesale theft form wireless carriers; rather,this is about the erosion of consumer confidence in per-packet billing.
DoCoMo already has a monthly 500yen kickback to consumers that acknowledges the fact that they don't own and can't control the Internet. The reality is that there is enough strange and wonderful stuff going on in the Internet that per-packet billing is tenuous at best.
...and for all those telcos and governments out there who's revenue models depending on per-(whatever besides monthly) billing, that hashuge implications. These folks consider a departure from per-packetbilling to be theft outright.
Many persons asked me for how to hack mtnl account.Here is a general procedure to hack any DSL/cable account.I have already hacked MTNL triband and spectranet cablenet using this.
The actual procedure specifically for mtnl is damn simpler but this is the general method.Not for no
obs.
As they say,no pain no gain.
I am not responsible for any harm caused to you using this method.Though the method is damn simple,the detection is simpler.
This tutorial will explain to you how to hack someone's internet account thru his router.
This hack is based on a secuirty exploit of the router's default password and the stupidity of the user.
Explanation: when somebody buy's a xDSL/Cabel router, the router is set to manufactory defaults like IP range, user accounts, router table, and most important the security level.
The last one we will exploit.
Most routers will have a user friendly setup menu running on port 23 (telnet) and sometimes port 80 (http) or both.
This is what we are looking for.
Step 1.
Get a multie IP range scanner like superscanner (superscanner is fast and easy to use).
Get a xDSL/Cabel user IP range. This is a single user IP 212.129.169.196 so the ip range of this Internet provider is 212.129.xxx.xxx most likely it will be from 212.129.1.1 to 212.129.255.255 .
To keep your scanning range not to big it's smart to scan from 212.129.1.1 to 212.129.1.255 it also depends of your bandwidth how fast the scan will be finished.
The IP adres above is just a example any IP range from a xDSL/Cabel provider can be used for this hack.
before you start scanning specify the TCP/IP ports. You know that we are looking for TCP port 23 (telnet) and TCP port 80 (http) so edit the list and select only port 23 and port 80.
Now start scanning and wait for the results.
When finished scanning look for a IP that has a open port 23 and 80. Write them down or remember them.
Step 2.
Way 1
This is important: Most routers have connection log capability so the last thing you want to do is making a connection with your own broadband connection so use a anonymouse proxy server or dailup connection with a fake name and address (56.9 modem for example) when connection to the victim's router.
Now get a telnet program. Windows has a standard telnet program just go to start,
select run and type down "telnet" without the ", click or enter OK.
Select "connect" than "Remote system" enter IP adres of the victim in the "host name" field press OK.
wait for your computer to make a connection. This way only works when the router has a open telnet port service running.
Way 2
This is important: Most routers have connection log capability so the last thing you want to do is making a connection with your own broadband connection so use a anonymouse proxy server or dailup connection with a fake name and adres (56.9 modem for example) when connection to the victim's router.
Open a Internet explorer windows enter the IP address of the victim after the http:// in the address bar.
This way only works when the router has a open hyper text transfer protocol (http) service running.
Step 3
Entering the userfriendly setup menu. 9 out of 10 times the menu is protected by a loginname and password. When the user doesn't change any security value's the default password stay's usable.
So the only thing you have to do is find out what type of router the victim uses. I use this tool: GFILanguard Network Security Scanner is good. When you find out the type of router that's been used get the wright loginname and password from this list (not every router is on the list)
Step 4
When you have a connection in telnet or internet expolorer you need to look for user accounts.
PPP, PPtP, PPeP, PPoP, or such connection protocol. If this is not correct look for anything that maybe contains any info about the ISP account of the user.
go to this option and open it. Most likely you will see a overview of user setup options.
Now look for the username and password.
In most case the username will be freely displayed so just write it down or what ever....
The password is a different story. Allmost always the password is protected by ********* (stars) in the telnet way there is noway around it (goto another victim) but when you have a port 80 connection (http). Internet connection way open click right mouse key and select "View source" now look for the field where the star are at. most likely you can read it because in the source code the star are converted to normal ASCII text.
If not get a "******** to text" convertor like snadboy's revelation V.2 move the cursor over the ****** and....
It's a miracle you can read the password.
Now you have the username and password.
There a million fun thing to do with that but more about that next time.
Tips.
Beware on most routers only one person can be loget on simultaneous in the router setupmenu.
Don't change anything in the router if you don't know what you are doing.
Dont cause any unintentional harm.Dont overuse any connection as the sufferer may complain.
Before performing these steps you need to test your broadband speed
you can test your speed at http://www.2wire.com/
The broadband connection speed can be increased by clearing the route from modem to server. Number of packets sent by modem to server should be increased.Internet speed can be increased by increasing more number of incoming and outgoing packets.The main reason why your Internet connection is slow is because of harmful virus.If your system is infected with virus your number of incoming packets will be decreased.This leads to your slower Internet speed.Internet speed can be increased by by clearing the route to the server.
This can be done by upgrading costly software and hardware.This will optimize your system speed.And Increase your system speed.Internet tweak is the best software which increases your system speed for further applications.Another software Windows power tools which makes windows faster and increases your Internet speed.And decreases downloading time.It optimizes LAN,CABLE,DSN etc.Another software "Internet cyclone"which increases your Internet speed from 64kbps to 120kbps.
This tip is designed for increased BROADBAND speed in Windows XP while using standard Network Interface cards (NIC) that are connected to ADSL modems, or when using any directly-connected USB ADSL modem.
To speed up the Internet connection speed we need to configure a special buffer in the computer's memory in order to enable it to better deal with interrupts made from the NIC or the USB modem.
This tip is only recommended if you have 256MB RAM or higher.
Step #1 - Identify the IRQ used by the NIC/USB modem
1. Open the System Information tool by running MSINFO32.EXE from the Run command.
2. Expand System Summary > Hardware Resources > IRQ's.
3. Look for the listing made for your NIC (in my case - a Intel® PRO/100+ Management Adapter). Note the IRQ next to the specified line (in my case - IRQ21).
In case of USB modems you will first need to find the right USB device used by your modem. Follow these steps:
1. Open the Device Manager tool by running DEVMGMT.MSC from the Run command (or by right-clicking My Computer > Hardware tab > Device Manager button).
2. Scroll down to Universal Serial Bus controllers and expand it.
3. Right-click the USB Root Hub and select Properties. Note that you might need to do so for all listed USB Root hubs (if there are more than one) in order to find the right one.
4. In the Power tab, look for your USB ADSL modem.
5. In the Resources tab look for the assigned IRQ (in this case - IRQ21).
6. This is the IRQ we're looking for.
Note: IRQ's and modem names might vary...
Step #2 - Modify the system.ini file
1. Run SYSEDIT.EXE from the Run command.
2. Expand the system.ini file window.
3. Scroll down almost to the end of the file till you find a line called [386enh].
4. Press Enter to make one blank line, and in that line type IRQX=4096 where X is the designated IRQ number we found in step #1, in my case it's IRQ21.
Note: This line IS CASE SENSITIVE!!!
5. Click on the File menu, then choose Save.
6. Close SYSEDIT and reboot your computer.
Done. Speed improvement will be noticed after the computer reboots.
This is for broadband ADSL in india and think is working on all BroadBand .Some ISPs will bind username to specific router so this trick mite not work on those ISPs.
Step 1: Download any port Scanner (i preffer Super Scan or IPscanner)
Step 2: First Get your ip from
CODEwww.whatismyip.com
Asume your IP to be 59.x.x.17
Step 3: copy your ip in IPscanner Software and scan for alive IPs in the below range
start:59.x.x.1 to End:59.x.x.255
Step 4: Then check in your scanner which alive IPs has the port 80 open or somthing
Step 5: Enter that IP in your web browser
Step 6: It asks for user , pass
type user=admin password=admin
It is the default password for most of the routers.
if denied then use on another alive IP
Step 7: If success then it will show router settings page of tht IP user
There goto Home -> Wan Setting and the username and password of his account will appear there.
Step 8: use ShowPassword or Revelation software to view the password in asterisks
now you have username/password

How do I clean my system???
To remove the virus without any antivirus software,reboot in the MSDOS mode. Then go to the windows/system directory by typing
c:\windows>cd system
Then,delete ska.exe and ska.dll by typing:
c:\windows\system>del ska*
Then delete wsock32.dll by typing
c:\windows\system>del wsock32.dll
Then rename your original wsock2.dll, which was renamed by the worm to wsock32.ska back to wsock32.dll. To do so type the following at the DOS Prompt:
c:\windows\system>ren wsock32.ska wosck32.dll
Hope you could do this
All the best
