Fastest way to block USB Ports

Operating Systems 1 Comment »

USB ports are becoming serious headaches to System Admins and ordinary PC owners. With USB ports open a system becomes vulnerable to outside virus/worm/trojan threats and corporate/personal data is in danger of theft. So, there are lots of ways to prevent USB ports, especially there are 3rd party fancy paid or free apps. But you can do this in just 1 minute. Just open the registry editor by typing “regedit” to run. Open the following path.

“HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet \Services\UsbStor”

In the right pane, double click on the “Start” and type “4″ in the Value field. That’s all. If you want to enable ports just change the value to “3″.

Ping

iPhone No Comments »

It has been 2 days using Ping. It really is useful. It is an alternative to SMS. It delivers messages through push technology. So you can use any internet connection (wifi, edge, 3g). Sure it will be a lot cheaper than SMS. The app was free when I downloaded it, but is now $ 0.99. It is worth trying if you want to lower phone bill.

How to discharge iPhone battery ?

iPhone 1 Comment »

Here is how. The idea is came into my mind in seconds. A few weeks before I have downloaded iPhone massage application from AppStore (free) for my neck pain, which can enables iPhone to continuosly or intermittently vibrate. While I was trying to discharge my iPhone battery to calibrate it, suddenly I have realized that it would be a nice idea to use the app. Battery was nearly %9 percent, and It has finished in minutes. By the way the app is completely useless until I find this idea :) You should know that Apple recommends you to fully discharge and recharge iPhone battery once a month (this prolongs the battery time.) and you have to replace your battery after 400 total discharge-recharge period.

Google Wave

Internet, Social No Comments »

“Communicate & Collaborate in real time” says Google. A new but a belated step from Google for Social Networking. I’m pretty sure you are so late Google, Facebook has already digested its huge bite from the cake of social networking. Google has a single advantage, Google account owners need not to register again. Anyways, let’s say hi to wave.

Monkey Island 5

Gaming No Comments »

Have you heard that Monkey Island is back ? Telltale Games releases “Tales of Monkey Island” I’m dead sure that it won’t give the pleasure and the taste of “The Curse of the Monkey Island”. Good bye good old times.
