Information

You are currently browsing the CypherHackz.Net weblog archives for the year 2007.

This domain will expire on 19th December 2007. So I decided to renew this domain for longer periods. Instead of renewing it to one year, I have extended it to 2 years (want to extend it to 5 years but don’t have enough money :p ).

Why you should renew your domain? Of course the main reason is you don’t want to lose your domain. If you lose the domain, you need to pay thousands or even millions just to get back the domain. So you choose, which one is better? Pay $35 renewal fee (nowadays the price is cheaper) or $372 million to get back the mp3.com domain.

And if you want to renew your domain, I suggest you to renew it for more than one year. Like what I did, I extended this domain for two years. It is true that you need to pay more but it is worth. Because your website will be ranked greater in search engines because search engine like Google will check when your domain will expire.

When each time you boot up your PC, Windows will also load the applications which has been set to start at startup. When there are more applications in the Startup list, your PC will become slower and slower to boot. Although you can remove the unwanted applications from the Startup list, your PC is still become slower and that is why we need this useful application.

I really want to use Ubuntu. Even though I already got the free CDs (read this post on how you can get free Ubuntu CDs) since version 5.10 but I still not yet install Ubuntu on my computer. Psst…btw I have the latest Ubuntu version 7.10. There are 15 CDs left. Who want one? Lol…

While I was looking for something that is interesting about Ubuntu, I found this cool application that will install Ubuntu directly from your Windows. No need to do partitioning, no need to smash your head to do the Ubuntu setup, the only thing that you need is, Wubi.

Wubi is a Ubuntu installer that will install Ubuntu from your Windows. Which means, you can install Ubuntu exactly like you install games or other applications in Windows. And if you don’t like it, you can uninstall it from Add/Remove Programs.

Working as a freelancer in Wordpress theme coding needs more browsers to check the theme alignment and the structure. Because each browser will display the website differently especially in IE6 and lower version.

The navigation bars are half hidden in IE6 but not in IE7

My computer has IE7 and I can’t get to have IE6 installed because only one version is allowed in a PC. But there is a solution if you want to have multiple IEs on your computer. We called it as Multiple IE.

To clean your CRT monitor or LCD screen is not like cleaning your face mirror. Monitor and LCD is an electronic product so you must clean the screen with care, or you will scratch it and harm it. Before you can start doing your job, you need to get the correct tools first. Here is what we need:

1. Dry soft cloths (no tissue paper please)
2. Water (I prefer using water than using other chemical to clean my monitor)
3. Compressed air

Clean your CRT monitor
Clean CRT monitor is easier than cleaning LCD screen. CRT monitor has glass screen so you just need to wipe the screen out. After you switch off the monitor, spray the screen with compressed air to remove the dust from the screen. This dust will leave tiny scratch if you not remove it from the screen. Next, spray the water on to a dry cloth and wipe the monitor screen with it. Don’t ever spray the water directly to the screen. We don’t want to make any trouble, do you? After you wipe the screen with the cloth, then wipe the screen dry with another dry cloth.

They said Firefox 3 can prevents you from malware but there is no proof. That is why Mozilla gives you a test page to proof their words.

Caution! The page you will see is containing malware. Your browser will open it if it does not has malware protection enabled. Only Firefox 3 will prevent you from opening that page.

If you are you ready to take the test, please click the image below to go to the malware page. But remember, there is no turning back. >:)

firefox3-only

Note: I don’t have Firefox 3 and have visited the page with my Firefox 2. So if you are using Firefox 3 and have done the test, can you please give your thoughts here. Thank you.
