Today is 24th March 2007 and for those who already know, today is the Shutdown Day.

I voted for “I can” but when the day comes, I can’t turn off my PC and I still online till now. And I want to tell you that, this computer has not been shutdown since 2 days ago. Ho3.

So, how about you? Shut it off or keep it on? Hmm…let me guess. I think you are one of those who vote for “I cannot” cause you are still online, right? ;)) [tags]shutdown, pc, shutdown day[/tags]

If you listen to musics while chatting with your friends, I guess you need this thing to show them how cool you are. b-)

Larkington’s Yahoo Messenger Winamp Plugin is a additional feature that will set your Yahoo! Messenger status message to the title of the song currently playing on your Winamp. There are also some other Winamp plugins which are working with the same concept but this plugin is better than the others. And I’m currently using it on my PC and this plugin works perfectly. <:-p

But if you have created custom Yahoo! Messenger status message, you need to delete all the messages because, this plugin will rotate the messages instead of displaying the song currently playing on your Winamp. :-w To delete the custom messages, you need Yahoo! Messenger Status Edit.

Don’t wait any longer, download the plugin and be cool instantly! >:/ [tags]winamp, plugin, yahoo messenger[/tags]

Here are some screenshots taken from the demo version as requested by Madhur Kapoor. Sorry for taking so long to update because the wireless access point that I’m always use to connect was close. And I had to connect to other access point which is much much slower.


C&C3 - Main Menu

In demo version, you can only play the GDI Campaign Demo and one skirmish map. But maybe there will be more maps available in the final release though.

Have you try it yet, Command & Conquer 3 - Tiberium Wars the demo version? I did. Although it is only a demo but the graphics and gameplay are really great. I love the new design of each units and structures in this game.

The landscape, dusts flying, everything are fantastic and smooth. It’s look like a real. Because of I not playing C&C for a long time, it takes time for me to familiar with the concept use to buy and control the units. To move units from a place to a place is differ from before. You need to right-click to move them and left-click on the ground to deselect them.

The demo file size is 1.14Gb. Yea, it is really big but it is worth. I downloaded it at night so I can sleep and leave the download till it finish. You can start your download from here .

I can’t wait the final release. If my dad know about I have the demo version, I’m sure he also want to play it too. He3. :d [tags]command & conquer, pc game, tiberium wars, ea[/tags]

Here is the deal. Do you dare to shutdown your PC and will not touch it within 24 hours?

Some of you may say, “Of course I can. I still can breath even I throw away the PC”. But maybe some of you will immediately say, “No! I can’t live without my PC. Please let us live together…”

Well, there is a challenge for those who are computer geeky, computer lover or anyone who using computers everyday in their life. I challenge you to shutdown your PC and don’t ever touch or use any computers within 24 hours start on Shutdown Day (24 March 2007). If you can cut your hand away from keyboard and mouse, I admit you are cool. :p

Cypher: I don’t think I can keep my PC off more than 8 hours. [tags]shutdown, pc[/tags]

LogosFor those who are using “illegal” Kaspersky license, now you can get free 3 months legal Kaspersky license key. :)

Go here (don’t bother with the langguage - german) and enter your email in the box and click the button below it. After awhile, check your inbox and you will get 3 months legal Kaspersky license key for free.

Btw do you even heard about Nod32 ? I moved from Kaspersky and currently using it right now. I think it is greater and lighter than Kaspersky. Check the comparison charts. Nod32 only use 4% of resources. Other than that, based on someone’s experience, Nod32 detection for zero-day attack is far better than other antivirus products. ;)[tags]antivirus, kaspersky, license, key, software, nod32[/tags]

Note: New CMS The Grabber has released. New version is 1.4.8. [Last update: 29 May 2007]

It is a pain when we need to wait about an hour after we finished download file from Rapidshare. But for those who have Premium account, they can continue their downloads. Because of that, some helpful programmers create programs that can “cheat” Rapidshare so we (not Premium users) can use it to continue or download multiple files from Rapidshare. But the question is, which one is the best? There are many out there. :(

Lol… Don’t be sad. Cheer up! :p Here is my choice, CMS The Grabber - The Ultimate Rapidshare Downloader !

Because it allows you using multiple proxies, you can download multiple files at once with CMS The Grabber. Some Rapidshare downloaders only grab links from Rapidshare.DE but CMS The Grabber can grab links from both domain, .DE and .COM. And you can forward the links to your download manager (see the image above - “Send to Download Manager”). But the best thing is, it is FREE… :d But still, you can donate to the developer if you want to.

Btw what rapidshare downloader you are currently using? Try Use CMS The Grabber. I recommended it! :d Click on the download link below if you want to use it now. ;) [tags]rapidshare, cms grabber, the grabber, download, software[/tags]

Download: CMS The Grabber v1.4.7C
Password: www.cmszone.org
MD5-Hash (of the RAR file, not .EXE): cbe24f2dbc75917fef750bce8bb75b42

Important

  1. After you download the program check MD5 hash of the RAR file to be sure it is clean (download the MD5 utility from here and run MD5 GrabberArchive.rar in the console window - cmd).
  2. Run the program immediately (necessary to activate it)
  3. Keep Grabber.EXE and Grabber.INI files in a safe place. Without Grabber.INI, the program may be deactivated at any time; with it, it will work forever (or until rapidshare changes its site(s)).

Note: Grabber.INI is valid only for your computer. It will not work on another computer.

Many peoples talk about Windows Vista nowadays. It is kind of the ultimate product from Microsoft. From the graphics used, the new systems and softwares version embed, and everything else.

379433552 6bc2f0f29aBut to run Windows Vista (Vista) as smooth as it is to be, you must make sure that your computer is ready for Vista. Vista need, urm… well…sort of high system performance. If you are not sure whether your computer system is ready for Vista or not, take your PC to Vista Readiness test.

Vista Readiness will check your system and see if your current system specifications are compatible with Vista or not. It will perform 7 tests and you must run the tests in Microsoft Internet Explorer. This is because, Vista Readiness will run ActiveX to gather all the informations needed for the tests.

After that, Vista Readiness will display the result. There will be two categories, Minimum Requirements and Recommended. For Minimum Requirements, it is the basic specifications needed to run Windows Vista Basic. But Vista Readiness not recommend you to upgrade your current Windows to Windows Vista unless your system passed the Recommended specifications.

Btw there is another tool to check your system, Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor. Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor is a 32-bit application that will help you to determine if your Windows XP-based PC can run Windows Vista. Download the application and run Upgrade Advisor.

But I have a question to ask, if your computer is ready for Vista upgrade, will you upgrade it? [tags]windows, microsoft, windows vista, vista, software[/tags]
