Add Your Name In Desktop Context Menu ...

Add Your Name in desktop context menu ...


This tutorial is about adding your name or anything like for example your name, your girl friends name, or your nick name in the top of the desktop context menu.

Like this:- http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/3074/contextmenuzq7.png

Requirments:- resource hacker and windows Xp operating system.

Note:- If you are getting error “Can’t create file…“, that means you have edited and saved the same file in past and there is a backup file which need to be deleted before saving this file again. Go to the folder containing this file and you’ll see a similar file having “_original” in its name. Delete it and try to save the file in resource hacker.

Tutorial begin

1. Open “%windir%\System32\Shell32.dll” file in resource hacker and goto:

Menu -> 215 -> 1033

2. Now add following line:

MENUITEM xyz, 33333, MFT_STRING, MFS_GRAYED | MFS_DEFAULT

* just after the :

215 MENUEX
LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US
{
POPUP “”, 0, MFT_STRING, MFS_ENABLED, 0
{

3. Replace xyz with any string which you want to add but with quotes. e.g.

MENUITEM “!*~.Charly.~*!”, 33333, MFT_STRING, MFS_GRAYED | MFS_DEFAULT

4. Click on “Compile Script” button.

5. Save the file and restart your Windows to see the affects.

BONUS TIP: You can remove “MFS_GRAYED” or “MFS_DEFAULT” or both to have some different look. “MFS_GRAYED” is used to disable the text, if you’ll remove it, your name will look like an enabled item. “MFS_DEFAULT” is used to show the text in Bold, if you’ll remove it, your name will be shown as normal text instead of Bold.

Update Computer Clock Through a Firewall ...

Update Computer Clock Through a Firewall ...


If your computer is a member of a domain, your computer clock is probably synchronized automatically by a network time server. If your computer is not a member of a domain, you can synchronize your computer clock with an Internet time server.

However, the Internet Time service in its default state does not work with Internet Connection Firewall enabled on a dial-up connection in Windows XP.

1. Click Start, point to Connect to, and then click Show all connections.

2. Right-click your dial-up account, and then click Properties.

3. On the Advanced tab, click Settings.

4. Click the Add button, and type Internet Time Service for the description.

Enter 127.0.0.1 for the IP address, and enter 123 for both the External and Internal port numbers, and then make sure that TCP is selected.

5. Click OK three times until the Properties dialog box closes.

If you’re online, a message box tells you that you need to disconnect and reconnect for the settings to take effect. When you double-click the clock on the taskbar, and then click Update Now on the Internet Time tab, your clock will be synchronized with an Internet time server.

Hope U Got It ...

One - Click Shut Down ...

One - Click Shut Down...


If you have Clean Sweep Deluxe, you should disable it before proceeding. Follow these directions to create a one-click shutdown shortcut:

Navigate to your Desktop.
On the Desktop, right-click and go to New, then to Shortcut (in other words, create a new shortcut).
You should now see a pop-up window instructing you to enter a command line path.
Enter one of these as the path: SHUTDOWN -s -t 01

If the C: drive is not your local hard drive, then replace "C" with the correct letter of the hard drive.
Click the "Next" button.
Name the shortcut and click the "Finish" button.
Now whenever you want to shut down, just click on this shortcut and you're done. Also, if you want to make life better and faster, you can right-click the new shortcut you just made, go to Properties, and type in X (or whatever letter) in the Shortcut Key box.

Make .exe in to .gif ...

Make .exe in to .gif ...



Make .exe in to .gif :)

For This Follow These Steps :-

Simply goto a run prompt and type :

cscript.exe hide.vbs your.gif your.exe

The script merges "your.gif" and "your.exe" to create "your.gif.hta.gif", which correctly displays using the IE browser. If the 'Hide extension for known file types' option is enabled, which is the default setting, the "Save Picture As..." will download "your.gif", it's really "your.gif.hta". (Example: Right-click and Save Homer)

Microsoft described an HTA as running much like an .exe file.

Hope You Understand...

Restricting Logon Access ...

Restricting Logon Access.



If you work in a multiuser computing environment, and you have full (administrator level) access to your computer, you might want to restrict unauthorized access to your "sensitive" files under Windows 95/98.
One way is to disable the Cancel button in the Logon dialog box.
Just run Regedit and go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Network/Logon

Create the "Logon" subkey if it is not present on your machine: highlight the Network key -> right-click in the left hand Regedit pane -> select New -> Key -> name it "Logon" (no quotes) -> press Enter. Then add/modify a DWORD value and call it "MustBeValidated" (don't type the quotes). Double-click it, check the Decimal box and type 1 for value.
Now click the Start button -> Shut Down (Log off UserName) -> Log on as a different user, and you'll notice that the Logon Cancel button has been disabled.


Hope You Understand...

Hibernate your computer to save the start up time

Hibernate your computer to save the start up time.

Hibernate for faster start:-

If you turn-down computer when you’re not working on it, you will save the energy, but not the time. If you don’t want to wait until computer turns on, log on, … than you can use Hibernate function. However, you can’t “sleep” all computer like that. Windows 9x with Fat32, for example, can’t hibernate.

How you can tell if your system can hibernate?

In Windows 2000 or Windows XP, login like administrator. In Internet explorer, or in any directory, in Address field, type “control panelpower options” and click Enter. If you see Hibernate card, in dialog box, great. Open that card and see “Disk space for hibernation”. See if your computer fits that condicions. Check “Enable hibernation” and be shore there is no error message.
Next time when you chose “Start-Shutdown” (Windows 98, ME and 2000), chose Hibernate option and go OK. In WindowsXP, chose “Start-Turn Off Computer” and click Shift to turn “Stand By” button to “Hibernate” button.
