In the folder, you will see all of the items that show up in the drop down. Most of these are actually shortcuts to those places, though a few are drives, commands to zip, or special system shortcuts to places like the Desktop or ‘My Documents’. Because they’re shortcuts, any other shortcuts you place in this folder will also show up in your Send To drop d
Let’s first set up a dynamic tunnel for port 1080. The port you use for a dynamic tunnel is actually arbitrary, but since port 1080 is often used for SOCKS proxies that’s what we’ll use. Type 1080 in the Source port field, select Dynamic as the port type, and then click the Add but
Losing your valuable files as a result of a hard drive failure, virus attack or even accidental file deletion can be very devastating. Whether it’s your photos, giant music collection, important documents – data loss is always costly and stressful. Hard drives always crash, it’s just a matter of time, therefore DO regular backups. Especially when there are so many free backup software options that can run regular backups automatically. Just set it once to run scheduled backups every week or so and forget about them. Then when disaster happens you will be able to restore your files in no t
In term of precision, SpeedCrunch is able to hold up to 50 decimals of precision. When dealing with intense and complex calculation, this high precision ensures that you get less rounding errors in the
Comodo has different backup modes: copy, move and synchronization. So apart from simply copying/moving the files from one place to another you can set Comodo to keep source and backup copy synchronized. That is to say, whenever you make some changes to the original files the changes will be replicated on your backup c
Constants library – If you have difficulties remembering the value for atomic mass or astronomical units, don’t worry, it is all documented in the constants library. This library contains most of the constant values you will ever n
An even better alternative is DropBox , however since it’s still in beta, you will have to wait for the next round of invites before you can get in. With DropBox you’re also able to access your files from other PCs, keep them synchronized across multiple computers and even keep a detailed log of all changes made to the file and restore it to an earlier version. Quite useful for people who work from multiple locati
The reason we set up the source port to 3390 is because the Remote Desktop Client will not allow you to connect to the default remote desktop port (3389) on the local machine. So that’s why we used 3390 instead (we could have used any port, I just use 3390 because it’s easy for me to rememb
If you are looking for a desktop calculator to handle complex mathematical calculations, SpeedCrunch would make a good choice. One thing that it is missing is the lack of a graphing ability for people to plot graphs and perform graphical calculations. Other than that, I have no complaints about this
It is also useful if you are surfing on a network where you may be concerned about others observing your traffic. Perhaps you are connecting from a hotel, a client view publisher site, or from work (you didn’t learn that from me) and you do not want others monitoring your traf
What happens when BitTorrent meets Hamachi meets remote desktop meets networking? Well you get something similar to Remobo (no longer available). Remobo lets you create an IPN which is an Instant Private Netw
SpeedCrunch is a high precision and powerful freeware desktop calculator for Windows, Mac and Linux. It is easy to use and is loaded with plenty of useful features and functions (as in mathematics functio
In addition, SpeedCrunch records all your calculations and place them in its history. Whenever you need to re-enter the same expression, simply load up the history panel and select the one that you entered previously. If you are doing a lot of intense calculations, this is going to be very help
You can set as many rules as you like, for example mails from your mom’s eMail address that contain your sister’s name in the message body and are CC’d to your dad should be sorted into the urgent family business folder. For each new rule click the + button behind the last r
Now when you first saw this tool, if you even noticed it at all, you probably thought it was pretty terrible. Most of the locations on the list, by default, are fairly useless. The only way I ever used ‘Send To’ in the past was to create shortcuts and put them on the Desktop. What you see above is my newly cleaned-up and customized ‘Send To’ m
(By) Varun Kashyap, who is getting absent minded and forget to mention his name in the last two articles. And before he forgets, he would like to invite you to his TechCrazy Blog, where he writes about latest on the web, tech tips, tweaks and ha
Of course you cannot just sort mails into folders. You can have the message filters perform several other actions as seen in the menu pictured above. For example, automatically “Mark As Read”, “Tag Message” or (the coolest) reply with a template. If required you can have the message filter carry out multiple actions on the same eM
