Windows XP unattended install

An unattended install on Windows XP is simply a practical method of automatic deployment of windows Xp which can be very useful when you have a large number of computers with different hardware and software profiles that will obviously require different configurations.

Unattended installs require the use of the Winnt or Winnt32 command line utilities ( depending on whether the computer is a 16 or 32 bit existing configuration) and the set up of a configuration files or answer files, usually called unattend.txt, which will provide configuation information during the install ( as opposed to an attended install where an operator would have to manually input the configuation information during the installation process).

Often when doing an unattended installation a distribution server will be used to install Windows XP but it can also be done with a Windows professional CD. Unattended installs also allow the facility to do custom installs to support different configurations within an organisation, simply adding additional set up files in the distribution folder and amendments to the answer files. using this method a custom install can be done loading Windows Xp AND applications required on local machine saving many hours in large organisations.

Internet scams fraud

If you, like the millions of people worldwide, have an e-mail address, the chances are you’ve gotten one of these fraudulent emails. There are those that tell you that millions of dollars of government funds are waiting for you ( the most famous of which is probably the Nigeria internet fraud. There are other emails that seek your assistance to help transfer huge sums of money across national borders (for a healthy commission of course). There are still others that offer to provide you with unbelievable discounts from products ranging from Viagra to the latest software. All of them sound too good to be true, most probably are but, without exception, they come under what has come to be known as Internet fraud or scams and are common in todays fast moving information highway environment!

Clear search history in browser

Now my friend, do you want to know how clear search history? Why should anybody need to do this? Well, of course, some of us want to erase evidence of visits to porn sites or perhaps dating websites or other sites which we would like to keep personal to ourselves. In addition sometimes, browsers, ISPs, or desktops, can get jammed, hang, or screw up visibily, so users need to clear search history, clear the cache, and delete the pre-existing cookies and/or temporary internet files to get optimum usability back again and also hide any personal items if computer used is shared with others. You may like pornography but you certainly dont want you wife ( or worse children) to have a record of pages you have viewed!

Best all in one inkjet printers

OK, how many business/personal computing or printing devices do you have in your home office? You probably have a printer for sure, you might also have a scanner to convert conventional photographs, images or documents into a digital format. You will most likely have a fax machine in order to send/receive documents. And, if you are like the majority of home offices nowadays, you probably also have a copier to make multiple copies of your documents. The trouble is, you probably have all these devices located at various corners of the office. And managing them and their respective supplies can be a nightmare and if , like me, you only have the use of the spare bedroom for your home office, pretty soon you can find yourself running out of space!

Housing for underwater digital camera

Housing for underwater digital cameras

Memories are created just about anywhere. And when I say anywhere, I mean that memories are even created underwater – so the creation of underwater digital camera.

Camera digital photography underwater

An underwater digital camera is not just used to capture underwater memories; some professional marine photographers also use underwater digital cameras in their business. Even marine biologists and scientists use underwater digital cameras to capture marine life and thus be able to study the life and properties of the marine life. But I think it is safe to assume that you, my reader, are neither a marine scientist nor a professional photographer. Like me, you are just some photo junkie who wants to capture underwater moments and just cant figure out how without ruining your cameras.

Free zip download program

If you enjoy any kind of media that is electronic, be it books, music, pictures, movies, software etc, you will need some sort of zip download program. Zipping is a way to take a large file and make it smaller thereby enabling faster dowloads, using mathematical equations to shrink it down to size. Some programs can be made up to 85% smaller or even more using these zip utilities. This is very useful because a movie can be huge – hundreds of megs (Mb)or even gigs (Gb) in size.
