Yahoo Web Messenger
Yahoo has released a new Flash version of its Messenger for the Web. Compared to the earlier javascript version, this one is simply amazing. Its still in the beta stage.The best part of using the Web version is no downloading, no installation .Just login and start chatting. Also since it loads in the browser, may work in places where IM clients are blocked. Go try it now. When chatting with many people, the chats open as tabs. So no problem of juggling the chat windows.

How I created the Joke program.
A post after a long time delay. I am about to reveal the much awaited trick for creating the 'simple' joke program.Before reading this run this file on your own PC.

Thats the joke program mentioned
here. Its harmless. Let the PC restart and come back here. A pop up box will come during every next startup. Something like thisNow that you have seen what happens we'll see how it happens.

Open the registry by typing regedit in the run dialog box.Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

On the right pane look out for 'LegalNoticeCaption'. Double click it. What do you see? Yes http://cooltechtrix.blogspot.com .

That's the title of the Dialog box that comes up. You can change it to whatever you want.Now just below that you will see 'LegalNoticeText' .

Open it and you can see the text of the dialog box. Again you can put in your own words.This is how it is done. But how to implement this in another computer where you just send a exe file? The trick is in using inf files and a hidden windows utility which I will be sharing in the next tutorial.To bring back your PC to normalcy run this file.

Reduce the Scan Disk check time delay.
"One of your disks needs to be checked for consistency. Youmay cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended that you continue.."Every windows user would have encountered this message. Yes and its "recommended that you continue". However the time delay of 10 seconds is what irritates me. By making a small tweak in the registry, we can change the time delay.
Start registry from Run----> regedit.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager .
Don't expand the Session Manager tree.
On the right pane look out for 'AutoChkTimeOut' .If its not there right-click--->New--->Dword value. Rename it as 'AutoChkTimeOut'.
Now double click it and give the desired time delay in seconds. [Choose Decimal while giving delay]. Press OK.

If the entry is not found, the default count down of 10 seconds will be used. If it is set to 0 second, there will not be any count down. If it is set to more than 3 days (259,200 seconds), the default value will be used.Thats all. Now reboot for the changes to take place. The next time Scan Disk starts, there will be delay of the time you have specified. If you want to confirm it then right-click on any drive ---->properties---->Tools---->Check Now. Tick both and then start. When prompted for check on next system startup click yes.I have kept a delay of 3 seconds on my PC.
