Crack Wifi Network WEP Password with Backtrack Linux

2012-01-28T09:55:00.007+07:00

Cracking Wifi network is difficult for some peoples because now almost all of wifi network is well protected. Especially that protected with password. But, it doesn't mean cracking a wifi network is impossible. Now, i will show you how to crack wifi network WEP Password by using backtrack linux which is a popular for hacking tool. What will you need to do this? Check this out

Unless you’re a computer security and networking ninja, chances are you don’t have all the tools on hand to get this job done. Here’s what you’ll need

A compatible wireless adapter :This is the biggest requirement. You’ll need a wireless adapter that’s capable of packet injection, and chances are the one in your computer is not.

A BackTrack 3 Live CD : We already took you on a full screenshot tour of how to install and use BackTrack 3, the Linux Live CD that lets you do all sorts of security testing and tasks. Download yourself a copy of the CD and burn it, or load it up in VMware to get started. (I tried the BackTrack 4 pre-release, and it didn’t work as well as BT3. Do yourself a favor and stick with BackTrack 3 for now.)

A nearby WEP-enabled Wi-Fi network : The signal should be strong and ideally people are using it, connecting and disconnecting their devices from it. The more use it gets while you collect the data you need to run your crack, the better your chances of success.

Patience with the command line: This is an ten-step process that requires typing in long, arcane commands and waiting around for your Wi-Fi card to collect data in order to crack the password. Like the doctor said to the short person, be a little patient.

Cracking The WEP
To crack WEP, you’ll need to launch Konsole, BackTrack’s built-in command line. It’s right there on the taskbar in the lower left corner, second button to the right. Now, the commands.

First run the following to get a list of your network interfaces:

airmon-ng

The only one I’ve got there is labeled ra0. Yours may be different; take note of the label and write it down. From here on in, substitute it in everywhere a command includes (interface).

Now, run the following four commands. See the output that I got for them in the screenshot below.

airmon-ng stop (interface)
ifconfig (interface) down
macchanger --mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 (interface)
airmon-ng start (interface)

If you don’t get the same results from these commands as pictured here, most likely your network adapter won’t work with this particular crack. If you do, you’ve successfully “faked” a new MAC address on your network interface, 00:11:22:33:44:55.

Now it’s time to pick your network. Run:

airodump-ng (interface)

To see a list of wireless networks around you. When you see the one you want, hit Ctrl+C to stop the list. Highlight the row pertaining to the network of interest, and take note of two things: its BSSID and its channel (in the column labeled CH), as pictured below. Obviously the network you want to crack should have WEP encryption (in the ENC) column, not WPA or anything else.

Like I said, hit Ctrl+C to stop this listing. (I had to do this once or twice to find the network I was looking for.) Once you’ve got it, highlight the BSSID and copy it to your clipboard for reuse in the upcoming commands.

Now we’re going to watch what’s going on with that network you chose and capture that information to a file. Run:

airodump-ng -c (channel) -w (file name) --bssid (bssid) (interface)

Where (channel) is your network’s channel, and (bssid) is the BSSID you just copied to clipboard. You can use the Shift+Insert key combination to paste it into the command. Enter anything descriptive for (file name). I chose “yoyo,” which is the network’s name I’m cracking.

You’ll get output like what’s in the window in the background pictured below. Leave that one be. Open a new Konsole window in the foreground, and enter this command:

aireplay-ng -1 0 -a (bssid) -h 00:11:22:33:44:55 -e (essid) (interface)

Here the ESSID is the access point’s SSID name, which in my case is yoyo. What you want to get after this command is the reassuring “Association successful” message with that smiley face.

You’re almost there. Now it’s time for:

aireplay-ng -3 -b (bssid) -h 00:11:22:33:44:55 (interface)

Here we’re creating router traffic to capture more throughput faster to speed up our crack. After a few minutes, that front window will start going crazy with read/write packets. (Also, I was unable to surf the web with the yoyo network on a separate computer while this was going on.) Here’s the part where you might have to grab yourself a cup of coffee or take a walk. Basically you want to wait until enough data has been collected to run your crack. Watch the number in the “#Data” column you want it to go above 10,000. (Pictured below it’s only at 854.)

Depending on the power of your network (mine is inexplicably low at -32 in that screenshot, even though the yoyo AP was in the same room as my adapter), this process could take some time. Wait until that #Data goes over 10k, though because the crack won’t work if it doesn’t. In fact, you may need more than 10k, though that seems to be a working threshold for many.

Once you’ve collected enough data, it’s the moment of truth. Launch a third Konsole window and run the following to crack that data you’ve collected:

aircrack-ng -b (bssid) (file name-01.cap)

Here the filename should be whatever you entered above for (file name). You can browse to your Home directory to see it; it’s the one with .cap as the extension.

If you didn’t get enough data, aircrack will fail and tell you to try again with more. If it succeeds, it will look like this:

The WEP key appears next to “KEY FOUND.” Drop the colons and enter it to log onto the network.

I hope this trick about cracking wifi network will be useful for you. But don't use it too often, this is an illegal activities that harm each others. Just contact us if you have some questions to ask :)

Some SEO Trick You have to Avoid

2012-01-21T13:19:00.005+07:00

After i write some SEO blogging tricks in my previous blog posts, i think it's time to discuss few common SEO (search engine optimization) little mistakes . This few wrong SEO tricks will down the visibility of your blog in search engine result page. Because, by doing the right SEO, will increase Google page rank and increase traffic to your blog/website. So you must avoid these SEO mistakes to make descent traffic to your blog or website.

This are some SEO tricks that will make your site fall down from SERP :

1. Hiding content inside images

Some webmasters used to display their content inside the images. Search engines will not be able to read the content inside images.

2. Use excessive Java Script/AJAX

Search Engines can’t understand JavaScript/Ajax. So chance to getting index is less with excessive number of Java script/AJAX. Use HTML/CSS instead of Java/AJAX.

3. Use Flash only websites

Even though the Flash can make an exciting blog, search engines can’t read the content inside the flash. You can make up your blog by flash scripts but never add your content inside the flash scripts. Use HTML instead of flash.

4. Usage of Search engine friendly URLs rather than human friendly URLs.

Don’t use unrelated URLs. Use appropriate URL which can describe your content. Don’t worry about the length of the URL

5. Use automated directory submission software

Never use automated software for directory submission. They will consider them as spams. Your blog will get banned from those directories. Use manual submission as an alternative. Submit to well-established directories by using unique Titles and Descriptions. Then they will not consider as copies.

6. Link exchange programs

This is a time wasting program. No value. You will get nothing. Other thing is your link will be removed after few days without informing you. I did this for this blog and got nothing.

7. Use the same meta title and meta description in every page of the blog

Once you use same title and Meta descriptions for all the posts the search engines will consider all the posts as one post. Then your whole site will not index. So use different Meta tags for different posts. But never use inappropriate Meta descriptions. Place key words inside the content.

8. Use unnecessary key words and usage of excessive key words

Use less competitive keywords rather than using high competitive key words. Then you can get instant traffic from search engines. Use Google Adword key word tool to find appropriate key words

9. Usage of wrong key words

Your key words should match with your content. Key words should summarize the content of your article.

10. Copying someone else’s content and paste it on your site

Never do this, because your site will be penalized by search engines. If you blogging on blogger they will ban your blog as well

11. Poor quality content

Your content should be high in quality. Low quality and duplicated content is penalizing by search engines and you will get nothing by just posting that type of content.

12. Poor site navigation

Your content should be prominent rather than your ads. Pop-up windows should be avoided. Your navigation bar should give links to relevant content

13. Irrelevant links

The links on your site should related to your content and those links should lead to the relevant page

14. Expectation of quick results

SEO is not a quick way to increase traffic to your blog. You need to be patience in order to get results. Sometimes it takes weeks to months to get the desired effect. So you should have sustained motivation to work on SEO.

15. High loading time of the page

Visitors don’t like to waste their time. So you must consider a good hosting plan to improve the loading time of your blog or website.

These are the most common mistakes done by most of the bloggers and site owners. You have to learn and read that carefully. After that you just have to do the right SEO tricks and choose the right SEO tutorial for you to learn.

Stay tune in my blog, i will give you the others SEO secret for you...

How To Secure Your Computer on Public Network(Wireless Hotspot)

2012-01-17T10:32:00.011+07:00

Nowadays, many people got many benefits from the wireless network(hotspot) that've been installed in many place, especially the town square or coffee break place. It means that now internet is an easy thing to get. Now, we will speak about securing your pc or laptop on a wireless network location that called hotspot.

Public Wi-Fi hotspots seem to be available in more locations than ever before. If you move between them a lot or are just getting started, following these security precautions can help keep your machine safe and secure. For this article we look at security steps in Windows 7, but most of these tips and suggestions will work in XP, Vista, and even other operating systems as well.

Enable Your Firewall

Whether you use the Firewall built into Windows or a 3rd-party app like ZoneAlarm, make sure it’s enabled before signing on to a public hotspot. Click on Start then Control Panel, make sure View by large icons is selected then click Windows Firewall.

Then select Turn Windows Firewall on or off…

Then make sure it’s turned on under Home or Work and Public network location settings.

Turn Off All Sharing

File and folder sharing is a great feature in Windows 7 at home, but when you’re on a public network, you don’t want others to see your data. To turn it off, click on the Network icon in the Taskbar and select Open Network and Sharing Center.

Then click on the Change advanced sharing settings hyperlink.

Now make sure to Turn off file and Printer Sharing and Turn off Public folder sharing…make sure you save the changes when you’re done.

Use Correct Public Wi-Fi Connection

Rather than having to worry about changing your settings every time you log on to a Public Network. When you first connect to the Public Hotspot, Windows will ask you to select a location for the Network. For example here we want to connect to the local coffee shop Wi-Fi.

Make sure you choose Public Network…

This will automatically turn off File Sharing, Network Discovery, and Public Folder Sharing.

Use HTTPS Protocol

If you use regular HTTP protocol when connected to a public network, all of your text information can be easily found by an evil geek with a packet sniffer. You will want to use HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) or SSL wherever you can. For example you can set your Gmail and other Google services to always use https when connecting. Open your Gmail account settings, under the General tab scroll down to Browser connection and select Always use https. Again, make sure you click to Save Settings at the bottom of the page.

Then when you go to any Google services linked with that account, you will see https:// before the URL in the Address Bar.

It will work for any browser you’re using.

Another thing to check on your browser to ensure you’re using https is to look for the lock icon in the lower right corner of your browser.

Firefox Addons

If you’re using Firefox and don’t want to worry if Google services switch to https, then check out the OptimizeGoogle addon. Among other awesome ways it allows you to customize Google, you can set it to have all services use https when able.

Another handy Firefox addon from the EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) is HTTPS Everywhere. It will switch to https protocol for several major sites, and you can write your own rulesets with it as well.

Private VPNs

Even with using the addons above, not all sites you visit will be protected with SSL encryption. If you want to make sure you have extra protection, go through a VPN (Virtual Private Network). This `llows you to route your data traffic though a separate and secure network. There are several different free and subscription services that will do this for you but we’ll just take a look at a couple.

ProXPN is an easy to use VPN client. You need to create an account first, then download and install the client. After that log into your account and you’ll be connected to their secure VPN without worrying about traffic from your machine being on the hotspot.

They offer a free and premium version. We found that our connection could be slow at times using the free version, especially on multimedia sites. If you find you’re using Hotspots a lot, you might want to pay the $5/month for the premium version which did produce faster speeds, and ensures higher levels of encryption.

Hotspot Shield is another popular and easy to use VPN utility that runs in the background and creates the VPN automatically.

The biggest caveat is it will display ads and try to install crapware on your machine. Make sure to uncheck any crapware it tries to offer you.

While it will annoy you with ads, it is free and easy to use. If you only need to use it occasionally while at a Hotspot, it might be worth the ad annoyance.

Another thing you might want to consider is setting up your own VPN on your computer or on Windows Home Server. We’ll be writing up a full step by step tutorial on how to create your own VPN in the near future, so stay tuned.

Disable Wi-Fi When not in Use

If you’re not using your Wireless connection while you at a hotspot, simply turn it off. This can be hard to remember, and annoying if you’re constantly doing research online while working. But if you can plan your work around times when you don’t need to be online for good chunk of time, just turn it off. Click on the Wireless icon on the Taskbar right-click the network you’re connected to and Disconnect.

Windows Updates

Make sure you’re keeping your machine updated with the latest security fixes from Microsoft. In the geek community we all know the 2nd Tuesday of every month is called “Patch Tuesday”, when the team from Redmond send out the latest security fixes to plug holes and fix vulnerabilities in the OS, hardware drivers –including wireless patches, and other installed software like MS Office.

However, some vital patches might be released before then so make sure you’re receiving Automatic Updates. You don’t have to have them download and install automatically, but you can have Windows notify you when fixes are available and you can research if you want to add them or not. When in doubt, it’s usually best to just install the updates, and keep note of what they are so you can uninstall them if you find something isn’t working.

Update Antivirus Software

This should also go without saying, but keeping your Antivirus software is extremely important on all of your machines especially on a large public network where there can be a lot of malicious software lurking.

While this is microsoft security essentials, no matter what brand you use, make sure Real-time scanning is enabled.

Use Your Best Judgment

Get to know the folks who are operating the Wi-Fi Hotspot. Ask them the type of encryption they are using on the router and if they seem to know basic Wi-Fi security. If not, you might want to use a different location – especially if they have it wide open.
Don’t enter personal information connected to a Wi-Fi Hotspot unless you’re completely sure everything is safe and encrypted. If you need to do Internet Banking, wait until you’re at home or in the office.
Busy hotpots like at an airport or hotel can have a lot of people on it, who knows what their looking at, but there most certainly are some “bad guys”. Try to use smaller locations like at a library or coffee shop.
When in doubt, just don’t connect. If your online activity can wait, just hold off until you’re sure you’re on a secure network.
Make sure and follow the guidelines described above, if you just connect and leave everything open, there is only yourself to blame.

Behind of Bluetooth wireless device

2011-09-20T11:52:00.003+07:00

Bluetooth is the industry specification for personal area networks (personal area networks, or PAN) without wires. Bluetooth connects and can be used to perform the exchange of information between devices.

Spesification of Bluetooth devices was developed and distributed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group. Bluetooth operates in 2.4 GHz frequency band using a frequency hopping traceiver capable of providing voice and data communication services in real time between bluetooth host-host with limited distance.weakness of this technology is a short range and low data transfer capability.

The presence of bluetooth makes a person no longer mess around with what cable, what color, heading nowhere, and must be plugged in where. The function of the interconnection between the equipment can be replaced by bluetooth chipset that is placed in a built-in electronic equipment related.

The name "Bluetooth" is derived from the name of the king at the end of ten centuries, Harald Blatand which in England is also called Harald Bluetooth. Connotation is not so far wrong, because according to mythology story, supposedly Bluetooth-haired and dark skinned. He likes to eat blueberries or strawberries, then it is worth when the tooth Blatand become bluish or blue tooth.

He is the king of Denmark who has managed to unite the tribes that previously fought, including the tribes of the area now called Norway and Sweden. Even the Scania region in Sweden, where bluetooth technology is found to also include territories. King's ability as a unifier is also similar to bluetooth technology now that can connect various devices such as personal computers and mobile phones.

While the Bluetooth logo comes from the German unification of the two letters which are analogous with the letter H and B (short for Harald Bluetooth), namely H (Hagall) and Runic letter (Blatand) which are then combined.

Beginning of Bluetooth is a wireless communication technology (without cable) that operate in the 2.4 GHz unlicensed frequency band ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) using a frequency hopping transceiver is capable of providing voice and data communication services in real-time between bluetooth host-host with limited service reach distance (around 10 meters).

Bluetooth card that uses the IEEE 802.11 radio frequency standard with a limited range of services and lower ability to transfer data from card to Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN).

Bluetooth formation promoted by five large companies Ericsson, IBM, Intel, Nokia and Toshiba to form a Special Interest Group (SIG), which launched this project. In July 1999 document bluetooth specification version 1.0 was launched.

In December 1999 started again making bluetooth specification documents version 2.0 with the addition of four new promoters of 3Com, Lucent Technologies, Microsoft and Motorola. Currently, more than 1800 companies in various fields to join in a consortium as an adopter of bluetooth technology. Although the standard Bluetooth SIG is currently 'owned' by the promoter group but he is expected to become an IEEE standard (802.15).

Tips Buy Web Hosting

2011-07-23T06:14:00.003+07:00

Web Hosting is one form of rental services on the Internet that allows a person online to the websites / web on the internet. The place is called the hosting of data storage, and usually measured in units of capacity in megabytes (Mb) up to terabytes (Tb) and have a connection to the internet so that data can be requested or accessed by users from all over the place simultaneously. So in short for web hosting is a web hosting or data storage from a web.

With the increasing number of companies that sell web hosting services make consumers confused in determining the choice. There are companies that offer hosting at a great price some are very cheap, there are limits there are also features that include unlimited versatile features, and much more to offer the lure to attract the attention of consumers. As consumers we must be extra careful not to be fooled by the outside appearance of the web hosting company. Here are tips to get the best web hosting, order of things that most need to prioritize.

Tips for Choosing Web Hosting

1. Service

Web hosting is a business-related services, and service means service. Of course you feel very upset if you have difficulty or even problems with the web hosting and then you try to contact Customer Support but no response. For that before buying web hosting, make sure you choose a web hosting company that has customer support that provide the best service.

2. Quality of Server and Network

Consumers who purchase web hosting would want a website and email is always accessible with a smooth, fast, and guaranteed data security. Before you purchase a hosting it is better if you do a check and recek for quality and speed of server access, and of course even better if your web hosting company is giving a trial or a trial account.

3. Rights to the Domain and Hosting You Buy

Goods you have purchased is yours entirely, and make sure you have full access rights over the domain and hosting. Currently there are still many companies that do not give full access rights over its domain, making it difficult if consumers want to move hosting let alone perform the domain transfer to another company.

4. Reliable and Professional Company

In choosing a web hosting company make sure you buy at a trusted because it involves data security and continuity of your business. And choose a responsible company and give warranty for the products it sells.

5. Price

In business services, the price is the last thing that can be used for comparison. Because the same price does not necessarily indicate the same quality. Adage says 'There is no way prices', most of it is true. You should be suspicious if there are companies that provide web hosting prices are very cheap especially with unlimited features. We know that the web hosting servers have restrictions, space (hard drive) has a limit, traffic / bandwidth have limits, and of resources of a computer / server has a limit. But do not close the possibility of good quality can be obtained at a cheap price, for that consumers should be more observant in choosing.

How to Make VPS

2011-07-12T18:56:00.006+07:00

Nowadays a lot of which can be used to create a vpn server from starting a direct form of hardware up to the only form of application, from the expensive to the free.

OpenVPN is a VPN application is free (opensource) is quite reliable. Some sources say OpenVPN is in fact not the safest but if the data must be transferred between two or more networks are not too sensitive like more than enough moreover OpenVPN OpenVPN is also very easy to install.

Here I will just tell you about the installation steps OpenVPN on FreeBSD. Although probably could have used some of his tricks on Linux or * nix like any other OS.

Ok long story rather than let's start it.

First OpenVPN on FreeBSD can be found in the folder / usr / ports / security / openvpn, which is required usually lzo library lib but since I installed it through the ports, then all the dependencies will automatically be installed.

For installation please follow these steps (all performed by root)

cd / usr / ports / security / openvpn
make config
Make the build
make install clean

Performed the above steps so that you have a chance to see what happens at each step. Actually you can just change directory and typing make install clean immediately.

After the installation process goes wrong and no significant errors, then input the following line to / etc / rc.conf with your favorite text editor.

openvpn_enable = "YES"

Now we will create a config file to be placed in the folder / usr / local / etc / openvpn if the folder does not exist yet please make advance with the command

mkdir / usr / local / etc / openvpn

Then please move to the folder and start creating openvpn.conf file with your favorite text editor.

cd / usr / local / etc / openvpn
pico openvpn.conf

Now please enter the following sample config.

# Specify device
dev tun

# # The server and client IP Pool
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt

# Certificates for VPN Authentication
ca / usr / local / etc / openvpn / keys / ca.crt
cert / usr / local / etc / openvpn / keys / server.crt
key / usr / local / etc / openvpn / keys / server.key
dh / usr/local/etc/openvpn/keys/dh1024.pem

# Routes to client
push "route 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0"
# Compression VPN link
comp-lzo

keepalive 10 60
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key

# Run OpenVPN as a daemon and drop privileges to user / group nobody user nobody

Save the file above, and we continue with cerificates. Copy the script to create a certificate from the folder / usr / local / share / doc / openvpn manner as follows (examples copied it to the folder / home / giest please be replaced with your user).

cp-r / usr / local / share / doc / openvpn / easy-rsa / home / guest /
cd / home / guest / easy-rsa

After successfully copying easy-rsa scripts then please adan edit the vars file with your favorite editor and adjust purposes (without dieditpun no problems then you will be given only a few questions over and over again). Here are examples of parts that you need to edit.

export KEY_COUNTRY = ID
export KEY_PROVINCE = "ENGLAND"
export KEY_CITY = LONDON
export KEY_ORG = "GUEST-VPN"
export KEY_EMAIL = "admin@guest.org"

Then we moved from the FreeBSD default shell (usually tcsh) to sh or bash first. If you do not move the shell I guarantee you will not succeed in making certificates for openvpn.

To switch to sh or bash please type the following command.

sh

Once you move the shell follow the steps below.

To client2 just typing

. / Build-key client2

you should replace only the part

[Source] Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []: CLIENT2 [/ source]

If you do not make changes here the certificates and keys for the client to the two would not formed.

Next we build dh parameters with a command like the following

1. #. / Build-dh
2. Generating DH parameters, 1024 bit long safe prime, generator 2
3. This is going to take a long time
4.

ok now completed the process of making key right now you just exit back to your default shell with the command exit

Now copied keys folder to / usr / local / etc / openvpn with the command

cp-r keys / usr / local / etc / openvpn /

Before we start running the openvpn server we first prepare a file for the log. Please edit the file / etc / syslog.conf and add the following line at the bottom of the syslog.conf file.

! Openvpn
.* / Var / log / openvpn.log

then create the file and restart syslog openvpn.log ny

touch / var / log / openvpn.log
killall-HUP syslogd

Now we load the first module tun / tap tun device that could arise later.

kldload if_tun
kldload if_tap

if you find errors kldload: can not load if_tun: File exists mean tun or tap and it was too load so do not worry.

In order to tun and tap was loaded each time the boot please edit the file / boot / defaults / loader.conf then locate the following lines and change to YES

if_tap_load = "YES" # Ethernet tunnel software network interface
if_tun_load = "YES" # Tunnel driver (user process ppp)

Ok lah is now complete we are ready to run the OpenVPN server for the first time. To run OpenVPN please type the following command.

/ Usr / local / etc / rc.d / openvpn start

Next we check whether everything is ready or not we check first with the command ifconfig tun device

tun0: flags = 8051 mtu 1500
inet 10.8.0.1 -> 10.8.0.2 netmask 0xffffffff
Opened by PID 10147

If you've seen a display like the above means that the OpenVPN server is already successful path.

It remains to add the following rules for your pf.conf

# VPN Interface
vpn_if = "tun0"

# VPN Network
vpn_network = "10.8.0.0/24"

# NAT VPN connections
nat on $ ext_if from $ vpn_network to any -> ($ ext_if)

# Inbound VPN connections
pass in on $ ext_if proto udp from any to port 1194 keep state
pass quick on $ vpn_if

hosting tutorial for newbie

2011-07-06T12:28:00.008+07:00

Hosting is a place or Internet service to create web pages that you created online and can be accessed by others. So, based on own experience of hosting, there is one thing to note in terms of renting a hosting for the site that we created, ie: note the true owner of the company's rental service provider hosting, about whether stable or not. Companies that are unstable, potentially aka "bankrupt" or going to close, more or less will cause instability of the sites we manage. For example it could cause problems of domain ownership, the problem of domain transfer process is complicated due to email "hostmaster" no man's land, and so on. Sure we'll hassle of having problems earlier. Therefore choose a company that is stable, although it may cost a little bit expensive. but we can avoide all risk with make own hosting a thome.

In this tutorial we will teach you make own hosting, what need for make it..?

PC for server specification.
ADSL modem with Internet connection Unlimited
XAMPP as Localhost

With the above assumptions infrastructure needs have been installed and an Internet connection Unlimited is the normal way we can make your own webhost with the help of XAMPP.

Now we begin to modify the modem configuration to make a pc that is connected to the adsl who we are as a server host needs as I mentioned above (www, ftp, telnet, etc.).

was logged into your Speedy ADSL Modem
speedy change in the modem connection, which was originally PPPoE / PPPoA (with user & password), Becoming Bridge Mode (without user & password)
Save your Modem Configuration. now to be able to get a dynamic ip from speedy, we switch to the connected PC with Speedy directly or connected through a hub.
open the Network Connection or by clicking Start - Settings - Control Panel - Network Connections
Then Make a PPP connection from your Windows to get a dynamic ip from speedy by clicking Create a new connections with your username and password Speedy
This will bring up Fields Username & Password, if you've followed the above correctly STEP 2, then the box that pops up will have been filled for his column username & password, now to do the connection, press CONNECT
When Speedy connection you two indicators will appear as shown below, and when the ipconfig via DOS, PC You Have 2 IP Address, which is Local IP (private IP) and IP from Speedy (public IP)

From the experiments above, your PC can now be made in servers that can be recognized the world directly, in the sense that can host many needs such as www, ftp, email, etc., for the above role is just as Bridging the modem (it has no IP and as a bridge your speedy internet connection)

Getting a dynamic DNS via DynDNS

DynDNS (Dynamic DNS) - www.dyndns.com is a provider for dynamic DNS and static IP as well as many Sub-Domain that can be used freely and FREE, in this article we will create a sub domain 'anda.subdomain.xxx' with subdomains are dozens of options already available in dyndns.com and periodically updating the domain to always recognize your speedy ip always change because it is dynamic, and supporting software.

Terms and How:

Your internet connection should already connected with your ISP
open this url in your browser: www.dyndns.com
or immediately wrote to create an account at: https://www.dyndns.com/account/create.html
do a confirmation via email before, and click on the url that is in it to activate your account.
when it is activated, your account will be activated immediately
dydns do log into the user + password before
click on the My Services located in upper right corner
menu, select Add Host Services (pl. circumference 1)
then click Add Dynamic DNS Host (pl. circumference 2)

A quick way to make by-pass numbers to 7-9 with a click / copy paste in browser: https://www.dyndns.com/account/services/hosts/dyndns/add.html

Example:

eg the hostname field: yourhost
then with the domain option: blogdns.net
some other setting? default (no change)
then click? Add Host

then the domain url address for your speedy is:

http://yourhost.blogdns.net/

NOTE:

Sub-Domain that you can make a sub-domain you forever
Sub-domains that you created earlier (http://yourhost.blogdns.net/) can not keep changing your ip on speedy unless you follow the last stage of which I will explain below, that will automatically update your dynamic ip with sub -domains at DynDNS
Updating DNS at DynDNS.com process

Updating DNS at DynDNS is very necessary, given ip Speedy you're a Dynamic IP (no IP)

In order to understand changes in the IP DynDNS always speedy, you need to update it regularly on his Web DynDNS, especially when the new modem at the switch, or other factors erosive change ip

To facilitate the process of Updating and updates AUTOMATICALLY, DynDNS has provided its support software provided by Free, which serves to lawyer-updatan automatically sub-domain with your speedy dynamic ip.

Get Free Access Internet WiFi

2011-06-27T11:15:00.006+07:00

WiFi HotSpot As we know, hotspots or wireless internet access with standard 802.11b / g are not familiar stuff our ears, and when we go in public places like the Mall, Cafe, hotels and offices, with our easy to find the facility ..

Unfortunately not all providers offer wireless Internet facilities for free, or if free. extremely limited.
One of the protection used wireless service providers is to restrict Internet access based on MAC Address.
What is MAC Address?
In computer networking a Media Access Control address (MAC address) or Ethernet Hardware Address (EHA) or hardware address or adapter address is a quasi-unique identifier attached to most network adapters (NICs) ..
Okay so the conclusion MAC Address is a unique number that distinguishes each network device that is attached dikomputer us.
An example is the hotspot in hotel hilton. At hilton hotspot The Wireless Internet service providers, limiting the use of the Internet is free only for 3 hours, after that you can not access the Internet again, and would not be able to access again tomorrow. Type of protection used is MAC Address Filtering.
How to break through the protection with a MAC Address?

There is a very useful tool for anda.Tools was named K-MAC Download Dicini
With this tool you will be able to change your MAC-Address instantly and what does it mean? You can break the MAC Address Protection!. Each share of Internet access you run out in 3 hours, you need to do is change your MAC address, and do the connection.
I add more for info. WEP/WPA/WPA-2 cracking passwords using
programs are available in packages of OS backtrack
kismet
Kismet is a security tool that runs Linux, Kismet is used to eavesdrop on data traffic in the Internet network.
Aircrak-Aircrak-PTW PTW is a tool used to crack wireless protected. Each of these notebooks with different specs, so any way to use aircrack different.
One trick is also used to search for passwords which are used by someone to access hotspots that use prepaid cards.
Simple tool that prepared aja sih:
Software required:
1. Angry IP Scanner
2. Technitium MAC Address
Immediately wrote now to how:
# Find the location of the hotspot service provider, certainly in the area of affordable hotspot network is ..
# Turn on your laptop, and also turn on your wireless network and see the wireless network system tray icon, then right click and select view avalible wireless network, and of course after that you must connect to a wireless hotspot your destination.
# After connect, right click the system tray and select status> choose details tab> look there ip given to us. Write down the ip.
# Open the program AngryIP Scanner 2.21 and enter the ip range that we will scan (ip data used were we) at the top. For example: 135.125.1.13 IP that we can then enter the ip in the first column of our range in accordance with an earlier but instead of ip numbers at the end of the first to be 135.125.1.1 and the second column write the same but the number one end was replaced with 255 to 135 125 .1.255. result is 135.125.1.1 to 135.125.1.255 and click start (red button).
# After scanning then we'll get a live ip data connected with these hotspots. after scanning is complete then see the ip of the living (alive hosts) blue right click on the live ip ip Right-click on the blue color was right click> show> mac address and there will be a code mac address (mac addresses sometimes there does not appear, select Just the other ip). Write down the mac address that we get.
# Open the program Technitium MAC Address v5 release 3 which we have prepared. There is a mac address field. well now just change the mac address with which we got earlier and press change mac id.
# Wait for our mac will be replaced and a temporary connection and connect again automatically disconnected itself.
# Go to the firefox web browser, or anything goes. Enjoy Free Internet.
One thing to remember is that our system is the transfer of passenger data to hack an account that we had.
It can outsmart the status of hotspot login page enter it (to account). For example status and so go there it looks prepaid card code number and we simply keep track of, then logout and log back into the hotspot's login page quickly enter the password earlier. This will make us can directly access the Internet without a ride again (because that make us prepaid card code) so if anyone wants to login to use the card (which had a code) when you log in using the card of course he can not enter because prepaid cards.
"Already logged".
How about it, interesting is not it?
But I suggest, as I do is to ride alone, because I do not want to go too far, like the way I Tell to log off and log in again will surely make the owner can not log in. Request permission directly is also a possibility that had not refused, the origin of his interests is urgent.
For Ip Scanning can also use the application Dude, download it here, to determine the condition of the computers connect to the hotspot. Can be tried too ya ..
Hmm, i have some usefull tools again, check it.
WEP and WPA KeyGenerator
Wireless Key Generator
run it live programs generate,, and coffee directly into the network key. ...
Or also you used this application "wifi password finder"
seach it self in search engine :D, all this is just for learning, as long as we are still able to use the legal why not wrote. And this can also be used by the hotspot owner, if in this way can still be used to break into. So it needs more security.

Tutorial Virtual Machine with Virtual box in your Windows

2011-05-20T17:24:00.003+07:00

longtime kartolocyber wasnot update the article, some of us so busy in our study. okey, i'll write about virtual machine in Windows. Sometimes, there is a particular program that we want to run but is plagued with compatibility Operating System (OS). For example there are applications that we know first run on WinXP but now after a try again in Win7 not be opened (crash). Or even it could also have a special application we need to work, but teryata application can only run on Windows while Linux-based computer.

Of course, we can use the system to plant two Dual Booting OS in one computer. But sometimes this method is less practical because more needs to be prepared such as set partitioning, manage files, etc.. In addition, if one day we already do not need a second OS, then the uninstall process was not easy. All too often ended up reformatting, and that means set the partitions and file again.
Actually, there is one practical solution to this, that is by using VirtualBox. With VirtualBox, you can as if making a new computer ( virtual machine ) and install it with the OS you want (Guest OS). More great again, you can run both at the same time, moving from guest to host and vice versa with ease. If it does not need anymore, you just delete it (remove) the virtual machine without a complex process.

Well, in this article I will explain about how to create a virtual machine using VirtualBox. Because many things to be explained, for convenience, so I split them up into several sections, namely: Download & installl Virtual Box, Virtual Machine http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifSetup & Guest OS, and the last is the setting. In this example, I will install WinXP in a virtual machine that will be created. As for his own VirtualBox I run across operating systems Win7. So, the Guest OS and Host OS = WinXP = Win7. Here are the steps:
DOWNLOAD & INSTALL VirtualBox

First download the installer once its in here . Select according to the type of OS you use.

1. After that run its installer file. Click Next> when VirtualBox Setup Wizard appears.

2. Then you can choose the installation location. Click Next> to continue.

3.Choose anywhere you want a shortcut is created, then click Next>

4. Usually will appear warning that the connection to the network is disconnected while on during the installation process. Just click Next>.

5. Click Install to begin the installation process.

6. If UAC appears, click Yes.

7. Up here you've managed to install VirtualBox. Click Finish to run the VirtualBox program

VIRTUAL MACHINE SETUP

Next you need to do is make her a virtual machine. Click New on VirtualBox Manager to get started. You will be greeted by the New Virtual Machine Wizard. Click Next to continue. Here you will choose what type of OS you want to install as guest OS. In this example we will install WinXP. Click Next when done select the type of OS. You can determine how much memory (RAM) for the virtual machine later. Move the slider to the desired number, then click Next.For the first time, make sure you men-centang/contreng Boot Hard Disk and also select Create new hard disk, If so, click Next. Next you will go to the Create New Virtual Disk Wizard. Click Next to continue. You can choose whether the size of virtual hard disk later this magnitude can change or always remain. For savings should you choose a dynamically expanding storage. Click Next if you have selected. Here you can choose the location where the virtual hard disk will be created, it also determines the maximum size hard disk (hard disk maximum size). VirtualBox by default suggested size is 10 G. But you also can set smaller as long as you believe that size is sufficient for your needs later. Click Next. This is a Summary of the Create New Virtual Disk Wizard. Click Finish. It appears that you already have a virtual machine called WinXP, although it is still empty. Now the next task is to fill this virtual machine with the Guest OS. Double-click on the entry to start WinXP.
You will be greeted by First Run Wizard. Just click Next.Here you will select the media you will use as a source installation. In this example I use WinXP CD (bootable of course), which I enter into Drive E (DVD ROM). If so, click Next. This is a Summary of the First Run Wizard. It's good here you have prepared her to drive installer that you selected earlier. Click Finish to begin the installation process. Display WinXP installation will start out. Press Enter to continue. Select Format the partition using the NTFS file system, then press Enter. Please wait until the WinXP installation process is complete.
Congratulations, you now have a WinXP Guest OS on your virtual machine! Before you start "playing around" with this new virtual machine it's good to do some changes to the settings used to make you more comfortable in using it later. Some settings require the virtual machine in a non-active, some can only be done in the Guest OS Safe Mode. Thus, to present first shutdown the Guest OS you.

SETTING UP PROCCESS

This time will discuss about some important settings of your order the more comfortable in using your virtual machine. Make sure your virtual machine is turned off (powered off), then double-click to turn on and be prepared to press F8 as we will go into Safe Mode.

Choose Safe Mode, then Enter twice.
After entering Safe Mode, click Yes to close the window notification.
In the VirtualBox menu, select Devices -> Install Guest Additions.
It would appear the Windows Explorer . Double-click VBoxWindowsAdditions.
You will be greeted by the VirtualBox Guest Additions Setup Wizard. Click Next> to continue.
Select the installation location and click Next>.
If you plan to run an application in the Guest OS that require Direct3D (games for example), then make sure the Direct3D Support selected. If you already click Install.
Guest Additions installation process was completed. Click OK.
Click Finish to restart and get into WinXP as normal.
Next we'll create a Shared Folders. Usefulness is as a place to exchange (transfer) files between Guest and Host. The trick is to select Devices -> Shared Folders.
Click the Add button on the right side of the window.
In the Folder Path, select Other.
Specify the folder where you want shared.
Then select Auto-mount that folder directly at-shared automatically at startup.
Rekapnya be seen here. You also can create more than one Shared Folders if you wish. Click OK to finish.
Shared Folders will only begin to be used if you have to restart. But for now the Guest OS shutdown before you because we will make changes in the last settings via VirtualBox Manager.
Click Settings on the menu VirtualBox Manager.
Select the System tab on the left. Well here you can make settings memory (RAM) and also the Boot Order. In order for fast booting, select Hard Disk as the Boot Order first priority.
Select the Display tab and you can change the amount of Video Memory (VGA Card) and also activate the Enable 3D Acceleration feature. Click OK if it is.
Next run the virtual machine again. After entering Windows, try running Explorer. It appears that the Shared Folders now can be accessed.
Applications that can not be opened in Win7 are now able to run.

an explanation of the technical steps to create a virtual machine and its installation with the Guest OS using VirtualBox. In this way, we seemed to have a "new computer" is ready to run. In the world of IT, many benefits to be gained by using this VirtualBox. A Java programmer who want to create a multi-platform applications, can use VirtualBox to test programs in various OS (Windows, Mac, Linux, FreeBSD, etc.).

Or someone who is studying to be a hacker, usually also will create a virtual machine to test the efficacy of scripts or artificial virus, without having to worry about major OS that is being used also infected. You can also experiment with VirtualBox it suits your needs.

10 Best Tools Windows 7

2011-05-08T23:01:00.004+07:00

Windows 7 not only attracted much attention from the press as a high-tech, but also there are many new interface changes, such as the redesigned taskbar, new file management features, libraries and others. Several tools have been enhanced which is then included with the OS. Here we discuss 10 of the best tools windows 7 which makes the job easier computing.

1. Action Center
Centralized management is hot in Windows 7 and gives you one-stop shopping site where you can take care of security, troubleshooting, and recovery, rather than searching for an applet for each part. Everything is combined in an easy to use Control Panel, where you get a maintenance and safety messages and can view performance information, change the UAC settings, and more.

This is a development from the Security Center in Windows Vista. It makes sense to combine the security settings, system maintenance, and recovery. Action Center has emerged as an icon in the system tray, which displays a red X symbol if there is a problem that needs you are looking for.

2. Problem Steps Recorder
One of the coolest new tool in Windows 7 is the Problem Steps Recorder (PSR), mainly to provide technical support to users of Windows. No matter how hard they try, but users often have problems to accurately describe their problem and steps they take before or after the experience. Sure, Remote Assistance can be a blessing in this situation. But we can not always connect to a user's computer in real time. That's when PSR come in handy.

Problem Steps Recorder is a type of software that records all actions keystrokes, mouse clicks, including screenshots etc. and save the sequence of events in an MHTML document pages. You can start by entering psr.exe PSR in the Start Search box via the command prompt option.

3. ISO burner
ISO image file is a file type that is often used to distribute software. In Windows 7, Microsoft included this as an answer to many users wish list for a long time. Now you do not need to download and install a third-party program to burn ISO files to disk. Suppose you want to create a bootable CD use this tool. This is a simple process: Once you've downloaded. ISO to your hard drive, simply double click and Windows 7 will open the Burn Disc Image dialog box to burn the disc.

4. Biometric device management
In previous Windows versions, biometric authentication and management of biometric devices (fingerprint sensor) required third party software that may or may not be well integrated with the OS. Now in Windows 7 already built in. Windows Biometric Framework, which gives developers the API that you can use to build biometrics into applications. Fingerprint sensor hardware makers, such as UPEK and AuthenTec, in cooperation with Microsoft on developing its framework. Biometric can be accessed through the Control Panel.

5. Credential Manager
Credential Manager is a new feature in Windows 7. This tool is similar in some ways premises password management features in Vista User Account but this is more sophisticated. You can manage the Windows credentials for the various computers that you are signed onto, certificate-based credentials, and others (for e-mail accounts, web accounts, etc.). This is all saved by default in Windows Vault.

Perhaps the best feature new in Credential Manager is the ability to backup anhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifd restore Vault. Microsoft recommends that you keep backing up on removable drives, such as flash drives, to back up if you experience a hardware failure. For more information, see Windows 7: Windows 7: Exploring Credential Vault Manager and Windows directly from the website.

6. Projection display and the Windows Mobility Center
If you give many presentations, you will be greeted by a new tool in Windows 7 that makes it easy for you to display projectors in the desktop Windows 7. Just press the Windows logo key + P and you will see a pop-up box where you can make the choice of presentation. The first is the default settings and displayed on computer screens only. The second clone display settings on the computer screen to the projector. A third setting to extend the desktop on both computer screen and projector, and the fourth displays only the settings through the projector and turn off the computer screen.

7. Text tuning and color calibration
Your computer might not work, but your screen is what you see throughout the day. If it does not look good, you do not get the most from your computing experience, and can even cause you eye strain. In Windows 7 there are two tools to customize the look to suit your preferences. You can access the ClearType Text Tuner from Control Panel or from the command (cttune.exe). If you have multiple monitors, you can adjust according to each monitor.

This tuning tool works much like the eye chart at the optometrist's office, and please you choose one that looks best for you. In addition to text tuner, Windows 7 provides color calibration tool. It can be accessed from the Control Panel or from the command line (dccw.exe). It helps you to adjust gamma, brightness, contrast, and color rendition on your monitor to display the best.

8. Disc Repair System
Actually, the Vista Service Pack 1 Beta already lets you easily create disc repair system with friendly graphical interface, but has been removed and re-released in the final in SP1. Windows 7 to improve this function. Just click [Start] and type [System Repair] in the Search box. Click [Create A System Repair Disc] to open the dialog box. To use the disc, please mesukkan in the drive and reboot the computer from the disk. (You may need to set the CD / DVD drive as primary boot device in BIOS) Then you will get a list of system recovery options, which include:

- Startup Repair
- System restore
- System image recovery
- Windows Memory Diagnostic
- Command prompt

9. Better backup utility
In previous Windows versions already include a backup utility, but this tool has been perfect significantly in Windows 7. Vista backup program is user friendly but not very flexible. Windows 7 provides more detailed control over what you want to backup. You can run the Backup And Restore from Control Panel or by typing a backup in the Search box on the Start menu. You can back up files to local hard disk, removable disk, DVD, or another computer on the network (origin diisinkan on the network). Then you can also choose to create a backup folder or individual libraries. You can also exclude certain folders when backing up.

10. PowerShell v2
Windows PowerShell (Figure P) is a shell command-line interface and scripting tools that make it easier for Windows administrators to automate tasks using cmdlets, which are commands that perform a single command, and scripts, which consists of several cmdlets for complex tasks , multi-step tasks. Earlier versions of Windows includes a command-line interpreter (command.com or cmd.exe), but PowerShell is much more powerful, also provided the UNIX environment, this command can automate nearly every function of the GUI.

PowerShell can be downloaded and run on Windows XP or Vista, but in Windows 7 is included in a built-in. PowerShell v2 adds about 240 new cmdlets, as well as APIs and new features, such as the ability to call the PowerShell scripts and cmdlets on remote computer. You can find out more about PowerShell on Microsoft's website.

New Feature in technology HDMI V.1.4

2011-04-10T15:59:00.007+07:00

Technology HDMI 1.4 cables now could make you transfer Internet data in the same cable when currently transfers only video and audio data. with this solves problems for people who have an awful time connecting devices to the web and each other in the living room. I use powerline Internet adapters, which connect my DSL broadband line to my living room via power sockets. Wireless doesn’t work so well in my home. So right now, you have to switch cables from one game console to another whenever you use them. It’s a hassle.

HDMI connects devices such as Blu-ray player to a TV set with no loss in the high-definition video quality. All new TVs have the HDMI connectors, as do many other video appliances. HDMI is keeping up with the times. About 24 percent of all consumer electronics devices will require Ethernet in 2009. With more devices connected to the Internet, this new connector means that you will be able to access your content via the Internet on more of your future home devices. The Ethernet connection enables a variety of new applications, such as the ability to play a video on a Blu-ray player on any web-connected TV in your home.

Audio Return Channel so you can connect your stereo to your TV and have it play music on your TV set, even as you get rid of a cable. And HDMI 1.4 has Automatic Content Enhancement, which optimizes the settings on your TV to fit whatever movie or video you’re playing. It also has 3-D support and support for higher resolution video of 4,000 x 2,000 pixels. And another new feature is a complete color palette that allows you to connect almost any HD digital still camera and show the pictures with the highest viewing quality on your TV. Sometimes TVs don’t have the breadth of color to display still pictures well.

one more another feature is the Micro HDMI connector. This connector is about the size of a mini universal serial bus (USB) connector. It can likely be built into cell phones in the future to let you play back high-definition video recorded with a cell phone camera on a TV. I recently saw a demonstration of that at Broadcom’s offices in Sunnyvale, Calif. It looked pretty cool.

Windows Installer 5 on Microsoft Windows 7

2011-03-10T05:56:00.002+07:00

Windows Installer 5.0 is available for both Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. With Windows Installer 5.0, setup developers can use Windows Installer 5.0 to author a single installation package capable of either per-machine installation or per-user installation of the application.Beginning with Windows Installer 5.0, a package can be authored to secure new accounts, Windows Services, files, folders, and registry keys. The package can specify a security descriptor that denies permissions, specifies inheritance of permissions from a parent resource, or specifies the permissions of a new account. For information, see Securing Resources. The Windows Installer 5.0 service can enumerate all components installed on the computer and obtain the key path for the component.

Windows Installer 5.0 has been released with, and require Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7. Versions earlier than Windows Installer 5.0 were released with Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000.

Ramnit Virus Manual remove fixed

2011-03-09T06:03:00.004+07:00

W32.Ramnit is a worm that infects .exe, .dll and .html files to reproduce and infect other systems. After infection, W32.Ramnit will hijack your browser to redirect you to a malicious domain. W32.Ramnit may also make contact with an anonymous third party through Internet Explorer exploits, allowing the remote attacker to violate your privacy and exert control over your computer. Many anti-malware programs have been unable to detect W32.Ramnit in some instances; severe infections can necessitate a complete system wipe to remedy the situation. Be cautious about worms like W32.Ramnit when on large networks or using removable media, and strive to delete W32.Ramnit quickly before it becomes too difficult to remove.

first things W32.Ramnit does is infect any .exe, .dll, or .html files W32.Ramnit can find. If you open these infected files, congratulations - now you've got W32.Ramnit, too! W32.Ramnit may also create concealed Autorun.inf files that are placed on various drives, including removable ones. Any computer that then accesses these drives will also get the W32.Ramnit worm.

Different versions of W32.Ramnit have been identified as a threat since January of 2010, and the worm is far from exterminated yet. Fortunately, indicators of W32.Ramnit's presence are sufficiently plain that you ought to see W32.Ramnit before it's been on your system too long. Deleting W32.Ramnit with sufficient quickness can mean the difference between your computer surviving without damage and your computer needing a complete hard drive wipe.

W32.Ramnit may also be detected under the slight variant names of W32.Ramnit.A and W32.Ramnit.B.

Backup Reminder: Always be sure to back up your PC before making any changes.

To remove W32.Ramnit, you must first stop any W32.Ramnit processes that are running in your computer'ds memory. To stop all W32.Ramnit processes, press CTRL+ALT+DELETE to open the Windows Task Manager. Click on the "Processes" tab, search for W32.Ramnit, then right-click it and select "End Process" key.

To delete W32.Ramnit registry keys, open the Windows Registry Editor by clicking on the Windows "Start" button and selecting "Run." Type "regedit" into the box and click "OK." Once the Registry Editor is open, search for the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\W32.Ramnit." Right-click this registry key and select "Delete."

Finally, to completely get rid of W32.Ramnit, you must manually remove other W32.Ramnit files. These W32.Ramnit files can be in the form of EXE, DLL, LSP, TOOLBAR, BROWSER HIJACK, and/or BROWSER PLUGIN. For example, W32.Ramnit might create a file like
%PROGRAM_FILES%\W32.Ramnit\W32.Ramnit.exe. Locate and remove these files.

Motherboard won't Booting fixed method

2011-02-25T18:13:00.004+07:00

Motherboard won't work properly problem is most likely a software one and NOT a hardware problem. You should, of course, check that all the cooling fans are working (especially the ones on the processor and the video card) in case overheating is a problem. If you have two or more sticks of RAM which are from different manufacturers you could try using them one at a time in case a RAM mismatch is causing the problem. But other than that the only real way to see if it's a software or a hardware problem is to try running it with a fresh, clean installation of Windows.

Extra storage space is always worth having and they're quite inexpensive. Swap your current drive out, put the new one in, and load Windows onto it. If all runs fine you know for certain that the problem is in your original Windows installation. If not you've got a second hard drive to use once you track down the hardware problem and fix it!

if the machine won't start afterwards you've got clues to where the problem lies. Remove the recently added device or component and try again. If it still won't start have a good look inside to ensure you haven't dislodged or damaged some other component while you were working in there. Make sure everything is firmly in place.

When you make changes to the hardware of a PC you need to physically reset the CMOS memory, either by 'shorting' a jumper on the mainboard or by removing the CMOS battery and waiting several minutes at least before replacing it. A vast number of instances where machines won't start up are simply the result of changes made without resetting CMOS afterwards.

Modern ATX motherboards still have power running through them after Windows has been shut down! You must either switch off at the wall outlet or remove the power cord before opening it up to perform internal work. Damage to components can ensue if you make hardware changes when the motherboard is still receiving power.

Even without a hard drive fitted, your machine should run the Power On Self Test. If it doesn't, then it is either incorrectly assembled or it contains a faulty component. You should be getting the memory check, the device detection information, and perhaps an 'Operating System not found" message.

although PCs are quite easy to assemble, putting the whole thing together before trying it to see if it works is far from the ideal approach. If the entire PC is fully assembled, tracking down the reason for the failure can become a nightmare. The 'bare bones' approach is far better when assembling, and far better when troubleshooting. If your system is already fully assembled, go back several steps and try again.

The 'bare bones' PC contains only the following components:

- Motherboard
- Processor
- Processor heatsink/fan unit, connected to power
- A video card if there is no onboard video available
- One RAM module (unless the RAM is of a type which requires installing in pairs. 'Dual channel' RAM is NOT such a type!)
- The front panel connectors for Power Switch, Power LED and case speaker attached to the motherboard
- The ATX connector connected and supplying power to the motherboard. - The P4 power connector attached also if required. A molex connector attached to the display card if required.

That's it. Attach monitor and keyboard and see if it'll POST. Reset CMOS and try again if it doesn't. If you are building a new system stop at this point and try it out. If you're troubleshooting a fully assembled PC strip it back to this point and try!

If the PC won't POST in this configuration you need to determine why before proceeding:

*check power switch and LED connectors. If they are reversed the system won't start
* check that the processor is correctly fitted
* try a different RAM module
* ensure that the display card is correcxtly seated.
* get a technician to check it over if you can't locate the cause

Once the 'bare bones' system is operational, add other components one by one. Try starting the machine after every addition to check that it will still POST. This is the ONLY procedure by which you can adequately and effectively troubleshoot where a hardware problem lies.
'Other components' includes additional RAM modules, add in cards, drives, etc.
If your are troubleshooting a system which has already had Windows installed to a hard drive, add that drive last so that the system doesn't continually try to boot into Windows.
If you strike problems and need to post a new thread about your problem, include the following information:

* Identification details (make and model) of all components
* Full details of any onscreen error messages
* Full description of any BIOS 'beep' codes emitted through the internal speaker.

Microsoft Surface : the new Generation of multi touch Computer

2010-11-18T12:43:00.002+07:00

Microsoft Surface is more than a computer. It’s a leap ahead in digital interaction. By enabling you to use your hands instead of a keyboard and mouse, it revolutionizes the way you interact with digital content, while keeping the ability to connect with other devices such as networks, printers, mobile devices, card readers, and more. Our Microsoft Surface Partners have created hundreds of applications for the platform.

Microsoft Surface is currently based on the Windows Vista platform, which makes it especially easy for companies to manage, deploy and support Microsoft Surface units. The current version for the software platform is Microsoft Surface 1.0 Service Pack 1, which enhances Surface with an enhanced user interface, improved manageability to help reduce the cost of ownership, broader international support, and faster, easier ways to design innovative applications. Read more about Service Pack 1 on the Microsoft Surface Blog.

The sophisticated camera system of Surface sees what is touching it and recognizes fingers, hands, paintbrushes, tagged objects and a myriad of other real-world items. It allows you to grab digital information and interact with the content through touch and gesture. And unlike other touch-screens, Surface recognizes many points of contact simultaneously, 52 to be exact. This allows multiple people to use Surface at the same time, creating a more engaging and collaborative computing experience than what is available via traditional personal computers, mobile devices, or public kiosks.

Tagged object recognition is a particularly innovative feature of Microsoft Surface. The tag is what lets Surface uniquely identify objects, helping the system tell the difference between two identical looking bottles of juice, for example. Applications can also use a tag to start a command or action, so simply placing a tagged object on the screen can open up a whole new experience. A tagged object might also identify a cardholder, so they can charge purchases or participate in a loyalty program. A tag can even tell Surface to display unique information about a tagged object, such as showing more information about a bottle of wine, the wine grower, the type of grape and vintage.

a Microsoft Surface unit is a PC that is running the Windows Vista Business operating system, so in some ways, a Surface unit is like a desktop computer or a server. The units include all of the standard manageability features that are available in Windows Vista to enable easy deployment and administration, including Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), Remote Desktop Connection, Windows Scripting Host, Event Viewer, Performance Monitor, Event Forwarding, Task Scheduler, and so on. You can also use enterprise management tools like the Microsoft System Center family of products to deploy software, maintain patches, manage configuration, and monitor health.

You can also deploy Microsoft Surface units to remote locations away from the immediate reach of an IT administrator and then use remote management tools and scripting to accomplish administration tasks, such as taking a unit offline, installing applications, monitoring the unit, managing updates, and recovering the system.
Microsoft Surface represents a fundamental change in the way we interact with digital content. Leave the mouse and keyboard behind. Surface lets you grab digital content with your hands and move information with simple gestures and touches. Surface also sees and interacts with objects placed on the screen, allowing you to move information between devices like mobile phones or cameras. The result is a fun, social and exciting computing experience like you’ve never had before.

Microsoft Surface has four key capabilities that make it such a unique experience:

* Direct interaction. Users can grab digital information with their hands and interact with content on-screen by touch and gesture – without using a mouse or keyboard.
* Multi-user experience. The large, horizontal, 30 inch display makes it easy for several people to gather and interact together with Microsoft Surface - providing a collaborative, face-to-face computing experience.
* Multi-touch. Microsoft Surface responds to many points of contact simultaneously - not just from one finger, as with a typical touch screen, but from dozens of contact points at once.
* Object recognition. Users can place physical objects on the screen to trigger different types of digital responses – providing for a multitude of applications and the transfer of digital content to mobile devices.

Microsoft Surface uses cameras and image recognition in the infrared spectrum to recognize different types of objects such as fingers, tagged items and shapes. This input is then processed by the computer and the resulting interaction is displayed using rear projection. The user can manipulate content and interact with the computer using natural touch and hand gestures, instead of a typical mouse and keyboard.

Enable Internet Connection Firewall using VBScript

2010-11-16T12:41:00.003+07:00

Windows Firewall helps to protect computers from unsolicited network traffic. The Windows Firewall APIs make it possible to programmatically manage the features of Windows Firewall by allowing applications to create, enable, and disable firewall exceptions.
Windows Firewall API is intended for situations in which a software application or setup program must operate with adjustments to the configuration of the networking environment in which it runs. For example, a service that needs to receive unsolicited traffic can use this API to create exceptions that allow the unsolicited traffic.
Windows Firewall API is designed for use by programmers using C/C++, Microsoft Visual Basic development system, Visual Basic Scripting Edition, and JScript development software. Programmers should be familiar with networking concepts such as stateful packet filtering, TCP/IP protocol concepts, and network address translation (NAT).
Windows Firewall API is supported on Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2). For more specific information about which operating systems support a particular programming element, refer to the Requirements sections in the documentation.

[Internet Connection Firewall may be altered or unavailable in subsequent versions. Instead, use the Windows Firewall API.
The following VBScript code first determines if Internet Connection Sharing and Internet Connection Firewall are available on the local computer. If so, the code enumerates the connections on the local computer, and enables Internet Connection Firewall on the connection that is specified as a command line argument.

Wait some time to get it initialized , ignore any error message if it appears if it is not blocking,It will also get the Internet connection automatically so you do not need to do anything to surf Internet in emulator. Now you are ready to start you application on emulator !

VoIP System Standart Features

2010-11-10T10:12:00.002+07:00

Voice over IP (VoIP) systems today are gaining in popularity today for several reasons, most notable are the availability of so many open source and commercial options, the high degree of available interface devices that allow you to connect to existing circuit based networks and hardware, and the ability to create full end to end IP based solutions using available high-speed links or gateways with commercial trunk providers. However, it is still easy to make a poor purchasing decision unless you take a good look at the basic requirements of what a communication system needs to provide to be effective in your business and help you achieve your cost savings while still maintaining your ability to be connected to your clients and vendors in an effective manner. My intent here is to help outline the 5 standard features that your VoIP system should have for it to be considered the proper solution for your enterprise.

Examination

Standardization and Flexibility

Just like Henry Ford grew the automobile business based upon the obvious concept of standardization, the VoIP industry gained its recent focus and popularity based upon the same ideals. Gone are the days of having to select and architect a solution based upon the supported protocols of one vendor and become locked in. The two major signaling protocols you will see today, H.323 and SIP are the largest players, with H.323 starting to lag behind as SIP gains in popularity and support, more compliant vendors, and continued enhanced to support more media streams and tighter device integration that up until recently has been what was keeping H.323 ahead in the game. Keeping in mind that H.323 is still the more mature technology, currently it is holding its ground in the carrier space and is used quite extensively as a trunk side protocol. This has allowed SIP to comfortably gain foothold in the enterprise space as a local carrier style protocol that is simpler to implement, troubleshoot, and extend with new features as needed. It is clear that for a system to be considered future proof it has to support the currently prevalent standards but also allow ‘plug ability’ and offer support for emerging standards, or alterations to the existing standards as well.

Integration Options

Unless you are starting from scratch you are most likely attempting to integrate a VoIP option into your existing infrastructure as part of a phased deployment strategy. The current list of options to accomplish this is growing longer and longer every day, and that has many benefits for the consumer with regards to architecture, cost, interoperability options, and the quicker movement to tighter standards compliance between vendors. There is no longer a need to consider the move to VoIP to be an all or nothing deal with the introduction of gateway devices that allow you to leverage your current investment in older TDM based equipment and enhance it with the newer IP based messaging solutions. Doing this allows you to add new devices to the newer IP network while maintaining a rich level of integration with the legacy TDM equipment until it lives out its natural (and still depreciable) life span.

Security

As with everything today, security is a huge consideration when you start to think about moving to VoIP. If it is not something that you have already though about, or your vendor has not discussed it deeply with you then I urge you to stop reading this right now, go to your vendor and ASK how secure your current VoIP implementation (or the one you are planning to install) is.

Security is so critical in today’s business market, but because people have felt so safe in the past using TDM voice infrastructures where ‘tapping’ meant actually making a physical connection to the ‘wires’, the thought of security quite often eludes people when you starting the talk about VoIP. It is so easy to fire up a copy of Wireshark on your network, collect some packets, and use the tools built right into the GUI to listen to VoIP conversations. So, what do you do? The answer is simple. You turn on encryption and ensure that every device you use within in your IP infrastructure involved in the call supports the encryption scheme that you pick. Keep in mind that while encryption is good, it does add CPU load to your devices, can cause higher network utilization because the packets can get larger, and can add complexity to any troubleshooting efforts, but you should NOT implement any VoIP system without taking security into consideration. One fine option that I have used is to consider your internal network to be secure and just encrypt the calls that pass via IP between external parties (over your IP based trunks if you use them) or between all your company locations using the public IP network. It’s my feeling that as long as you keep your internal IP infrastructure secure (IE: tight controls on who can enter your IT area, and you are using switches rather than hubs), bothering to encrypt internal IP connections is not always needed because in a properly configured environment you will not be able to capture VoIP data other than what is directed to you. If you are using hubs then all bets are off of course. That is a subject for another article.

Support

As with most other technologies, part of your purchasing and deployment planning MUST be to take the support model into consideration. Don’t just assume that your existing vendor that supports your current internet connection to the external world is going to be there if you have IP trunk problems, understand what terminology like QoS, jitter, and other VoIP lingo means, or even how to correct them if problems occur. As when introducing any new technology you need to have a sit-down with everyone involved in the proposed value chain and establish an understanding of expectations, possible support needs, costs, and schedules. You may find out that your provider is by default blocking the native ports that the typical VoIP protocols require simply because they are not used to requiring them to be open for other clients. If you are ready to move to IP for your voice communications just understand that while you may have been willing to put up with slowness in the afternoons when you tried to use the web to order your dinner so you could pick it up on the way home, a slow data connection can wreak havoc with voice quality and the ability to establish a call. You may need to consider a separate IP connection just dedicated to voice, and in fact you may need to start considering redundant connections using two different providers for your voice if you have not already done so for your data. Additionally, ensure that your vendor has the proper debugging tools in place, knows how to use them, and is willing to offer training to your staff, or that you are willing to use third parties to get them trained, so that they can be used to keep the system running in top condition. Remember that voice communication is still considered a top priority in today’s business world and loosing that, even for a few hours, can make a customer start looking for someone to replace you as a vendor.

Extension Points

Many people today are used to just using the phone to talk, or maybe send faxes, but once the move to IP is made the benefits will start to bring on questions about other methods of application integration, and additional ways to leverage the new communications system. One thing that you should always consider on any new system, not just VoIP, are ways that you can utilize it going forward for things other than just your current needs. A car would not be much use if you could only drive it back and forth to work would it? The same goes for your telephony solution. Right from the start you should consider investigating the extension areas of all the solutions you look at and at least gain an understanding of the features and benefits that each system may or may not offer. For example, it could be very disappointing to get a system all in place and six months latter determine that you still need to add a bank of analog trunk lines to and receive faxes because your solution did not include the ability for Fax over IP (FoIP) codecs. Making blanket assumptions like ‘just because traditional faxes use our existing voice lines the VoIP system should also do fax’ can lead to some very tense moments across a boardroom table. Also consider integration with other areas like Instant Messaging (IM) and application integration such as the ability to build basic Interactive Voice Response (IVR) menus (IE: ‘To talk to support, please press 1, to talk to sales, please press 2,…) into the system and create simple auto attendant applications. These simple features can help add some great value that may not have been considered previously, and allow you to recoup the costs of a VoIP implementation over a shorter timeline than previously anticipated. Areas like this can allow you to bring systems together under one area and thus cut down the size of your external vendor list.
Conclusion

As you can see, the move to VoIP is fraught with decisions, technical considerations, and even some simple human capital management opportunities, but the gains in productivity, efficiency, and the ability to leverage existing infrastructure and gain some valuable benefits in the areas of long term manageability, application integration, multi-modal communications options and simpler to manage infrastructure far outweigh the potential problems as long as the map forward is well thought out and planned. As with most IT based business decisions it is always good to ensure that everyone understands the possible features and benefits as well as the potential risks and how they can be mitigated to derive the value that is expected.

Disclosures and References

As part of my previous experience in VoIP technology I spent 10 years as a product and training specialist working for both Intel Corporation and Dialogic Corporation in the area of Digital PBX TDM to IP interfacing with regards to the Netstructure PBX/IP Media gateway product line. In addition, my secondary focus was working closely with vendors offering tightly integrated VoIP solutions such as Microsoft Exchnage Unified Messaging and IBM Lotus Sametime using these devices as well as the design and development of product training classes, certification programs for user and administrative positions, and product documentation collateral.

Increase Visitor Traffic for your website

2010-11-08T12:48:00.004+07:00

Increase website traffic is one of the most important point to grow up your site.If you have a website—especially one you want to monetize—this is undoubtedly a question you’ve asked yourself. Often, the single biggest impact on the level of web traffic your site gets is its search engine page ranking or SERP. Major search engines like Yahoo!, Google, Ask, and MSN, however, choose to add some intrigue to the pursuit of rising up the search engine results page (SERP) ladder by keeping the majority of their metrics a secret. The resulting effect leaves the webmaster and search community with the daunting task of sifting through rumors and experience to shorten the slog through massive amounts of trial and error needed to figure out what really works.

But fear not good people of the internet! There is hope on the horizon yet. Lucky for all of us there are more people with great ideas and ambition trying to solve the riddles than there are riddle masters holding us back. Thanks to these internet superheroes much of the mystery that shrouds effective search engine marketing has been lifted, and what we are left with is a much clearer picture of what works and what does not.

Choose the Right Blog Software, The right blog CMS makes a big difference. If you want to set yourself apart, I recommend creating a custom blog solution - one that can be completely customized to your users. In most cases, WordPress, Blogger, MovableType or Typepad will suffice, but building from scratch allows you to be very creative with functionality and formatting. The best CMS is something that's easy for the writer(s) to use and brings together the features that allow the blog to flourish. Think about how you want comments, archiving, sub-pages, categorization, multiple feeds and user accounts to operate in order to narrow down your choices. OpenSourceCMS is a very good tool to help you select a software if you go that route.

Host Your Blog Directly on Your Domain, Hosting your blog on a different domain from your primary site is one of the worst mistakes you can make. A blog on your domain can attract links, attention, publicity, trust and search rankings - by keeping the blog on a separate domain, you shoot yourself in the foot. From worst to best, your options are - Hosted (on a solution like Blogspot or Wordpress), on a unique domain (at least you can 301 it in the future), on a subdomain (these can be treated as unique from the primary domain by the engines) and as a sub-section of the primary domain (in a subfolder or page - this is the best solution).

Write Title Tags with Two Audiences in Mind, First and foremost, you're writing a title tag for the people who will visit your site or have a subscription to your feed. Title tags that are short, snappy, on-topic and catchy are imperative. You also want to think about search engines when you title your posts, since the engines can help to drive traffic to your blog. A great way to do this is to write the post and the title first, then run a few searches at Overture, WordTracker & KeywordDiscovery to see if there is a phrasing or ordering that can better help you to target "searched for" terms.

Participate at Related Forums & Blogs, Whatever industry or niche you're in, there are bloggers, forums and an online community that's already active. Depending on the specificity of your focus, you may need to think one or two levels broader than your own content to find a large community, but with the size of the participatory web today, even the highly specialized content areas receive attention. A great way to find out who these people are is to use Technorati to conduct searches, then sort by number of links (authority). Del.icio.us tags are also very useful in this process, as are straight searches at the engines (Ask.com's blog search in particular is of very good quality).

Tag Your Content, Technorati is the first place that you should be tagging posts. I actually recommend having the tags right on your page, pointing to the Technorati searches that you're targeting. There are other good places to ping - del.icio.us and Flickr being the two most obvious (the only other one is Blogmarks, which is much smaller). Tagging content can also be valuable to help give you a "bump" towards getting traffic from big sites like Reddit, Digg & StumbleUpon (which requires that you download the toolbar, but trust me - it's worth it). You DO NOT want to submit every post to these sites, but that one out of twenty (see tactic #18) is worth your while.

Launch Without Comments, There's something sad about a blog with 0 comments on every post. It feels dead, empty and unpopular. Luckily, there's an easy solution - don't offer the ability to post comments on the blog and no one will know that you only get 20 uniques a day. Once you're upwards of 100 RSS subscribers and/or 750 unique visitors per day, you can open up the comments and see light activity. Comments are often how tech-savvy new visitors judge the popularity of a site (and thus, its worth), so play to your strengths and keep your obscurity private.

Don't Jump on the Bandwagon, Some memes are worthy of being talked about by every blogger in the space, but most aren't. Just because there's huge news in your industry or niche DOES NOT mean you need to be covering it, or even mentioning it (though it can be valuable to link to it as an aside, just to integrate a shared experience into your unique content). Many of the best blogs online DO talk about the big trends - this is because they're already popular, established and are counted on to be a source of news for the community. If you're launching a new blog, you need to show people in your space that you can offer something unique, different and valuable - not just the same story from your point of view. This is less important in spaces where there are very few bloggers and little online coverage and much more in spaces that are overwhelmed with blogs (like search, or anything else tech-related).

Link Intelligently, When you link out in your blog posts, use convention where applicable and creativity when warranted, but be aware of how the links you serve are part of the content you provide. Not every issue you discuss or site you mention needs a link, but there's a fine line between overlinking and underlinking. The best advice I can give is to think of the post from the standpoint of a relatively uninformed reader. If you mention Wikipedia, everyone is familiar and no link is required. If you mention a specific page at Wikipedia, a link is necessary and important. Also, be aware that quoting other bloggers or online sources (or even discussing their ideas) without linking to them is considered bad etiquette and can earn you scorn that could cost you links from those sources in the future. It's almost always better to be over-generous with links than under-generous. And link condoms? Only use them when you're linking to something you find truly distasteful or have serious apprehension about.

Invite Guest Bloggers, Asking a well known personality in your niche to contribute a short blog on their subject of expertise is a great way to grow the value and reach of your blog. You not only flatter the person by acknowledging their celebrity, you nearly guarantee yourself a link or at least an association with a brand that can earn you readers. Just be sure that you really are getting a quality post from someone that's as close to universally popular and admired as possible (unless you want to start playing the drama linkbait game, which I personally abhor). If you're already somewhat popular, it can often be valuable to look outside your space and bring in guest authors who have a very unique angle or subject matter to help spice up your focus. One note about guest bloggers - make sure they agree to have their work edited by you before it's posted. A disagreement on this subject after the fact can have negative ramifications.

Eschew Advertising, Usually, I ignore adsense, but I also cast a sharp eye towards the quality of the posts and professionalism of the content when I see AdSense. That's not to say that contextual advertising can't work well in some blogs, but it needs to be well integrated into the design and layout to help defer criticism. Don't get me wrong - it's unfair to judge a blog by its cover (or, in this case, its ads), but spend a lot of time surfing blogs and you'll have the same impression - low quality blogs run AdSense and many high quality ones don't. I always recommend that whether personal or professional, you wait until your blog has achieved a level of success before you start advertising. Ads, whether they're sponsorships, banners, contextual or other, tend to have a direct, negative impact on the number of readers who subscribe, add to favorites and link - you definitely don't want that limitation while you're still trying to get established.

Go Beyond Text in Your Posts, Blogs that contain nothing but line after line of text are more difficult to read and less consistently interesting than those that offer images, interactive elements, the occasional multimedia content and some clever charts & graphs. Even if you're having a tough time with non-text content, think about how you can format the text using blockquotes, indentation, bullet points, etc. to create a more visually appealing and digestible block of content.

Cover Topics that Need Attention, In every niche, there are certain topics and questions that are frequently asked or pondered, but rarely have definitive answers. While this recommendation applies to nearly every content-based site, it's particularly easy to leverage with a blog. If everyone in the online Nascar forums is wondering about the components and cost of an average Nascar vehicle - give it to them. If the online stock trading industry is rife with questions about the best performing stocks after a terrorist threat, your path is clear. Spend the time and effort to research, document and deliver and you're virtually guaranteed link-worthy content that will attract new visitors and subscribers.

Pay Attention to Your Analytics, Visitor tracking software can tell you which posts your audience likes best, which ones don't get viewed and how the search engines are delivering traffic. Use these clues to react and improve your strategies. Feedburner is great for RSS and I'm a personal fan of Indextools. Consider adding action tracking to your blog, so you can see what sources of traffic are bringing the best quality visitors (in terms of time spent on the site, # of page views, etc). I particularly like having the "register" link tagged for analytics so I can see what percentage of visitors from each source is interested enough to want to leave a comment or create an account.

Use a Human Voice, Charisma is a valuable quality, both online and off. Through a blog, it's most often judged by the voice you present to your users. People like empathy, compassion, authority and honesty. Keep these in the forefront of your mind when writing and you'll be in a good position to succeed. It's also critical that you maintain a level of humility in your blogging and stick to your roots. When users start to feel that a blog is taking itself too seriously or losing the characteristics that made it unique, they start to seek new places for content. We've certainly made mistakes (even recently) that have cost us some fans - be cautious to control not only what you say, but how you say it. Lastly - if there's a hot button issue that has you posting emotionally, temper it by letting the post sit in draft mode for an hour or two, re-reading it and considering any revisions. With the advent of feeds, once you publish, there's no going back.

Archive Effectively, The best archives are carefully organized into subjects and date ranges. For search traffic (particularly long tail terms), it can be best to offer the full content of every post in a category on the archive pages, but from a usability standpoint, just linking to each post is far better (possibly with a very short snippet). Balance these two issues and make the decision based on your goals. A last note on archiving - pagination in blogging can be harmful to search traffic, rather than beneficial (as you provide constantly changing, duplicate content pages). Pagination is great for users who scroll to the bottom and want to see more, though, so consider putting a "noindex" in the meta tag or in the robots.txt file to keep spiders where they belong - in the well-organized archive system.

Implement Smart URLs, The best URL structure for blogs is, in my opinion, as short as possible while still containing enough information to make an educated guess about the content you'll find on the page. I don't like the 10 hyphen, lengthy blog titles that are the byproduct of many CMS plugins, but they are certainly better than any dynamic parameters in the URL. Yes - I know I'm not walking the talk here, and hopefully it's something we can fix in the near future. To those who say that one dynamic parameter in the URL doesn't hurt, I'd take issue - just re-writing a ?ID=450 to /450 has improved search traffic considerably on several blogs we've worked with.

Reveal as Much as Possible, The blogosphere is in love with the idea of an open source world on the web. Sharing vast stores of what might ordinarily be considered private information is the rule, rather than the exception. If you can offer content that's usually private - trade secrets, pricing, contract issues, and even the occasional harmless rumor, your blog can benefit. Make a decision about what's off-limits and how far you can go and then push right up to that limit in order to see the best possible effects. Your community will reward you with links and traffic.

Only One Post in Twenty Can Be Linkbait, Not every post is worthy of making it to the top of Digg, Del.icio.us/popular or even a mention at some other blogs in your space. Trying to over-market every post you write will result in pushback and ultimately lead to negative opinions about your efforts. The less popular your blog is, the harder it will be to build excitement around a post, but the process of linkbait has always been trial and error - build, test, refine and re-build. Keep creating great ideas and bolstering them with lots of solid, everyday content and you'll eventually be big enough to where one out of every 20-40 posts really does become linkbait.

Make Effective Use of High Traffic Days, If you do have linkbait, whether by design or by accident, make sure to capitalize. When you hit the front page of Digg, Reddit, Boing Boing, or, on a smaller scale, attract a couple hundred visitors from a bigger blog or site in your space, you need to put your best foot forward. Make sure to follow up on a high traffic time period with 2-3 high quality posts that show off your skills as a writer, your depth of understanding and let visitors know that this is content they should be sticking around to see more of. Nothing kills the potential linkbait "bump" faster than a blog whose content doesn't update for 48 hours after they've received a huge influx of visitors.

Create Expectations and Fulfill Them, When you're writing for your audience, your content focus, post timing and areas of interest will all become associated with your personal style. If you vary widely from that style, you risk alienating folks who've come to know you and rely on you for specific data. Thus, if you build a blog around the idea of being an analytical expert in your field, don't ignore the latest release of industry figures only to chat about an emotional issue - deliver what your readers expect of you and crunch the numbers. This applies equally well to post frequency - if your blog regularly churns out 2 posts a day, having two weeks with only 4 posts is going to have an adverse impact on traffic. That's not to say you can't take a vacation, but you need to schedule it wisely and be prepared to lose RSS subscribers and regulars. It's not fair, but it's the truth. We lose visitors every time I attend an SES conference and drop to one post every two days.

Build a Brand, Possibly one of the most important aspects of all in blogging is brand-building. As Zefrank noted, to be a great brand, you need to be a brand that people want to associate themselves with and a brand that people feel they derive value from being a member. Exclusivity, insider jokes, emails with regulars, the occasional cat post and references to your previous experiences can be off putting for new readers, but they're solid gold for keeping your loyal base feeling good about their brand experience with you. Be careful to stick to your brand - once you have a definition that people like and are comfortable with, it's very hard to break that mold without severe repercussions. If you're building a new blog, or building a low-traffic one, I highly recommend writing down the goals of your brand and the attributes of its identity to help remind you as you write.

Best of luck to all you bloggers out there. It's an increasingly crowded field to play in, but these strategies should help to give you an edge over the competition. As always, if you've got additions or disagreements, I'd love to hear them.

Optimize Adsense Keywords and Earning

2010-11-06T07:47:00.004+07:00

Adsense from Google Adsense provides an easy opportunity for bloggers and webmasters to earn revenue from their hard work. To make significant money from your website or blog, the trick is to find the right way to deploy Adsense.

Simply cutting and pasting the Adsense code on to your web pages will not be enough. Try out variations of advert page placements and advert formats. To find the right layout that maximizes Adsense revenue usually takes a while.

One of the keys to a good Adsense click-through rate is to make sure that the ads served are relevant to your website visitors. if the goods and services offered by your advertisers are irrelevant then your visitors will not be interested in visiting their sites. make sure your content is relevant and is targeted at a narrow selection of related topics. Your meta tag keywords must reflect the content of your website.

There are numerous successful methods for increasingAdsense money. A great tip is to place the Adsense adverts on page ‘hotspots’. the top left of a web page is well known to be an effective zone on which to place advertisements. the reason for this is that we all read from top to bottom and from left to right.

Another excellent Google Adsense tip is to locate adverts on your pages with the highest traffic. decide which are the best pages by monitoring your web statistics and locating the main visitor entry pages.

Your Adsense ads should blend in with the rest of your web page. this generally makes the adverts seem like a natural part of your site, and will reassure your visitors and make the site look more professional. Adsense allow website developers with content centric websites to add a substantial revenue stream to their site by adding contextual advertising, which can generate revenue from few pennies a day to thousands of dollars per month.

Some of the websites like Iotaweb.org helps the visitors to search for keywords and key phrases which can produce high dollar contextual advertising. There are approximately 360 Google Adsense Top paying Keywords starting with letter A. Keywords on Google are sorted by highest average CPS. Some of the main keywords are: adverse credit remortgages, at call conference, angeles drug los rehab, at go and so on.

The formula for success is (# of Visitors) X (Click thru %) X (Ad value) = Income.

By what means ads can be created on Google? The process is simple, you create ads and choose keywords, which are words or phrases related your business. When a visitor searches on Google using one of your keywords, your ad may appear next to the search results. You are actually advertising to an audience or the visitor that’s already interested in you.

Visitors simply click your ad to make a purchase or learn more about your product. Actually you don’t even need a webpage to get started – Google helps in creating one for you free of cost.

One can find numerous keyword research tools. Keyword Country is considered to be the most comprehensive and most complete keyword research tool. It connects to major engines for keyword research including Google, MSN, Yahoo, ASK. It steals all the niche keywords that the industry happens to be focusing on.

Its software Google Adsense KeywordGoogle is one of the maximum earning search engines.

With this you can access to:

a) Most profitable High paying Keywords

b) Traffic building keywords

c) High CTR keywords

d) Thousands of Niche keywords from almost 600,000 markets online

e) Increase website traffic, build more content and study the behavior of keywords

Since your aim is to earn money, you have to be more specific in choosing the best keyword to attract organic traffic to earn money through your website. When we think of high paying keywords, the first thing that comes in our mind is CPC – Cost per Click. The maximum amount that an advertiser pays is termed as CPC. The more CPC of the keyword, the more will be the payout for the said keyword. Google has been the most accurate source of CPC.

All the website publishers and advertisers can use Google Adsense to advertise and earn money in return. Content can be advertised without much effort. You can display targeted Google ads on your website’s contents pages and earn valid clicks or impressions. One can utilize the Adsense; through which one can have access to Google’s advertiser’s network, and subsequently display your ads that are targeted to a particular audience which shows interest by knowing the most expensive keywords on the internet; you can create websites and web pages based on these keywords. On these web pages you can show expensive ads and sell your affiliates products or offers to earn money.
