Downloading Windows 7 ISOs officially for free from official sources along with checksums and md5 hashes

2016-06-29T04:19:00.001-07:00

Hello Guys In this tutorial I wanna Walk u through the downloading step of Windows 7from official sources without spying or without malicious stuffs (:

For years, Microsoft allowed us to download Windows 7 ISOs. They did it using their content delivery partner, Digital River. On February 2015, the company decided to take down those links. Thankfully, there is an independent mirror where we can download Windows 7 ISOs, legally and for free.

Even though it would work, downloading Windows 7 from questionable sources is never a good idea. For all we know, it could contain a host of malware: rootkits, trojans, keyloggers,etc etc whatever you name it.

That's why it was a big deal that Microsoft allowed us to download Windows 7 as an ISO through Digital River. We could download Windows 7 and be sure that the ISO was clean and untampered.

And then, in early February 2015, Microsoft decided to take down the Digital River ISOs, for good.

Sure, they have set up the Microsoft Software Recovery website, the "official" way to download Windows 7

The clean way to download Windows 7

The good news is that whatever goes up on the Internet, never really goes away - for better or for worse.

The German mirror http://mirror.corenoc.de/ has done an exceptional job gathering the Digital River ISOs and uploading them as torrent files. They have all the different English versions and even a few in other languages.Now Enjoy your Downloading and Stayed Connected

YouTube, the extremely popular video sharing website averaging more than 3 billion page views per day needs no introduction to its fans who spend a considerable amount of their time watching and sharing videos on it.

YouTube Disco

YouTube is all set to replace your music players with YouTube Disco. This music discovery project allows you to find the videos of your choice, create a list of them and then easily watch them without having the need to choose a new video after the one you are watching is finished.

YouTube Editor

Do you edit your videos before uploading them to YouTube? Now, you don't need to because it lets you to do all of that online with YouTube Editor; well not all of that but it at least lets you combine, trim and rotate videos.

It also offers some comparably advanced features like stabilizing shaky videos and inserting transitions.

YouTube TV

YouTube lets you watch the videos of your choice but have you ever wanted to just sit back and enjoy watching videos just like you watch television? If you have, then YouTube TV can be of help. YouTube TV plays high quality full screen videos tailored to your choices (if you are signed in to your Google account). If you are not signed in, you can choose a category to watch videos from, watch featured videos and even search for the video of your choice. You can then connect your TV to your computer to seamlessly enjoy TV, YouTube style.

Set default video playback quality

Are you annoyed at manually changing the quality of every YouTube video you watch? Now you don't need to, because YouTube has an option that automatically lets you select the quality of videos you see. If you have a slow connection, you can select the option of never playing high quality videos. You can also select the option of showing captions and annotations automatically.

Watch Videos blocked in your country with a URL trick

If the URL of the video that is is youtube.com/watch?v={video-id}, you can access it by going to youtube.com/v/{video-id}. As an additional advantage, you will be able to view the video at the full size of your browser window.

YouTube has a dedicated page to allow users to watch full-length ad supported movies for free. Movies are classified based on their genre and are offered in full HD quality. Movies are uploaded by the creators for the purpose of creating another source of revenue for themselves as Google gives them a portion of the advertising revenue. A similar page exists for TV shows. These two pages are country specific and may or may not be available in your country.

How to Hide your IP Address to Serve and Browse the Internet Safe and Anonymously.

2016-06-29T04:14:00.002-07:00

How to Hide the IP Address:

Every computer on the Internet has a unique IP address allotted to it which makes it possible to trace it back to its exact location. Even though the concept of IP address has been designed for its transparency and traceability, in some cases this questions the privacy of the Internet users where one would not like to reveal his/her identity to the outside world.

Well, if you are one such person who is in search of ways to hide your IP address, then you are at the right place. In this post, I will discuss some of the easy and popular ways to mask your IP address so that your identity and privacy is kept safe.

Why Hide IP Address?

The following are some of the common reasons why people want to mask their IP address online:

1. By hiding the IP address, people can browse websites anonymously without leaving the trace of their identity.

2. To access websites and portals that are not available to the IP address’s Geo location.

3. Stay safe from intruders and hackers by showing a fake IP to the world and keeping real IP concealed.

4. Hiding IP means hiding geographical location.

5. Hiding IP prevents leaving a digital footprint of their online activity.

How to Hide Your IP?

Some of the most common ways to hide IP and safeguard your online identity are discussed below:

1. Using a VPN Proxy – Safe and Secure Way to Hide IP

What is VPN

According to Webopedia VPN, or virtual private network, is a network that is constructed by using public wires — usually the Internet — to connect to a private network, such as a company's internal network. There are a number of systems that enable you to create networks using theInternet as the medium for transporting data. These systems use encryption and other security mechanisms to ensure that onlyauthorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

Using a trusted VPN proxy service is the best way to conceal your IP address during your online activities. Here is a list of most popular and highly reliable VPN proxy services that will hide your IP address:

Here are the list of Some Free VPNs out there which can transfer your public IP Address to the one specify by their services.All have their own Advantages and Disadvantages depending on their services they provided.

Top 5 VPNs

1.Cyberghost VPN

Positives: Great if you want to surf websites with web-optimized content. Cyberghost VPN special edition only cost you $1.24/monthly though it also offers a ‘Free Proxy’ service that changes your IP to let you visit your chosen, often blocked, websites, anonymously.

Negatives: The free version works seamlessly if you don’t count the paid advertisements that keep popping up. The free version chooses your server for you and does not automatically reconnect in the event of a disconnection.

Positives: All server locations are accessible to free users and a 1GB is added to the data limit as a reward if the user tweets about TunnelBear. The user interface is user friendly with a minimal learning curve.

4. Hotspot Shield

Positives: The free VPN service of Hotspot Shield effectively circumvents a majority of viewing and download blocks. The free version works almost as good as the paid version.

Negatives: The free Hotspot Shield VPN can be instantly downloaded. However, it comes with a barrage of paid advertisements. Moreover, redirects to advertisements dominate the screen from time to time, which is extremely annoying and spoils the experience.

5. Security KISS

Positives: The Security Kiss Green Plan, another name for its free VPN service, allows unlimited server switching across servers located in 4 countries. OpenVPN, PPTP and L2TP are available with multi-platform support. Want to know the best bit of all? No ads!

Negatives: Sporting a data limit of 300 MB/day, the free plan does not support streaming, email, VoIP and games. Only security gateways located in the US, UK, France and Germany are available to the free user.
You don’t get access to the Security Kiss dedicated and fast servers, and the connection speed rarely reaches even half of the claimed 100Mbit/s. The package is better than the others but the service offers very restricted leg room to make for a comfortable user experience.

2015/2016's best antivirus for PC and laptop

2016-06-29T04:00:00.004-07:00

2015/2016's best antivirus & best free antivirus for PC and laptop UK

Best antivirus: Why you need antivirus - What is antivirus?
Antivirus software detects, and then prevents, disarms or removes malicious programs or malware, often referred to as 'viruses'. Antivirus doesn't offer a perfect solution to the problem of malware, but it is a critical first step to securing your PC or laptop. To help prevent viruses infecting your PC you must install antivirus, and then regularly update your antivirus software. All of the antivirus software reviewed here will update automatically.

Best antivirus: what's the difference between free antivirus and paid antivirus?

Our tests focus on paid-for and free AV products. Paid-for AV products usually offer better technical support and more comprehensive protection features than free programs, but free is free. Internet security suites go further still, offering firewalls, parental controls, identity theft protection and more.

15. ESET NOD32 Antivirus

ESET NOD32 Antivirus is a sound antivirus product with some useful extras, though it’s a bit surprising anti-spam isn't included in the product. The software is easy to use and doesn't disrupt the normal function of a PC it’s running on. Technically, it's a strong contender, without being in the front rank.

14. Webroot Internet Security Plus 2015

It’s not possible to compare Webroot’s offering with the others in terms of AV efficacy, as we have no test results, but the company’s claim to scan fast and leave a light impression looks fair.
13. Panda Global Protection 2015

Panda Global Protection 2015 is a good option, if you need to protect a range of different devices from Windows PCs to Macs and Android machines. Not quite as generous as McAfee's ‘as-many-as-you-like' offering and a point off the perfect score in AV-Test's testing, the Panda product costs £20 less, too and is particularly easy to use.

12. G-Data Internet Security 2015

G-Data Internet Security 2015 is relatively inexpensive for a full-featured security suite. It's not the most successful at beating out web threats, but it is sufficiently good to be worth installing. A decent purchase, if not the best.

11. McAfee LiveSafe 2015

If you run a couple of home Windows PCs, a Mac, a tablet and a smartphone, or a similar combination, McAfee LiveSafe 2015 is an economical way of protecting them all and providing anti-theft facilities on the mobile devices. While the feature set of the IS component of the package may lack back-up and PC tune-up, the power of its AV protection can't be denied.

10. AVG Free Antivirus 2016

AVG Free continues to be one of the best free antivirus programs you can download. It offers a good selection of key protections, though you do have to be careful to install the right product.

9. Avast Free Antivirus 2015

Avast Free Antivirus 2015 is one of the best free security products you can install. It offers a surprising range of free goodies, including application and browser app analysis and, separately, an excellent Android suite, covering AV and anti-theft. A better than average AV-Test rating

8. Panda Free Antivirus 2016

Panda is one of the leading antivirus providers and this free offering includes a couple of interesting extras. We were surprised at the time it took for both the initial and follow-up test

7. Qihoo 360 Total Security 2016

If you want the extra features that Total Security 2016 offers over and above a plain free antivirus product, then Qihoo isn't a bad choice. And if you do install it, you should head straight into the settings and enable the Bitdefender scanner.

6. Trend Micro Internet Security 2015

With such a good performance and the lower asking price, Trend Internet Security 2015 represents very good value, even though it misses out on certain extras offered by some of its competition.

5. BitDefender Antivirus Free Edition 2016
BitDefender Free Edition will suit a certain kind of user, one who just wants to install the software and let it do its job, without recourse to setup changes or manually scans. Since it has such a high protection score, it’s safe to do this, but if you prefer to have more hands-on control, you may find this approach frustrating.

4. Avira Free Antivirus 2015

Overall, this is one of the best free AV applications you’re going to find. With perfect scores from AV-Test, a good range of facilities for a zero-cost suite and a well-designed interface which is easy to use and direct, Avira Free Antivirus 2015 is a great choice to protect your PCs.

3. Kaspersky Total Security 2015

A three-device, full protection IS suite for under £50 is good value and when that includes cover on all the major platforms, it should be flexible enough for most. Kaspersky Total Security 2015’s technical strength can’t be faulted, with only Avira Anti Virus Pro matching it in the AV-Test group.

2. Malware Bytes Antimalware
Malware Bytes Protects you from various types of malicious softwares like worms , viruses, trojan horses and also recomended by security professionals .

1. Symantec Norton Security with Backup

Offering excellent value with 10 licences to cover all your devices, Norton Security with Backup also offers a strong feature set and very good protection from viruses and other malware. Recommended.

how to stop crypto

2016-06-29T03:59:00.000-07:00

Your concerns are valid as CryptoLocker is a particularly nasty piece of malware that can effectively destroy files on Windows-based PCs beyond the ability of any data recovery process Unlike other viruses, which may simply delete your files, allowing for the possibility of some file recovery, CryptoLocker will securely encrypt them, making recovery impossible without the encryption key held by the attackers. This is offered only in exchange for a ransom payment.

Paying the required fee is also no guarantee that your files will be decrypted and restored to you. Other malware has employed similar tactics in the past, but CryptoLocker's encryption is much more secure and is currently not possible to crack.

The steps to guard against CryptoLocker are essentially the same good practices that should be employed to guard against any malware attack or hardware failure:

Make sure you're using antivirus software and that it's kept up to date. Thankfully, most antivirus applications can now detect and remove CryptoLocker, but are only of use if they catch it before the encryption occurs.

Also make sure that you regularly back up all your data. These backups should be in a form that's disconnected from your computer, as CryptoLocker will seek out any connected USB drives and network shares, and attempt to encrypt those files, too. This can also apply to files being synced to Cloud services, although you should often be able to retrieve previous, and therefore unencrypted, versions of these files via the Cloud service provider. Users of Windows starting with XP Service Pack 2 may also be able to retrieve previous (and therefore unencrypted) versions of their files, by right-clicking on an encrypted file and selecting Properties, then 'Previous Versions'.

For peace of mind, it's a good idea to perform an image backup right now and store it on a USB drive that you don't keep permanently connected.

Email is CryptoLocker's primary mode of attack, so avoid opening any email attachments from untrusted sources or that appear in any way suspicious. This should include attachments sent from banks or financial institutions and, particularly in the case of CryptoLocker, from courier companies or from Companies House. Also ensure the email scanning feature of your antivirus software is configured and enabled.

If you want to check right now whether CryptoLocker has found its way onto your PC, you can download and run This will scan for the Trojan and remove it for you if discovered. If CryptoLocker has already encrypted your files, then it will display a message demanding payment. Unfortunately, by this time it's too late to recover your files if they are not backed up. You will then have to consider whether to give in to the attackers' demands for the slim chance of receiving a decryption key.

why facebook is blue in color

2016-06-29T03:48:00.001-07:00

Welcome , Today we are going to talk about the Big Blue App having billions of users world wide that why Facebook is blue ever and ever .As you may have notice that every apps coming of the Facebook are blue in color what the heck is this . From logos to their background , From icons to typography all comes in blue in color.

“Blue is the richest color for me; I can see all of blue.”

“Tim Berners-Lee, the main inventor of the web, is believed to be the man who first made hyperlinks blue. Mosaic, a very early web browser, displayed webpages with a (ugly) gray background and black
text. The darkest color available at the time that was not the same as the black text was that blue color. Therefore, to make links stand apart from plain text, but still be readable, the color blue was selected.”
