Well, you can do a lot of interesting things over email without a web connection - you can read any webpages over email, maintain your task list, convert documents, upload photo and videos, get dictionary meanings of words and more.

Just make sure that you have added the following address to your email address book:

9. ..@photos.flickr.com - Flickr provides a unique email upload address here - you can send your photographs to this email address as attachments and they’ll show up in Flick Photo gallery almost instantly.

How to Get a New IP Address Even If You Have a Static IP

To start off, you need a direct connection to your modem and computer. If you have a router, disconnect it and directly hook up your modem to your computer.

1. Open up the command prompt by pressing Start->Run and typing in cmd
2. In the command prompt, type “Ipconfig/all”. This will tell you your current IP Address. After, type “ipconfig/release”. Keep the command prompt open for easy access.
3. Go to “Network Connections” (accessible through the control panel). Right click “Local Area Connection” and click “Properties”
4. With “Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) selected, click the “Properties” button.
5. A new window will open. Under the “General” tab, select “Use the Following IP address”. Under “Ip Address”, put “10.0.0.1″. Press the “Tab” key on your keyboard.
6. Press Ok on both open windows.
7. Repeat steps 3-4. Under the “General” tab, press the radio button “Automatically Assign Me an Ip Address”. Press ok on both windows.
8. Go back to the command prompt and type in “Ipconfig/all”. You’ll now notice you have a new IP address.

P.S: So, this will be handy if you want to by-pass Rapidshare 1 hour download limit, provided that you have a static IP address.

Speed-Up Internet In Firefox

In this post, I tell you how to configure Firefox for Broadband. This makes you internet 2x faster. It works with bot Macs' and PCs'.

First go to firefox and type about:config in the address bar
In the filter text box, type network and scroll down until you see network.http.pipelining
Go to the value and change it to true (default:false)
In the below line (network.http.pipelining.maxrequests) change the value to 10 (default: 4)

Simple Password Hacking

Follow the tutorial in the video for an easy way to change somebodys account password without knowing it in the first place.

Does it work in the first place?
Sort of.....
Yes, you can change the password of the account you're currently logged on as, or of an account that you have just created (if you have said privileges) without being challenged for the old password. This is a security hole. (Good reason to never leave your system without first locking it!)But, to change any other account's password it will only work if the user you're logged in as is a Local (or Domain) Administrator. Otherwise, you get a denied error message. Would be a very serious security flaw otherwise.

How To Use USB FlashDrives As RAM (VISTA ONLY)

Windows Vista has a new performance feature called ReadyBoost. This feature enables the use of a USB storage device instead of the slow paging file on your hard disk when you're low on physical memory (RAM). The logic is simple - the USB storage device is faster than your hard disk drive.

In order for ReadyBoost to work in Windows Vista, your USB storage device must meet the following requirements:
- the device must have at least 64MB storage.
- the device must be USB 2.0 compatible.
- the device must have a minimum read speed of 3.5 MB/s.
- the device must have a minimum write speed of 2.5 MB/s.

Follow these steps to enable ReadyBoost:
1. Plug in USB storage device.
2. Go to Computer, right-click on the removable storage device and select Properties.
3. Click on the ReadyBoost tab.
4. Select Use This Device and set the amount of space to use for the system file.
5. Click OK.
