How to redirect one website to another web address in blogger.com

There are a number of reasons you may want to automatically send visitors to your blog to another URL or from one blog to another.For example if you moved your blog, if you had two blogs and wanted to focus one just one and cover both topics.Automatically directing visitors to another URL is actually quiet easy and only requires a snippet of code added to the top of the template.In this post i will show you the code needed to automatically Redirect from a Blogger Blog to any other URL.

Firstly I should mention some people don't like to be redirected and you should only direct to a site with similar content.If you redirect people to sales pages, sites with adult content or anywhere the user is uncomfortable with it will put your Blogger account in jeopardy.For this reason the code i have in this post can be set to Redirect in an amount of time set by you.So you can set the code to redirect after 5 seconds and place a message at the top of the blog telling visitors they will be redirected.

Add Auto Redirect Code To Blogger

Step 1. In Your (New Design) Blogger Dashboard Click The Drop Down Menu For Your Blog > Choose Template > Then Edit Html > Now Proceed > Tick The Expand Widget Templates Box.

Step 2. Find the following piece of code in your blogs Html :
(It's Near The Very Top)

<head>

Step 3. Copy And Paste The Following Code Directly Below / Under <head>

Important -

1. Replace http://www.YOUR-URL.com/ In Blue With The URL You Want To Forward To.
2. The Number 5 In Red Sets The Amount Of Seconds Before The User Is Redirected Change This To Suit.

Step 4. Save your template and your blog will now redirect after the time you set.Once again remember don't use this to send people to sites unrelated or with spam as your entire Blogger Account may be effected.

If you give at least 5 seconds and add a clear message at the top of the blog there should be no trouble.

How to recover linux operating system after installing windows operating system of a dual boot system

If we install any Windows Operating System (Windows XP, Windows 7 etc) on a computer which already having Linux based Operating System (Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Suse etc), the system is not able to boot into Linux based OS, as Windows installers overwrite the GRUB boot loader during installation. As a result we don’t get any option to select the operating system during boot up and system boots up into Windows straight away.

This may create a lot of panic in the mind of the user as there are fears of loosing complete Linux based installations. But no need to worry as the installed Linux based system is already there. What we need to actually do is to restore the GRUB in Linux mode.

It will be solved by some easy steps:

Download SuperGRUB from http://www.supergrubdisk.org/.

Burn the ISO into a CD using a CD burner tool.

Make sure your system is set up to boot from the CD (in the BIOS set up).

Reboot your computer after placing the CD so burned, into the CD tray.

The computer will boot up from CD and will load GRUB 2 and show you a screen as shown below.

Select the option named “Detect any Operating System” using arrow keys and press enter key.

Please wait for a while, during which the superGRUB searches for the installed operating systems.

It will show up a list of all the Operating Systems installed in your computer.
Select the latest version of Linux Kernel shown from the available choices using the arrow keys and then press enter.

And you will see your system booting up into your Linux installation.

After complete loading of the Operating System you see your familiar desktop.

How to fix "Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator"

Windows Task Manager is used to view details about processes running on your computer. Since it can be used to terminate programs that are misbehaving or are viruses disguised in the form of harmless programs, most spyware and viruses disable it to prevent themselves from being closed through it. Some administrators also disable Task Manager to prevent users from closing important security programs like antiviruses and anti-malwares.

In such situations, running the Task Manager will give the "Task Manager has been disabled by Administrator" error. However, there are some techniques you can use to re-enable task manager and close those harmful programs manually. This article contains few such simple techniques you can use to regain access to Task Managing privileges.

You can do it by four different ways:

Enable Task Manager from Group Policy Editor (Gpedit.msc)

Group Policy Editor is a feature in Windows which is used to edit local policy settings. It can also be used to enable Task Manager. To do so, just follow the steps given below:-

Open Start Menu. Windows XP users click on Run. Windows 8, Windows 7 and Vista users, go to Search.
Type gpedit.msc and press Enter. Group Policy Editor Window will show up.
From the navigational pane at the left hand side, go to: User Configuration>Administrative Templates>System>Ctrl+Alt+Del Options.
In the work area, double click on "Remove Task Manager" and set its value to Disabled or Not Configured.
Restart your Computer or Log Off and Log back On to apply the changes.

N.B. Group Policy Editor is not available on home editions of Windows.

Enable Task Manager by Running a CMD Command

Command Prompt can also be used to directly enable Task Manager.

Open Notepad.
Copy the code given below and paste it.

REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d /0 /f

Save the File as TaskManager.bat.
Run TaskManager.bat as Administrator if you use Windows 8, Windows 7 or Windows Vista. In Windows XP, simply open the file. A command prompt window will flash for a second and then disappear indicating successful execution. After running the batch file, you will be able to again use Task Manager. If Task Manager is still not available, restart your computer.

Create a Registry(.reg) file for enabling Task Manager

If you are unfamiliar with manually editing the Registry, you can create a Registry file which will automatically modify the Registry Key to re-enable Task Managing. To create one such file:-

Open Notepad or any other text editor.
Copy the code given below and paste it as it is in it.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System] “DisableTaskMgr” =dword:00000000

Save the file as Enable Task Manager.reg or *.reg.

Open the file by double clicking on it.
Registry Editor will ask you for confirmation. In the confirmation Window, click Yes.
Task Manager would immediately be accessible. If it is not, restart your computer.

Enable Task Manager from Registry in Windows 8, 7, XP or Vista

Registry Editor is an inbuilt Windows tool that is used to modify registry keys which tell Windows how it should work. A simple registry modification can be used to bypass the Task Manager block. To do so, just follow the steps:-

Click on Start. Go to Run. If you use Windows 8, Windows 7 or Windows Vista, go to Search.
Type regedit and press Enter. Registry Editor will start. If Registry Editor is also disabled, you will first need to enable registry editing.
Through the left hand navigation pane, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\ Current Version\Policies\System. If the System key is not there, you will need to create it.
In the work area, locate "DisableTaskMgr". If this value is not there, you will need to create a new DWORD value called DisableTaskMgr. Double click on it. A window will pop up.
Enter its value data as 0 and press OK.
Close Registry Editor. If Task Manager is still disabled, restart your computer.

I have tested in some cases in windows xp and windows 7. Please share your experiences whether it is working or not.

How to block Facebook ads

Hi, today I am going to share how to block Facebook ads in Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Android, Opera.

Now a days, Facebook has started showing advertisement on the right sidebar and also upon our timeline. Some ads are exposed which may not be acceptable by us. Still we are constantly annoyed by all those Facebook ads popping up on our timeline and also on the sidebar. Although personally, I am not against such advertisements because they can be the bread and butter of a website that you are using for free.

It might by block in different ways which I am discussing following bellow.

F.B. Purity - Cleans Up Facebook 8.2.2 : Just click on "Add to Firefox" and Install Now. Now restart your browser. After that open and login in your facebook account and a popup will come click on like and close. It is the solution for Mozilla Firefox. It will block ads in the Facebook only.

Facebook Ads Blocker : Just click on " Add to Chrome" and Add. It is the solution for Google Chrome .

Adblock Plus : It is an extension invented by Stanford University researcher for Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Android, Opera to block preferable ads in the Facebook as well as other websites also. It has some valuable advantages like: You can block / allow any particular website domain / page / add whatever you want because sometimes adds are useful for some Google searching. Below snapshots show how to manage adblock enable / disable for a website domain / page / add.

It will also block run-time add on the YouTube which is coming before any video playing.

This dialog-box will be found in the right hand upper side after click on the sing of hand.

This is a example where if you don't want block add on YouTube.

This is also tested by me on Windows 7 / 8 and Ubuntu 10.04.

How to recover data from shortcut of a pendrive / flash drive?

Dear friends today I am going to discuss "How to recover data from shortcut virus of a pen-drive / flash drive ".

Actually, I had suffered this situation. One day, I took my pen-drive and inserted it into a computer. After that I could not find the folders in my pen-drive except shortcut of the existing folders. Fortunately, I have recovered my data by a simple way. The steps are following below:

Please do not format the pen-drive or USB flash drive.
Insert the affected pen-drive into computer which have Windows 7 / 8 operating system. Windows XP may not be applicable.
Click on "Start" -->Run-->type cmd and Right click "open as administrator".
Then enter this command:

attrib -h -r -s /s /d I:\*.*
NB: Please replace the letter I which is my pen-drive / flash drive location to your pen-drive.

Now check your files and folders in pen-drive. All the desired files and folders should be visible.

Explanation:

When we insert our pen-drive or flash drive the shortcut virus is executed by autorun program. Then this shortcut virus make the files, folders to system files, folders and hide them. This command recover all by changing the attribute of the files, folders to normal types.

You can see the files before applying the command by another way. For windows 7 the way is:

Open My Computer >> click on "Organize" >> click on "Folder and search options" >> go to "View" >> Check "Show hidden files, folders, and drives" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files".

Then apply and ok.

After that go to your pen-drive. You will see the folders and files. The snapshots are given bellow.

Good luck.

How to enable multiple remote desktop user logins in Windows 7 / 8 ?

Windows remote desktop connection application can be used in order to connect to another PC on the same network or the internet. Both computers should use Windows and have the “Remote desktop connection” application available. For example, you can use all of your work computer’s programs, files, and network resources from your home computer, and it’s just like you’re sitting in front of your computer at work. You can also use it to access an application that is only installed on a single computer, by multiple users at the same time.

Windows 7 do not allow the concurrent use of a single computer by multiple users. This means that a user needs to be signed out before a second user logs in. This is not the case for the server editions of Windows. Luckily there is a patch that allows you to override this setting and connect multiple users at the same time on a single computer. The will even be able to use the same applications at the same time.

You have to do two patches.

Patch 1

The first patch just enables multi-user support for the Windows remote desktop connection tool:

You need to download the following zip file: Win7RDP.zip. Go to file and click download or download individually. For this case download three files (two *.dll and one *.cmd).
Unzip the contents.
Execute (Right click & Run as Administrator) the file "install.cmd".
You should see a screen similar to the one below, if everything works fine.

5. After the end of the patching process the remote desktop connection of your pc provides multi-user support.

Patch 2

The following patch application lets you choose whether or not to enable multi-user support for the remote desktop connection process or/and to disable the no blank password policy that is enforced on users that need to connect remotely. Follow the steps below to access the application

Download the file Concurrent_RDP_Patcher_2-22-2011.zip
Open the compressed file and execute the file “Concurrent RDP Patcher.exe”
You should see the following screen

4. Check the desired options and then click the patch button.

This is tested on Windows 7 and Windows 8 on 21/05/2013

How to Download Page/s from Google Books?

You can download page/s from Google-book by two ways.

Google Books Downloader for Windows and Mac OS X

As announced by Google, the aim of this project is to provide users with their own bookshelf on hand, no matter where they are. Purchased or downloaded books can be read using a desktop browser, as well as through mobile devices based on the Android operating system or iOS. Additionally, the books can be read on any e-reader with Adobe Digital Editions software.
As opposed to the Picasa service which provides an access to photos, the Google Books service does not allow users to download free electronic editions without digital copy protection and use them on other devices. Google Books Downloader is a little software that allows you to save these books in PDF, JPEG or PNG format (note: it supports only the books marked as "full view").

This is the link from where you may download the Google-book downloader http://www.gbooksdownloader.com/
