以无法为有法, 以无限为有限
无可挡原是我精武英雄
英雄无不冲动
谁阻挡凌辱我怎去遵从
坚持人的尊重
谁瑟缩中偷生我愤怒
我定我的命途
谁哑忍声音不会泄露
我心一生刺着刀
无妥协世局摇荡
甚么东亚病汉
无妥协眼在前望
历史因我被震荡
宁于猛火中灭亡
无担忧无害怕走上惊涛
英雄源于风暴
狂魔者来负我怎需分途
坚持人的骄傲
谁瑟缩中偷生我愤怒
我定我的命途
谁哑忍声音不会泄露
内心一生刺着刀
无妥协世局摇荡
甚么东亚病汉
无妥协眼在前望
历史因我被震荡
宁于猛火中灭亡
我话俾你地知!我地中国人唔系东亚病夫!
身在天边的远方
看沙穿过万里
令心感真理不死
无妥协世局摇荡
甚么东亚病汉
无妥协眼在前望
历史因我被震荡
宁于猛火中...宁于猛火中灭亡
This is (In my opinion) the most significant change in Firefox 3.5. Not that its something new. I did remember it was attempted back in the days of Netscape. But now, someone finally give it some serious thoughts (in Firefox anyway).
To turn it on, simply go to Tools>Start Privacy Browsing (or CTRL-SHIFT-P for lazy bumps like me). But first, make sure you are on Firefox 3.5 final. You will notice that it will ask you to confirm. What they failed to tell you (or warn you) is that it will close all your current tabs, cancel all your downloads in the background etc. Anyway, ensure you are all ready to switch off all those, click yes and then you are in.
In the privacy mode (or AKA Porn Browser Mode for good reasons), all your surfing is not tracked. No history, no saving of password etc. Therefore, you can safely visit sites and download stuff that you do not want to leave traces on the machines. However, you need to take note that this can be a false sense of security. Whatever you do can still be tracked on the proxies, firewall or whatever was installed outside your machine. It can still be TRACABLE. So do not let the privacy mode fool you. You do NOT was an email from your boss asking why are you visiting playboy.com daily in the morning. :)
In addition, you will notice that there is a Clear Recent History option right under Tools below the Privacy mode. This does what it says and can be access lazily by CTRL-SHIFT-DEL. But its more than just clearing all history. It allows you to choose what history you wish to destroy. This is based on time though. If you wish to clear history about certain sites (such as porn4free.com etc), you can do so easily by using the History Library from History>Show All History (or lazily CTRL-SHIFT-H). Under the site you wish to purge, right click and select Forget About This Site. If you are in Privacy mode already, you will notice nothing comes up in the History Library obviously.
If you are really very very concern about privacy and press CTRL-SHIFT-P can really hurt you, do not worry. There is even a way to switch off all history completely whether you are in or out of privacy mode. To do that, select Tools>Option. Click on the Privacy tab and you can change it to Never Remeber History. You can also clear your cookies here by clicking on the link "remove individual cookies". Of course, you can also tailor the history behavior by selecting "Use Custom Settings for History" and change whatever options you desire.
Supposely you want to do something about the Location Bar search as well. You can change that in the same place under Tools>Option, Privacy tab. You can change it such that it search from history, bookmarks, both or none. That way you won't accidentally display search results from places you do not want to show your child when doing some homework together.
Normal users still have another option. Its call Firefox portable. I believe 3.5 is out as well. check it out at:
http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
For U3 and other portable options, check the respective sites. The good thing about portable version is that it does not even cache into the actual system's harddisk, but instead in the portable devices only. The bad point is that portable version are usually not as often updated.
Ok, for normal users. You should stop here. What I am going to say is really advance stuff which can break or damage your Firefox installation. Firefox has a developer mode which has something known as Profile Manager. To access this, you will need to execute :
firefox.exe -ProfileManagerThis will allow you to create, delete and manager different profile for use in Firefox. This should be the clean and ideal way to manage bookmarks and history. However, since this is a function that Firefox wish to hide from the users, let's just presumed this is not stable and usable for some reasons. In any case, the documentation for the Profile Manager is here:

Grab it from softpedia:

Some of the enhancements:
New JavaScript engine called TraceMonkey
Porn mode privacy browsing
Location-aware (tracking?) browsing
Support for HTML5 Audio and Video tagging
Enhance scripting which shifts Javascript to background (AJAX?)
Personally, I am very concern about point 2 and 3 for obvious reasons. Oh, btw, this works with Windows 7 (finally).
At the same time that Microsoft released Security Essentials, IObits has also release their anti-mlaware solution. Actually, its much earlier, but I had not covered it since its still in beta. Well, its call Security 360. I wonder if Xbox or Symantec is going to kick a big fuss about "360", but of course we all know that nobody can copyright a number.
In any case, IObits solution is a beta and it is free as well. So, do pop by and try it at:
http://www.iobit.com/beta.html
Microsoft Morro is a highly anticipated Microsoft solution for anti malware. It is officially Microsoft Security Essentials. Just pop by here to download the beta now:
http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/support.aspx
The installation is pretty straight forward.
The picture with the castle is quite suitable for a security product.
However, its should be very expected that it can ONLY be installed on a genuine Windows product as you can see from the WGA below:
The install should take only a while.
After which, if you are installing this offline, I strongly suggest you download the updates in advence.
Manually download the definitions:

In then end, I can only conclude that this is not going to be able to replace OneCare in anyway... This is simiply a glorified and updated version of Windows Defender with real time monitoring.
Ok, this is related to my previous post:
Here is an extract from the IBTRM (Internet Banking and Technology Risk Management Guidelines) June 2008 published by MAS (Monetary Authority of Singapore) :
11.0.3
"PIN should be at least 6 digits or 6 alphanumeric characters, without repeating any digit or character more than once."
Can you see what is wrong with the above recommendation? Well, if you do not get it, I will explain in the next post.
The full guideline is available via:

I still remember it was a long long time ago when there so many CD Burning software out there. Nero was certainly not hte first. I believed I started off with a very small one which I believe was later acquired by Roxio and its it merged into what you have today in the Roxio family of products. I had also tried Sonic Foundary, which if I am not wrong, is now part of Sony. But my favorite was Nero.
I had been with Nero since the early days. I believe I saw it expanded into multiple products and of course got bloated with all the extras as well. The latest I was with is 9.4. However, I had to call it quits now. The basic reason is that it simple cannot install successfully onto my Vista x64 SP2.
The fault may lie in the installer, but however, it was combined into a single EXE making debugging difficult. Not only that, it is extremely hard to remove Nero from the computer cleanly. The is this Nero Cleaner software (by Ahead of course) here:
http://www.nero.com/enu/support-nero8-tools-utilities.html
However, even this fails in my Vista. I spend almost 2 days trying to install, failed, remove, reinstall etc... In the end I simple ask myself. Do I really need Nero? In fact, I do not install ALL the components of Nero. I only mainly uses Recode (which was originally DVD Shrink, and you wonder why its illegal when its free and legal when its now Nero...) and Nero Burning ROM. The rest is simple bloatware for me.
So, after some thoughts, I decided its time to say goodbye to Nero. I no longer need it. Its not really that Vista came with a fantastic burning software, but I found CD Burner XP (Free!) :
http://cdburnerxp.se/
This is actually what I needed to burn files, VCD etc. It even support Bluray.
Of course, I do not forget Recode. I had AnyDVD all the time, so it does not matters. But converting from DVD9 to DVD5 is cool and a good waste of CPU resources. So here we have DVDFab for that:
http://www.dvdfab.com/
Its not all free, but if you wish to use the decryptor only, it is. Its still a good pay compare to Nero 9. Now I have to sell that off to some sucker... :)
Again, its time to boot up Fedora 11 on the classic MS VPC...
If you remember, it totally crashed in Fedora 10 without some tweaking, and yes, as expected, it did so again in F11...
So, before we even talk about the installation, you will need to ensure you select the basic video option, then press [tab] and append "vga=0x32D noreplace-paravirt" to the back and press [enter]. This will allow you to boot up all the way into the installer.
Next, it will complain about disk is not initialize. Well, its because you had not formatted your HDD. thats perfectly normal. Just let Fedora do it.
For me, I needed the common applications and some development, so I selected both the "Office productivity" and " Software development" option during the installation.
Will update this, waiting for it to complete now...
Its becoming inevitable. Many of the newer ROMs on the NDS using R4 (Not R4HD) is giving errors about not able to create save files and quitting. Trying to update it to version 1.18 does help for some, but not all. The solution is to use another firmware. The one I will talk about here is YSMenu.
Now, the trciky part about YSMenu is that the author does not allow premade firmware to be posted online. But I will show you that Maikel's Automater (R4YSAuto) will make it simple.
First you will have to download that from:
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=103879
But you know my style. I always prefer to have everything done for you. So, don't worry about the download first. But for YSMenu, you have no choice. Since I cannot host it, you will have to download from:
http://home.usay.jp/pc/etc/nds/
Its in Japanese, but here is how to do it, use search. Find YSMenu. First link is the summary at the top, next link is the right one. you should be getting "YSMenu0903211700.zip".
Now, grab my prepacked R4YSauto here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?axnniyjnzdx
The main difference is that I had made the R4YSauto works with the latest YSMenu "YSMenu0903211700.zip" while the original requires you to rename it. Well, it will be the same if you use a newer one anyway. In addition, I had also included the latest usrcheat.dat as of 2 June 09.
Now, all you need to do it to unpack the R4YSauto to a directory. Then throw the "YSMenu0903211700.zip" into the same directory and run r4.bat. Answer the question accordingly, basically "R4" and "Firmware" are hte important choices. The rest can varies.
Then you will have you firmware. Unpack it into your MicroSD and its done.

I found out that I was not alone. Many others who sells linux and other software from FSF, GNU or GPL are suspended, banned or otherwise by Ebay.
Here is one case dated back to 2003:

http://www.lawguru.com/cgi/bbs/message.php?i=139125480&view=a
There is even a forums for ebay suspended users:
http://www.modeeworld.com/forums/ebay-suspensions/
I think the whole idea why free software does not take off is because there are organization like Ebay which still probably lives in a well or something.
