This is an old feature (or actually lack thereof) of Gmail that I think can be exploited for use in avoiding spam when subscribing to mailing lists and when sharing email addresses. Use dots!

As another year goes by, another form of P2P file-sharing seems to disappear, or start fading away. If I were to look back at these days 10 years from now, I’d probably say that these are the “dark days” of music. Not because of the lack of decent music, or music sharing services, but […]

Torrentspy.com is one of my favorite destinations for checking out if the latest episodes of my favorite shows, such as Smallville, have been seeded (cable operators here in my place air episodes months–even a full year–after they are shown on their home networks). Imagine my surprise when I tried to access the site and was […]

The good people at Hacklabs have put together a 10 step guide, that I think that even computer-illiterate users will be able to follow, to get past the WGA check in most, if not all, Microsoft applications that require validation.
1. Download Orca (mirror) and install it.
2. Open WindowsDefender.msi with Orca
3. Go to the “CustomAction” table […]

Even though Firefox 2 was only officially released yesterday, Gina Trapani, from LifeHacker has already put together a short article with some quick tweaks for everyone’s favorite Open-Source browser.

If you are one of those people who prefer to code rather than develop pixel-perfect buttons and graphics for the website you’ll find this link quite useful. Basically it allows you to select from 19 pre-made buttons, change the font type, color and style, and the text (of course). And you can even preview how […]

After owning a Sony Vaio laptop for almost 2 years I accidentally stumbled upon a “hidden”, almost completely useless trick. When you try to adjust the sound or monitor brightness via the function keys after activating the adjustment menu you can regulate it by either pressing the “-” or “+” Function keys (the default), or […]

If you are in any way similar to me (as a technology lover) you have certainly had your “services” requested by loving members of your family, or friends, to “repair” people’s computers. One of the amazing things you discover when you go repair one of those said computers is that they are usually more spyware […]

Speedtest.net is now live (out of beta) and offers simple, one-click connection speed testing. The site even gives bloggers and forum posters easy links to images of the speed test results generated. For example, here’s from a test I just did a while ago.

Not really fast, eh? But I get by with 512 Kbps (or […]
