You can use your USB pen drive as your computer's RAM

Have you ever thought that you can use your USB pen drive as your computer's RAM? I will tell you how to do this. It is very very simple. The fact that it is so simple is because Windows 8,7 and Windows Vista both comes with a function called "ReadyBoost" which allows us to use our USB as System Virtual Memory. There is nothing much to do here. Just insert the Formatted Pen drive, Select Properties and go to the "ReadyBoost" tab, from there select "Use This Device", select the maximum memory available and click on apply. this ought to make it as a virtual system memory.

Don't Use VLC on Laptops or Notebooks

Don't Use VLC on Laptops or Notebooks

If you purchased new Laptop, Notebook of Dell, lenovo, HP or any other company, ..... don't use and install vlc media player.VLC can damage your lappy's speakers and Hence, it is not covered under warranty." even if it is under warranty.

Reason behind this:
The VLC player has a capacity to boost the volume upto 200-400%. The speakers installed on notebooks are of 4 Ohms speakers and can take volume only upto 100%. In case there is any rise in volume above 100%,the brass caps on the speakers are burnt which in turn damages the speakers.
Hence, it is not covered under warranty.
You can use any other player...... but not vlc.

How safe is your password?

How safe is your password?

The first step in protecting your online privacy is creating a safe password - i.e. one that a computer program or persistent individual won't easily be able to guess in a short period of time. To help you choose a secure password, we've created a feature that lets you know visually how safe your password is as soon as you create it.

Tips for creating a secure password:

Include punctuation marks and/or numbers.
Mix capital and lowercase letters.
Include similar looking substitutions, such as the number zero for the letter 'O' or '$' for the letter 'S'.
Create a unique acronym.
Include phonetic replacements, such as 'Luv 2 Laf' for 'Love to Laugh'.

Things to avoid:
Don't reuse passwords for multiple important accounts, such as Gmail and online banking.
Don't use a password that is listed as an example of how to pick a good password.
Don't use a password that contains personal information (name, birth date, etc.)
Don't use words or acronyms that can be found in a dictionary.
Don't use keyboard patterns (asdf) or sequential numbers (1234).
Don't make your password all numbers, uppercase letters or lowercase letters.
Don't use repeating characters (aa11).
Tips for keeping your password secure:
Never tell your password to anyone (this includes significant others, roommates, parrots, etc.).
Never write your password down.
Never send your password by email.
Periodically test your current password and change it to a new one.
