This is in answer to a few requests due to
some of my posts in the Music Forum.
1. Open Flashget and select options >
Proxy.
2. Click Add and give your proxy a name
relevant to what you use it for.
3. Select HTTP<get>
4. Enter the proxy address and port
number.
5. Select OK
6. When clicking on a link or copying a
link into Flashget when the "Add new Download" prompt appears you
must select the Advanced tab then from the proxy section select
"HTTP" and select the name of the proxy you wish.
7. Once done select OK and that is it.
This tutorial is only intended for help in
downloading the posts I have posted. It is not a concise Flashget /
Proxy Tutorial.

How to set up a http server running from
you computer
(Either you can set up a basic server
which means you stop at step... or if you want to make a server
with free address you can continue after that step)
1. We are going to use a program called
hfs i like the beta version (2) you will need to download this
program.
Go to
www.rejetto.com/temp/hfs2.0beta23.zip
2. Make a folder where you wish to run it
from for example C:/Program files/hfs or C:/Documents and
settins/Username/My documents/Hfs
3. Move the downloaded zip file into that
folder and extract it.
4. Delete the zip file and KEEP THE OTHER
FILES!!!!!

5. Run the program and it will come up
with a screen that looks like this
user posted image
6. Click the button that says easy mode
(this turns it into expert mode which basicly means you have all
the options)
7. Where it says port change the port to
80 (this can clash with some programs like webcam on msn and maybe
others im not sure) ((the port you choose doesnt really matter 80
is just easier)) Be first to comment this article | Add as favourites (0) | Quote this article on your site | Views: 558 |

When you perform a search for a file in
Windows XP. The default setting is for XP to ONLY return files in
the "Search Results" pane - when they are registered file types to
a program on your PC.
In other words if you are looking for a
file that is NOT registered with an application on your PC, it will
not be found using the default search settings.
However, you can turn off the default by a
quick Tweak of the registry!
Open the Registry editor (type regedit
from the Run command) and navigate to:
HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SYSTEM
CurrentControlSet Control
ContentIndex
Double-Click the value named:
FilterFilesWithUnknownExtensions
..and change the value from 0 to 1
Exit the registry editor and reboot!

If you wanna find some apps, files etc on
rapidshare.de via google, do the following.
Paste this into the google search window
(not the adress bar):
site:rapidshare.de -filetype:zip OR rar
daterange:2453402-2453412
* this searches the site rapidshare.de for
any file that is rar or zip, and
has been indexed between 1-11
February.
dvd site:rapidshare.de -filetype:zip OR
rar daterange:2453402-2453412
* this is the same search but it
specifically searches for "dvd" with the same
search criteria, so any app posted with
the word dvd in it will be found.

First thing to keep in mind: If your
computer hasn't crashed yet, it will in the future! So instead of
waiting for fate to strike, take some precautions now:
1) BACK-UP! Buy some decent DVD-R discs
and put everything useful in them. When you have more useful stuff,
backup again. Do this often.
2) Keep your computer healthy. Use an
antivirus, an anti-spy, and a firewall. Keep them updated. Check
regularly for Windows critical fixes.
3) Don't install software that would do
dangerous things to your hard drive. A boot manager would fall in
this category.
4) Use a registry cleaner before and after
you install or uninstall any software. Many of the problems that
will keep Windows from booting are caused by sloppy software that
mess up your registry. A good registry cleaner is Tune-up
Utilities.
Code:
http://www.tune-up.com/
5) Run chkdsk now and then. Go to
Start> Run. Type chkdsk /F. Press enter.

XP lets you rename files in bulk by simply selecting multiple files within Windows Explorer and pressing the F2 key. When you use this feature, the OS applies the name you enter to the first file and applies the same name with a number in parentheses to the other files you selected (the file extensions remain unchanged).
