They said Windows 7 was just a cosmetic upgrade, a more polished version of Vista with little to offer beyond the new wallpaper.
They couldn’t have been more wrong.
Look beyond the headlines about interface tweaks and you’ll find Windows 7 is crammed with lesser known, but still important, new and enhanced features, which taken together deliver improved performance and productivity, better troubleshooting, stronger security and a whole lot more.
Read on for 50 ways in which Windows 7 will make a real difference to your PC.
1. Problem Steps Recorder
As the local PC guru you’re probably very used to friends and family asking for help with their computer problems, yet having no idea how to clearly describe what’s going on. It’s frustrating, but Microsoft feels your pain, and Windows 7 will include an excellent new solution in the Problem Steps Recorder.
When any app starts misbehaving under Windows 7 then all your friends need do is click Start, type PSR and press Enter, then click Start Record. If they then work through whatever they’re doing then the Problem Steps Recorder will record every click and keypress, take screen grabs, and package everything up into a single zipped MHTML file when they’re finished, ready for emailing to you. It’s quick, easy and effective, and will save you hours of troubleshooting time.

Ashampoo Magical Snap 2 v2.40
Ashampoo Magical Snap 2 is a screen capture tool with powerful and intuitive editing capabilities. It enables you to capture virtually anything on your screen - all or part of program windows, websites, the desktop and anything else displayed on your computer’s monitor.
Then you can use the editing tools to enhance the screenshot and turn it into a really attractive image.
Interactive guides show you how to perform every operation. All features are also so simple to use that you can get results really fast. For example, the unique Mouse Tools editing tools display their options next to the mouse pointer so that you don’t have to search in menus. You have to try it to appreciate it, Mouse Tools are truly cool and make image editing amazingly easy!
Scrolling Window Capture
The latest version of the popular Ashampoo Magical Snap screen capture program introduces a radical improvement: The ability to capture all the contents of a Window, including the parts that are currently scrolled off screen. This is something that most capture programs are incapable of and it is achieved with an advanced new capture technology.
Scrolling window capture works both with the content of web browsers and the content windows of most application programs. Using it couldn’t be easier – you just select the window to capture and Ashampoo Magical Snap 2 automatically “scrolls” the window contents into a single captured image.
Multiple monitor support
Another major improvement is full support for capturing images on systems with multiple monitors. Many other screen capture programs cannot do this or produce unsatisfactory results. Ashampoo Magical Snap 2 automatically identifies multi-monitor systems and captures screenshots perfectly from any monitor.
Improved image editing with new tools
The editing capabilities of the new version have also been thoroughly updated and enhanced. Now you can turn your screenshots into professional-looking images in no time.
Enhancements here include new functions (Flip, Mirror, Drop Shadow, Grayscale, Pencil), new and improved Mouse tools (Callout, Line, Highlight Area, Marker, Select, Draw Text, Arrow, Eraser), radically improved print support (DPI settings, large images, wide desktops, entire websites etc.) and new capture effects that you can apply on the fly while capturing your screenshots.
Enhanced usability and user interface
Ashampoo Magical Snap 2 is also easier to use than ever, with a much more powerful and intuitive user interface. Almost every aspect of the program has been overhauled. Improvements include better support for multiple captures, more hotkeys, better zoom and scroll features (mouse wheel, keys, cache), separate Undo/Redo for every capture, drag resize, easier configuration and much more.
Highlights:
- Capture windows with off-screen content
- Capture:
o Entire text documents
o Entire spreadsheets
o Entire web pages and websites
- Full support for multiple monitors
- Full support for Windows Vista™
- New capture effects
- Much easier and faster to use
- Interactive guides show you how
- New and improved editing tools
- Enhanced user interface

Bubble(Fastest browser with complete privacy)
Bubbles is an application platform, based on Browser technologies. It detaches Web Applications from the classic Browser and offers them with the familiar accessibility, capabilities and always-on nature of Desktop applications
What’s a Site-Specific Bubbles (SSB) ?
These are a browser that is focused on a specific site, and adds features to that site. Less is often more, why treat your email the same way you treat driving directions to Aunt Betsy. SSBs also focus on making your frequently used sites more accessible. In Windows this means your SSBs are running all the time, are a click a way - on the system tray and are generally more lightweight and, well, just yummy. SSBs will usually use an existing browsing engine and extend it with new features.
What do you mean by accessible?
We mean that your important stuff is there for you. Remember when things like Email used to be desktop applications (Outlook, Thunderbird), Bubbles tries to make the new web-based applications more like that.
Create shortcuts to your frequently used web applications right on your desktop:
It will always be waiting for you on the system tray:
Want to Alt-Tab to your app, no problem:
Support for drag and drop of local files
Remember how dragging a photo into Picasa imports that photo into an album? Think for a second what happens when you drag that photo into a browser… right, the browser shows you that photo. Bubbles allows web-sites to accept files that are dropped on them, so our example Flickr extension for Bubbles makes uploading new photos as easy as dragging them into the Flickr Bubble!
System tray icon and context-menu
Since your favorite web-application now has residence in your system tray, we may as well put it to use. The system tray icon can be changed in real-time to indicate different statuses (new email, awaiting chat message, etc). Right clicking the icon opens up a Context Menu which, just like with a Desktop application, allows you to quickly start actions (Compose mail, goto main page, See friend list, etc)
Notifications
Notifications are an integral part of having a fluent user experience with your frequently used applications. Remember how Outlook briefly flashed you with a little window telling you new mail has arrived, how calendar alerts popped on the screen and how any application that wanted to tell you something had a way of doing it…
Web applications have always had two issues that stopped them from providing users with this sort of experience. The first is that they aren’t always running - what if you don’t have a tab with GMail open right now. The second problem is that browsers don’t really let web applications to do much outside of the browser window itself.
Bubbles overcomes both of these problems, making it a fantastic platform to provide notifications with. Your important Bubbles are running all the time, so when new data flows in (e.g. new mai, new story, new bid) - the user can be notified. The second is an API for full HTML notifications letting Web applications popup fully customizable notification windows, the ones users have grown to expect:

How to manage styles
How to manage styles
Click on the Stylish icon and choose Manage Styles. This screen will list the styles you have installed. You can edit your styles to give it a different name or to modify its behaviour. You can disable styles, which will keep them in your list but make that have no effect, and re-enable them. You can also uninstall styles, which will remove their effects and remove them from the list.
Sometimes it's useful to turn off all styles to see if a style is causing a problem with the display of the site. Rather than disabling all styles or disabling Stylish itself, you can tell Stylish to turn everything off by clicking the Stylish icon and choosing Turn all styles off. To turn them back on, click on the Stylish icon and choose Turn all styles on.
User styles explained
User styles are pieces of code that affect the way websites and the interface of certain programs look and feel. User styles can do things like remove ads, provide a different colour scheme, and change fonts.
Programs that support user styles
Mozilla-based programs like Firefox and Thunderbird can use Stylish to manage their user styles. This is the recommended way to use user styles. When used in Mozilla-based programs, user styles can also affect the program's user interface.
Mozilla-based programs also provide built-in support for user styles with the userContent.css and userChrome.css files. There is no user interface to these files, so managing multiple user styles is difficult. Additionally, you must restart the program every time you add, change, or remove user styles. This is why Stylish is recommended.
Other web browsers such as Internet Explorer and Opera support user styles, but do not have interfaces for them either. They do not allow user styles to change the program user interface.
PimP The InterNet <<0..0>>

Using Stylish
Stylish is an extension for Mozilla-based programs like Firefox and Thunderbird. It allows for easy management of user styles. It is the recommended way to install user styles.
How to install Stylish
Stylish requires a Mozilla-based program like Firefox or Thunderbird. To get Firefox, visit getfirefox.com.
If you're installing Stylish in a web browser, go to the install page, click "Add to Firefox", then follow the instructions.. If you're installing Stylish in Thunderbird, go to the Thunderbird install page and follow the instructions there.
How to find user styles
The largest collection of user styles is available on userstyles.org. You can browse this site to find styles you may like. While surfing another site, you can also click on the Stylish icon and choose Find styles for this site.
User Styles
User styles let you change the way your browser displays web pages.
How to use the style rules listed on this page
- To use a style on all sites: use Stylish (a Firefox extension), or manually put the style in a user style sheet.
- To use a style on a specific site: use per-site rules (Firefox only) with the methods above.
How to install styles...
from userstyles.org using a web browser
On the style's page, you should see a button labelled "Load into Stylish". Click this button, then click Install. The style will be applied immediately. Some styles, especially those that affect the user interface, may require that you restart your web browser.
using something other than a web browser (like Thunderbird)
Copy the style's code to your clipboard, click the Stylish icon, click Write style, and click Blank style. Paste the code in the large text area, give the style a name, and click Install. Styles installed in such a way will never be checked for updates.

Rapidshare Tutorial :===== FREE MODE
Dear Leechers,
Seen lot of rapidshare Videos here, hence hereZ a Tutorial for ALL of u to download Multiple Vids at Same time (Download managers cant do that). Thus saving u precious moments waiting to hook again to RS.
U dont need a Premium account unless u have more than a 5MBPS CONNECTION!! For a 2 mbps, u will get a 250kbps, which will dwnload abt 700 mb in an hour. I wud say 2mbps is pretty fast for dwnlding needz.
Most of Us dont have a premium RS account, Normally use Free mOde.
But, U can dwnld multiple files from FREE mode also.
That is, From FREE account U can dwnld more than 1 file at same INSTANT
U can use this tutorial for RS/MU/Depositfiles and other hosting sites who have restrictions on multiple file download.
The idea of downloading is that, In free mode only one person/PC downloads. This is identified from the PCz IP address.
If ur computer has 2 or 3 IP addresses at same time.. Rapidshare site will look at U as 2 or 3 different Personz/PCz.
But most of u agree that a internet connection gives only 1 IP address at a single time.
So, how to get 2 or 3 IP addresses at same time??
Herez where this Tutorial will help u in getting 2-3 IP addresses at same time.
I will show u 2 IP addresses at same time... U can improvise for more than 2
Step 1:
U have to use different Web Browsers. One Browser will give u 1 IP address.
check ur IP at cmyip.com
Step 2:
For eg: Mozilla FireFox and Flock
Step 3:
Use FF to connect to rapidshare link and start downloading.....
Step 4:
For Flock, u have to do something so that u need to get Different IP address. Hence use a proxy, and not just a proxy, U have to use a fast proxy.
For Flock use FoxyProxy.
FoxyProxy is an addon for FF/Flock.
Using softwarez to obtain Proxy, only find the fast proxies and note the Proxy address and port. From Software settings, set to fast proxies, coz u dont wanna loose speed
Step 5:
Fill in the Proxy address into the Flock Foxyproxy addon and u r good to go.
check ur IP at cmyip.com . U will find it different than tthe one u checked at Step 1.
This serves as an Proxy address giving u a different IP address for U.
Start ur Download.

Hide an archive inside a picture with no special programs
A short tutorial to show people how its possible to hide files within a picture file (especially png and jpeg files) and all you'll need is a program like WinRAR.
Firstly you'll need to find two things: the first is a picture that you'll use to hide your file in, the second is the actual file you want to hide.
Put both in the same folder, open a command prompt and navigate there.
Once there you'll need to put your file that you want to hide inside a zip file (rar or zip will work just fine, put a password or whatever if you want too). After this type the following into the command prompt:
Code:
Quote:
copy /b display.png + secret_message.rar fake.png
where display.png is the picture in which you want to hide the file, secret_message.rar is the file you want to hide and fake.png is the file name that you want the result to be created as.
After this is done open the newly created image file in your paint package and verify that it opens correctly. To see the hidden file all you need to do is open it in your favorite compression program and your done! One hidden file that can be uploaded to image sites and so forth.
As I said you can also put a password on the rar hidden rar file in order to add extra protection.
Enjoy!

Windows XP Shutdown and Power Off Tip:
On some computers, by default, Windows XP doesn't power off the computer when you tell it to shut down. However, if your computer is relatively new, it can probably by shut completely off by WinXP.

The next time you choose "Shut Down" from the Start Menu, your computer should shut down completely and then power off.

How to avoid autoplay of CD ? Way I like best tip.
Hey this time no registry trick even though there are ways in registry to do it. In earlier operating systems only those CD that had autorun.inf file in their root directory were able to execute on its own but with advent of WINDOWS XP it has become possible with just about anything. Well sometimes it is good but there are other times when you want to avoid this part of automation. What would I do. Simply press SHIFT key when you enter a CD in your CD drive. It won't Auto play. For those of you, who do want a registry hack. Here it is:
Open Registry and navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\policies\Explorer] and look for key "NoDriveTypeAutoRun" and set its value to 185 (decimal). This would stop autoplay.

Customizing Windows Explorer Context menu (right click menu in windows explorer)
Ever wondered how does the right click menu (which is actually a context menu) work ? For example, when I right click in windows explorer, I see an option which says "open command window here". Do You know why I see this ? Well I see this because I have following entries in my registry.
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\cmd]
@="Open Command Window Here"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\cmd\command]
@="C:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.exe /k cd "%1""
If You have never used a tweaking utility and have newly installed Windows XP, You would not see this option. You would have to navigate to [[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive] go and create two subkeys ("cmd" and within that "command" and would have to put the text "Open Command Window Here" without quotes in default string value of "cmd" key and the text "C:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.exe /k CD"%1"" without quotes in default string value of command key). After this You need to REBOOT for these changes to take effect.
Trick is in adding similar entries for other applications as well even though its much harder to come with ideas about what to put in the context menu!!!!
