Removing Autorun.inf Virus & Viruses that uses Autorun.INFI had seen many systems infected with "Autorun.inf Virus & Viruses that uses Autorun.INF"this is solution to remove above virus:Autorun.INF is usually used by CD Installers to autoplay their installations but Hard disks by default should not have AUTORUN.INF in the drive.Now, it is possible that your computer is infected by those viruses if you try to display the content of the your computer through command prompt,using the dir /ah command—-The said virus hides itself inside a folder named Recycled. The folder has a hidden/system/read-only attribute, that’s why you can’t see it if you will use the Search window. When your system is infected by the said virus, it infects every drive connected to your PC by dropping VCAB.DLL to the internet temporary folder and creating the CTFMON.EXE to folder Recyled & AUTORUN.INF to the root directory of every drive. That’s why when you connect your USB sticks to the infected PC it will be infected immediately, the USB disks will be the new carrier for the virus. The program runs every time you start your computer because it copy itself in the Startup folder of the Start Menu. It also run every time your insert the infected USB disk and it triggers every time you Double-Click the infected drive (bcoz of the AUTORUN.INF). The virus infects .EXEs and .DLLs.To check if your system is infected by the said virus without using an antivirus, do the following steps:Go to command prompt.Type CD\ in drive C to go the root directoryType DIR /AH and press ENTER key. This will display all hidden files in your drive CIf you see a file AUTORUN.INF and a folder Recycled, then your system is infected.Try doing this to your USB drive and check if your USB stick contains the same folder and AUTORUN.INF, if it does then your system is really infected..To manually remove it (but i’m not recommending it especially if the infections of Bacalid is very high try using an anti-virus such as McAfee or TrendMicro’s PCCillin) follow the following steps (This is the step I take when i repair my computer without an internet connection. Note you should understand what you’re about to do, you try it at your own risk!)Boot your system in SafemodeGo to command prompt, in Drive C do the following commands.Type -> ATTRIB -H -R -S AUTORUN.INF then press enterType -> DEL AUTORUN.INF then press enterType -> ATTRIB -H -R -S Recycled then press enterIn Windows Explorer in Safemode, remove the folder Recycled in drive C use Shift-Delete to delete the folder.Repeat Step 3 to 6 for all drives of your system including the USB drive.Search for CTFMON.EXE in your system using the Search of Windows found in Start Menu. If you find a file that is not located in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32, delete it immediately. Dont forget to empty the recycle bin afterwards (Usually the virus will copy itself in the Startup folder of the Startmenu. Check if the file is present there and delete it then.)
Set Permissions for Shared Files and FoldersSharing of files and folders can be managed in two ways. If you chose simplified file sharing, your folders can be shared with everyone on your network or workgroup, or you can make your folders private. (This is how folders are shared in Windows 2000.) However, in Windows XP Professional, you can also set folder permissions for specific users or groups. To do this, you must first change the default setting, which is simple file sharing. To change this setting, follow these steps:•Open Control Panel, click Tools, and then click Folder Options. •Click the View tab,and scroll to the bottom of the Advanced Settings list. •Clear the Use simple file sharing (Recommended) check box. •To manage folder permissions, browse to the folder in Windows Explorer, right–click the folder, and then click Properties. Click the Security tab, and assign permissions, such as Full Control, Modify, Read, and/or Write, to specific users.You can set file and folder permissions only on drives formatted to use NTFS, and you must be the owner or have been granted permission to do so by the owner.

Voice over Internet Protocol:Voice-over-Internet protocol is a protocol optimized for the transmission of voice through the Internet or other packet-switched networks. VoIP is often used abstractly to refer to the actual transmission of voice (rather than the protocol implementing it). This latter concept is also referred to as IP telephony, Internet telephony, voice over broadband, broadband telephony, and broadband phone.VoIP providers may be viewed as commercial realizations of the experimental Network Voice Protocol (1973) invented for the ARPANET providers. Some cost savings are due to using a single network to carry voice and data, especially where users have underused network capacity that can carry VoIP at no additional cost. VoIP-to-VoIP phone calls are sometimes free, while VoIP calls connecting to public switched telephone networks (VoIP-to-PSTN) may have a cost that is borne by the VoIP user. Voice-over-IP systems carry telephony signals as digital audio, typically reduced in data rate using speech data compression techniques, encapsulated in a data-packet stream over IP.There are two types of PSTN-to-VoIP services: Direct inward dialing (DID) and access numbers. DID will connect a caller directly to the VoIP user, while access numbers require the caller to provide an extension number for the called VoIP user.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VoIP
Slow ShutdownSome people have noticed that they are experiencing a really slow shutdown after installing Windows XP Home or Professional. Although this can be caused a number of ways, the most clear cut one so far is happening on systems with an NVidia card installed with the latest set of drivers. A service called NVIDIA Driver Helper Service is loading up on start up and for whatever reason doesn't shut itself down properly. The service isn't needed and can also increase the amount of memory available to your system. Here is how to disable it.1: Go into your Control Panel2: Select Administrative Tools and then click on Services3: Right click on the file "NVIDIA Driver Helper Service" and then select STOP.4: To stop this loading up every time you boot up your PC Right click it again and select properties - then where the option "Startup Type" is shown - make sure it is set at Manual like we have shown in the image below.
Rename a Series of Files
When you download photos from your digital camera, they often have unrecognizable names. You can rename several similar files at once with the following procedure. This also works for renaming other types of files.
1.Open the My Pictures folder. (Click Start, and then click My Pictures.) Or open another folder containing files that you want to rename. 2.Select the files you want to rename. If the files you want are not adjacent in the file list, press and hold CTRL, and then click each item to select it. 3.On the File menu, click Rename. 4.Type the new name, and then press ENTER.
All of the files in the series will be named in sequence using the new name you type. For example, if you type Birthday, the first will be named Birthday and subsequent files in the series will be named Birthday (1), Birthday (2), and so on. To specify the starting number for the series, type the starting number in parentheses after the new file name. The files in the series will be numbered in sequence starting with the number you type. For example, if you type Birthday (10), the other files will be named Birthday (11), Birthday (12), and so on.
My Computer Won't Shut Down Itself After Installing XPThere are a number of users who are noticing that their PC will no longer automatically power down/shut off without pressing the power off button on the computers unlike in Windows Me/95/2000. There could be a number of reasons for this - but the main one seems to be that ACPI is not enabled on the computer or in Windows XP. Here is how to try that out:
Click - Start - Control Panel - Performance and Maintenance - Power Options Tab
Then click APM - Enable Advanced Power Management Support
Disable Error Reporting1. Open Control Panel 2. Click on Performance and Maintenance. 3. Click on System. 4. Then click on the Advanced tab 5. Click on the error-reporting button on the bottom of the windows. 6. Select Disable error reporting. 7. Click OK 8. Click OK

online insurance quotes

Five Ways to Cut Auto Insurance Costs this Summer (Carteret County News-Times)
Online insurance refers to provision of buying and selling insurance online. Insurance is subject to Utmost Good Faith, which makes it very convenient for people to conduct the business online, as both the parties have absolute duties to tell all the facts which are material, else the contract are void.
Conducting a full transaction of insurance is tough for most of the commercial businesses, but many types of personal insurances are conducted online including but not limited to Motor (car) insurance, travel insurance and medical insurance.
Many of the online insurance providers, just provide the quote online and the rest of the process is done manually, this is very convenient for cases where the physical paper is important to complete a process. An example is car insurance in Dubai / car insurance in UAE, where it is mandatory to give Arabic certificate of insurance before registering the car. The certificate should bring physical stamp of the issuing company, hence it is virtually impossible to complete the complete transaction online. hence websites like Tameen4u.com provides you online insurance quotes and complete the rest of the procedure offline.

Insure.com: 12 Things You Don't Know About Car Insurance That Could Cost YouMonday August 25, 8:00 am ET
DARIEN, Ill., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- What you don't know about your car insurance policy could be draining your wallet right now. Insure.com, Inc. (Nasdaq: NSUR - News) has revealed 12 factors that may be costing you money.
ADVERTISEMENT
1. You'll pay for your friend's bad driving
If your friend borrows your car and crashes it, you'll have to file a claim with your insurance company. You'll have to pay any deductible that applies and your rates could go up as a result of your claim, especially if you have made other recent claims.
2. Your personal property in your car isn't covered by your auto insurance
Stolen or damaged items like compact discs aren't covered by your car insurance.
3. You may be entitled to payment for sales tax and registration fees for a new car
Most states require insurers to pay sales taxes on total loss settlements. Some states require the insurer to pay it at the time of loss while other states require it to be paid only if you purchase a replacement vehicle within a certain time period. Make your request for a sales tax reimbursement no matter where you live.
4. You may be entitled to a diminished value claim in some states
Diminished value is based on the idea that any car that has been in an accident, regardless of how well the repairs are done, is worth less than the exact same car that hasn't been in an accident. However, most states allow car insurers to use policy language that officially disallows diminished value claims.
There's one way you may be entitled to a diminished value claim: If someone else hits you and you make a damage claim on that person's insurance. That's called a third-party claim and it's possible to get diminished value damages as a third party.
5. You may be able to "stack" your coverage
Stacking uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage means you can collect payment more than once within the same auto policy or across two auto policies. There are two scenarios for stacking: First, if you have multiple cars, you can collect the limit of your UM/UIM policy to cover full payment for damages. Second, if you have more than one policy with UM/UIM coverage, you can make a claim under each policy until all your damages are recovered. Check the language of your policy.
6. Making a claim could increase your car insurance rates, but by how much?
When an insurance company decides to raise your premiums because you make a claim, it doesn't follow any hard and fast rules; many factors are involved. For example, if you make a claim and have a birthday before renewal time, your birthday might bump you into a higher risk category along with the claim.
Some insurance companies have "accident forgiveness" guidelines. When you buy or renew your policy, ask how to qualify for accident forgiveness.
7. If you don't drive much, "usage-based" car insurance could save you money
"Usage-based" car insurance allows you to buy coverage based on how much you actually drive. If you don't drive much, this can save you up to 60 percent on your insurance. Progressive is the first insurance company to offer "pay-as-you-drive" policies through its MyRate program. Your mileage will be measured by a wireless device installed in a car port.
If your insurance company doesn't offer usage-based coverage, inquire about "low-mileage discounts."
8. Your credit history may affect your car insurance premium
Car insurers believe that your credit history is an indicator of whether you are going to make a claim, and price your insurance policy accordingly where states allow it.
9. You must officially cancel your insurance policy when you switch insurers
You can cancel your coverage at any time by notifying the company in writing of your intended date of termination. Most consumers assume that if they decide to terminate the policy at the end of the coverage period, they can simply ignore the bill. Insurance companies don't see it that way. They will send you another bill for the next premium payment, and when you don't pay it, the company can cancel you for nonpayment, which goes on your credit record.
10. You can wait to add your teenager to your policy until he or she is licensed
In most cases, insurance companies don't require you to add your teenager to your policy until the teen has his or her driver's license. The exception may be if you are in a high-risk insurance pool; you may then have to add your child when they receive their permit.
11. Paying in installments will usually increase your overall bill
"Fractional premium" fees are usually charged when you divide your annual premium payment into installments rather than pay for a year of coverage all at once. It can be as little as a few dollars per payment, but the more you break it down, the more it adds up. When you apply for the policy, ask what the fees are for paying in installments. If you can, pay your annual premium all at once.
12. Your car model affects your premium, but by how much?
Auto insurers have a premium-rating system for every car model, usually based on "Vehicle Series Ratings" (VSRs) received from the Insurance Services Office (ISO). This rating indicates how comparatively expensive your vehicle should be to insure. Factors include susceptibility to theft and typical claims losses for the vehicle.
If you are shopping for a new car, contact your insurance company and ask about the premium difference among the cars you are considering.

MESOTHELIOMA treatment options

A rare survival story in a brush with a rare and deadly cancer (MESOTHELIOMA):
Heather Von St. James calls herself "the poster child for hope after mesothelioma." She has been disease free for 2 1/2 years after a radical surgery and treatment for the asbestos-related cancer -- mesothelioma.
Dying was not an optionwhen mesothelioma attacted, Heather Von St. James says as her 3-year-old daughter, Lily, rushes in and out of the dining room, climbing on her lap, then dashing off again. ¶ But dying was a terrifying possibility when doctors found a lump the size of an orange in Von St. James's left lung when Lily was only 3 months old. The diagnosis was Mesothelioma -- a rare and often fatal form of lung cancer caused by exposure to asbestos.
Now, just over 2 1/2 years after undergoing radical surgery to remove her left lung, the lining around her heart, half of her diaphragm, her sixth rib and a few lymph nodes to be on the safe side, all traces of the cancer(Mesothelioma) are gone.
"I claim cured," says Von St. James.
Dr. David Sugarbaker, who heads the International Mesothelioma Program at Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston, said Von St. James is a shining example of the progress he is beginning to see in the fight against a disease that traditionally carried a maximum survival of 12 to 18 months.
"I am the poster child for hope after meso," the 39-year-old Roseville woman said.
Sugarbaker, who treated Von St. James, is only slightly more circumspect. "What I can say is that right now in this present moment she is disease-free," he said.
About 2,000 cases of mesothelioma are diagnosed in the United States each year, according to the National Cancer Institute. Unusually high rates of the disease have been reported among men from Minnesota's Iron Range since the late 1980s. The state Department of Health has so far identified 59 cases among mine workers and is planning a study with the University of Minnesota aimed at determining what might have caused the illness.
Sugarbaker said the disease has a 20- to 35-year latency period and traditionally has been diagnosed in people with direct exposure to asbestos, but doctors are seeing more patients with secondhand, nonoccupational exposure
