Many programs put an icon in the system tray or notification area for easy and quick access, besides providing some progress indication or notification when needed. But not everybody appreciate the importance of systray. If you feel that notification system tray area is of no use to use, and you want to recover the bottom right space to make more room for Windows Taskbar, it’s possible to turn off and disable system tray with a simple registry hack.
1. Click on Start button.
2. In Windows XP, click Run and then type regedit and hit ENTER. In Windows Vista, type regedit into Start Search and hit ENTER.
3. Navigate to the following registry key in Registry Editor:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\
Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
4. Right click on Explorer, and then select New -> DWORD (32-bit) Value (DWORD Value in Windows XP). Type NoTrayItemsDisplay as its value name.
Skip this step is NoTrayItemsDisplay registry entry is already available. Note that is NoTrayItemsDisplay, and not NoTrayItemDisplay.
5. Double click on NoTrayItemsDisplay, and set the value data to 1.
6. Log off and log on again or restart computer to make the change effective.
Once set, all program, system and application icons will be hidden and does not been shown. Don’t worry, the applications are still running as usual, just that the icons are hidden. The only thing left is the clock, as shown in figure below.
To re-enable and bring back the notification area or system tray to the display, just delete the NoTrayItemsDisplay registry key, or change the value data for the key to 0. Beside, if you suddenly lose or cannot find all your icons on the system tray (it’s different from missing icons in system tray notification area), try searching for NoTrayItemsDisplay registry key at above and any location, and if found, set its value to 0.

Sony Ericsson has introduced its new clever Sony Ericsson MH907, which the company claims as the first ever motion activated headphones that sense the user’s body contact, thanks to Sony Ericsson’s SensMe Control technology. With the technology, user can start enjoying music by simply plug in both earbuds, and pause by removing 1 earphone, simply reinsert it in to begin listening to music again (same process applies to answer and end calls). So users can’t accidentally answer a call while their handset is in pocket or bag, compatible with most Sony Ericsson phones with a fast port connector.
“With the MH907 consumers can pocket their phone but still stay connected all day, every day by simply plugging in or removing their earbuds – there is no need for a remote control or any buttons,” said Jacob Sten, Senior Vice President for SEMC Accessories. “At Sony Ericsson we think it is very important to listen to what our customer needs and introducing the world’s first ever motion activated headphones highlights our commitment to offer our customers a complete Communications Entertainment experience. The MH907 supports our realigned brand strategy, which aims to build a fun, playful and inclusive interaction with consumers.”
With Clear Audio experience, Sony Ericsson MH907 (size: 164cm long ; weight: 25.32g) delivers superior stereo sound quality, allowing users to enjoy their favorite music as it’s meant to be heard.
The new sleek, stylish Sony Ericsson MH907 motion activated headphones that offered in yellow/white and titan chrome colours is expected to be available soon for €39 or approximately $55.

There is no need for the trader to perform manual calculations as the platform has a system that delivers continuous updates.
No need to twist our arm to get a confession: we absolutely enjoy seeing ultra-complex hardware getting dissected bit by bit. But sometimes — particularly on cold and unwelcoming mornings with no coffee in the cupboard — we prefer to keep things simple by just cracking open a shockingly rudimentary MP3 player.
The spartan Sansa Clip+, which you may know as the Sansa Clip plus a microSD slot, turned out to be a doddle to undress, and its insides were about as uncomplicated as they come. Two SanDisk chips dominate the miniature motherboard, and the fabled marathon-running battery also makes an appearance. If you’re not 1) disgusted or 2) confounded by the details we just discussed, you owe it to yourself to check out all the bare naked circuitry in the read link.
Windows 7 Beta 1 (build 7000) is now available for free download. However, Microsoft has not yet officially launch the beta program or customer preview program for general public yet, so there is no activation product key available yet. For Windows 7 enthusiasts who intends to use Windows 7 beyond the 30-day evaluation period aka activation grace period, other than rearm method and frankenbuild+OEM BIOS emulation method, the best bet is to use Windows 7 activation crack which disable WPA.
pembros, a hacker who developed the popular TimerLock activation crack for Windows Vista, has compiled an executable, TimerNuke, that run a batch command script to disable the activation process in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008. TimerNuke, also known as Windows 7 & 2008 Activation Disabler, actually does not stop the activation grace period countdown clock. Instead, it disables and removes several several services and files related to software licensing in order to bypass and skip the activation requirement.
What TimerNuke does is that when executed, it stops and changes the startup type of sppsvc (Software Protection), sppuinotify (SPP Notification Service) and SLUINotify (SL UI Notification Service) services to disable. Then, the TimerNuke simply takes ownership and full control permissions on the following files, before backing them up and finally deleting them away.
%SYSPATH%\SLLUA.exe
%SYSPATH%\sppsvc.exe
%SYSPATH%\SLUI.exe
%SYSPATH%\sppuinotify.dll
%SYSPATH%\SLUINotify.dll
Download TimerNukeSetup.zip (mirror) TimerNukeSetup.zip or download from MDL Forum.
Current Version: 1.0.5.0 Final 1.0.5.0 BETA
Once the Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 is been nuked and cracked with TimerNuke, Windows will stop asking user to activate. The activation status and product ID becomes not available or unknown. Hence, the Windows may run forever without activation permanently.
Activation Status after Crack by TimerNuke
As an added bonus, the crack may also remove expiry date timebomb of beta and RC releases of Windows 7, although the TimerNuke crack does not specifically target to remove the time bomb. Who would want to use beta build when RTM build is released anyway?
TimerNuke version 1.0.5.0 supports both 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64) editions of Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7. It supports at least up to Windows 7 Beta build 7000. However, it likely supports to crack the final RTM release of Windows 7 if the product activation module in the OS is not significantly changed.
To uninstall TimerNuke and reset, restore or return your computer activation state to original default, use the TimerNuke uninstall script.
Windows 7 pre-beta release has been leaked to Internet for free download, however, without a valid product key to activate the Windows 7, the system can only run for 30 days maximum, or up to 120 days with rearm hack.
Luckily, Windows Vista beta and RC product key can be used to activate Windows 7 beta version too (at least working on both Windows 7 build version 6801 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64) editions. However, not all people is storing such an old information or email dated from 2 years ago.
While it’s possible to search for a valid product key using Google search engine, however, most of it may have been blacklisted or not working with Windows 7. But all hope is not lost, as it appears that some product key for Windows 7 pre-release preview (pre-beta version) have been leaked for free usage too.
Here’s a list of 15 Multiple Activation Key (MAK) which is the genuine legit product key for Windows 7 activation. Each product key can be used for unlimited number of client system activation, unlike a Windows Vista beta or release candidate key which limited to activate up to 10 copies of installed system.

Remember that Gateway QX2800 we peeked back in July? Looks like Acer’s finally issuing its own version of the nettop here at IFA with the introduction of the Aspire Revo 3600. Design wise, everything is pretty much the same as on the original AspireRevo, with the major differences coming on the inside.
Rather than packing a paltry 1.6GHz Atom 230, Acer has outfitted this bugger with a dual-core Atom 330, NVIDIA’s Ion graphics technology, 4GB of DDR2 RAM, an HDMI socket and VESA mount compatibility. There’s no word on an expected price, release date or OS, but we’re hoping to get our mitts on the unit itself as well as those missing details when Berlin opens its doors to tech lovers across the globe here in just a few hours.

Windows Mobile 6.1 has SMS (text message) threading feature, which commonly known as conversation thread mode made famous by Gmail. With SMS conversation threading enabled, the SMS will be grouped into a style similar to IM (instant messaging) chat, with sent SMS text messages appearing in both Sent Items and Inbox.
The SMS threading feature in enabled and turned on by default in all Windows Mobile 6.1 (WM6.1) powered Pocket PC Phone device such as HTC P3400 Gene and HTC Touch Diamond. Although conversation thread may be useful in clarity and easiness to read the related text messages in series, but not all users preferring the new format of reading the text messages.
To disable and turn off the SMS threading or the text messages conversation mode in Windows Mobile 6.1 device, simply install a Registry Editor (such as CoRegEditor or PHM Registry Editor, see also how to install PHM RegEdit in newer Windows Mobile system), and then navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\OEM\
Under the registry key, create a new DWORD value with value name as SMSInboxThreadingDisabled and set it value data to 1.
Alternatively, download and apply the following DisableSMSThreading.cab file (unpack from the ZIP archive) on the PPC Phone device to automatically install the required registry key. Note that the .CAB file also install the registry key to force enable the Sent SMS notification bubble.
Soft reset the Windows Mobile device to make the change (without text messages conversation threading) effective.
In Windows 7, when a user uses mouse to double click or press Enter key to open, explorer or drill down on a drive or folder, the folder trree on the navigation pane of Windows Explorer does not automatically expand the navigation pane’s tree to show and display current folder or directory user is at. In other words, Windows 7 Explorer’s navigation pane will stay at top level of a drive or folder, and does not expand the sub-folders branches, unless user manually expand the folder tree.
The behavior of Windows 7 Explorer is a total change from Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2008 or earlier Windows operating system, where the Windows Explorer’s navigation pane will always automatically expand the folder tree to show the deepest or lowest level of folders been opened or arrived at.
Windows 7 actually does possess such ability to automatically expand navigation pane of Windows Explorer to current folder, but it’s turned off and disabled by default. For users who prefer that the navigation pane expands to follow their path into nested folders, the trick is indeed easy.
How to Make Windows Explorer Automatically Expand Navigation Pane to Current Folder in Windows 7
1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. Click on Organize pull down menu.
3. Click on Folder and search options.
4. Under the “Navigation pane” section, select and tick the check box for Automatically expend to current folder option.
5. Click OK.
With the setting enabled, the navigation pane of Windows 7 Explorer will automatically expand when user goes to sub-folder.

Note: “Close” command is import to stop the Office Software Protection service (which can also be stopped via Service.msc interface) after rearming and before reinitialize of license data (The activation countdown timer or license requires a service reinitialization or restart to update), or else “Unlicensed” license status with timer at 0 error may occur.
7. To verify that the Office 2010 rearm is successful, and to check how many days left in activation grace period before activation is required, use the following command, follows by Enter (replace IDs if different):
> GetLicensingStatus 59a52881-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663 128a057a-7e95-4063-b296-c54c5f3d3f3a
SkuId = 128a057a-7e95-4063-b296-c54c5f3d3f3a
eStatus = SL_LICENSING_STATUS_IN_GRACE_PERIOD
dwGraceTime = 29D 23:37
dwTotalGraceDays = 30 days
hrReason = 4004F00C
qwExpiration = 2010/10/31
dwGraceTime will show the remaining time available to use Office 2010 for free without activation.
8. Quit the OSPPRUN prompt with following command, follows by Enter:
> Quit
Tip 1: To check how many rearms that is remaining, use the following command:
> GetApplicationInformation 59a52881-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663 RemainingRearmCount
(DWORD, []) 59a52881-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663 = 4
OK.
After one rearm of Office 2010, 4 rearms is still possible, to extend the free (evaluation or trial) free usage of Office 2010 to 180 days (6 months or half a year), taking into account the initial 30 days activation free period before first ream is performed.
Tip 2: To check and show how many rearms of Office 2010 have been performed, use the following command:
> GetApplicationInformation 59a52881-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663 RearmCount
(DWORD, []) 59a52881-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663 = 1
OK.
Thanks to Zoran for the tip.
If you have installed trial or paid licensed version of Corel software products, you probably may notice a third-party unannounced software application makes its way into your computer too. The program is PSIService.exe by Protexis, which installs a Protexis Licensing service or Protexis Licensing V2 service in Windows operating system.
PSIService is part of Protexis copy protection DRM (digital rights management) and license management software, which intends to protect a software or application from piracy and illegal copying. Thus PSI service is normally installed by another program, such as Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo X2, Corel Paint Shop Pro XI (X1), Corel Paint Shop Pro X, that uses its service to gather licensing information to send home much like spyware, ensure copy protection and authenticate user that uses genuine version of the program.
To make matter worse, the ProtexisLicensing service may make PC boots up slower, and when disabled, will cause Corel Paint Shop Pro to stop working, in addition to warn you of running illegal copy of non-genuine software. Besides, PSIService.exe does not uninstall together with the application that installed it, when the application is uninstalled and removed.
In any case, whether you want to get rid of Protexis while keeping the application that dependent on it still working properly and able to run (contrary to popular belief, Protexis Licensing service is not required for program to run), or now need to clean the Protexis PSIService spyware manually due to non-removal by original application that installs it, the procedures to complete uninstall and remove Protexis is easy. In fact, the instructions to uninstall PSIservice is provided on Protexis website.
If you are certain that no applications using PSIService are still installed on your system, and this service is still running, you can remove it manually by following these instructions:
1. Remove the following registry entry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ProtexisLicensing]
2. Reboot your computer.
3. Delete the following files:
%windir%\System32\PSIService.exe
%windir%\System32\PSIKey.exe
Of course, in order to keep applications such as Corel Photo Shop Pro continue running without error, the complete removal instructions cannot be followed. Use the following workaround instead:
1. Open Services (services.msc) in Control Panel’s Administrators Tools.
2. Locate ProtexisLicensing or Protexis Licensing service. If you are seeing Protexis Licensing V2 service, use the next guide. Stop the service and then set the Startup Type to Disabled.
3. Bowse to %SystemDrive%\Windows\System32 folder.
4. Copy original PSIKey.dll to program folder of application that relies on Protexis, e.g. %SystemDrive%\Program Files\Corel\Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo XI\.
5. Rename PsiClient.dll to PsiClient.bak, or simply delete it.
6. Rename PSIKey.dll to PsiClient.dll
7. Rename PSIService.exe to PSIService.bak, or simply delete it.
If the Protexis DRM softare installed on your system is of version 2, follow these steps instead:
1. Open Services (services.msc) in Control Panel’s Administrators Tools.
2. Locate Protexis Licensing V2 service. Stop the service and then set the Startup Type to Disabled.
3. Bowse to %SystemDrive%\Program Files\Common Files\Protexis\License Service folder.
4. Copy original PSIKey_2.dll to program folder of application that relies on Protexis, e.g. %SystemDrive%\Program Files\Corel\Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo X2\.
5. Rename PsiClient.dll to PsiClient.bak, or simply delete it.
6. Rename PSIKey_2.dll to PsiClient.dll
7. Rename PSIService_2.exe to PSIService_2.bak, or simply delete it.
Now, Protexis Licensing Service is tamed and disabled properly so that PSIService no longer run in background, without affecting functionality of installed application.
Software Testing is the book for new or aspiring software testers interested in learning about this crucial part of the software development process. The complexity and size of today's software makes writing bug-free code extremely difficult, even for highly experienced programmers. Couple that with our increasing reliance on software for performing everyday tasks and its pervasiveness in the medical, telecommunications, manufacturing, and financial industries, and a software bug can spell disaster. Quality software can't be created with an ad- hoc, part-time, bug hunt. It requires a methodical and disciplined approach to preventing, finding, and reporting bugs. Software Testing will show you what it takes to be a successful software tester, assuring that you discover those nasty bugs before your customers do.

This nuts-and-bolts guide to sound design for animated films explains audio software, free downloads, how sound works, the power of sound when wielded by an animation filmmaker, and provides varieties of examples for how to use sound to enliven your films with professional sound.
Sound-savvy animators save precious resources (time and money) by using sound for effects they don't necessarily have time to create. For example, the sound of a crow flying gives viewers a sense of the crow without the crow. Where there's a macabre element or scene in an animated film, this book explains why you should choose a low frequency sound for it-low frequencies are scary, because the ear can't decipher their origin or direction!

With the current portable personal computers, processing on the move has never been more easy, but most laptops are however slaves to wall outlets.
You may do practically anything on a contemporary laptop computer, but their innovative features debilitate battery life to the extent that you are able to merely get a couple of hours out of it in a lot of cases.
Although battery life represents a primary cause of mobile groans, it is feasible to acquire substantial improvements from elemental good use and a couple of software tweaks. To help you acquire the most from your laptop battery, here are seven available means to make it endure longer.
1. Darken your screen
The screen constitutes among the most power-hungry components of the laptop. It calls for serious amounts of battery power to maintain your display appearing clear and luminous. Preserving this power is merely a motion of turning the brightness level low. The screen brightness level button is normally situated as a 2nd part of one of the F keys, and is corresponded by a small sunlight symbol with upward and downwards images. To apply it, just hold down the right function key then select up or down.
2. Modify power settings
Windows Vista has several outstanding power features, which enable you to squeeze out the most proficient performance when you are plugged into the mains, and optimize battery life while on the move. Type power options into the Start Search box and select Power saver from the list. The Windows Mobility Center has further techniques for economizing battery life. These include settings for powering off the monitor and kicking into sleep mode more rapidly.
3. Turn off Wi-Fi
Among the greatest battery sappers constitutes the wireless networking capacities built into most laptops. Wi-Fi debilitates the battery from perpetually absorbing power from the battery and, while not online, searching networks. Once you are using your laptop computer away from the power grid, the likeliness is you are outside from wireless networks, therefore you'll be able to turn this device off. Numerous laptops have got a function button that enables you to switch off the wireless adapter manually to spare yourself the needless waste, only older laptops frequently do not have this. Whenever this is the case, simply go to the Control Panel, access the Network Connections menu and disable your wireless connection manually.
4. Switch off peripheral devices
Utilizing USB peripherals could pose a great drain upon your system, because your CPU board has to power it, therefore disconnecting everything spares juice. USB sticks, mice and webcams are primary offenders, thus replicate all your data across and eject your devices as soon as possible, and bear with laptop track pads over your USB computer mouse. Numerous laptops have function buttons to switch off the inbuilt webcam, which runs out the battery rather quickly.
5. Eject your disc drives
Having a disc spinning around in the drive constitutes a large drain upon resources, and numerous programs constantly do this. Just kick out your discs before you alternate to battery power to acquire critical additional minutes from your work day.
6. Invest in some computer hardware
Sound use may go someways to broadening your battery lifespan, but whenever you want to utilize your laptop computer throughout your work day, you are going to require a lot of assistance. Most laptops come with a six-cell battery, but a lot of makers provide eight- or even 12-cell elective upgrades, which may double up your power. One option to costly laptop batteries are products such as the Philips Portable Power Pack, which affords you precious additional hours for all your devices. The Philips is a compact battery unit that has adapters for most laptops and cellphones, which is portable enough to be put in a bag and has got adequate capability to double the duration of your charge.
7. Disable features
Windows Vista has got a few convenient built-in features, but some cast demands upon your system that are needless while functioning on the move. Switching off Windows Aero and the Windows Sidebar will also make your laptop computer more proficient .
