عندما نظر أنا كان في التوثيق للتسجيل ومفاتيح يصحب مع الأمر معالجة أنا تصادفت هذا:

[أني تيم] فتح أنا وحدة طرفيّة للتحكّم تطبيق, أو أمر رسالة حثّ نافذة [نوتبد] أطلق - والأمر معالجة لم يبدأ إلى أن هو كان ينفضّ. هذا يتضمّن المستعملات [لوجن] نص.

هكذا. سينفّذ هذا يعني أيّما برنامج أنا أضع في هذا مفتاح, والأمر معالجة سينتظر ل هو أن ينهي قبل يستمرّ.

I ended up using the CALL command within each batch file I had. This was difficult because the batch files were part…

• Microsoft Releases “Administrative Templates” for Windows Vista
  If you have Vista machines in an Active Domain, here are the templates you need to manage them via GPO.

Windows Vista operates external hard drives that are connected with USB differently than internal drives. Write caching is disabled so that you can safely remove the drive at almost any time. This is a great feature for USB thumb drives that are frequently inserted and removed from your computer. But if you have a large hard drive that is in an external enclosure that you never disconnect from your computer, write caching is also disabled which can decrease performance.

This tweak is going to show you how to increase the performance of your external hard drives by turning write caching back on as well as activating advanced performance. Let’s get started:

1. Click on the start button, then right click on Computer and select Manage.
2. Click on Device Manager on the side menu.
3. Expand Disk drives and locate your external drive from the list.
4. Right click on the drive and select Properties.
5. On the Policies tab, select Optimize for performance.
6. Next, check Enable write caching on the disk and Enable advanced performance as shown below.

7. Hit OK and

Well this entry deals with the current security setup I have on my computer.
And explains why I have them installed.

Security comes in several layers I’m not talking about OSI.

1. Router Firewall / NAT.
2. Software Firewall (Application based firewall)
3. Hostbased Intrusion Protection (HIPS)
4. Antivirus.
5. Anti Spyware.

1. The first one is pretty simple either you have it or you don’t.
My router I got with my broadband comes with NAT but no Firewall.
NAT = Network Address Translation.
NAT offers a nice first layer of defense for hackers, because they need to figure out what the internal network is.

The internal network can be easy to figure out on a specially crafted website, there are several websites that show your internal IP address on your network.

eg. http://ip-lookup.net/lan-address

Remember the video of a Ferrari crashing (lightly) when filming the new Project Gotham Racing 4 advertisement from a few months back? Well here’s the final version of the ad for PGR4 which features the non-crashing version of the stunt. Notably the company behind the visual effects, Method Studios, also produced the recent jaw-dropping Halo 3 “Believe” videos.

If anyone’s interested in the “making-of”, a few YouTube videos from bystanders have surfaced showing exactly what happened on the road.
