An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the computer in Windows which can be named as "CON".
This is something pretty cool...and unbelievable...At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened ! So, inform about this to all your friends.TRY IT NOW !! IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER .
Do u know who is that Indian......

It's Me.....
Just joking...HA HA HAa......

But Just Try it now, let all of ur friend to know about this....


CAUSE:-

"CON" is a reserved word under windows OS which represents "CONSOLE" i.e. Visual Display Unit..... So we can't create a folder with this reserved name...

But U may fool somone by creating "CON " folder instead of "CON"....
See carefully the first "CON " word ...It is not actually "CON" . It is "CON+space" ...
I wanna say... Just create a folder with name 'CON ' by pressing.. C, O, N, and spacebar respectively ..... And enjoy...

"Ctrl + c"....copying like this is risky :-(

We do copy various data by pressing "ctrl+c" and use this copied data for pasting elsewhere. This copied data is stored in clipboard and is accessible from the net by a combination of Javascripts and ASP.

Feeling Hard to believe??!! ok...

Just follow the steps below:
1) select and Copy any text by pressing "ctrl+c" on your keyboard

2) Click the Link:http://www.sourcecodesworld.com/special/clipboard.asp

3) You will see the text you copied on the Screen which was accessed by this web page.

Foxed!! hmmm....
So Don't keep sensitive data (like passwords, Credit Card numbers, PINetc.) in the clipboard while surfing the web. It is extremely easy to extract the text stored in the clipboard to steal your sensitive information.

To prevent credit card Fraud

Imagine opening your credit card statement one morning and discovering to your horror that you suddenly owe thousands of dollars - on purchases that you never made. Impossible? Credit card fraud on the rise, so you need to treat your card and its information with extreme care. Here are 10 tips to help insure you're not the victim of thieves and fraudsters:
1. Sign new and replacement cards immediately.
2. Destroy the old cards by cutting them into pieces and shred all old receipts and bills.
3. Don't fax your credit-card number, if possible. Remember,the faxed document could remain in sight at the other end for long periods of time.
4. Don't give your card number over the phone unless you have initiated the call.
5. Destroy any carbon paper if it's used as part of the credit card transaction. Somebody can grab it and forge your signature.
6. Don't respond to any "scam" e-mails requesting your credit card number.
7. Never send your credit card number in an e-mail to anyone!
8. A good option for discouraging theft is to choose a credit card that includes your photo and signature on the card.
9. If you have questions about mistakes or unauthorized items on your statement, you have the right to challengethem.
10. If your card is lost, stolen, or you suspect fraudulentuse, call your company's 24-hour hotline immediately to prevent your card from being used as little as possible. The company will block its use, and you won't be responsible for any charges made by thieves.

You'll never deter fraudsters completely. But you can certainly make life as difficult as possible for them.

Interesting facts about Bill gates!!

I was searching for some information about the our “BILLU BHAIYA " :-) and found this funny information, its a list of how rich is Mr.Bill Gates and come to think of it, Gates sure is the luckiest man of earth.
He has all the money in the world and why Mr.Gates did not register his own domain name for www.billgates.com, now we know why Mr.Gates is no match for Google. So much for the title “King of Computers”

1. Bill Gates earns US$250 every SECOND, that’s about US$20 Million a DAY and US$7.8 Billion a YEAR!
2. If he drops a thousand dollars, he won’t even bother to pick it up because during the 4 seconds he picks it, he would’ve already earned it back.
3. The US national debt is about 5.62 trillion dollars, if Bill Gates were to pay the debt by himself; he will finish it in less then 10 years.
4. He can donate US$15 to everyone on earth but still be left with US$5 Million for his pocket money.
5. Michael Jordan is the highest paid athlete in US. If he doesn’t drink and eat, and keeps up his annual income i.e. US$30 Million, he’ll have to wait for 277 years to become as rich as Bill Gates is now.
6. If Bill Gates was a country, he would be the 37th richest country on earth.
7. If you change all of Bill Gate’s money to US$1 notes , you can make a road from the earth to moon, 14 times back and forth.But you have to make that road non-stop for 1,400 years, and use a total of 713 BOEING 747 planes to transport all the money.
8. Bill Gates is about 40 this year. If we assume that he will live for another 35 years, he has to spend US$6.78 Million per day to finish all his money before he goes to heaven.Last but not the least the best one!!
9. If Microsoft Windows’ users can claim US$1 for every time their computers hang because of Microsoft Windows, Bill Gates will be bankrupt in 3 years.

Kate Winslet Gets the Photoshop Makeup


Hollywood celebrities could be carrying a new accessory in their makeup kits - Adobe Photoshop - to remove or conceal all those blemishes, dark circles and attain that flawless look and perfect skin, atleast in their digital photographs.He he he..how interesting!!
When Sony Pictures published a flawless photograph of Kate Winslet on the poster of her upcoming movie "The Holiday" - specialists argued that the shot has been technically altered to create an image far removed from the natural reality.And a side-by-side comparison of her recent images just proves that the observation is indeed correct.
