How to Split Zip Files with winzip

Zip files provide great way to compress our files. This not only protects our loose files inside the archive but also reduces the disk space used by the files otherwise.
But what most people doesn’t know is that we can use the WinZip tool to split the zip files as well. WinZip is a third party tool to compress and zip the files into one archive.
WinZip also has a support for splitting zipped files into smaller files of desired size. This feature is very useful as an alternative to disk spanning because:
  • To overcome e-mail size limits. Some e-mail systems limit the size of attachments; if you want to e-mail a large Zip file that exceeds your limit, you can split it into smaller parts and e-mail them separately.
  • As an alternative to spanned Zip files when you want to make multiple copies of the disk set.
  • To assist with large downloads. Some users may have difficulty downloading very large Zip files from web sites, FTP sites, etc. You can use the split Zip feature to break large files into smaller pieces that can be downloaded separately.

Instantly download your rapidshare files

We like downloading stuffs from various file sharing websites like Rapidshare, Megaupload, 4shared etc but the thing is we need to wait some time to be able to download files from them if we are free users. There may be many tools or tips available to bypass the time limit but the latest one that I heard about lately is called Mipony.
Mipony is a program to facilitate the download of files from free host sites such as Rapidshare, Megaupload, Easy-share, MediaFire and Filefactory etc. Mipony is a Windows download manager which automatically downloads the file in the order you indicate it to do so and by copying and pasting the links. When you download files from host sites, you usually find that there are restrictions that make you stay tuned to download. Mipony manages all these restrictions and controls the validation keys, the waiting times, the server selection, the daily download limit, etc.
The tool has an in-built web browser as well so that you don’t need to launch a separate one when searching the links. Put the addresses of the files in Mipony and the program will be in charge of everything to have the files downloaded as fast as possible. Mipony also checks every link to see if the file has been deleted from the server or if it is available to be downloaded.
Once the link has been added to the download list, the files will be downloaded while you navigate and if you close the download program, the downloads will be restarted when you start the program again. Mipony also has the option to join the files together (HJ Split files).
The tool is definitely worth a try.

How to prevent facebook hacking protect your fb account from hackers

For some people facebook is there life For those who donot want there life destroyed I shall share 15 ways to prevent FB hacking.Please share this post around as this event was seriously traumatic, I’d like to help people prevent it.

What you should not do

  • Same passwords
    I had the same passwords across many accounts. This is a massive error. If you are like me you will sign up for things everyday and who knows what some of these shady affiliate/software companies are doing with your details.
  • Complacent internet habits
    I got really complacent about how I use the internet, which sites I visited and so on. If you use the computer 12 hours a day like me you will probably be doing the same thing.
  • Out of date security and browser versions
    The computers I was using over there had out of date browsers and anti-virus software. My home computer is like Fort Knox now.
  • Incorrect Facebook window settings
    I was visiting Facebook on an insecure page. I didn’t know it either. I’ll show you what I did wrong down below.
So I really do blame myself. I could have possibly avoided this whole mess if I was just a bit more educated and vigilant. Hopefully my experience can serve as a catalyst for you guys to fix up your own security lameness.

Facebook and Email Security tips to stop hackers


Here are some of the very minimum things you should do if you want to stop hackers from ruining your life. The sad thing? You can probably do all of these things perfectly and still get hacked.
  1. Different passwords
    Every single account should have a different password. Never ever have the same password for an insecure site like Facebook and something important like your online banking.
  2. Complex passwords
    If your password is less than ten characters long, a mixture of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols then it is not strong enough. It must never be a name, birthday or information about someone or something around you. An example of a strong password is something like “ca#T_on+M
  3. Complex usernames
    I bet 95% of you have your email address or name as your username? Bad move rookie. You should make your usernames as complex as your passwords. Many WordPress blogs are set up with the default username of “admin” so hackers are already 50% of the way there. Change your usernames to something complex and unrelated.
  4. Updated anti-virus and anti-malware software
    You need to have an updated version (or two) of the latest anti-virus and anti-spyware programs. There are free ones like AVG or paid ones like Norton. I also use Malwarebytes (affiliate) to scan for things that anti-virus programs miss. Get one and update it automatically.
  5. Latest Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari versions
    Don’t just ignore that update request from your browser, do it right away. Some of those updates are security ones. In fact, keep up to date as to which is the most secure browser and just use that. Hello Chrome?
  6. Use Facebook and email securely with the right URL
    Go log in to Facebook. Go on, do it. Now, does the URL say “http://” or “https://”? If it is the former then you are not in a secure session. Go in to your settings and make sure it always uses https:// and whenever you log into any website make sure you type the “s” if you are logging in.
  7. Don’t use public free Wi-Fi
    You know when you go to a cafe and log on to the free network? Well, take a look at how easy it is for people to steal your Facebook and email passwords using a simple Firefox plugin. Its really sad that this type of stuff exists. I just don’t use Wi-Fi anymore.
  8. Don’t send passwords or store important information online OR offline
    Don’t send secure information over the net at all. Especially through chat or email. If someone has got into your account without you noticing they might be monitoring what you are doing. If you need to send passwords to workers, family, etc. then call them on the phone. You should also avoid saving passwords on your hard drive as that too is really easy to access.
  9. Make your security questions tough
    You know those security questions like “what is your mother’s maiden name?” Well, make them complex answers. For example, in one of mine I selected first pet’s name and then made the answer a complex password. If you ever get hacked you need this information to re-gain access to the account. You don’t want a hacker to change this.
  10. Back up everything
    You should constantly be backing up your hard drive, emails and blog contents to an external hard drive. If the worst happens and someone deletes your blog content you can get it back up without too much trouble. Imagine if you were relying on a website for your income and it all got deleted?
  11. Don’t use your PC Administrator account
    Most people use the Administrator account because it gives you freedom to add programs, etc. But, did you know that by using a non-Administrator account you can slow down the spread of a virus attack?
  12. Monitor your logged on locations
    If you go down to the bottom of your Gmail account you will see a little line of text that says “Last account activity”. This shows you where your account has been accessed from so if you suspect something is not right you should keep an eye on this and record unfamiliar IPs.
  13. Use a phishing filter
    This can help you identify if anyone is trying to run a phishing scam on you by showing you what is safe.
  14. Don’t click links in emails
    As a general rule, most banks and financial institutions don’t send you emails with links. Don’t ever click any such email you get. If you genuinely think it is from your bank ring them up instead.
  15. Research and read up
    Make sure you are up to date with the latest in internet security. You can create alerts in your news reader or follow blogs that update you on such concerns.
If I have missed anything out please leave a comment and let me know. Hopefully we can turn this article in to a nice resource for people to use in order to prevent these types of hacks and phishing scams happening to them.

What to do if you still get hacked

If you still get hacked there are some important steps that you should take from a business, personal and security point of view.
  • Don’t panic
    I panicked and it made everything so much worse. In the end it turned out to be okay. Even if the worse happens and you lose all your money (which is rare) you can still get back on your feet and fight another day. Most often the bank can investigate such losses and get your money back anyway.
  • Change everything else
    While you are investigating the breach go and change all your other passwords including the security questions on all your other accounts. Make sure you are doing this from a safe PC and a secure network.
  • Email your contacts
    Email your contact list and let them know what has happened and that you are trying to fix it. Apologize for the inconvenience.

Lower Mouse Speed with SlowMousion

If you are more into selecting some shapes using the mouse then it must be more important to you to lower the mouse speed so that you can select the shapes in a better way. Say, you are selecting some area while editing an image then if you do the same with normal speed mouse then chances are you may select some irregular shape.
Although in Windows you can slow down the speed of the mouse movement but this is not what I am conveying about in this post. While slowing the mouse using Windows slows down it completely but with the tool called SlowMousion, you can only slow down when selecting something.
SlowMousion is a small application that slows down mouse cursor’s speed when pressing and holding down a key or button. This allows you more sensitive mouse movements when drawing shapes, dragging something or anything you are doing with mouse.
You can also change the hotkey to be pressed when slowing the mouse motion. The tool is a nice way to put a brake on the mouse speed.
