Download Internet Explorer 7 without Validation

There are many reasons to want to use Internet Explorer 7. One of the best reasons, is that it is up to date, whereas Internet Explorer 6 is very old. The new version of IE is very nice and worth the upgrade. To install Internet Explorer, one must validate his copy of Windows. But who cares and who goes for genuine copy of any software today? :) Though there may be various ways to bypass the validation check but probably this the simplest.
Warning! This post is only to be used for educational purposes. In other words, I am in no way at all condoning the use of illegal copies of Microsoft Windows XP. This post is not about piracy. It is only a demonstration, strictly for the purposes of education.
  1. The first thing to do is to download the Internet Explorer 7 executable. Download Here.
  2. Download and install Winrar (no need if you already have it installed).
  3. Right-click on the file that you downloaded named IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe and select extract to IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.
  4. Download this patch named iecustom.dll.
  5. Open the IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu folder that you just created and open the update folder inside it.
  6. You are going to copy the patch named iecustom.dll that you downloaded to the update folder. When it asks to overwrite, choose yes.
  7. Next, download normaliz.exe.
  8. Then copy and paste this to C:/.
  9. Go back into the update folder IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu\update.
  10. Run update.exe.
  11. Let it update Internet Explorer.
  12. At the end of the update, check the box that says restart later.
  13. Download normaliz.dll.
  14. Copy and paste this to c:\windows\system32\.
  15. Reboot.
  16. If you have a problem with your desktop looking blank, there is a reason for it. It is because the normaliz.dll file is not being recognized by explorer.exe. If you don’t have this problem, then you may proceed to step 17. If you do have this problem, you must do the following in this exact order.
  • Open the task manager (alt+ctrl+del).
  • Open file–>new task.
  • Type C:\normaliz.exe and press OK.
  • When the Winzip self-extractor window pops up, click unzip.
  • Reboot.
  • When you login your desktop will be normal again.
17. Open the same update folder. Run xmllitesetup.exe Reboot. Internet Explorer 7 has now be installed on your PC without validation. For any help plzz reply.
Trust me, this works! Enjoy!

Change Logon name on IP messenger

I should rather say this post is specially for my JUIT freinds. Me bit partial in makin this statement but this post reflect IP messenger which is more common in Colleges where you have LAN facilities like in ours. Newyz, back to the Topic. We guys love to display funky names on IP's username, groups and host but we least bother to touch LOGON name, as we dont have the access to this rather most of them dont know from where xctly we can change them. We think that this name can only be change while installing OS. Though many of them must be knowin the procedure but more of them dont.
Now strainght away let me tell you the procedure.
Right Click on My Computer and click on Manage. Traverse Through Local User and Group -> User. Now on the right part of the window Rename your Logon name. Refer to the figure above for easy navigation. You may need to restart your Windows for change to take place.

Show current Windows Media Player music status in Google Talk

This is the procedure that you will generally find in most of the forums. But what if this Plugin is not available with your Windows Media Player? Which generally happens as it happened in my case. Last night when I installed Windows Essential (Edited version) I didn't found any such Plugin. I tried for remedies in many sites but in vain. So I made many R&Ds and finally come out with affirmative. Its simplest way to add ur missing plugin in Windows Media Player. The procedure is as follow:
  1. Just locate your installed folder of Google Talk (eg:C:\Program Files\Google\Google Talk) and copy 'gtalkwmp1.dll' file to paste it in C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\ (in my case).
  2. Hope you gt it..... Now you have your 'Google Talk Music Plugin' in your Media Player.
  3. Follow the procedure according to screenshot above.

Speed up web browsing with OpenDNS

When you type in a domain name such as orkut.com (most common in colleges) in your browser the computer must resolve the friendly name into an IP address of the server to download the web page and supporting files. Windows uses a DNS (domain name system) server to lookup this information. By default, Windows uses your ISP’s DNS server. Depending on your provider, the performance of their DNS resolving server varies. Some large national providers are known to provide unreliable and slow DNS servers. The performance of the DNS server you are using is one component that affects the speed of your internet browsing. Since each domain name you type in must be resolved into an IP address, the amount of time that takes will delay the loading of any web page. Some users with overloaded ISP DNS servers can see delays in multiple seconds before web pages start to load. OpenDNS provides free alternative DNS servers that anyone can use with any internet provider. Unlike many national internet providers, OpenDNS’s DNS servers are very fast and reliable. Using OpenDNS servers instead of your ISP servers will help you speed up your internet browsing by cutting down on the delay between resolving a domain name and getting the IP address so your browser can start loading the web page. Configuring your computer to use OpenDNS servers instead of your ISP’s is a simple change that works in both Windows XP and Windows Vista:

  1. Click on the Start Button and type in ncpa.cpl and hit Enter. In Windows XP Click on the Start Button, click Run and then type in ncpa.cpl
  2. Right click on your active network connection that you use to connect to the Internet and select Properties.
  3. On the Networking / General tab, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) (version 4 on Windows Vista) and hit Properties.
  4. On the properties screen, select Use the following DNS server addresses and then type in 208.67.222.222 in the preferred and 208.67.220.220 in the alternate boxes.

5- Hit OK twice and you are finished. Works good in Jaypee where normal net speed suxs!! :P

Switch Programs from Your Mouse with AltTab Mouse Shortcut

Windows only: I at the CyberNet blog has posted up a shortcut written in AutoHotKey but running on any system, that lets you make a "roll click"—or holding down the left mouse button, then hitting the right—to activate Windows window-switching interface, usually accessed through the Alt+Tab key combination. Actually, my script uses the Ctrl+Alt+Tab combo, which keeps the window options open until you click one to switch. We're usually more fond of keeping our hands on the keys here at College, but for those comfortable with their laptop trackpads or just handier with a mouse, this script are nice tweaks. This should work in any version of Windows that supports the Alt+Tab key combination, and it can easily be set to start with Windows by placing it in your Startup folder located in the Start Menu. You’ll know this is running when you see the Vista-like orb in the System Tray, and you can temporarily disable the functinoality by right-clicking on the icon. d/l this link and Enjoy!

Change Text on XP Start Button

In order to make the changes, the file explorer.exe located at C:\Windows needs to be edited. Since explorer.exe is a binary file it requires a special editor. For purposes of this article I have used Resource Hacker. Resource HackerTM is a freeware utility to view, modify, rename, add, delete and extract resources in 32bit Windows executables and resource files (*.res). It incorporates an internal resource script compiler and decompiler and works on Win95, Win98, WinME, WinNT, Win2000 and WinXP operating systems. Navigate here to download Resource Hacker.

The first step is to make a backup copy of the file explorer.exe located at C:\Windows. Place it in a folder somewhere on your hard drive where it will be safe. Start Resource Hacker and open explorer.exe located at C:\Windows\explorer.exe as shown in Figure above.

The category we are going to be using is String Table. Expand it by clicking the plus sign then navigate down to and expand string 37 followed by highlighting 1033. If you are using the Classic Layout rather than the XP Layout, use number 38. The right hand pane will display the stringtable as shown in Figure above. We’re going to modify item 578, currently showing the word “start” just as it displays on the current Start button. Next, hit the Compile Script button above. Now hit CTRL-ALT-DEL and Windows Task Manager should popup. Click on the processes tab and find Explorer.exe, and click it once. Now, hit the end process button at the bottom (Make sure you don't have any other programs open). Your taskbar at the bottom of the screen should disappear. Hold ALT then click tab while holding ALT, then let off the ALT. Keep doing this until Resource Hacker comes in to view. We can now save Explorer.exe because it is not running. Click File-> Save as-> and find Explorer.exe again, mine is located in C:\windows\. It will ask you if you want to overwrite, just click yes. Now, ALT-TAB back to Windows Task Manager and click on File -> New Task -> in the black type in Explorer.exe, or type in the full path to explorer like: C:\winnt\explorer.exe. If you did everything correctly, you should see your new image and name on the start button.
