Hack BSNL Broadband to Increase speed

BSNL Internet is most famous Internet Broadband connection service in India. Its not only due to its ready availability but mainly because of it's somewhat cost-effectiveness. But, even though, many BSNL Broadband and BSNL Cellone Dataone users are frustrated with BSNL Internet speed as they never get speed that BSNL has promised to them and BSNL broadband connection breaks after every minutes because of line errors. So today i am going to share with you the latest hacks that you can use to increase BSNL broadband connection speed and avoid regular disconnection and line losses. Increase BSNL Broadband connection speed: To increase BSNL broadband speed, just follow these 5 BSNL hacks mentioned below: 1. Change BSNL DNS servers: The main reason for slow BSNL Broadband connection speed is slow BSNL DNS servers. So, we canincrease BSNL Broadband connection speed by changing default BSNL DNS servers to fast BSNL DNS servers, which can help us to increase BSNL broadband connection speed. Using public DNS servers improves speed, as BSNL has lot of users and all usingthe same DNS servers. So during peak time the DNS reacts very slow and takes a lot of time to translate the host address to numerical value, called IP address that your network used to connect to website. Use these DNS servers for best speed: 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 2. Use Adblock Plus: The best way to increase BSNL Broadband connection speed is to block flash and other unwanted ad material on webpage, so that page loads faster, thus make BSNL Broadband apparently fast. AdBlockPlus is a firefox addon used to block flash content of page, thus helping you to increase BSNL Broadband connection speed. This has a lot of effect as it blocks unwanted advertisements and popups thus making your internet browsing experience even better. 3. Using TCPOptimizer: This is another software used to optimize your TCP/IP connection settings. TCP/IP determines the maximum transfer Unit(MTU) for your device. The maximum data that your connection can send or receive per packet. Best MTU setting for BSNL broadband is 1492 ( by default its 1500 that causes an extra load on your broadband connection that why disconnections occur as you are forcing your device for doing something that it is not capable off, so optimise your TCP/IP settings). You can use TCP Optimizer your BSNL network settings. Install TCPOptimizer. 4. Using Faster Fox: With Fasterfox's unique prefetching mechanism, you can increase BSNL Broadband connection speed which recycles idle bandwidth by silently loading and caching all of the links on the page you are browsing. Prefecting deceases the load time as it already stores the copy of previous connection to the websites that you have made. So it loads faster. Install FasterFox . 5. Reducing cache space: Reduced Cache space can be usedto increase BSNL Broadband speed. You can do this as: For Internet Explorer : Tools - Internet Options - Browsing History - Settings - Disk space to use and reduce disk space value to "50". For Firefox: Tools - Options - Advanced - Network and look for cache space. Change value to 50. These are some BSNL hacks to increase BSNL internet broadbandconnection speed. Just give them a try and check out whether it works for you to increase BSNL internet speed. If you have any other BSNL hack to increase BSNL broadband speed, please mentionit in comments.

Tips to protect your Facebook profile from virus and hacking

The months March and April were not good for Facebook’s security system because of the virus that hit Facebook. But it’s more important for an individual Facebook user to protect his/her own profile from these viruses than that for Facebook developers itself as some of the viruses or an attempt to hack your profile can use your profile to share explicit content on Facebook.

Well you don’t need to worry for your protection, rather just keep important things in mind but first of all you should be familiar with the ways you should protect your profile.

Attacks and Viruses:

>>Fake home page: This was the first major attack on facebook this year. A strange link was spread on the whole Facebook which leads you to a page similar to the login page with same design as Facebook but the URL was different. The link attackers used were similar to facebook.com. That means you are giving your user id and password to any other website which redirects you to your actual Facebook profile after entering your id and password.

>>Password reset E-Mails: A recent attack on Facebook which sends user an e-mail to reset your password. These e-mails were actually sent to infect the computer. To know more read: The latest Facebook virus via password reset e-mails.

>>Virus in Facebook inbox: Again a recent attack on Facebook. This sends profile friends a personal message which contains a link that re-directs you to an infected page. The link was actually sent by a hacked Facebook profile. Most of the links are now blacklisted with Malware warnings on them.

>>Facebook used on a public shared PC: This can be a reason of your Hacked public profile as well even if you logged out from your Facebook account.

PROTECTION:

>>Never share your password with anyone, not even with your best friends.

>>While logging in, always check that the login page is facebook.com not facebookie or anything else.

>>Never click on any link on Facebook, specially those which used an URL shortener unless and until it is properly attached with the post/message.

>>Always delete cookies and clear the cache after using Facebook from a public shared computer.

>>Never left your profile logged in, somebody can misuse it just for fun.

>>Never ignore a warning from official Facebook.

>>Reset your password weekly or monthly. Reset your password immediately in case of strange activities.

>>Don’t download any file from Facebook as it can’t be official. Facebook is a social networking site not a file sharing system.

>>Don’t delete your hacked profile it can be recovered easily however you may deactivate your profile.

>>Keep your system clean from malwares, malwares can be used to read the password while logging in.

>>Enter your personal details only when it’s asked by official Facebook even if it’s an E-Mail, check for it’s sender.

>>Install a good antivirus like Nod32 or Kaspersky and relax.

Another Thing We Do..

1. Install anti virus to prevent trojans stealing information.
2. Change your password regularly
3. Make sure your friend doesn’t have access to your computer physically
4. Do not open or download any executable file unless you know what you are doing
5. Have a strong password consisting of alphanumeric and special charecters
6. Reconfirm your primary/secondary mail address
7. Do not give out your password to anybody at all
8. Keep a unique password to FB than your other online accounts
9. Relax

FB stores its passwords in a non-decryptable hashes(using hashing algorithms like md5) and cannot be hacked. Only way it can be hacked is by your actions.

Install windows 7 From a USB memory Key

Computers that are sold without Windows are sometimes cheaper.You Can install your oqn cop[y of Windows 7,but if theres no CD or DVD drive it can be unclear how to do that.
There are two ways to install Windows 7 on a netbook.The easiest is to use an external USB DVD drive.With Windows running connect the drive to the netbook and insert the Windows disc.Close the Windows 7 Launcher if it starts.Restart the netbook and go into the PC’s Bios by pressing the delete key when it first turns on.Some computers may have the screen for a message to this effect when the netbook starts.Set the PC to boot from the USB DVD drive by searching in the Advanced menu for order’then restart the computer.When it starts it should load the Windows 7 Setup from the disc.
If you don’t have an external DVD drive,an alternative is to install Windows from a bootable USB memory key.For this,you’ll need a second PC with DVD drive,and a USB memory key with at least 4GB of free space.It isn,t enough to copy the files over from the window 7 installation disc to the memory key as key first has to be made bootable using a freely downlaod program.
There are a few steps to this process though.First,you neend to copy the Windows 7 DVD to an ISO file on the hard disk of your second computer.A good tool for this is Imgburn.Put the Window 7 disc in the PC’s DVD drive,then in the program’s main menu.click create image file from disc.In tje dropdown menu at the top,then click the folder icon under Destination.In the window,choose the PC’s DVD driver letter using the dropdown menu at the top,then click the folder icon under Destination.In the window that appears,choose a filename and location for the ISO file.Click Ok Then click the read button at the bottom to create the ISO file.
Next you’ll neend to downlaod Microsoft,s Window 7USB/DVD Downlaod Tool From www.snipca.com/x1487.If your second PC is running Windows XP,you also need the image Mastering API,available form www.snipca.com/x1488,and the.Net Framework,which can be found at www.snipca.com/x1489.Windows may need restarting after these programs are installed.Next plug the USB memory key into your second PC,click on Start ,open the folder Windows 7 USB DVD Downlaod Tool,and run the program.
The first Screen asks you to chose the windows 7 ISO file you created using the folder browser.Click Next,and the following screen asks if you wish to create a bootable DVD or USB memory key,so click USB Device.Afterwards,it asks you to selecta USB Device,so click the arrow next to the dropdown box,then choose the driver letter for the USB memory key.If it doesn’t appear,click Refersh.Finally,click Begin Copying.
When it is done,remove the USB key from the PC and plug it into the netbook.Press the Delete key when switching the Delete key when switching the netbook on to enter the Bios,find the boot menu as before,and set it to boot from the USB memory key.Save the changes,then restart.The net book should start from USB memory key,and the installation process should be identical to when using a real DVD to install Windows.
