See How To Use Etisalat Blacberry Subscription(BB) On PC For Free

Posted by Unknown | Thursday, 28 June 2012 | Posted in

I’ve been getting a lot of messages from readers asking me how they can use their etisalat BlackBerry BIS to connect to the internet on their PCs. I’ve not been able to give a definite answer all these while because I haven’t tried it then. Now I have tried and use it myself.

Using your etisalat BIS on PC involves the following steps:


Tools needed:
•etisalat SIM
•GPRS enabled phone
•An Internet Modem
•Personal Computer
•Your Brain

 

1. Get an etisalat SIM and activate it for Data. A SIM should normally be automatically activated for internet immediately you insert into your phone and on it. If after some period you still don’t get the setting sent to you. Push etisalat Data Settings to your Phone.
If you already have a SIM you have been using to browse, you don’t need this step. Just proceed to step two.

2. Now that your SIM is internet ready, load a recharge card of N100 to your phone and subscribe to etisalat daily Blackberry voice plan. You can use the weekly or monthly plan. I just want to test with this first.
You can subscribe to etisalat daily Blackberry voice plan by dialing *449*3*2# with N100 on your phone. You can use any phone to subscribe. It doesn’t have to be a Blackberry.
Wait till you get a etisalat SMS that your subscription is successful.

3. Remove the etisalat SIM and insert into you Internet Modem. Connect your modem to your PC and create a new settings profile on your modem with the following information:

Profile name: INFOLOADED.COM (You can use anything)
APN: blackberry.net
ID/Username: leave empty
Password: leave empty

Advanced Settings:
Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8
Alternate DNS: 8.8.4.4

Save, select as the Default Setting and Connect to the Internet.

4. Now open your browser and use the following IP and Port:

IP: 10.71.170.5
Port: 8080

Save it and you are almost done.

Now type www.gurucity.com in the address and launch it. What do you see? It’s working! Lol

You can now visit any website of your choice and download as you want but don’t forget to drop you testimony here first that it’s working for you!

HERE IS AN UPDATE GUYS:

After you have used it with the IP for some days, you can remove the IP and Port from the browser and use “Automatically detect Proxy”. This way, you can open https (secure) sites.

7 Software I Recommend For Increasing Work Productivity on Windows

Posted by Unknown | | Posted in

I love to keep my Windows Desktop Organized and at the same time Productive for day to day computing. And this urges me to find useful productivity windows software to improve my work style and deliver more efficiently. So, here is a list of these software I personally recommend.

Fences


Fences is a desktop organizing application that lets you create a fence or a specific area on your desktop for arranging icons in a group. For example, you can keep all your browser applications in one fence, all your day-to-day use application in the second one, and all your games in the third fence.

fences

When you run Fences, the main window of this application will prompt you to choose from Recommended settings where Fences decides itself where to arrange the desktop applications or the custom one where you create fences filled with your own preferred desktop applications.

fences

I personally chose to use the Recommended one as I don’t have much applications on my desktop and it did re-arranged my desktop applications in a different manner, but this application is better for all those people who love to fill there desktop.

fences

You can even configure where the fences should be placed from the fences settings window. If you’re looking for more desktop organizing applications you can visit list of software to Beautify Windows Desktop.

Total Commander


Total Commander as the name suggests lets you get command of your Windows Operating System. It lets you copy, move, and delete files and folder. From this description it may look like just an ordinary file explorer, but it supports zipping and unzipping of files and folder, and zip archives of course. Another good thing about total commander is the support it gives for controlling your network shared files and folder. You can easily share files and folder on your network with just a click. It even has added support for FTP client and lots of other things which you can check out yourself.

total commander main window

When I first used this application the interface resembles to X-Plore (A symbian application). The only thing that I dislike about this application is that it’s a shareware application.

TeraCopy


There is nothing much that I can add to this application as every user who has ever used it know its worth. Other than being the most awesome file relocation application, Tera Copy has support for pausing the copying or moving (Which btw is now added in Windows 8). Another good thing about TeraCopy is that during a copy error, Unlike Windows it just skips the file itself thus resuming the copying. The interface for TeraCopy is simple, just choose your file or folder to copy or move and choose its destination, and let TeraCopy do its work.

teracopy main window

Remember this application is only free for non-commercial use.

Click.to


Click.toworks the same way as a desktop launcher,it does not only create single-click shortcuts of regular PC applications but it creates shortcuts for online services like Google, Gmail, Facebook, Blogger, Youtube, Box, Wikipedia, GoogleMaps, and many others. When you run click.to for the first time you’re asked to choose from different services that you want to be kept in the launcher, and you are even prompted to choose the desired location of the launcher on the desktop.

clickto

If for some reason you want to add or configure the settings or even change the launcher location you can do so by right-clicking on the click.to icon in the system tray and then choosing the Options.

clickto

Its a very good application for regular internet and applications user like us.

Unlocker


Ever encountered errors like file is in use by any other program or user or disk is not full or write protected while deleting, moving or renaming a file even if the file is currently not in use. This happens a lot of times for many Windows users (I personally had this problem when I used to use Windows XP). Now if you’re encountering problems like this and can’t find a way to complete the task you were going to perform, then Unlocker is the right application for you.

unlocker options

After installing unlocker all you have to do is right click on the application and choose unlocker. Now choose from any of the three options move, delete, and rename.

Unlocker even works when the application is really in use by some program.

Ultimate Windows Context Menu Customizer


Even though the name is so obvious, Ultimate Windows Context Menu Customizer is the best application that you can find for customizing you context-menu not only for desktop but for all other windows.

context menu customizer

To add an application in your context menu just choose the Context Menu Location on the left hand side of the application window, and then choose the application that you want to add from the right hand side of the application window. Now you’ll see the Add Item becoming live just below the Context Menu Location, click on it to add the application to your context menu for your desired location.

ultimate windows context menu customizer

This application is extremely good in Windows 8 because the Metro interface sucks at times of looking commonly used applications.

System Explorer


System Explorer is more or less like in-built Windows Task manager, but it is more efficient than it. You can even run a security check which is checked through Virus Total. Other than end a process or setting the priority you can even check the directory of the running process.

Windows 8 beta task manger doesn’t works like it used to work in Windows 7, so I’ll prefer users to use System Explorer instead of it.

Steps On How To Configure & Use Windows 7?s XP Mode

Posted by Unknown | | Posted in

Now you want to know how to install and run Windows XP Mode on your Windows 7 machine. Windows 7 XP Mode is really a virtual machine running Windows XP that lets you run applications that do not run on Windows 7.

This application can help a company with legacy applications and still upgrade to the latest and greatest iteration of Windows. If this is your situation you can follow this post to see how to get Windows 7 XP Mode and running.
First things first you need to make sure your machine is capable or running XP Mode. You need to have a minimum of 2 Gigabytes of memory and a processor capable of handling virtualization (with AMD-Vâ„¢ or Intel® VT turned on in the BIOS) and at least 15 gigabytes free to install your fully functioning XP environment.

 

If you do not know if your processor can handle it, check out this site to check your Intel processor over here and you can check your AMD processor with this site called Securable. You can also run this application from Microsoft to check your processor and BIOS settings.

 

OK now that we know that we CAN run XP mode lets see what we need to do next. We will need to download two packages from the Internet. The first download is called Windows XP mode for Windows 7. You can download that here from Microsoft. This is a 500MB download.

The next download is called Windows Virtual PC that allows us to run the XP virtual machine which was downloaded above. There the instructions provided by Microsoft state clearly:
Once you have installed Windows 7 XP Mode, click the Windows 7 Start,then select All Programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin setup. For information on how to set up Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode, check out “Running Windows XP Mode with Windows Virtual PC” on the Support and Videos page.

 

Windows 7 XP Mode

 

You will need to specify your username and password for your XP installation as you can see below:

 

Windows 7 XP Mode

 

Windows 7 XP Mode

 

After you have installed both components, click on Virtual Windows XP for it to complete the installation.

 

windows 7 xp

 

You will see a bunch of dialogues as Windows 7 installs your Virtual Windows XP Environment. When it is complete you will have a real Windows XP installation in your virtual machine as you can see below:

 

windows 7 xp

 

You can check your virtual machine settings by right clicking on the file, choosing properties and you will see the following:

 

windows 7 xp

 

You can change your memory allocation and other virtual machine settings here. You should have Auto Publish turned to enable so when you set up a application to work with your XP VM the shortcut can be published to the start menu.

 

xp7

 

To add items to your XP virtual machine, simply drag shortcuts into the start menu under Programs or install them within the XP VM. They will be auto-magically published to your Windows 7 start menu (if Auto-Publish is enabled) under the XP virtual machine shortcut so you can launch them with a single click.

 

What do you use your XP virtual machine for?  Leave us a note in the comments!
