This is for Vista as well as XP.
It worked for me, no guarantees, but it worked
Go to the start button,
select run
type in prefetch
click ok
when the screen comes up with a list
delete all of them
this should take care of the superfetch problem (There is a little more to superfetch in Vista than in XP= but I don’t know any more than what I posted) good luck and I hope this works for you, it is much easier than doing a complete restore. Continue Reading

Windows Keyboard Shortcuts
I like to figure out the fastest way to do things. I hope these things will help you become the power user that lies within. These keystrokes have been tested on Windows XP Professional. Some may not work on older systems (although most do). Please note that Ctrl is short for the Control key. Continue Reading

| The .htaccess is a simple method that allows you to customise the way the webserver works on a per directory basis. The .htaccess file is a simple ASCII text file, which when placed in a certain directory in your webspace, will cause the webserver to use that configuration on all files in that directory and any files in any subdirectories.
When you have finished creating your .htaccess code, click on the “Select All” button and copy (CTRL + C) and paste (CTRL + V) the code into a text editor and save the file as .htaccess. The .htaccess file should have the name “.htaccess” (all lowercase), and can either be created using a command line text editor when logged in using ssh or can be uploaded by ftp.

Quite some time ago, I had an argument with a friend who is a big fan of Microsoft products. While I’m no Xbox hater, I am not very fond of some of their more shoddy products such as Internet Explorer. He was justifying the shortcomings of IE6, saying that absolute positioning is rarely used in web pages, and that :hover pseudo class is not really that useful.
For the most part, he was right. Very few websites I have seen actually make extensive use of absolute positioning. By default, if you do not specify a mode, web browsers will use static positioning. This is what I used in nearly all the sites I have done. For most real-world scenarios, extra features are not needed. Still, good browsers adhere to standards as much as possible. There is even the Acid2 Test to determine how well various browsers measure up.
In that same vein of relatively useless, but somewhat amusing CSS implimentation, I have whipped up this little demo. It works in Firefox, Opera and Safari, but fails in the big blue E. Those who are proned to seizures might not want to move the mouse around too quickly. Use at your own risk:
Demo: Absolute CSS Boxes
There you have it folks, an impractically enjoyable use of CSS! By the way, these effects do not use images or JavaScript. It uses only a single file, containing valid XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS. Feel free to take the code and do what you want with it. Don’t forget to check it out in Internet Explorer, and show all of your friends why they need to switch to a different browser.
thanks

$_SERVER[’PHP_SELF’], $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], and $_SERVER[’SCRIPT_NAME’] all behave in similar ways, they return information about what file is being used. When exposed to some differnt scenarios, you can see in some cases they do behave differently. This can help you decide which is best for what you need in your script. Continue Reading

InterAKT mark-up language
The InterAKT Dynamic Data provides automatically generated mark-ups for dynamic data, from the source you specify. These mark-ups are replaced at runtime by the actual value, and are taken into account when doing the operations they are involved in. It is used in MX Kollection 3 to provide a unified mark-up language for dynamic values on all server models. Using the InterAKT mark-up knowledge also reduces the need for developers to know a specific programming language. Continue Reading
