    Posted on October 18th, 2008 nordybaby No comments

    I burned a CD for a monopoly game i downloaded. When i put it in it initiated autorun and i installed the game. However, when i’m ready to play the game i get a message saying, “Wrong disc inserted. Please insert the original “Monopoly” CD/DVD.”

    I have added 1 More Of My Favorite Greasemonkey Scripts to this List

    First few words for those who want to know what greasemonkey is and what wonders it can do, Greasemonkey is Firefox add-on which let you edit the way web looks and works with the help of wide variety of already available scripts and you can also write your own. Greasemonkey works simply scripts available are assigned for specific urls where it will only work and javascript change the functionality or visually the way webpage looks (it depends for what script was made)

    To use Greasemonkey first you need Firefox then Greasemonkey (install) simply click on install script and Greasemonkey will do rest of the job simply enjoy changing the web your own way.

    According to BlogsDNA

    Whenever you will download any Greasemonkey script, your Greasemonkey Firefox add-on will automatically detects site for which that script is applicable and applys that script to the site as soon as you open it.

    As promised the following are 21 most useful and best of the best Greasemonkey scripts which can change the whole user experience of any specific web application. (i chosen them from best lists out there worth 2 hours i found some new and better ones)

    1. Youtube Googler (Install Script)

    This script is so useful when you always want to see videos in bigger size still not full screen but moderately large so pixel don’t explode in the video. This greasemonkey script makes youtube more look like Google Videos making the video area covering most of the screen (which is obviously a user concern on that page) striping comment area and video suggestion all together on the left just like a sidebar image reference available below.

    2. Youtube Alternative Video Player (Install Script)

    Do you hate auto playing of youtube videos like i do? when I am searching for some videos i open 3 or maybe 4 videos at once then i have to manually pause them to see any one of them which is totally un acceptable. we have another option with this script, it replaces the stock Youtube Video Player with one that keep the video paused until ‘Play’ button is pressed but it keep buffering the video without playing them so when you press play you get already loaded video.

    3. Download Youtube Video III (Install Script)

    If you are everyday youtube user you must came across videos that you badly want to save on your hard disk for future usage. If yes give this script a try it will fulfill all your video downloading needs very nicely when you click on download video icon (that appears with icons under video after installing script) the download pop up will come up from where you can take video to your download manager if you want faster downloads. Linux users need to Right Click and choose ‘Save as’.

    4. Youtube “Lights Out” (Install Script)

    This script is eye saver I say sometimes video is too dark or too light that you literally want youtube page’s base colour to be black so you can concentrate on video and watch it properly without hurting your eyes. well now you can do something about it this script gives you a little button to switch the lights off and watch the video easily when you click on ‘Lights Out’ button everything on the page (except video) turns dark gray when you click again everything turns Black. When it’s too dark and you can find ‘Lights Out’ button don’t panic clicking anywhere on the page will turn lights on.

    5. Flickr “Lights Out” (Install Script)

    Flickr Lights Out works same as ‘Youtube Lights Out’ so you can watch pictures easily when lighting condition is not all good matching with picture the only difference is ‘Light Out’ button is on top of picture.

    6. Text Areabackup (Install Script)

    Remembering everything you write on the web is not as easy as it sounds this script gona ease your mind. Text Areabackup work as a remembering machine while you browse the web and putting your emails, website addresses in short everything you write will be save in a virtual memory of this script. (Note: this script don’t work with Gmail)

    7. Google Image Relinker with Mouseover (Install Script)

    This is one of my favourite script because of its function and how much ease it gives when you searching for images in Google Image Search. Normally you when you search for images you have to do a lot of mouse clicks to get to the actual image but now things are a little bit interesting when this script is installed you just ‘Mouse Over’ or we say ‘Hover’ over any image thumbnail and see the image preview first then click on it and you get to the image directly instead of clicking again for ‘full size image’ its mean only one click and you get the image. How sweet!

    8. Google Account Multi-Login (Install Script)

    I am using more than two gmail accounts one for work purpose and one my personal so i had to find this script for multiple account usage at once because signing out and signing in again isn’t as easy as it sounds and waste bit of time too. After installing script your ‘Sign Out’ will turn into drop down box with a couple of options there you can add as many accounts as much you want and switch them with a single click of mouse.

    9. GoogleTagCloudMaker (Install Script)

    GTCM is really very useful script when you can’t decide proper keyword of your desired search result. It makes a tag cloud at your right pane with suggestion of many relevant keywords to choose from this also help you finding related search results of what you are looking for.

    10. Google Ads Remover+ (Install Script)

    Sometimes ads are really annoying specially when your connection is slow and web page stuck when it’s loading ads. Now you can remove Google ads from any website you want for faster browsing as a side note I won’t recommend disabling ads because sometimes you really find good resources and considerable product offers out of them so if you have no problem with them then leave as they are. Other usage of this script is to configure it to disable ads from a specific url not the whole web just like i did it with my website so I don’t accidentally click them and penalize for click fraud.

  • Configuring XP to Automatically Login

    Posted on October 5th, 2008 admin No comments

    Okay, I have a temporary internet connection for a few days, so I won’t write this myself.
    Original Post comes from http://www.techiesouls.com/2008/08/26/489/

    If you have a Personal Computer which no one else you use then you really don’t need putting password at windows login instead you can configure it to directly pop in you desktop whenever you switch it on. It can strip a few seconds from your total boot time if its really not necessary.

    Configuration is so easy and takes 10 seconds max and 3 steps:

    1. Go to Start button in your taskbar > Click Run > and type ‘CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2’ and click Ok.

    2. User Accounts window will be opened Select the User which you want to be automatically logged in every time windows starts (in my case it’s Administrator) after selecting Uncheck ‘User must enter username and password to use this computer’ just click ok now.

    3. Another window will open asking you Username & Password just enter you login information and hit Ok. You are done now your windows will always be automatically login and won’t ask you for password.
