Facebook spam-link
Jul 3rd
Please be aware of a malicious link making rounds on Facebook. The title is:
“The *SHOCKING* TATTOO That Got This Girls PARENTS ARRESTED”
The link leads to hxxp://thecraziesttattoos.blogspot.com/ which shows an image, purposely mimicking an add. If you click the ‘Skip this add’ or anywhere on the image you are redirected to; hxxp://ly9.net/4/4jsVF3 (which resolves to: hxxp://allhqpics.com/the-craziest-tat-youll-ever-see.html)
On that page you will see yet another image asking you to acknowledge you are, or are over 18. Clicking anywhere on that image will actually instruct Facebook you like that page – and that will post it on your wall. Your friends then click on it – and so on.
More information after the link (geek-alert!)
Prolonging battery-life on the HD2
Apr 13th
For the last couple of days I have been running around with a program called BandSwitch installed, which disconnects idle mobile internet connections (according to your settings) Doing so can seriously prolong the battery-life on your HD2. So far, I havent’ seen or found any negative side-effects and it does seem to prolong to do what it advertises.
The URL to get it is: http://www.commmgrpro.com/jsp/main_frame.jsf
However, the program is not free – it comes with a 14 day trial.
The user-interface may seem chaotic at first, but it’s a mater of starting it (once) and then hitting “Auto” and you are set.
“Drop Down”, Quake-style command prompt for Windows – Instructables – DIY, How To, tech
Jul 18th
I just had to sharea this one very cool thing:
“Drop Down”, Quake-style command prompt for Windows – Instructables – DIY, How To, tech.
It’s a Quake-style console for use in Windows. Now you might think why would you want that? Well it autohides as soon as you click anywhere or ALT+TAB to another program, but keeps running in the background. It also gives you the console the moment you press WIN+~ (tilde)
I personally grabbed the file from: http://www.mediafire.com/?0e3kxld19qd
Works great, and I highly recommend it to people who, such as myself, frequently use the DOS-prompt… err I mean the Quake-console ;)
