•February 14, 2009 • 1 Comment
Bueno, como me da flojera traducir, solo les resumo que el gigante del Software Microsoft abrira su tienda para dar mejor servicio al cliente y tendra como jefe al actual mero mero de Dreamworks David Porter, quien tambien trabajo ni mas ni menos que para Wal Mart por 25 Años!
Asi que si les va bien, no duden en ver luego una tiendita de estas vendiendo software(juegos, programas) consolas, pcs o cualquier cosa que a microcrap se le ocurra en mi Mexico lindo y querido, yo lo que le veo de bueno es que generara mas trabajos, podremos ir a buscar lo que buscamos pa la pc, o pal ectzbotz, etc. Podemos probarlo, (quiza halla trabajos de eso tambien) podemos hacer sugerencias, y obvio ellos tendran mas dominio publico.
Uds como lo ven?
Software giant taps Wal-Mart veteran to spearhead effort “to create a better PC and Microsoft retail purchase experience.”
With endeavors like the Xbox Live Marketplace and Zune Marketplace, Microsoft has been cutting out the retail middleman for years. However, the Xbox 360 maker’s latest initiative goes a bit further, cutting the retail middleman out of the retail experience.

Microsoft today announced that it will be launching its own chain of stores “to transform the PC and Microsoft buying experience.” In particular, the company mentioned a desire to better articulate and demonstrate the advantages of its products. Additionally, Microsoft hopes “to create deeper engagement with consumers and continue to learn firsthand about what they want and how they buy.”
To oversee the project, Microsoft has appointed David Porter to be the company’s corporate vice president of retail stores. Porter has been head of Dreamworks Animation SKG’s worldwide product distribution since 2007, but it’s likely his prior experience that Microsoft hopes to draw on. Before joining Dreamworks, Porter spent 25 years with retail giant Wal-Mart, eventually working his way up to vice president and general merchandise manager of the chain’s entertainment division.
There is no time frame for when the Microsoft stores might open, and no locations have been determined, but those will be Porter’s first priorities when he begins his work on Monday.
“I am excited about helping consumers make more informed decisions about their PC and software purchases, and we’ll share learnings from our stores with our existing retail and OEM partners that are critical to our success,” Porter said in a statement.

The normal way to terminate Windows Explorer’s processes is to go to Task Manager, look for Explorer.exe under Processes tab, then right clicking on it and select End Process. This actually involves few steps in killing only a single Explorer.exe. If you have multiple Explorer processes running at the same time, then you need to repeat above steps to kill each of them. Now Windows Vista offers you an easy and faster way to kill all of running explorer processes with only few simple clicks.

To kill explorer processes in faster way, follow below steps:

1. Click Start button.

2. Hold CTRL + SHIFT then right click on any area within the red circle as shown below.

3. Exit Explorer will appear in the pop up menu, click on it to terminate all running explorer processes.

Hopefully this simple trick will able to help you work more efficiently in front of your computer screen.

Install a VPN Server on Windows XP

•February 12, 2009 • 3 Comments


Advantages of a VPN

The set-up of a virtual private network enables the secure connection of remote computers through an unreliable connection (Internet), as if they were on the same local area network.
This process is used by a variety of companies to let their users connect to the company network when not at the workplace. A large number of possible uses can be easily imagined:
  • Remote and secure access to the local (company) network for mobile employees
  • Sharing of secure files
  • Local network gaming with remote machines

Setting up a VPN in Windows XP

Windows XP makes it possible to natively manage small virtual private networks; this feature is particularly suitable for small business or family networks (called SOHO, for Small Office/Home Office). To set up a virtual private network, you simply need to install a remote access server (VPN server) on your local area network that can be accessed from the Internet and configure each client to enable it to connect.

Installing a VPN server in Windows XP

In our example we will assume that the machine to be used as VPN server on the local area network has two interfaces – one to the local area network (a network card for example) and one to the Internet (an ADSL connection or a cable connection for example). It will be via its Internet-connected interface that VPN clients will connect to the local area network.
To make it possible for this machine to manage virtual private networks, simply open Network Connections in the Control panel. In the now open window, double-click New connection wizard:
new connection wizard
Then click Next:
new connection wizard
Out of the three choices offered in the window, select “Set up an advanced connection“:
set up an advanced connection
On the next screen select “Accept incoming connections“:
Accept incoming connections
The next screen presents devices you can select for a direct connection. It is possible that no devices will be proposed. Unless you have a special need, you won’t need to select one:
choice of devices
From the next window select “Allow virtual private connections“:
allow virtual private connections
A list of the system’s users appears; simply select or add users authorized to connect to the VPN server:
choose users
Then select the list of protocols authorized via the VPN:
new connection
Click the Properties button associated with the TCP/IP protocol to define the IP addresses the server assigns to the client for the entire session. If the local area network the server is on does not have specific addressing you can let the server automatically determine an IP address. However, if the network has a specific addressing plan, you can define the range of addresses to be assigned:
TCP/IP properties
Configuration of the VPN server is now complete; you can click the Finish button:
Finish

Installing a VPN client in Windows XP

To let a client connect to your VPN server, you need to define all the connection settings (server address, protocols to be used, etc.) The new connection wizard available from the Network connections icon in the control panel enables this configuration:
new connection wizard
Then click Next:
new connection wizard
Out of the three choices offered in the window, select “Connect to the network at my workplace“:
connection to workplace network
On the next screen select “Virtual private network connection“:
virtual private network connection
Then enter a name that best describes the name of the virtual private network you want to connect to:
name of the virtual private network connection
The next screen lets you determine whether a connection needs to be established before connecting to the virtual private network. Most of the time (if you are on a permanent connection or ADSL or cable access), it will not be necessary to establish the connection since the computer is already connected to the Internet; if this is not the case select the connection to be established from the list:
initial connection
To access the remote access server (VPN server or host), you must specify its address (IP address or host name). If it does not have an IP address, you will need to equip it with a dynamic naming system (DynDNS) capable of assigning it a domain name and specify this name in the following field:
host name
Once you have finished defining the VPN connection, a connection window opens asking you for a login and password:
Virtual private network connection prompt
Before connecting, you need to define some settings by clicking the Properties button at the bottom of the window. A window featuring a certain number of tabs then lets you more narrowly configure the connection. In the Network management tab, select the PPTP protocol from the scrollable list; select the (TCP/IPInternet protocol and click Properties:
Network management tab - PPTP protocol
The window that appears lets you define the IP address the client machine will have when connecting to the remote access server. This lets you have addressing that is consistent with the remote addressing. As such, the VPN server is capable of acting as a DHCP server, that is, of automatically providing the VPN client with a valid address. To do so, simply select the “Obtain an address automatically” option:
addressing properties - DHCP
In the event that the client uses the DHCP, if the server assigns an internal IP address, the client will be connected to the workplace network and will benefit from its services but will no longer have Internet access via the interface used since the IP address is not routable. In order to let the client be connected to the VPN and still have Internet access via this connection, the VPN server must be configured such that it shares its connection! The Advanced button lets the client use the VPN server’s gateway in the event that the latter shares it connection:
addressing properties - DHCP
To be able to set up the VPN connection, intermediary firewalls, and particularly XP’s native firewall, need to be configured to let the connection be established. You therefore need to disable Windows XP’s native firewall by doing the following:

  1. In the control panel click Network connections,
  2. Right-click the connection you use,
  3. Select the Advanced settings tab,
  4. Make sure the Internet connection firewall option is disabled.

Aero Peek for all! Windows 7 looking better now

•December 16, 2008 • Leave a Comment

This day, last month, I released a small utility to patch system files in Windows 7 Build 6801, the build given out at this year’s Professional Developers Conference (PDC), to enable some features that Microsoft intentionally tried to hide from the public.
Chris Holmes and I were scratching our heads over Aero Peek, a feature that we knew worked in some builds, but wasn’t working on Blue Badge’d systems. I initially wrote it off as an unfinished quirk but I took another look…
Corrected flowchart.
… and noticed I totally missed a series of checks made in the registry. Each protected feature has a pair of enabling override bits that are checked for, one for those on the Microsoft domain and one for those that aren’t. I’m not sure as to the rationale behind that, but I suspect it was implemented this way to prevent Microsoft employees from leaking working override bits. Overkill in my opinion.
Revision 3 of the tool no longer patches system files, no longer requires administrative permissions, and is no longer locked to any specific build. It inserts all the known protected feature GUIDs as of build 6956 into the current user’s branch of the registry. An anonymous reader confirmed this behavior is similar to the Microsoft-internal win7features.exe utility.
Yes, this will enable Aero Peek in 6801+.
Revision 3 screenshot.
You can download revision 3 for x86 and x64 right now.
To prying eyes: To those that will inevitably reverse engineer the program, please note the creation of the 41579D76-09BA-4ABD-A49A-A2335B9CB706 key, without braces, is not a typo on my part and must remain intact.

USA VS MEXICO en Salt Lake City Utah

•December 13, 2008 • 3 Comments

You may have read here on MLSR yesterday that MLS’s newest Soccer Specific Stadium would play host to one of the most important games the US national team plays.

It appears now that our source regarding Rio Tinto being chosen as a site for the US vs Mexico game has been confirmed courtesy of ESPN Deportes:

MÉXICO — Como lo habíamos adelantado, US Soccer, la Federación de futbol de los Estados Unidos, decidió cambiar la ya tradicional sede de Columbus, Ohio, en donde el equipo de las barras y las estrellas había derrotado a México en las eliminatorias del 2001 y 2005, y anuncia que recibirán al Tricolor en el Río Tinto Stadium de Salt Lake City el dia 11 de Febrero 2009.
Voy a comprar los boletos en cuanto pueda para ir junto a mi esposa… pues vivimos como a 20 minutos del estadio.
ahi luego publico fotos…
Saludos gente!

Te Hallare mi querido amigo, Letra

•December 6, 2008 • 1 Comment

Ya que muchos la buscan y no la encuentran he aqui la letra de la cancion:

TE HALLARÉ MI QUERIDO AMIGO.

Antes que viniéramos al mundo
Vivimos con amigos amados
El concilio se juntó, el plan resultó
El libre albedrío se nos dio

Dijo el abuelo yo me adelanto
A un mundo sin la verdad
Prepararé tu venida al mundo
Gracias a mi tu vivirás

Te hallaré mi querido amigo
Tu nombre encontraré
Acéptame cuando te encuentre
Y pronto te liberaré

Recuerda que el valor de las almas
Es grande en la vista de Dios
Es hermoso encontrar
Los nombres del Señor

Yo pude nacer en este mundo
Y hacer santos convenios
El Evangelio disfruté, al templo entré
Mi vida pude enriquecer

Busqué al abuelo en los registros
Que la Iglesia pudo filmar
Los llevé a su santo templo
Pude al abuelo liberar

Te hallaré mi querido amigo
Tu nombre encontraré
Acéptame cuando te encuentre
Y pronto te liberaré

Recuerda que el valor de las almas
Es grande en la vista de Dios
Es hermoso encontrar
Los nombres del Señor

Hay varias versiones, creo que depende del pais la han ido cambiando, cuando yo la conoci en el CCM de Mexico tenia otra letra aunque muy parecida a esta… Si encuentro otra version la publicare aqui.
Saludos
