Remove Boot.com Virus....

Certain day ago i was suffering a virus which contineously crashes my windows explorer i was too much depressed by this virus but later i came know this is boot.com virus.....and I learned the way to remove it too. so here I am sharing those tips.

The following instruction you shoud follow after a Fresh reboot or in safe mode.

1) First go to the problem drive(s) through the Explore option.

2) Click TOOLS -> FOLDER OPTIONS.

3) Click the button which says "Show hidden files and folders".

4) UNCHECK the following boxes: Hide extensions for known file types Hide protected operrating system files

5) Find and delete the autorun.ini file and the resycled folder on the root directory of all affected drives.

 6) Check whether “c:\windows\system32\dllcache” for boot.com file and delete it if there is.

7) Check Whether “c:\windows\prefetch” for boot.com file and delete if if there is.

8) Delete all files and folder from c:\windows\temp (If some files may not delete, it's ok, they’re in use by the system and not virus files.)

9) Delete all files and folder from c:\Documents and Settings\[USER PROFILE]\Local Settings\Temp (Again, some files may not delete, don’t worry.)

10) Now,go to Run -> Regedit.

11) Make sure you are at the very first entry of the registry hive. (your Computer should be highlighted) then click EDIT -> FIND

12) Search for “boot.com”. If it finds an entry, delete it. Keep hitting F3 until you’ve deleted all instances of boot.com in the entire registry.

13) Scroll the left comumn back up to the top and hilight the My Computer again at the top of the registry hive.

14) Click Edit -> Find again and search for ‘resycled’ and repeat as in step 13, deleting the entries as it finds them. (I found 2 of each) 15) Close registry editor and try opening the infected drives. They should work now.

Ok have a nice day............. Keep on Blogging............

What new in Exchange 2010.

Mail Exchage server 2010 is heating up the market......expertise are getting curious to know abt it more....they are looking what the more change it has been made on it then the successful product Exchange server 2007. Here some new features of  Exchange Server 2010.

Schedule Task Manually.......how?

Tasks,processes,commands can be scheduled in Windows through Task Scheduler.

But is it possible to do this through few lines using the command prompt?

This is where the "at" command is useful

Administrator access is needed to schedule,modify or delete tasks using the "at" command.

Suppose the box needs to be shutdown at 7 pm today,this can be done by simply typing 

-->at 19:00 shutdown -s

This will add this particular task in scheduler's queue which can be listed by typing just "at".

I recommend to first check the queue using this command to make sure there are no previous similar jobs queued to avoid conflict.

What if some files need to be copied from one folder to the other at a specified time automatically?

Again "at" is to the rescue.

To copy all files from the Documents folder to the Somedata folder at midnight, type the following line, and then press ENTER:

-->at 00:00 cmd /c copy C:\Documents\*.* C:\Somedata

If you want to delete scheduled tasks from the queue,issue the at /delete command,just issuing /delete will remove all scheduled jobs.

-->at 1 /delete deletes task with id 1

-->:at 2 /delete deletes task with id 2

-->at /delete will delete all pending tasks

Feel free to try out the various nuances of at as it can be very quick and powerful to automate routine tasks

SEADRAGON:for a photomania

Got digital images with enough megapixels to feel like the real estate space of the screen is insufficient? Well a project from Microsoft Live Labs, now you have a way to do justice by your pictures, by transforming them into zoomable content. In this regard, all you need to do is leverage the new Seadragon service that went live on July 30th, 2009. The service is designed to enable end users to transform virtually any web image into what Bill Crow, the Seadragon group manager at Microsoft Live Labs, referred to as a Seadragon-powered zoomable photo experience. Following the Seadragon transformation, the resulting content can be embedded into every webpage. 

 “It’s really easy to create your own zoomable photos. It’s free and it doesn’t require you to sign up for anything. All you need is the URL to your web image. Paste the URL at seadragon.com and click one button. Depending on the resolution of your image, it may take a moment or two to create the zoomable version. You can then copy the link to the zoomable viewer page for your image on seadragon.com and share it on Twitter, your Facebook status, or anywhere else you choose. Or, you can do what I did for the photo above and copy a one-line script that lets you embed the zoomable viewer on your own web page, blog posting, eBay advertisement, or other web destination,” Crow noted. 

Crow is by no means exaggerating when he says any URL to an image. Got a website? A blog? A Flickr account? They will all do. But the Seadragon content will deliver a far superior user experience to any static image. First off there is a matter of the sheer performance delivered. Seadragon content loads almost instantaneously, and can be navigated seamlessly with no glitches or speed deterioration, irrespective of the size of the original image. The second advantage is that users can easily jump from one detail to another in an image as far as the zoom action will permit it. And the best thing about it is that even though Deep Zoom is traditionally a feature associated with Silverlight, even users who don't have Silverlight installed can still access the content. 

“The Seadragon viewer isn’t your average zoomable viewer; it includes some cool new technology that delivers stunning performance but still makes it accessible to virtually everyone,” Crow stated. “ If you have Silverlight installed (and if you don’t, you should), the viewer uses Silverlight Deep Zoom to deliver a buttery-smooth full screen zooming experience. But even if you don’t have Silverlight, the viewer will still operate using our Seadragon Ajax technology. The appearance and features are identical, but the performance will be a bit slower than with Silverlight Deep Zoom. This new dual-mode viewer makes sharing high quality, full resolution images easier than ever, without turning away any of your potential audience.”
