    Tips for XP


    Limit of 10 connections in Windows XP SP2 +


    After the appearance of the virus Blaster, Sasser and Sober, Microsoft and others limited to 10 the number of open sockets outgoing per second (in XP SP2 +) provided they are also at the same destination port.
    It is clear that the limit of connections has not been established by Microsoft without a reason. If you use a PC as makina down and write files from time to time, passing this post. Does not increase the maximum connection limit if you really do not need.
    ! The changes in the connection limit is under your responsibility!
    According to Jose Manuel Tella Llop (MVP - Windows) "This does not in any way P2P programs" in which I disagree profoundly. It will be nice in your P2P! pq pq then I would like to know in my Event Viewer PC q pra use the P2P (clean of viruses / worms / etc) appears again and again about the ID 4226:
    Quote
    TCP / IP reached security limit imposed on the number of simultaneous TCP connection attempts.
    Note: To open Event Viewer Start> Run> Eventvwr.msc and click on the registration system.
    P2P part, suppose that you are forced to perform a scan from an XP + SP2. Obviously you are using at least one anonymous proxy. And start scanning linearly soar 4226. What happened? Q as your XP opens a tutti plen sockets with the same destination port (useasé 8080 proxy for example) by more than 10 seconds? Buffff lot more depending on the type of scan.
    Bit Torrent, P2M, Emule. Etc. ..
    SOLUTION:
    After searching unsuccessfully in the registry key that I had to change with that key does not exist, but also a German who has hexo a parxe for this, increasing the limit to 50: http://www.lvllord.de/ ? lang = en & url = downloads
    Fio as I closed the same code as a mule down from the exe I open my compiler and after a couple of Debuggers already have my limit at 369 for this pc are more than enough Smiley
    Programartelo yourself if you want the files you need to change are:
    Quote
    C: \ WINDOWS \ system32 \ drivers \ Tcpip.sys
    C: \ WINDOWS \ system32 \ dllcache \ Tcpip.sys

    Installing Windows XP Desatendida


    Insert the CD running winxp, and Setupmgr.exe are deploy.cab on file in the \ support \ tools, click Next and choose "Create Answer File" then "Create unattended installation" Then we say We use that kind of WINXP .. (Proffesional, Home Edition ..) click Next again and select "Completely Automated" Finally, we say that is an answer file for installation. and accept the license. And we just kedaria Fill the gaps with key names ekipo ... and can save it in A: (allegedly disketera) We krearan 2 files (unattend.txt and unattend.bat) running unattend.bat to start the installation.
    There are several things you can do to improve our Installation:
    In the area of [data] of the response file can modify or add the following:
    Autopartition = 1, we ask for the space of
    partitions. If we put in all the space used 0
    available on the disk to a partition.
    • In the area of [Unattended]
    Repartition = "NO" We ask for the type of system
    files (TFS, FAT). If you use automatic mode (YES) can not choose the FAT file system, NTFS only.
    WaitForReboot = "NO" eliminate screen waiting 15 seconds for the restart.
    Do you see the Administrator account

    First, navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ Winlogon \ SpecialAccounts \ UserList
    If there is not create a new value: Second mouse button -> new value is DWORD, we name -> Manager -> OK. Double click on it and we value DECIMAL -> 1 If there is only tendermos to change the value by January 1.
    Accelerating NTFS volumes

    Disabling the creation of 8.3 names on NTFS partitions and updating the Last Access Time Stamp field each time you access a folder accelerate the performance of NTFS volumes to NTFS with a lot of files named a long and constant access to them, we can significantly increase performance if you disable the creation of file names in 8.3 format. However, if Setup old 16-bit application stops working, we can revive the creation of 8.3 file names on a temporary basis so that the installation was carried out successfully. To do so, start editing tool registry system, using "regedit.exe" from the menu Start / Run and locate the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ FileSystem. They will create or modify the DWORD value "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation" the content "1" to disable the creation of 8.3 filenames. Similarly, when Widnows When XP access a directory on an NTFS partition, updates the field Last Access Time Stamp (conducted last access) in the MFT for each of the subdirectories found. This way you travel around a folder with many subdirectories, speed scanning files decrease. To disable this feature, we'll begin the editing tool registry system, using "regedit.exe" from the menu Start / Run and locate the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ FileSystem. They will create or modify the DWORD value "NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate" whose content is "1" to disable this update to NTFS.

    Accelerate the exploration of networking equipment and increase the overall performance

    Since the days of Windows 2000, there is a bug in which to explore the contents of remote computers, the system searches in addition to the shared files scheduled tasks of the machine, so we may experience delays of up to 30 seconds when trying to view files from a shared network system that does not look for scheduled tasks in networking equipment to explore their shared resources, the tool will begin editing system, using "regedit.exe" from the menu Start / Run and locate the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / Software / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Explorer / RemoteComputer / NameSpace / (D6277990 ...). Firstly, within the Registry menu, select the option Export branch so that we can restore this feature if necessary. Then delete the key. NOTE: When you delete this key, remove the ability to view and manage scheduled tasks on remote computers. Also related to the performance of network connections, we can increase the number of buffers that the redirector reserved for network performance, thus increasing the flow of data that can manage. Each thread extra 1k setup makes use of additional non-paged memory, but only if the application is using them. To set the number of buffers and wires additional tool begin editing system, using "regedit.exe" from the menu Start / Run and locate the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ System \ CurrentControlSet \ Services \ LanmanWorkstation \ Parameters. They will create or modify a DWORD values "MaxCmds and MaxThreads, whose content should be the same in both, the default is 15 and can specify the range that goes from 0 to 255.
    Change the product key on Windows XP

    1. Run regedit and find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ WindowsNT \ CurrentVersion \ WPAEvents
    2. Open key oobetimer, delete the hex value CA, and close regedit
    3. Go to Start, Run and type% systemroot% \ system32 \ OOBE \ msoobe.exe / a
    4. We trigger the display of Windows XP, select activation by phone, click on Change product key and enter the new password and click update. (The keys that start with F and D have been baneadas by Microsoft SP1)
    5. Run again% systemroot% \ system32 \ OOBE \ msoobe.exe / a, and this will end the activation process.
    Remove MSN Messenger System

    If you do not use Messenger you'll want to remove it. The easiest way to do this is to click the Start button -> run:
    RunDll32 Advpack.dll, LaunchINFSection% windir% \ INF \ msmsgs.inf, BLC.Remove
    Once cleared and restarted the computer is not happy trail Messenger.

    Improve network file transfers

    Windows normally limit the amount of RAM that the system may be used for entry and exit data network connections, which can change by editing the registry
    The usefulness of this adjustment questionable for users who do not have the system installed on any server, because basically this setting improves performance input / output of the computer when you are making a large amount of file transfers and similar operations. This setting will not make much on systems that do not have large amounts of memory, but systems with more than 256 MB of RAM generally find better performance by setting this value between 16 and 32 Mb The default is 0.5Mb (512Kb) . To change the automatic adjustment of these settings, start the registry editing tool system, with the command "regedit.exe" in the menu Start / Run. Locate the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ Session Manager \ Memory Management and create or modify the DWORD value named "IoPageLockLimit" (without quotation marks) with a number, whose value is equivalent to the maximum of bytes to be used for entry and exit, so we have to multiply the number of megabytes x 1024 x 1024
    NOTE: Changing this setting may cause stability problems with system devices, such as problems related to OpenGL or SCSI, in which case back to the default setting.
    Improve bandwidth XP Professional

    Windows XP reserves 20% of available bandwidth in order to run applications. The "restraint" is produced by the developer called the package QoS (Quality of Service - Quality of Service), responsible for the optimization of local networks.
    However, for users who only have a PC at home, QoS is not a necessary function, but the opposite. Windows XP reserve 20% of the bandwidth even if the user cancels the role QoS. You can also choose Uninstall QoS Packet Scheduler if we have no local network.
    Summing up is to say: The QoS (quality of service) is a fairly common on the Internet, is used to ensure that transfers do not block each other. In Windows XP protocol reservation up to 20% of the bandwidth for high priority packets, so that they can always transmitted. This allows for example, 2 files can be downloaded from two servers at once, while using IRC or IM and send messages that we send arrive without delay. If there are no high priority packets, that bandwidth is used to transmit standard packages.
    1) Log on as an administrator.
    2) Start, Run, type: gpedit.msc
    3) They are the Group, go to Settings Team.
    4) Administrative Templates
    5) Network (Network)
    6) QoS Packet Scheduler
    7) Double click on Limit bandwidth reserved
    Cool place to enable and 0% in bandwidth.
    9) Apply and OK
    10) Go to network properties and check that it is marking the QoS Packet Scheduler.

    Windows Messenger on a router or firewall

    If we connect to the Internet through a firewall or a router will have found that some features of Windows Messenger does not work correctly. To solve this problem would have to configure the firewall or router using the following ports
    Video, audio, and video calls from PC to teléfonouertos UDP 5004-65535. Because the transmission of flows is staying in this dynamic port range, we must find ways to open them all.
    Whiteboard and Application Sharing: TCP Port 1503
    Transferring files: TCP 6891-6900. These ports allow up to 10 simultaneous transfers per user. If only we open the port 6891, you can only make a single transfer simultaneously.
    Remote Assistance: TCP Port 3389
    Add or Remove Programs additional

    Originally discovered a trick for Windows 2000 but continues to run on Windows XP is the dark why Microsoft has eliminated the system setup program to the user to specify the components of Windows to be installed
    Therefore, if we move to the panel Add / Remove Windows Components in the Control Panel will not get the complete list of applications you can add or delete. Fortunately this problem is easily solved. We will move to the folder% SYSTEMROOT% \ INF there and locate the file "sysoc.inf" which opened with the notepad ( "notepad.exe"). If we look at the section [Components], we find that some of the items containing the words "hide" or "Hide" and therefore not shown on the panel Add / Remove Windows Components.
    [Version]
    Signature = "$ Windows NT $"
    DriverVer = 06/26/2001, 5.1.2505.0
    [Components]
    NtComponents = ntoc.dll, NtOcSetupProc, 4
    WBEM = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, wbemoc.inf, hide, 7
    Display = desk.cpl, DisplayOcSetupProc, 7
    Fax = fxsocm.dll, FaxOcmSetupProc, fxsocm.inf, 7
    NetOC = netoc.dll, NetOcSetupProc, netoc.inf, 7
    iis = iis.dll, OcEntry, Iis.inf, 7
    AccessOpt = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, optional.inf, HIDE, 7
    Pinball = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, pinball.inf, HIDE, 7
    MSWordPad = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, wordpad.inf, HIDE, 7
    [...]
    To solve this problem, make a global search in the document and remove the chain, "hide" wherever it appears. Then save the file, we will implement the panel Add / Remove Windows Components and check listed for installation or removal, components that remained hidden until then.
    Clear the option of shared documents

    To remove the My Computer option Shared Documents must follow these steps:
    Click the Start button, then Run and type Regedit, then click the OK button.
    Now go to the branch register.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \
    MyComputer \ NameSpace \ Delegate Folders
    They located the branch (59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee and delete)
    Reboot the PC.
    Show Desktop button

    Windows XP like Windows 98 or Me offers the possibility to show the desktop from the Quick Launch bar, but sometimes mistakenly removes the button, if that's the case and want to get the button follow these steps:
    Double-clicking on My Computer and then on local disk where the operating system is installed (usually in C, then you double-click the Windows folder and inside this folder in the System.
    Now find the Show Desktop file.
    Show Desktop Drag the file with the mouse right to its location on the Quick Launch bar and release, then choose the option Create Shortcut icons here and ready now button where you'll always was.
    Rename the Trash

    To rename the Trash follow these steps:
    Open Notepad or any text editor and copy the following:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ CLSID \ (645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E) \ ShellFolder]
    "Attributes" = hex: 50,01,00,20
    "CallForAttributes" = dword: 00000000
    and save it as Rename papelera.reg (remember to put the extension *. reg)
    After running the saved file, go to the Recycle Bin icon and click the right mouse, you will now see a new "name change", click on the option and put it the name.
    If you now want to remove the option of "renaming" opens the notepad and copy the following:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ CLSID \ (645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E) \ ShellFolder]
    "Attributes" = hex: 40,01,00,20
    "CallForAttributes" = dword: 00000000
    Save such as undo papelera.reg name change and execute the file, it will not appear that option.

    Change the font of your Internet Browser

    You may want to see the word through your Internet browser to a custom, that is a font or size determined to change these options must follow these steps.
    Open your Internet browser
    Then click on the Tools menu and then Internet Options.
    Then click on the button and the window that appears you can choose the font you want.
    To save your changes, click on the OK button in the two windows.
    Access to MS-DOS

    Windows XP by using the non-MS-DOS so when we use it for a program based on MS-DOS must access it.
    and although in some cases we can find out if we click on the Start button, then Programs, then Accessories Hence find the command prompt. But if you do not see why not worry because this way you'll also get to do this do the following:
    Clicking the Start button, then Run.
    Type CMD and press OK
    Ready to see the MS-DOS window.
    On and Off the Windows key

    Windows XP offers the ability to disable the Windows key, which is among the keys "Ctrl" and "Alt" the Winkey is easily identifiable by the flag of Windows. Sometimes you can defuse it be interesting, especially if you play with your PC and accidentally press this button and you know what happens, to activate or deactivate the following steps:
    Click on the Start button, then Run, type regedit and click the OK button.
    Now go open the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USERS / SOFTWARE / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Policies / Explorer. They will create or modify the DWORD NoWinKeys with the value "1" to disable the use of the key and "0" to activate it again.
    If there is no need to create NoWinkeys entry as shown in the picture and assign the value "0" to disable or "1" to enable it.
    If the entry is created only then should we change the value "0" or "1".

    As we find out if permission to modify the Regedit

    To modify the Regedit should have a special permit, this is achieved only when you open the computer as Administrator, or if the user configuration is allowed this option, but there is a way to find out as follows:
    Clicking on the Start button, then Run
    Type Regedit and click the OK button.
    Now you put them on the key you want to edit and click the right mouse and then Permissions.
    At the top of the screen shows the Users and Groups, click on whether each of them will at the bottom of that same window that permits are granted each of them.
    To change any of them may need to click on the Advanced button.
    How to change the frequency of the Monitor

    Sometimes we have noticed that our monitor flashes, especially with windows very much alive, as the window white, yellow, etc.. this does not always happen, but sometimes and especially after formatting the hard drive and have reloaded the operating system, this happens to remove that annoying flicker, follow these steps:
    Clicking the mouse right in a free area of the desktop and then Properties.
    In the Properties window click on the Settings tab.
    Then you click the Advanced button and then the Monitor tab.
    In the Monitor Setup section to select the frequency, until these are not annoying flicker, in this case as you can see is set to 75 Hertz.
    Finally click OK to effect the changes and find that there is no longer blink.
    Getting older programs to run on Windows XP

    If an old application creates problems when you run Windows XP, you can configure the compatibility properties manually so that the program is running in a different way, such as Windows 95 or having a screen resolution and different. To set the compatibility properties for a program must follow these steps:
    Clicking the mouse right in the executable file or the shortcut to the program executable file, and then click Properties.
    Check the box Run this program in compatibility mode.
    Give the list, select an operating system on which you run the program without problems.
    If necessary, change the display settings and resolution, or disable the Windows XP visual themes.
    Run the program again when you've finished changing the configuration. Adjust the compatibility settings again if the program still does not run smoothly: a program to present problems in Windows 2000 may have none in Windows 98.
    Creating a Custom Screen Saver

    A great way to use your digital photos is to create a slide show to use as screensavers. You'll like it if you follow these steps
    Clicking the mouse right in a free area of the desktop, and then click Properties.

    In the list screen protector, clicking pictures of my presentation.
    Click Settings to make any adjustments, such as how often to change the images, what size should be used and transition effects between images, and then click OK.
    Now the screen will display random images taken from the My Pictures folder.
    How to uninstall Windows XP

    Due to the large number of problems that are taking some of the users of Windows XP, when you uninstall the operating system, I will try to be as accurate as possible with this article to uninstall Windows XP.
    If we have reached the point where Windows XP does not allow us to enter or access the desktop operating system, but we can enter it in Safe Mode, and when installed it did from Windows 98 or Windows Me, The best thing is to uninstall Windows XP. The correct way to do this is:
    The first thing we have to do is choose an option in Safe Mode and once we show the desktop.
    We click on the Start button, then Run, then type osuninst.exe and press the OK button, the wizard to remove or restore.
    If we can not access the Run command, we must seek osuninst.exe file that is located in the C: \ Windows, and we double-click on its icon to display the wizard.
    Now it's easy to just have to go through the wizard to uninstall Windows XP until the end, once you've done and then restart the computer again when we will enter it into the operating system from which we had upgraded to Windows XP .
    It allows us to go into Windows, but we want to remove Windows XP
    To uninstall Windows XP and keep the earlier version that had installed Windows 98 or Windows Me, we will do the following:
    We click on the Start button and then Control Panel.
    Once we are in the Control Panel, double-click on the Add / Remove Programs icon.
    Select the option to uninstall Windows XP and click the Change / Remove button, and from here we follow the instructions in the wizard.
    When finished the computer will reboot again and see our previous version of Windows 98 or Windows Me
    Does not allow us to access the operating system in any way
    If the problem we have is very big it may not allow us to access the operating system in any way and have to reformat the hard drive and reload the operating system again. Or just want to reformat the hard disk to reinstall the operating system, we must do the following:
    The first thing you need to know is if the Windows XP operating system is installed with the FAT or NTFS, suppose we are with the FAT or FAT 32.
    Turn off the computer and introduce a boot disk for Windows 98 or Windows Me, and start the computer.
    Once I load the drivers will stay in A: \> Now type format c: and press the Enter key to start formatting the hard disk.
    Once the format the hard disk and can reinstall the operating system.

    How to prevent users of the computer downloads from Internet

    Windows XP offers the ability to prevent users of a computer, downloads files from the Internet, for that we need to use the Windows registry as follows:
    We click on the Start button and then Run
    Type regedit and press the OK button.
    Now we move into the record by the following key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Software / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Internet Settings / Zones
    At the opening of the last entry in Zones will see several folders, which interests us is the folder 3
    Now we click on the folder No. 3 in the right pane and see the values that have partners.
    Look for the 1803 value we double click on it in the window that shows wrote the number 3 and press the OK button. The next time someone tries to download something from the Internet will receive a warning that security does not allow you to download this file.
    Note: This restriction only affects the user that it has the restriction, and of course have to do this trick from the very restricted user account.
    As restrict applications that users can use

    When using a shared computer with other users, you may want to restrict the applications that can use the other PC users for various reasons, the correct way to do this is:
    We click on the Start button, then Run, then type Regedit and press the OK button.
    Now look for the following string to open it:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER / SOFTWARE / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Policies / Explorer
    Now create or modify the DWORD RestricRun with the value "1" to activate the restriction, and the value "0" to disable.
    Then we will have to define which applications will be restricted. To do this we will go to the key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER / SOFTWARE / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Policies / Explorer / RestricRun
    At this point enter alphanumeric characters whose names are consecutive numbers and content have the names of the executable for each application.
    To finish close the Registry Editor and restart your computer.
    The problem is that if you only want to disable one, the task of enabling the rest is very long ... But there is also "DisallowRun" which indicated if it blocks the program allowing the other to operate normally, and it creates like the previous one except the name of the key, which is already showing. I do not know if this is useful, but when looking for something like this, note that all pages had the same information until they finally found the key to "DisallowRun". Fortunately therefore hope that we understand.
    First let's the key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER / SOFTWARE / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Policies / Explorer
    Now create or modify the DWORD value DisallowRun with "1" to activate the restriction, and the value "0" to disable.
    Then we will have to define which applications will be restricted. To do this we will go to the key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER / SOFTWARE / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Policies / Explorer / DisallowRun
    At this point enter alphanumeric characters whose names are consecutive numbers and content have the names of the executable for each application.
    To finish close the Registry Editor and restart your computer.
    Using the keyboard with mouse

    If the mouse does not work, do not worry. You can use the keyboard to navigate around the Windows XP desktop. The keys to that are getting used to the Windows key, the cursor keys and Enter key.
    For example, if you turn off the computer to solve the problem with the mouse:
    Press the Windows key.
    Press the directional arrow up once to highlight Shut Down, and then press ENTER.
    Press the direction up and down to select Shut Down menu, and then press ENTER.
    Use the Esc key to cancel.
    Check and fix errors on your hard drive

    The error checking on the hard drive has changed a little with respect to the ancestors of Windows XP, but the way is the same, we will do this as follows:
    We double-click the My Computer icon, then select the unit in which we will check for errors.
    Right-click with your mouse on the selected drive, then Properties.
    Then select the Tools tab and then on the Check Now button.
    Most likely, we advise that you can not perform this action now and what will the next time you restart Windows, then we accept and close all the windows open.
    Windows reboot and have the option to boot for a few seconds to cancel the check for errors on your hard drive if we do nothing, seconds after the start checking.
    At the end we will report the results during a short period of time and start Windows.
    Set your browser to update automatically

    You can configure your browser to check for new updates, so it must follow these steps.
    Open your Internet browser
    Then click on the Tools menu and then Internet Options.
    Then click on the Advanced tab and look for the option "Automatically check for Internet Explorer updates" and check the box that leads to the left of the text.
    Finally click on the OK button, and from now the browser will automatically check if there is any update.
    Convert a hard disk partition or a FAT, FAT16 or FAT32 to NFTS

    The use of one or another file system depends on your needs, although it is more advisable to have an NTFS partition with the most valuable, because among other features distinguished by its high security and integration of data that are stored on partitions or disks with NTFS file system. Convert a FAT16 or FAT32 partition to NTFS is very simple. You must quit all the applications you're using and press Start * * Run. On the line of execution and then type cmd Enter (Captura1 image - can also be done from Start All Programs * * * Accessories prompt) I'll go to the MS DOS command line. Once there type: convert X: / FS: NTFS (where X is the letter of the drive or partition to convert), and begin the conversion process. Once this is done, restart the system and the conversion will become a reality. Should not perform any other operation during the conversion to avoid problems in the system.
    Note: a unit converted to NTFS can only be to reformat from Windows XP, because the format of Windows 95/98/Me do not recognize. Nor can we return from FAT to NTFS. We need to reformat the disk at low level.
    Create a Startup Disk from MS-DOS

    Have a boot disk is essential when working with a computer. With Windows XP, this task is easy, simply insert a disc into the drive 1.44MB, then Start / Control Panel, click on the disk drive 1.44MB with the mouse right.
    That will get a window where you must select Format ... you to a window and called Disc Format 3 1 / 2.
    Check the box to create a boot disk MS-DOS, press Start and begin the process of creating the disc. With this record, you can access MS-DOS mode when it deems appropriate.
    Create a Startup Disk

    The startup disk is everything you need to always have on hand when problems arise in the boot of Windows, pedes easily create a boot disk by following these steps:
    Place a blank disc into the drive.

    Download more than two files at once

    To download more than two files simultaneously from the same server:
    We all know from experience that the maximum number of file you can download simultaneously from the same web server or ftp is two, although this limitation may be registered in the server and which are downloading, as is our normal system who believes that restriction. But we can skip the maximum number of downloads. You have to access the registry editor, for that click the Start button, then Run, type Regedit in the box and click the OK button.
    Once inside he must have access to
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Software / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / InternetSettings
    At this point you must create the keys and MaxConnectionsPerServer MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server, DWORD mode. To create the right button click inside the folder InternetSettings now * New DWORD Value, and replaces the default name of this value by MaxConnectionsPerServer, giving this package worth more than 2 (eg 4). Similarly MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server need to create the key, and give a value for the key, for example 4.
    Once done you can download files simultaneously 4, always depending on the bandwidth connection.

    Desocultar installed programs not listed in Add / Remove Programs

    Microsoft has eliminated the system setup program to the user to specify which Windows components are installed. We can see that if we are to the option "Add / Remove Windows Components" in "Control Panel" we will not see the complete list of applications you can add or delete. We can solve this problem accessing the folder "c: \ windows \ inf" and then locate the file "sysoc.inf" can open it with Notepad. If we look at the section [Components], we find that some of the items containing the words "hide" or "Hide" and therefore not shown in the panel "Add / Remove Windows Components."
    [Version] Signature = "$ Windows NT $"
    DriverVer = 02/22/2002, 9.3.3202.0
    [Components]
    NtComponents = ntoc.dll, NtOcSetupProc, 4
    WBEM = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, wbemoc.inf, hide, 7
    Display = desk.cpl, DisplayOcSetupProc, 7
    Fax = fxsocm.dll, FaxOcmSetupProc, fxsocm.inf, 7
    NetOC = netoc.dll, NetOcSetupProc, netoc.inf, 7
    iis = iis.dll, OcEntry, Iis.inf, 7
    AccessOpt = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, optional.inf, HIDE, 7
    Pinball = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, pinball.inf, HIDE, 7
    MSWordPad = ocgen.dll, OcEntry, wordpad.inf, HIDE, 7
    [...]
    Replace the string "hide" by a comma ",". Then save the file, we will implement the panel "Add / Remove Windows Components" and check listed for installation or removal, components that remained hidden until then.
    Disco security key user

    The current pace of life we have to remember passwords and PIN number of elements, such as credit cards, cell phones, email accounts, computers and operating systems, etc. Too many keys for a single head. Therefore, for convenience, Windows XP allows us to create a bootable floppy disk to be used on occasion if we forget our password to the operating system.
    To make this record, click Start / Control Panel / User Accounts. At this time a new screen will appear with the user logged into the system, click on your username.
    Done that, you get a screen where you must locate and click the option Prevent forgotten passwords. This will launch a wizard that will help create the security. We must show the unit 1.44MB on which to create the disc, then the current key to access the user's system to create this record.
    Now just get a reduced 1.44MB formatted disk and click OK to finish creating disk security.
    When you need to use this album will only be placed above the green icon that accompanies your username and on the balloon that appears, click to use your password reset disk. With this access the Password Reset Wizard, which will require a new password to replace the lost.
    Now fill in the fields Write a new password: and Retype password to confirm. Finally, the typical question is displayed to remind the new key, this time through the field Enter a new password hint:. Indeed, the wizard will re-send the validation screen and users can access and Windows XP, using the key you just created.
    Using this allows you to access the disk on the system that was created quickly and easily, so, once established, is not labeled with names like disk access, password or similar record as an inappropriate use by outsiders can be fatal for your system. In addition, store in a safe place.
