How To Remove / Delete / Uninstall Vista Activation, Loader, Crack
Posted by Gautam Aggarwal on Friday, February 19, 2010
Ever since the official release of Windows Vista, hackers have come with newer and stronger cracks for the Vista OS. These cracks were based on the (previously) the frankenbuild method, KMS activation, stop activation countdown timer method – and later on the software-based Paradox OEM BIOS emulation and hardware-level OEM BIOS mod. VOATK Tools help you to uninstall and remove these cracks if the situation should ever arise.
Now I’m against piracy, and I strongly recommend that you buy a genuine Vista license and if you do buy and and try to install a genuine Vista license key – you need to remove the previously installed crack, and then you find that it is very hard to remove / uninstall it. VOATK Tools is a multipurpose, all-in-one utility that lets you manage several activation tools, including the removal and uninstallation of previously installed cracks on a Vista OS.

Liferea: RSS feed reader for Linux users
Posted by Gautam Aggarwal on Friday, November 27, 2009
RSS feeds have been really very useful for me and I love to manage all the feeds which I follow via FeedDemon. Recently when I started using Ubuntu I was really missing my Feed manager. Then I found this cool feed reader. Liferea is a feed manager for Linux systems. There are many feed readers out there but all of them requires new libraries to be installed or the worse they do not support linux systems.
The best thing about this is you can easily add your Google feed reader feeds to this. So if you are already using FeedDemon and if it is synchronized with your Google Account then you can easily add all those feeds to Liferea also.
Liferea is the best feed reader available for the Linux systems. It’s fast, it’s simple and it’s easy to use.
Read this to know how to install it in your Linux.
Feel free to post comments. :)

Enhance Your Computer’s Performance With Readyboost

ReadyBoost is a component of Microsoft’s Windows Vista operating system. It works by using flash memory, USB 2.0 drive, SD card, CompactFlash or any kind of portable flash mass storage system as a drive for disk cache. ReadyBoost is present, with fewer restrictions than in Vista, in the beta version of Windows 7. ReadyBoost is also used to facilitate SuperFetch, an updated version of Windows XP’s prefetcher which performs analysis of boot-time disk usage patterns and creates a cache which is used in subsequent system boots.
In order to take advantage of this feature and boost performance as stated above you will need a flash memory device. But if you really want to see the boost your device should meet some minimum performance and space requirements:
• The device must be at least 64 MB
• The device must be USB 2.0
• It has to be able to read at 3.5 MB/s
• It has to be able to write at 2.5 MB/s

To make Ubuntu more attractive to the end user, the Ubuntu developers have included some eye-candy 'desktop effects' with the recent versions of Ubuntu.
