Since the past 1 week, I have not been able to access my Facebook account where after logging in, it takes forever to load into the homepage. This problem has been reported by many collegues too, and the peculair thing is that another person using the same PC and browser will be able to open his Facebook account. So, in my search for solutions, bumped into this article from PC World. What comes into my mind after reading is that Facebook might not be that safe in terms of security, so will it be better if we not reveal too much, or post too many personal pictures/videos/details etc because its easy to make a custom application which the hackers tends to target to spread their malwares?
Hackers have found a way to create automated Facebook pages and are using them to spread spyware to unsuspecting users, says antivirus and Internet security firm AVG Technologies.
In a blog entry posted last week, Research Chief Roger Thompson said that AVG’s LinkScanner users had started detecting some “rogue spyware attacks” that were coming from Facebook pages. When AVG started looking at the pages, it noticed that the Facebook profiles featured pictures of the same woman and merely had different names to differentiate them. Each page had a link to a supposed video that would infect user computers with spyware if clicked.
Thompson says that there are likely untold numbers of such rogue Facebook profiles on the Web right now, meaning that the hackers have somehow found a way to bypass Facebook’s CAPTCHA system that requires users to retype a series of letters to activate an account. Thompson said that while Facebook will certainly delete any rogue accounts it finds, the accounts “can’t be an easy thing for them to find” and will thus be difficult to eliminate.

) as stated in earlier posts. So, I happen to visit this site where they listed futuristic gadgets and thought would take a leaf here and there. Enjoy!

Posted by lal HAUZEL in TechnoKratz. Tagged: battery, Windows 7. Leave a Comment

I have been using Windows 7 RC since the past 3 months or so and did not face much issues with it. But, recently I bumped into this article from www.fiercecio.com that talks about how Windows 7 eats up laptop battery much faster than the previous OS. This has been ‘news’ to me since I have become a great fan of Windows 7 not only for the fact that it I can use it (or rather try it out) free till June 2010, but also because I have a hard time juggling various Vista’ versions. Anyway, read on and lets share what you think or experience about this (battered…!!) battery thing. Continue reading

Sometimes it takes Dr Prathap C. Reddy two hours to get to his car. Apollo Hospital, Chennai, is not that large. But between his office and the parking lot he gets buttonholed by hundreds—people with loved ones fighting for life somewhere in his hospital.
They entreat him to find out why the doctors are huddling together in hushed whispers; they complain about the food; they sigh over the bills; they grumble, they gripe and they appeal for help from the man who set up the Apollo Group. From his 25 years of experience, Reddy knows the significance of that moment: “When they leave, they’ll remember just one thing: did my hospital care for me?”
How many of our hospitals would fulfil that very human need to feel cared for when we are at our most vulnerable? Check out the writing on the wall.

1) More screen space. Make your icons small. Go to View – Toolbars – Customize and check the “Use small icons” box.
2) Smart keywords. If there’s a search you use a lot (let’s say IMDB.com’s people search), this is an awesome tool that not many people use. Right-click on the search box, select “Add a Keyword for this search”, give the keyword a name and an easy-to-type and easy-to-remember shortcut name (let’s say “actor”) and save it. Now, when you want to do an actor search, go to Firefox’s address bar, type “actor” and the name of the actor and press return. Instant search! You can do this with any search box.
3) Keyboard shortcuts. This is where you become a real Jedi. It just takes a little while to learn these, but once you do, your browsing will be super fast. Here are some of the most common (and my personal favs):
* Spacebar (page down)
* Shift-Spacebar (page up)
* Ctrl+F (find)
* Alt-N (find next)
* Ctrl+D (bookmark page)
* Ctrl+T (new tab)
* Ctrl+K (go to search box)
* Ctrl+L (go to address bar)
* Ctrl+= (increase text size)
* Ctrl+- (decrease text size)
* Ctrl-W (close tab)
* F5 (reload)
* Alt-Home (go to home page)
*Ctrl + Shift + T : Opens up previously closed tab (This one was from HillRider.Thnx) Continue reading
