Came across an interesting request recently and though I'd have to do my own batch scripting but quick search found me this site: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-make-flash-drive-that-copys-users-files-si/ so there's really not much more to explain, they did an excellent job I will just provide you with the files.
download this: archive.zip , extract and place all the files at the root (right at the top) of the USB flash or hard drive you want to use to gather your data. As an added bonus you can easily rename instead of the default name (usually the drive's manufacturer's name) to something like MARIO.
Now all you have to do is run launch.bat if the auto run doesn't do it's job (windows 7 and 8 probably don't do it automatically any more)
Of course as the site warns you shouldn't use this for anything illegal, this is informational use only and goes to show that you should have good physical security of your hardware at all times if you have important data on your computer or disable the USB connections on your computer.
Leave comments about any feedback.
Thank you for visiting!

Questions about Google self driving car
As all the fuss is about the new two passenger Google driver-less car there are many questions yet to be answered.
I thought I'd ask them now and search for answers later:
Any more questions that should be interesting?
I thought I'd ask them now and search for answers later:
- Who will get the first one hundred cars?
- What are the specs? I.e horsepower, range on battery, any air bags or other safety? Etc
- How does calling and setting locations work? Is Google maps involved? Maybe the new ubr integration? where can the car go? i.e. drivethrough?
- Is there going to be more apps connected? i.e. can you listen to music or watch youtube or netflix, etc
- How does payment work? And pretty important how much does it cost? Assuming less than traditional taxis would be good competitive edge.
- Payment methods? maybe cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, etc
- What kind of regulation is there or will there be? Does it simply pass a driver license to say it works?
- How many rides or how long can a customers retain the car? for example if I want to run errands could I stop and go in to the store and the car will wait? etc
Any more questions that should be interesting?

hyperdesktop free screenshot software for imgur.com apps gethyperdesktop.com
For some odd reason I have not been able to get to the site: http://gethyperdesktop.com/ now inactive - here is an archived view: http://web.archive.org/web/20131221033354/http://gethyperdesktop.com/
which provided the download link for the very useful software for the http://imgur.com site for image sharing. It essentially allows to capture a screen shot and uploads to imgur. very quick, simple, easy capture and sharing of screen. like this: http://i.imgur.com/peBaZ19.png
Anyway here are the file version I found, they seem to work on windows xp, windows 7 and 8 (64 or 32)
Version 1.0.3.9 http://www.mediafire.com/download/ze50ue51ag1hm7d/hyperdesktop%283%29.exe

Also the shortcuts/hotkeys.

Let me know in the comments what you think of the software and if the site is back up yet.
Update 03/12/2015: Looks like the site is done, hopefully the software is still useful as above, I am now using more Ubuntu and found a good alternative called shutter.

How to fix svchost.exe high cpu usage
When getting 100% CPU processor usage cause by svchost.exe (viewed in task manager)
There's a fairly simple solution that takes a long time to find when viewing the videos (in the source) and other links found from google. Here's the solution:
Right click My computer > manage > services > find "Automatic updates" stop and turn off or to manual.
This will stop the service from running when windows is turned on.
It's a risk which must be taken at this point (not updating) but if you have some simple machines that have windows XP (or vista too?) and since the support will be stopped for them soon anyway (which means no more updates after sometime in 2014).
Let me know if this helped you, comments, problems, questions, etc.

You already have a Git repository on your computer. Let's push it up to Bitbucket.
cd /path/to/my/repo git remote add origin https://username@bitbucket.org/username/test.git git push -u origin --all # pushes up the repo and its refs for the first time git push -u origin --tags # pushes up any tags[source]
Simple linux bash script to commit and push git updates
This assumes you have setup the git on dev directory (replace as needed), it was fairly simple thanks to bitbucket instructions

Developing useful software applications catch 22 paradox
Just wanted to vent about frustrations of my experience in useful business software application development paradox:
- It's important to set out rules and standards BEFORE software is ready for production use
- It's hard to know which rules and standards are required for software UNTIL it goes into production
- It's hard to change rules and standards ONCE software is in production
Therefore it's a catch 22 when it comes to developing software that is standardized and easy to manage and maintain while continuing daily development with new features because the software didn't get those rules and standards BEFORE going into production.
So the software is always in a "beta" form and will take very long to come out of it, in fact probably impossible because it is always being developed and never standardized. Mainly my issues seems that there's so much code and database entries that are hard to change once a new standard is deemed more appropriate for the job. This is because the software is already in production use and now cannot be taken offline all the while remaining hard to adapt old data and code to the new standards and rules ideas which tend to change overtime.
Probably very confusing for someone who is not familiar with the issues described, or anyone for that matter.
But if you are reading this and understand my frustration, maybe you can comment or even have possible tips or solutions!

adBrite Operations Update
Got an email from adBrite:
Dear adBrite Publisher,
Over the last few weeks, adBrite and its management have been evaluating the go-forward plan for the business. Given market conditions and certain financial liabilities, in working with our lenders, we have decided to cease operations on Feb 1, 2013.
This is a difficult decision for all of us at adBrite. However, after much deliberation this seems to be the best course of action despite the impact it will have on all the employees, clients and partners who helped build this business. There will be a team in place as needed to assist with winding down. Thank you for being part of the adBrite community.The adBrite Team
Why are they ceasing operations?
Who should I switch to now?

How to check if picture photoshopped real or fake?
So I came across 4 pictures that look like they have "ghosts" in them, immediately I want to find out if they are photoshopped or edited in anyway, shape or form.
Original pictures I was given, told they are "unedited" and "right from the camera"
First step: check the metadata.
Looking at the above pictures (download original) you can see that the sizes are extremly small. Which is first suspicious part since most modern cameras have at least 1mb in size. But overlooking this data we can open the properties of the file:
A place where you would have information about which type of camera took this pictures, but sure there's some that might exclude this information.
Second step: find tools to analyse the photo.
First tool I found was web based online tool at www.pskiller.com:
As you can see it indicates that color balance is adjusted and there is no make/model information.
But I want to be sure so I keep looking.
Second tool I found is called jpeg-snoop:
This is probably the best proof so far, there is clear indication that adobe has left a mark on this picture.
The third tool is called Error level analysis but was discontinued "After two years, this image forensics analysis service has been turned off." so I found a secondary site hosting this: 29a.ch/sandbox/2012/imageerrorlevelanalysis/:
I'll be honest, I really don't know much about how this part works so this is not very meaningful to me but hopefully with a little more knowledge (or some expertise) this tool is probably very useful.
Finally: use common sense.
After we analyse it's pretty clear that the pictures are not original photos from a camera of any type. I know that the best experts could fool us pretty easy but these guys were sloppy enough to leave us clues and evidence that this is not real.
Personally I never believed the supernatural but I like to think of myself as very open minded and if there's good proof out there I will reassess my beliefs.
I was critical as soon as I got word of these pictures but I carried out the investigation as it would be anything else and the proof is in the pudding.
------------
What do you think of these pictures? do you have any images you would like me to analyse?
Do you believe in supernatural entities (like poltergeist)?

escape single quote javascript sanitize clean encode
found here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2195568/how-do-i-add-slashes-to-a-string-in-javascript after searching for the solution:
But I went ahead and improved the concept with a simple function:
Named it backslash for simplicity but it actually will clean up # $ % ^ &() and anything else like single quote ' and doble quote (normally worked already)
Now you just plug this in where you need to clear up, i.e.:
or simpler
Which ever will work even with getElementById and now it's easy to play with the note, user input taken like a champ nothing is screwed up when encounters strange characters (strange for javascript at least)!
hope it helps someone, if you like it or have questions post a comment.
thanks for visiting Edu Boris blog.
str = str.replace(/'/g, "\\'")
But I went ahead and improved the concept with a simple function:
function backslash(str){
var str = encodeURIComponent(str.replace(/'/g, "\\'"));
return str;
}

Now you just plug this in where you need to clear up, i.e.:

WEP wifi hack windows 7 comments user input discussion
try the alternative download maybe?
let us know how it goes
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. ((
Another message:
Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date.
Did someone have such a problem?
i get same problem with @rough. there is no error msg but play button still in gray mode. When i update the wifi driver its appear "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date."
My adapter = Atheros AR9285 802.11b/g/n
Need help here....
Thanks for your nice program and nice learning.
Actually my laptop wireless adapter is Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN and i think that it is Incompatible.
Is the anyway that i can hack WEP keys?!
Thanks
Thanks, I'm not sure if there's other possible ways to hack WEP but you can try to use backtrack linux there's several tutorials online although I didn't master it to make one myself.
@Eddy Azlan Mohd Tajuddin
does your driver say [Commview] in square brackets like so?
If not maybe there was an issue installing the drivers as they are not compatible with all wifi cards... Sorry if couldn't help better
thanks for great learning, you save me lot of time and trouble with my Win 7/64
how i can open the log. i didnt understand. is it we need to save the log or what
Let me know if you have questions
i have the same problem. PLEASE HELP!!!!
Thanks..good stuff you have here ..

Finally manage to crack the wep keys..
1. What i did i just use the evaluation version of the commview 6.3.
2. Most important is to get the driver working...this one i manually update the driver using the list of newdrivers in your package.
3. The aircrack gui works greats...thanks a lot.. manage to crack after collecting about 19000 iv from 1 ssid.( to get this i manually inject in the packet using commview at the rate of 1000 continuosly.
Would this aircrack crack the wpa keys as well?????
Thanks
Lee
I haven't done any research on WPA but I heard you need something like 10GB of data to crack it (which is why it's considered so secure).
If you find any info I would love to hear it!
Thanks again :)
1. run ubuntu 11.10 on vm ware
2. open terminal

i have an atheros ar9285 adapter n it says commview in square brackets
"right click the file cv.exe and click properties, compatabilities and select windows xp sp3 and run as administrator"
not sure how else to help
please help me, :( , ill be so mad if i don't turn this program on again...
Atheros AR9285 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter
i do not have any kind of other wireless adapters that i actually have to plug into my computer, this one came with my computer, so i guess my question is will this version of driver work with the steps that you have shown us.
i noticed that you and i have similar drivers
(the differences being
mine is a
Atheros AR9285 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter
and yours (in your instructional video) is a
atheros AR9285 wireless network adapter
so will mine be able to support it and is there just something that i have done wrong is it the fact that i do not have a "wireless network adapter" and only have a "wifi adapter"
thanks and im sorry but i didnt have the time to go all through the comments looking for my exact driver.
the things that i get after running the updated "version" of commview driver is a notification of my computer possibly never working the same again. (which is normal because windows likes to scare people into believing that their product is the best)
however i cannot get after that, there is also a little yellow "attention looking sign" next to the driver known. and is also giving a "code 10" when i try to install the driver (after i install the driver it says that my computer can no longer use the wifi)
sorry this comment is so long i just wanted to give you the full problem statement so maybe it will help you more to help me get this straight :)
thank you
doing a quick browser search for "AR9285" will show you that there seems to be a few comments on here that are also unable to install those drivers. To be honest I have no idea why that is or how to fix it, I guess sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I didn't make any of this software I just tried to use it so I have no idea how to fix/maintain/support it.... sorry but thanks for visiting and commenting
thanks for the cracks and this site, never would have been able to be able to do this without this blog :) google should publish you
thanks
logan perkins
also just a side note the evaluation one is called CV.6 and is about 15mb in download size then just use that cv.6 along with the aircrack-ng.GUI that we got from you. with a bit of reconfiguring its very easy
Thanks logan perkins!
