How to download large files faster and more reliably

rying to download that 30M file for the third time? How many times have you started to pray thinking your dial-up connection might go down when the download is 99% complete? Well, here's a bit complicated, yet effective method that just might reduce your downloading headaches...

Let's say you're connect to the Internet using a 28.8K modem and that your Internet service provider lets you telnet to their server. Of course, your provider's server can download files much faster, so the idea here is to download the file to their server at high speed, split it, and retrieve parts at the highest speed you can to your provider's server. Generally speaking, this method not only is a faster way to download files, but it is also a more reliable method since you'll be downloading many smaller files rather than one large file.

First, find out the FTP address of the large (larger than 16M for example) file that you want to download. For example:

ftp://ftp.x.com/bigfile.zip

Telnet to your Internet service provider's server.

telnet x.com

From within the telnet session, download your file to your provider's server. Following is a "screen shout" of a sample file transfer on an UNIX compatible server. Blue/bold text represents your input.
ftp
ftp> open ftp.x.com
Connected to ftp.x.com.
220 ftp x.cpm FTP Service (Version 2.0).
User (ftp.x.com:(none)): anonymous
331 Anonymous access allowed, send identity as
Password: my_address@x.com
ftp> binary
200 Type set to I.
ftp> get bigfile.zip
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for bigfile.zip
226 Transfer complete.
ftp> quit
221 Thank you for using x.com!

Once the file is download to the server, the next step is to divide the file into smaller pieces so that you will not waste too much time downloading should your Internet dial-up connection go down.

split -b 2000b bigfile.zip

You're almost there! Now simply log off from your telnet session and start downloading (from your provider's server to your computer) smaller files (not the bigfile.zip) which the above split command (on most UNIX compatible machines) created.

Once you have all the files, simply merge them and you got a good copy of the original bigfile.zip. If you're using DOS or Windows, you can merge files using the following command (assuming that bigfile.zip (16000 byte file) was divided into 8 2000 byte files named xaa to xah):

copy /b xaa xab xac xad xae xaf xag xah bigfile.zip

Don't forget to log back into your Internet service provider's computers and delete temporary files (bigfile.zip and xaa..xah) once you've made sure that your downloaded copy is in good condition. Doesn't sound like the above steps could make your downloads faster or more reliable? Well, in most cases it does; specially if the file you're downloading is rather large. The reason why this method could possibly be faster is because you can download files from your provider's computer to your computer faster than from most remote sites. Of course, the reason for reliability is that downloading many smaller files makes it possible to resume a download without wasting as much time as resuming a larger file download would.

Don't let call waiting cut into your online connection

If you carry the call waiting feature in your phone line(s), your dial-up connection to the Internet (or any other online service) may be interrupted if you receive a call in the middle of a session. The good news is that it's easy enough to disable this feature every time you dial out by adding *70, in front of your number. Of course, this code depend on the phone company, so make sure that it's the correct code for your calling area/telephone service provider specially if you're not in the USA.

For example, if your current dial-up number is 123-4567 change it to *70,123-4567

*70 actually does the disabling of the call waiting feature, and the comma (,) afterwards simply adds a delay to bypass the acknowledgment of the command. If your dialer doesn't understand commas in the phone number, try using just *70. To re-enable call waiting, simply dial *72.

Ronny: Refs don't protect us


Cristiano Ronaldo feels he is not given enough protection from referees and fears suffering a serious injury.

The winger was denied a clear penalty against Portsmouth in the FA Cup quarter final defeat at Old Trafford. That incident, coupled with persistent fouling throughout the game, highlights an oft-felt view that the Portuguese is not protected by referees.

"It's very frustrating, the referee was unbelievable," he told MUTV. "He didn't want to give the penalty, he didn't want to give yellow cards - I'm very disappointed.

"Refs don't protect skilful players. I think about the Arsenal player (Eduardo) and I'm scared sometimes to do skills because some players do unbelievable fouls and the ref protects the defender, not the skilled player! It's very disappointing and I'm thinking a lot about changing my game. When referees don't give penalties, yellow cards or reds, it's difficult to play."

Sir Alex Ferguson was left aghast that referee Martin Atkinson did not award a penalty for Sylvain Distin's clear bodycheck on Ronaldo in the seventh minute. Ronaldo added: "He (Distin) didn't try to take the ball. It's a joke."

But it wasn't just refereeing decisions that disappointed the 22-year-old. "We lost today and everyone is disappointed because we were the best team," he said. "We created ten chances while Portsmouth created just one. It's frustrating to lose like that.

"We controlled the game, but we didn't score. Carrick had one cleared off the line, Patrice hit the post... we had a great chance to win the FA Cup but we need to think now about the Premier League and the Champions League. These are the priorities."

How to Open Password Protected PDF Documents


There are sometimes genuine reasons to unlock or crack a password protected PDF file. You have the legal right to open the encrypted PDF document but forgot the password like in the case below.

Say one of your former colleague created some critical sales reports in PDF format but he is not working with the company anymore. In his absence, you have no option but to crack the PDF password in order to open, read or print these PDF files.

There are basically two types of PDF protection - the original PDF creator can either restrict opening the PDF file itself or he can restrict others from modifying, printing or copying text and graphics from the PDF file. Here are a few possible workarounds:

When there are Copying or Printing Restrictions..

Say you want to print a couple of pages from the PDF document but the document settings won't let you do that.

Open the document in Acrobat Reader or Foxit and capture the PDF page as an image using any free screen capture software. If there are multiple pages, you may try SnagIt since it can autoscroll and capture multiple pages of the document in one-go.

If you want to copy just a portion of text from some PDF page, use a screen capture tool with OCR features (like Kleptomania, Capture Text discussed here)

Alternatively, you can invest in commercial solutions like Advanced PDF Password Recovery from ElcomSoft and PDF Password Remover from Very PDF.

(These utilities may not recover the password for you - they'll just remove the restrictions from the password protected file)

When there are Document Opening Restrictions..

This is a very tricky case and there's no straight-forward solution to read PDF documents that are password-protected at the Open level.

The software will use methods like Brute Force, Key Search and Dictionary Attack to guess the password. They will try to use all possible character combinations as the password and so the process might take hours or even days and would really depend on your computer's processing power.

Legal Issues: - you maybe surprised to learn that these PDF password cracking software are absolutely legal and Microsoft even awarded ElcomSoft a Gold Certified Partner status.

25 Tips To Optimize Your Blog For Readers & Search Engines

Everyone and their dog (yes, there are a few dogs out there with their own blogs) have started up a blog these days, but many people just aren’t taking the steps needed to optimize their blogs for both readers and search engines. While blogs can be business related (another blog about mesothelioma anyone?) they can also be personal where you talk about the great ham sandwich you had for lunch today or the crappy service you had at that trendy restaurant last night.

But whether your blog is business or personal, you should ensure that you are optimizing your blog for both your readers (after all, you want to keep those readers coming back) and the search engines. Unfortunately, optimization is an important step that far too many blogs seem to be skipping over, even those that have a broad appeal to surfers and have the potential to be monetizable.

How to Post Source Code?!

It will be cool right if we can add the source code of any programming language in this blog… Do you know how to do it?!! Ok.. Actually this trick is given by wordpress perhaps some of us not realize this thing…

[sourcecode language=’php’]
$host=”localhost”;
$username=”root”;
$password=”";
$databasename=”KTCI_DATABASE”;
$link=mysql_connect($host, $username, $password) or die(”Database is not connected!”);
$selectdb = mysql_select_db($databasename, $link)or die(”Database is not selected!”);
?>
[/sourcecode]

Wrap your code in these tags: [sourcecode language=’css’]…[/sourcecode]. You can replace the language with “css” with the language that you’re writing in. Currently we support syntax highlighting for the following language codes:

* cpp
* csharp
* css
* delphi
* java
* jscript
* php
* python
* ruby
* sql
* vb
* xml

The language attribute is required! If we don’t have what you need pick the closest.
Code in between the [sourcecode] tags will automatically be encoded for display, you don’t need to worry about HTML entities or anything.

Memperbaiki USB FlashDIsk

Berhubung banyak teman yang kena masalah USB nya tidak terdeteksi oleh komputer alias tidak bisa dibuka di my computer, ini ada salah satu cara untuk bisa di buka kembali.

Logika secara umum :
Flash disk tidak terdeteksi mungkin dikarenakan driver FDD tidak sesuai dengan OS yang dipakai, terdapat crash system fat pada flash disk tersebut dan kemungkinan terakhir flash disk anda rusak total. Adapaun untuk penanganan dini memperbaikinya sbb.

Oke, singkat saja..

Buka Command prompt, start->run->”cmd”

masuk ke drive USB, misal : e: / f: / g:
ketik : chkdsk /f –> kenapa /f ? search di cmd, ‘help chkdsk’
Pilih yes(y) untuk melakukan proses checkdisk setelah kompi di restart
Lakukan restart PC, biarkan proses berlangsung setelah winlogon

Apabila cmd tidak bisa masuk ke dalam drive usb tersebut, hal diatas masih bisa dilakukan dari drive manapun, dengan perintah : chkdsk (:e/f/g drive usb) [/…]
Semoga USB flasdisk yang tadinya tidak bisa dibuka, kini bisa dibuka kembali

Flash Disk mengalami Write Protect

1. Masuk ke DOS Prompt Windows XP dan ketik CHKDSK /F Drive letter : (chkdsk /f v:)
2. Selesai memeriksa dari Check Disk (CHKDSK), coba anda buang file yang ada pada Flash Disk dengan perintah Del drive letter:*.*. Contoh pada perintah membuang file dari Flash Disk di drive V: adalah DEL V:*.*
3. Sekali lagi anda coba format dengan perintah Dos Promt. Format V:
4. Atau gunakan cara melalui Computer Management dan lihat volume drive V, dan anda coba format. Bila masih terdapat pesan error lakukan boot pada computer

Creating a Site Map for your web site

The simplest way to create a site map is to use the HTML Unordered Lists tag
    . The tag can be employed to create simple one-level lists and also display the hierarchical structure of your web site by nesting lists if your site s more complex.



    The Unordered Lists tag
      supports a neat attribute called Type with which you can specify the type of bullet you want for the list - disc, circle or square.



      Let us look at an example:



      * Electronics

      o DVD Players

      o V.C.R.s

      o Computers

      + Desktops

      + Laptops

      + Palmtops

      o Portable MP3 players

      o T.V.s

      * Automobiles

      o Cars

      o Buses

      o Motorcycles

      o Scooters

      * Furniture

      o Beds

      o Tables

      o Chairs



      The HTML code for the above is:







      Note how the hierarchical structure is displayed using nested Unordered Lists
        tag. We have also used the TYPE attribute and specified the kind of bullet we want for each list.

Submiting a web site to search engines for free

The first step in web promotion is to create a web site that is search engine friendly. The keywords should be used judiciously in the META tag, the TITLE tag, the heading tags and most importantly in the web page content. Anyone can spam a search engine hoping they would get a good site rank by putting keywords excessively in the TITLE and META tags, but search engines have become very smart. They not only look whether the web contents contain that keyword (at a particular word frequency) but also whether the sentences are grammatically correct. Thus, before you use one of the free search engine services below, you should first check your site thoroughly.

Addme
www.addme.com

AddPro
www.addpro.com

FreeWebSubmission
www.freewebsubmission.com

SubmitExpress
www.submitexpress.com

I cannot stress on this point more but you should strive to have good web site content... content which is meaningful to the visitor and makes their visit successful.

The free web site submission services are not perfect and you should also manually submit your web site to the Major Search Engines and Directories. In fact, you need to submit to directories only manually. I know its a long and tedious process of submitting your web site to tons of search engines and directories and if you do get a nice deal from a service provider, go ahead. Just remember to ask them a copy of the submission results and be sure to test your site on each of the engines they submitted to after about a month or so.
