Cannot Right Click Desktop or in Windows Explorer

Windows Tricks RaviTeja 3:13:00 PM

If you are having troubles with the context menu (right click menu), right clicking on the desktop does not do anything then most probably you have your group policies set to not displaying the context menu in windows explorer. You can change it in two ways. One from the group policy editor and one from the registry editor.

1)From Group Policy Editor
To re-enable your context menu from the group policy editor, go to Run –> gpedit.msc –> User Configuration –> Administrative Templates –> Windows Components –> Windows Explorer. In the right hand pane, find “Windows Explorer’s default context menu”, open its properties by double clicking it. If it’s enabled or not configured, disable it and your context menu will be back as soon as you apply this policy.

2 - From Registry Editor

To re-enable your context menu from the registry, go to Run –> regedit –> HKEY_CURRENT_USER –> Software –> Microsoft –> Windows –> CurrentVersion –> Policies –> Explorer. In the right hand pane find “NoViewContextMenu”, set its value to 0 if it exists. If you still can’t right click your desktop, then you can look for the same key here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE –> Software –> Microsoft –> Windows –> CurrentVersion –> Policies –> Explorer

It is increasingly common for owners, teachers, or non-technical personnel to manage shared computers in addition to their many other responsibilities.

Managing shared computers can be difficult, technically challenging, time-consuming, and expensive. And what’s more, without system restrictions and protections, users can inadvertently change the desktop appearance, reconfigure system settings, and introduce unwanted software, viruses, and other harmful programs. Repairing damaged shared computers can require significant time and effort.

User privacy is also an issue for shared computer environments. Shared computers often use shared user accounts that make Internet history, saved documents, and cached Web pages available to subsequent users.

Windows SteadyState provides a more effective way to help defend shared computers from changes by untrusted users and unwanted software installations. It can also help safeguard system resources.
Removing all the changes made by the user will remove all the created files by that user and software being installed by the user, you can more over apply certain restrictions also on the users using your computer, all this can be achieved by a free utility by Microsoft called Steady State.

Access Websites as a bot

Proxy server RaviTeja 11:08:00 AM

UPDATE: This is NOT working now.

Google bot and yahoo bot are the general terms for their automated web crawling service that is linked to Google and yahoo search engines. Bots sends out requests to web-pages that use a Google or Yahoo Bot user agent. This specific user agent is used for several purposes including identification and restrictions.

Web masters can for instance filter out Bot from their website statistics to get a better picture of how many real users visit the site in a given time. Some web-masters and services on the other hand try to cheat by allowing Bots access to all of their contents while they display a registration or buy page to users who want to access the same information.
That’s not allowed according to Google’s terms of use but some web-masters do it nevertheless.
Some users had now the idea to pose as Google Bot to access the information without buying or registering first.

Be The Bot helps you in this. It contains a form where a web address can be entered. The user can select to act as Google Bot or Yahoo Bot. The requested URL will then be displayed on the same screen.

Have you ever been googleing something, and you see exactly what you need in the preview, but when you click the link it doesn't show you what you want to see?
This is because the owners of the site are trying to trick you to do something like registering etc,. When Google crawls the site, it gives header “Google-bot”. The programmers of the site just makes a check for the header.

This works on all pages that allow Google Bot or Yahoo Bot complete access to their website but block visitors by asking to do some other thing.

Retrieve Country name and code from ip address

Technical Information Anonymous 3:44:00 PM

In order to retrieve the country name, first we have to change the ip address into ip number. Any ip address [both ipv4 and ipv6] can be divided into 4 sub blocks. Each sub block has a different weight number. Each is powered by 256. Here comes the question.... Why to use ip number? Why cant we use ip address? The answer is IP number is being used in the database because it is efficient to search between a range of number in database. Ip number can be calculated by the given formula.

IP Number = (256^3)*w + (256^2)*x + (256)*y + z
where IP Address = w.x.y.z

For example, if IP address is "202.186.13.4", then its IP Number "3401190660" is based on the Formula.
Let us check it here.

IP Address = 202.186.13.4

So, w = 202, x = 186, y = 13 and z = 4

IP Number = 16777216*202 + 65536*186 + 256*13 + 4
= 3388997632 + 12189696 + 3328 + 4
= 3401190660

Search the IP-COUNTRY TABLE to match a unique record that has the IP number fits between From IP Number and To IP Number.

For example, IP Address "202.186.13.4" is equivalent to

IP Number "3401190660". It falls in the following range of IP number in the table because it is between the "From IP number" and the "To IP number".

From the IP range, the Country Name is Malaysia.
