System restore feature was introduced in windows xp. The popularity of windows xp system restore feature has ensured that the feature is avialable in the latest OS offering from microsoft i.e windows 7 that too in a much improvesied form.

Understanding System Restore

If you have not encountered system restore in earlier versions of windows then think of it as a undo command for microsoft windows. If your os starts behavings badly after installing a particular programme or because of a virus etc, then you can use system restore to take your computer back to an earlier date when it was working fine.

How does System Restore in Windows 7 work

If you enable system restore then it takes periodical snapshot of your system and stores them as restore points when you make any significant changes or install any driver. When you use system restore to solve a problem it simply overwrites your current file system by this backed up configuration. Since the backed up version did not have the problematic software or virus, the problem gets resolved.

Scan for Affected Programs before doing system restore in Windows 7

A big problem with system restore in windows xp was that there was no way to find out what all programmes will be deleted after the system restore. The problem has been resolved to a large extent in windows 7 through a feature called scan for affected programmes. It will provide you a list of prgrams that will be uninstalled after the system restore, thereby making it easier to decide if you need to back up certain files.

Ease of use of bitdefender antivirus 2009

The biggest problem with antivirus softwares is that they are way too cumbersome. It is possible to download and install the software in less than half an hour. BitDefender is capable of logging when files were last accessed, and if a file hasn’t been used since the last scan, BitDefender skips it.

Many people, me included, get infected with virus as they forget to update the antivirus softwares in time. BitDefender updates its virus signatures every hour unless you adjust it to a longer interval.

Effectiveness of bitdefender antivirus 2009

Most important aspect of a software is its effectiveness. In several tests conducted by antivirus comparison sites, bitdefender antivirus has scored better than other more expensive antivirus softwares. One of the key features developed by bitdefender is a virtual machine on which it can run suspect codes to check if it is virus or not. Hence bitdefender is one of the few antivirus softwares that is not dependent on signature files to identify virus.

bitdefender download

Bitdefender antivirus 2009 comes as a paid software. However it provides an option to download the antivirus software for free as well. I have downloaded the bit defender internet security 2009 from the above link. I shall update this post with my experince soon. In the mean time you may go though my post about How to remove recycler virus on USB

We at binaryday seem to be too impressed with windows 7, the latest operating system from microsoft. We have previously blogged about windows 7 themes , windows media player 12 or wmp 12 and Free Download Directx 11 with Directx 3D for Windows 7 and Vista. In this blog post I shall be discussing how you can download windows 7 upgrade advisor.

What is windows 7 upgrade advisor

Windows 7 upgrade advisor is a tool that will let you know if all hardware and software on your pc are compatible with windows 7. It can be installed on windows vista and xp. The windows 7 upgrade advisor will hopefully protect users against unpleasant surprises.

Where to download windows 7 upgrade advisor

The beta version of windows 7 upgrade advisor is available at the official microsoft site at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/upgrade-advisor.aspx

How to install windows 7 upgrade advisor

As with all other products from microsoft, installation is a piece of cake and quite intuitive. So I need not explain this step.

Themes provide a really easy and useful way to change the appearance of content of windows and break free from the default look. Windows 7 themes is one of the many cool features of Windows 7 that include windows media player 12 and Directx 3D to name a few.

Windows 7 Themes

Some of the best themes of windows 7 are available at the official website of microsoft at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/Personalize. Mike Swanson has put together a cool theme for windows 7 at http://www.mikeswanson.com/wallpaper/Mike%20Swanson%20Macros.themepack. However while windows 7 themes have made it comparatively easy to get a cool look, that is not good enough reason to migrate your operating system.

Windows 7 themes for Vista

If you intend to continue with Vista O/S and get the looks of Windows 7, then you can do so by using windows 7 themes for Vista. Some of the best themes for Vista are available at http://giannisgx89.deviantart.com/art/Windows-7-Style-For-Vista-102269037, http://pankaj981.deviantart.com/art/Windows-7-Inspirat-76378417, http://vistaaero.deviantart.com/art/Windows-7-M1-Original-Theme-90127567 and http://deskmundo.deviantart.com/art/Windows-Seven-M1-VS-76834286

Windows 7 themes for XP

If you need to get a look similar to windows 7 on your XP machine, then you should consider using a windows 7 theme for XP.

Need to convert docx to doc 

Many people struggle to open docx files with microsoft word as the docx format was a new format introduced by microsoft in word 2007. Many other versions of microsoft word do not support the docx format. The official solution for it is to convert docx files to doc format by using microsoft compatibility pack. However using microsoft compatibility pack for docx to doc conversion can be quite cumbersome, especially if you are a technologically challenged person

Free docx to doc converter to the rescue

I am constantly surprised by the number of free tools that are available online. As I was researching for a convenient way to convert docx to doc format, I came across docx2doc.com. Docx2doc.com offers an online tool to convert docx to doc instantly. Let me know your views of docx2doc.com if you have ever used them before.Btw you may like to check my other posts about windows media player 12 , Free Download Directx 11, rapidshare premium account and Rapidshare download Manager.

I have previously written about rapidshare premium account and rapidshare downloader because of the interest shown by the blog readers in these topics related to rapidshare. This is the third post in the series of posts about rapidshare tricks and I shall be discussing about Rapidshare download Manager and Rapidshare manager in this post.

Rapidshare manager is the official download utility from rapidshare

Rapidshare manager is an utility provided by rapidshare itself. It allows users to upload and download multiiple files simultaneously. As typical with rapidshare, there are several restrictions on free users. Still the rapidshare manager is the official utility from rapidshare and hence worth a try especially you are sensitive about security related issues. You can download Rapidshare Manager at http://www.rapidshare.com/rsm.html

Rapidshare download Manager and Spyware

Having provided links to 5 free rapidshare downloader, I just realized that many rapidshare download managers can be a potential spyware. Hence if you must use a rapidshare download manager, make sure that you do enough research on it to satisfy yourself that, it is not a spyware.

Microsoft seems to be giving up its cnfrontation strategy and gradually moving towards a collaborative strategy with Windows 7. Many previously bundled programmes will ship separately now. However windows media player 12 or wmp 12 is going to be one of the few programmes that are going to ship along with windows 7. Btw do check out my post about Free Download Directx 11 with Directx 3D for Windows 7 and Vista.

Windows media player 12 or wmp 12 : the latest media player to ship

The Windows media player 12 is the latest media player to ship from the microsoft assembly line. Actually only the beta version has been made available. The final version will be released along with windows 7 only. In a notable shift from the past, even other formats including H.264 and AAC are supported.

The new interface for Windows media player 12

The biggest improvement on wmp 12 seems to have happened on its interface. wmp 12 comes with brighter and lighter interface. The windows media player 12 comes with 2 distinct interface modes i.e Now Playing view, and Library view. The interface would be pretty familiar to existing wmp users even though some buttons and toolbars have been moved around a bit.

“Play to” the coolest feature of windows media player 12

Windows media player 12 makes it easier to play music with any external device with the pc through a cool feature called “Play to”. It can stream to other computers in your HomeGroup, so, you can actually play back on the HTPC connected to your sound system while browsing your library on your laptop.

Download windows media player 12

Unfortunately, even after lot of Googling, I have not been able to locate a link to download windows media player 12. While I could find some rapidshare links, they were mostly for the spanish version of wmp 12. Let me know if you find a link for english version of windows media player 12.

The need for Rapidshare Downloader

There seems to be a lot of interest for rapidshare premium account as Rapidshare seems to be doing a perfect job of annoying the free users with slow download speed, delayed start of download etc. If you are trying to download movies, you will have to download multiple files, which makes the process of downloading files from rapidshare even more frustrating.

Free Rapidshare Downloader to the rescue

The frustration is not so much about the delay in downloading the files from rapidshare as anyways the download takes long. The frustration is because of the need for the user to intervene in the download from time to time. Rapidshare downloader softwares make the process less frustrating by automating this process. With a good rapidshare downloader software you can input all the download links at once and forget all about it.

Sevices to send free sms messages are very popular in India. Now Aswin has put together a really smart hack that uses the api available at way2sms to send sms messages from within php code.

What is great about the code?

1. It allows you to send free sms messages from within php code. So now you can start sending sms messages from your application itself. Like everytime you publish a new blog post you can send sms messages to your subscribers.
2. He has put the source code under Creative Commons license. Means you can download the code and modify it to suit your need.

Many interesting applications will be possible using this code. However I will like to know the response of people at way2sms to this code before I start developing applications with it. Let me know if you know Aswin personally.

More and more people are using their mobile device to access the internet. However most of the blogs including binaryday are designed for the desktop users. So it is a good idea to get a mobile version of the blog.

wirenode.com allows you to create a mobile version of your blog in less than 1 minute. Your blog needs to have a rss though.

Simply enter the url of your blog and hit “mobilze blog” (see image above). Wirenode finds out the url of your rss automatically and creates the mobile version of your blog. See the mobile version of binaryday below.

You can then register yourself and customize the look of your mobile blog. (I faced issues with the login process)

You need not take my word for it. Check google trends for website for google.com or youtube.com to see for yourself.

P.S: If you are able to see the trends for google.com or youtube.com then do let me know. I shall take down this offending post
