Convert PNG to ICO for windows icons
Jan 1st
At the end of the post you’ll find places where you can find best icons for free.
Whenever you look for icons you find them in PNG format. No doubt PNG is a wonderful format to store intricate image details. But Windows doesn’t allow you to use them as icons. Windows supports the ICO format only. You cannot make ICO using MS paint. This online tool lets you convert PNG icons to ICO format. iConvert solves the problem: With this free tool, you can convert any common icon or image into an icon specifically for your platform. iConvert allows you to easily convert Windows icons to Mac OS X icons, SVG icons to Windows icons, PNG icons to Mac OS X icons, JPG images to Windows icons, and much more.
Now, when you have the ICO format, you can simply right click any shortcut and change its icon from the shortcut tab in properties.
If you are wondering where you would find amazing list of free icons. HERE
Another great pack containing around 500+ beautiful icons.

Disabled registry, task manager and folder options
Jan 1st
If you’ve used Windows for long enough. You must have faced this.
1. The registry prevents itself from being edited. As soon as you press enter after typing regedit in RUN, some error pops up.
2. Similarly the most powerful windows tool ctrl+alt+del stops working. There is always an option of other better task manager like the extended task manager and advanced process terminator. You have to do this if you love your default windows task manager.
3. Folders don’t unhide even when you try a 100 times. There is a simple cure to this problem. The RRT (remove restrictions tool). You don’t have to install it. Just double click on the exe and click enable all button. With just 1 click you can enable registry edit, task manager and folder options.
Note: The exe looks malicious, but there is nothing to worry about it. It is just a simple application that helps you.

WordPress Image upload problem
Jan 1st
Today when I was writing the previous post. The screen shot of the free extended task manager didn’t upload. There was an error saying “The parent directory …/wp-content/uploads/2010/01 isn’t writable.”
I opened up the file manager and navigated to the uploads directory. I have had a similar problem before. So, I made a new directory and named it 2010. The default permissions were 755. I changed it to 777 and then tried to upload again. The upload was successful. Now, there won’t be any such problems till jan 1 2011. I’ll have to repeat the process again for the new year 2011.
My web host isn’t a popular one like the Hostgator or Godaddy, so I face some problems like these often. Probably it isn’t optimized for wordpress. Hope I find a way to fix this soon. Otherwise, I’ll have to shift to a better host from may.
Free extended Task manager
Jan 1st
When you are fed up with the windows XP task manager. Or you can’t open it (happened to me). There is better task manager waiting to install on your computer. Free Extended task manager literally makes you throw away the default task manager on Windows XP. It is free and has much more data showing. There is no reason for you to not install it.
The real time graphs in the performance tab show the status on mouse over. Apart from the PF (memory) usage and the CPU usage history graphs, Disk I/O graph also shows up in the performance tab. Another great feature is the summary tab. This is where you get the present status of everything you need to know. In this tab you can end tasks, switch to processes, see the PF, CPU, Disk and network usage histories. One place for most important things is a great idea.
