:Top 5 Tips to Work Faster in Microsoft Excel:


At everyone’s point in life, you will have to experience using the wonders of Excel. To be honest, Excel can be your best friend, but there are moments when little tricks that can make the word of a difference.

1. Multiple lines in a cell
Top 5 Excel Tips
Press Alt+Enter to start typing on a second line
To add a new line while typing in a cell, you will realize that it isn’t just the Enter key. Instead, while typing in a cell, hold Alt+Enter together to get that second line in a cell.

2. AutoFit row/column
Autofit Row Column Excel
Use keyboard shortcuts to auto-fit columns or rows
Has this happened to you? Your cell has excess space either with the row height or column width. Usually this would be a simple fix. All you would do is double-click the top row or column and the cell will adjust. However, what if this is the case for the entire worksheet, where you have thousands of cells?
This would be a cumbersome task to complete.
Well instead of suffering, all you would need to do is select all the cells, then Alt+H+O+A/I. Alternatively; you can select the Home Tab -> Format option -> AutoFit

3. Cell Merge
Excel Cell Merge Tip
Make your Excel spreadsheets look better by merging cells
Got a cell that has a lot of text in it? Well you can leave it and have the text hover over the neighbouring cells. But why not make it look more aesthetically pleasing.
Cell merge provides the solution by combining the selected cells into one cell. All you need to do is select the cells, alignment, and then click the “Merge Cells” option.

4. Switching between worksheets in a workbook
Have you ever created an excel sheet that has a couple of worksheets in one Excel file? Normally, you can use your mouse to navigate through each sheet, but this does get tiring.
Why not use keyboard shortcuts and avoid having to leave the comfort of your keyboard? All you need to do is click Ctrl+PgUp/PgDn to scroll through multiple sheets in a workbook

5. Formula check
Excel Tips
Reveal complicated formulas easily with this quick keyboard shortcut
We’ve all experienced the super complicated formulas in an Excel, all the IF statements or Vlookups. Sometimes we need to review the formula and make sure the according cells are included in the formula. A quick way to do that check is through F2 on your keyboard.
Select the cell you want to view and simply click F2. It will show all the cells included in the formula, as well as a breakdown of the formula.

How to Reclaim 7,042MB of Hard-Drive Space Instantly

Instantly reclaim 7GB of hard-drive space by adjusting the maximum recycle bin size
Instantly reclaim 7GB of hard-drive space by adjusting the maximum recycle bin size
If you have a solid-state drive, or just a very large movie collection, you need every gigabyte of free space you can get.
Removing unnecessary applications, running disk clean-up, or deleting restore points are good ways to save space, but none of them is as effective or as easy as this overlooked tip.
When you install Windows a huge chunk of space – 7,042MB to be exact – gets set aside for your recycle bin. Windows does this so that you’ll have space to store deleted files until you decide to remove them permanently.
If you empty your recycle bin frequently you probably don’t need that much space in reserve – Set the recycle bin size to 1GB for example and you stand to save 6GB instantly.
Here’s how:
  1. Right-click on your recycle bin
  2. Click Properties
  3. Set the “Custom size” to 1,000MB
  4. Click Apply
Got any other space-saving tips to share?  Let us know in the comments!

:How to Hack Symbian S60 Phones to Install Unsigned Applications:

How to Hack Symbian S60 Phones to Install Unsigned Applications


Hack Symbian S60 PhonesIf you own a Nokia Symbian S60 phone, you will most likely be aware of the fact that it is not possible to install applications on it unless they are signed using a valid certificate. Have you been trying to install applications on your S60 3rd or 5th edition phone but ending up getting a certificate error? At times, this can be really annoying; but here is a smart solution to this problem!
Here in this post, I will show you how to hack your Symbian S60 3rd or 5th edition smartphone, so as to modify the phone’s firmware and completely bypass the mandatory signing requirement. So, once you are done with this one time hack, you should be able to install any compatible application including unsigned and those with an expired certificate.
 
What is the Need for Signing Applications?
From the 3rd edition onwards, all the Symbian S60 applications need to be signed in order to ensure their integrity, so that it would not be possible for a third party to tamper with the application. Also, signing ensures that you always install applications from a trusted source.
However, there are many freeware and beta applications that come unsigned as the developers cannot afford to buy a symbian certificate. Hence, it can be a real nightmare for the users who need to install such applications on their phones. So, here is a step-by-step procedure to hack your phone and permanently disable this security feature.
 
1. Download  the latest version from the HelloOX2 Ofiicial Website.
HelloOX2 is an excellent tool to hack Symbian S60 3rd, 5th and Symbian^3 smartphones which makes it possible to install a root certificate by gaining full access to the phone’s system files. With this capability, you can install anything you want on your phones without the need to worry about the annoying certificate error!
2. The signed version of HelloOX2 demands for a donation and hence, only the unsigned version is available for free download. So, if you have the unsigned version, you need to sign it before installing on your phone. In order to sign any application, you need to have the certificate and the key file which can be obtained as follows:
  • Go to the OPDA Website, get registered and login to your account.
  • Click on the “Apply Certificate” tab, enter the model number and the IMEI of your phone and then click on “Submit and Upload” button.
  • It will usually take up 24 hours for your certificate and key file to be generated and uploaded. To check the status of your certificate click on “My Certificate” tab. If the certificate is ready for the download you will see something as follows:
OPDA Certificate Status



 
  • Download the certificate and the key file on to your computer. Also download the SisSigner tool to sign your HelloOX2 application.
  • Open the SisSigner, load the HelloOX2.sis, certificate and the key file as shown below and click on “Sign”. Leave the “Key File Password” field blank.
SisSigner








  • Your HelloOX2 application is now signed and ready for the installation.
3. Install the signed HelloOX2 application on your phone and run it to start the hacking process, which is completely automatic. Within a minute your phone will be hacked. Once this is done, say goodbye to the annoying certificate error and install any application.

:How to Trace Any IP Address:

How to Trace Any IP Address


In my earlier post I had discussed about how to capture the IP address of a remote computer. Once you obtain this IP address it is necessary to trace it back to it’s source. So in this post I will show you how to trace any IP address back to it’s source. In fact tracing an IP address is very simple and easy than we think. There exists many websites through which you can trace any IP address back to it’s source. One of my favorite site is ip2location.com.
Just go to http://www.ip2location.com/demo.aspx and enter the IP address that you want to trace in the dialog box and click on “Find Location”‘. With just a click of a button you can find the following information for any given IP address.
1. Country in which the IP is located
2. Region
3. City
4. Latitude/Longitude
5. Zip Code
6. Time Zone
7. Name of the ISP
8. Internet Speed
9. Weather Station
10. Area Code and
11. Domain name associated with the IP address.
A sample snapshot of the results from ip2location.com is given below
ip2location_results
You can also visually trace route any IP address back to it’s location. For this just visit http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/visual-tracert/ and enter the IP you want to trace in the dialog box and hit the “Proxy Trace” button. Wait for few seconds and the visual trace route tool displays the path Internet packets traverse to reach a specified destination. Hope this helps. Please pass you comments.

Changed Google Policy and Safer internet Browsing





Changed Google Policy and Safer internet Browsing

I hope you all have noticed the yellow box that appears as you search something on Google and just in case you have missed out, Its because Google has changed its privacy policy that will be affected from 1st of March 2012.


With this changed policy now Google reserves the right to view your navigations and even follow your activities even on sites as famous as Youtube, Gmail or even the main Search Engine.  But there is one SERIOUS limitation with the changed policy, that It does not work until you are logged into the Google account.
Who will be effected most by this ? The people who would be affected the most are the Android Users who are always logged in into the Gmail accounts to use the Android at its extreme. That means they cannot access ANDROID MARKET  Yeah no Android Market means a useless Dumb device that can make calls play music and surf web with the pre-installed applications.
The Google officials says that there is no point in backing out from the new policy so everyone who used Google is bound to follow it  after 1st March 2012.
But the bright part about this changed policy is that Google is trying to make your Internet experience safer and  simplified. What Google officials are saying that is that even after all these changed policies your personal information is still safe and won’t be compromised at any cost.
For the details about how Google will use your information , check Goole Privacy Policy.
  
Tips for the Safe Browsing:
  • Never Search for your personal information in the Search Engines i.e. Your Credit card numbers, your name, and other important personal information. All these thing can lead a way to you, and can also reveal your intensity to the possible hackers.
  • Never use your ISP’s search engine as your ISP knows who you are so they can easily track you.
  • Don’t login into the search engines, like Gmail on the very right top check if you are logged in. All your information is being monitored if you are logged in.

  • Block Cookies for your search engines.
  • Always use dynamic IP address, that will vary you every time you are connected to Internet.
and
  • Use proxy servers if possible.
