Since, Android is based on Linux kernel, gaining root gives you full control over your Android and this process is called rooting. iPhone users call this jailbreaking ;)<br /><h2>So why root?</h2><ol><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Install custom ROMs</span><br />There are many ROMs which are customized for many improvements such as speed and performance. For example, the popular <a href="http://www.cyanogenmod.com/">CyanogenMod</a>, created by one of Android's most notable hackers, optimizes performance for both the G1 and MyTouch 3G handsets. (<a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/how_to_hack_your_android_phone.php">readwriteweb.com</a>)</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Overclocking</span><br />Overclocking sets the clock rate for the processor for speed or to save battery, but do with caution, it could damage your phone. <a href="http://www.appbrain.com/app/setcpu-for-root-users/com.mhuang.overclocking">SetCPU</a> allows overclocking your Android, and it also has different power schemes.</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Increase your internal memory</span><br />A2SD+ allows to install applications on a Linux partition (ext2, ext3, ext4) on your SD card, which behaves as your internal memory. It can be done by <a href="http://leedroid.protogenlabs.com/wiki/partitioning-your-sd-card-ready-for-a2sd">creating a partition</a> using Linux or using <a href="http://www.appbrain.com/app/rom-manager/com.koushikdutta.rommanager">ROM Manager</a>. Most custom ROMs comes with A2SD+ support.</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Move applications to SD card</span><br />This feature is already included in Froyo (Android 2.2), which allows some applications to be moved to SD card.<br /></li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Titanium Backup</span><br /><a href="http://www.appbrain.com/app/titanium-backup-%E2%98%85-root/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup">Titanium Backup</a> allows to backup, restore, and freeze your applications with its data, including protected applications.</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Nandroid backup</span><br />Nandroid allows to take full system backup and also restore them using recovery mode such as <a href="http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html">ClockworkMod Recovery</a>.</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">MarketAccess</span><br /><a href="http://amip.tools-for.net/wiki/android/marketaccess">MarketAccess</a> gives access to applications including paid ones, which are not available in your country or operator, by emulating the SIM card of a chosen operator.</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Wifi tethering</span><br />Allows to <a href="http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/">tethering</a> your 3G/2G internet via Wifi or bluetooth from your Android. Wifi tethering feature is also now included in Froyo (Android 2.2) as <span style="font-style: italic;">Wi-Fi Hotspot</span>.</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Take screen shots!</span><br />I know, stupid isn't it? You can't even take a screen shot without root access. See market for screen shot applications.</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Install custom themes, addons, and more!</span></li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Because you can! :D</span><br />Seriously, wouldn't you want to see your phone's full capability? Now that I've 11 reasons to root, I should totally root my phone! Of cause it'll void my warranty, but its only a small chance to screw up my phone, and I'm willing to take that chance.</li></ol><h2>Getting ready to root</h2><h3>Making backup</h3>Before you root, don’t forget to backup your data, unless you’re going to completely wipe everything and skip this step ;)<br />If you’re using your Google account for your contacts, calendar and mail, you don’t need to worry about them because it’ll come back after you sync again. Other than that, you might want to backup your messages, call log and other application data. There are a couple of good applications in the market for that, such as <a href="http://www.appbrain.com/app/sms-backup-restore/com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore">SMS Backup & Restore</a>, <a href="http://www.appbrain.com/app/backup-everything/com.BackupEverything">Backup Everything</a>, and <a href="http://www.appbrain.com/app/astro-file-manager/com.metago.astro">Astro File Manager</a>. You might want to backup your SD card too just in case ;)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">Warning: <span style="font-style: italic;">by rooting, you’re voiding your warranty, and I won’t be responsible for any damage that you may cause to your phone, so use this at your own risk :)</span></span><br /><br />Rooting has now become pretty much easier as just a few clicks – thanks to <a href="http://www.unrevoked.com/">Unrevoked</a>! Although there’s a small possibility to get your phone bricked, it’s still ALMOST impossible so let’s not worry about that now eh? ;) This method usually works for most of the HTC phones (see <a href="http://www.unrevoked.com/">Unrevoked</a>), and for other Android phones check out <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/">XDA-Developers</a> :) Before begin to root, make sure your phone is fully charged. Alright, let’s get on with it!<br /><h3>Installing HTC drivers</h3><ol><li>Download <span style="font-weight: bold;">HTC Sync</span><span style="font-style: italic;"> (mirror: <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11830950/blog%20files/htcsync_setup_3.0.5511.rar">HTC Sync for all HTC Android phones v3.0.5511</a>)</span> software for your phone from <a href="http://www.htc.com/">HTC website</a>.</li><li>Run the installation, and install the required items.</li><li>We just only need the HTC drivers (adb drivers) for now, so cancel the installation of HTC Sync after installing the required items.

You’re now rooted!</li></ol><h2>Flashing ROM/radio</h2>First of all, I wanted to try the new Gingerbread (Android 2.3), so I flashed the <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917570">CyanogenMod 7</a>, which is still in development (<a href="http://mirror.teamdouche.net/">nighty</a>). CyanogenMod releases doesn't have the HTC Sense UI, and I like the Sense UI better so I decided to go back to a Froyo (Android 2.2) ROM with Sense UI. I did a couple of <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743591">research</a> in <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/">XDA-Developers forum</a> and found out most users prefer <a href="http://leedroid.protogenlabs.com/">LeeDroid</a>.<br />Since now its rooted, it's possible to flash custom ROMs and radio. Flashing ROM and radio is pretty easy to do after you've rooted using <a href="http://www.unrevoked.com/">Unrevoked</a>, since it installs <a href="http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html">ClockworkMod Recovery</a> also with it.<br /><h3>Backup (Nandroid)</h3>Before flashing a ROM its safe to take a backup, just in case if something wrong. <a href="http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html">ClockworkMod Recovery</a> allows you to take a full Nandroid backup of your phone.<br /><ol><li>Turn off your phone, press <span style="font-weight: bold;">volume down</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;">power button</span>, and it'll take you to <span style="font-weight: bold;">HBOOT</span> menu.</li><li>Go to <span style="font-weight: bold;">Recovery</span> by pressing <span style="font-weight: bold;">volume down</span>, and press <span style="font-weight: bold;">power button</span> to <span>select</span>.

Believe me or not, it didn’t change anything at all! My desktop, documents, application settings, and even Windows Live Messenger (WLM) were just the same! Of cause, I took a nice backup! ^^...and I know how you’ll feel if you lost all your emoticons! ;) This is a simple guide to backup your WLM for those who doesn’t want to lose their emoticons and display pictures :P<br /><br />All your WLM data’s are stored in <span style="font-style: italic;">C:\Users\<span style="font-weight: bold;">xyz</span>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Messenger</span>, where <span style="font-weight: bold;">xyz</span> is your windows username. You’ll see all the email(s) that have been signed in from your messenger as folders.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/wlmbackup.gif"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 518px; height: 128px;" src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/wlmbackup.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Copy your email’s folder and put it in a safe place. After you’ve installed windows and WLM again, paste the folder back right exactly where you found it. Sign in and voila! :D<br /><br />Note: I haven't checked with WLM 2011 yet, but it works perfectly on WLM 2009 :)Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21037579.post-20611709599999791232010-07-04T16:12:00.013+05:002010-08-27T21:27:10.002+05:00Prince of Persia The Fogotten Sands<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/poptfs.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 472px; height: 465px;" src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/poptfs.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />"Marking the next-gen console debut of Ubisoft's critically acclaimed series, Prince of Persia - The Forgotten Sands is the next chapter in the Sands of Time universe.

His brother Malik decides to use the ancient power of the Sand in a desperate gamble to save the kingdom from total annihilation. To save the kingdom, the Prince must embark on an epic adventure in which he will learn to bear the mantle of true leadership, and that great power often comes with a great cost." <span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">(<a href="http://prince-of-persia.us.ubi.com/about.php">prince-of-persia.us.ubi.com</a>)</span></span><br /><br />Check out the gameplay trailer ;)<br /><br /><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JlowGUFT1pk&hl=en_US&fs=1?rel=0&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JlowGUFT1pk&hl=en_US&fs=1?rel=0&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object><br /><br />Prince of Persia also supports 3D and it's been rated as 'Excellent' by Nvidia.

Yes, i know its been a while now...it was released in March and i had to wait for a crack. The crack was released in April when i was in Male' with a crappy laptop, so now i'm back in KL with my PC, and i'm addicted! ^^<br /><br />Assassin's Creed II is the second game of the Assassin's Creed series from Ubisoft. Assassin's Creed II was given the Best Action Adventure Game of the Year by <a href="http://www.ign.com/">IGN</a>, Game of the Year by <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/">New York Times</a>, <a href="http://www.gamepro.com/">GamePro</a>, <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/">Eurogamer</a>, and was also nominated to several other awards too. The game starts right from the point where the Assassin's Creed (I) ended. Desmond finally escapes from Abstergo with Lucy, an employee in Abstergo and also an Assassin, bringing him into her secret hideout where he meets other two Assassins. Desmond agrees to help them by discovering Ezio Auditore da Firenze's memories to find the Pieces of Eden and to gain Ezio's skills through the bleeding effect using their own version of Animus, the Animus 2.0.<br /><br />Check out the gameplay trailer<br /><object style="font-size: 24px; line-height: 27px;" width="500" height="385"><param style="font-size: 24px; line-height: 27px;" name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/a12e3iKzqlw&hl=en_US&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"><param style="font-size: 24px; line-height: 27px;" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param style="font-size: 24px; line-height: 27px;" name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed style="font-size: 24px; line-height: 27px;" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/a12e3iKzqlw&hl=en_US&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="385"></embed></object><br /><br />Just like Assassin's Creed (I), Assassin's Creed II also supports 3D. According to <a href="http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-3d-games.html">Nvidia 3D games</a>, Assassin's Creed (I)'s rating is in 'Excellent' category, while Assassin's Creed II is under 'Good', but it works perfectly! <a href="http://www.nvidia.com/object/3D-Vision-Main.html">3D Vision</a> is pretty expensive, while <a href="http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-discover-main.html">3D Vision Discover</a> is cheaper, as you only need is a 3D supported graphics card and a <a href="http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-discover-glasses.html">3D Vision Discover glasses</a> or a stereoscopic glasses. For a starter, i recommend to try 3D Vision Discover. I recently bought a 3D Vision Discover glasses on <a href="http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3907.m570.l1312&_nkw=nvidia+3d+glasses&_sacat=See-All-Categories">eBay</a>.

I used to use the <a href="http://rapidshare.com/rapiduploader.html">RapidUploader</a> and the <a href="http://rapidshare.com/rsm.html">RapidShare Manager</a> to upload files. It takes like almost a day to upload a whole movie with some connection errors and so on... >.> So i figured another way by uploading to another server by FTP, and using remote upload to download those files into my RS account. I think its a pretty effective way to upload files to RS, just in case if those files were deleted or reported and you had to reupload it. Using the same idea, i thought why not remote upload those files directly from my PC! =D So, i used <a href="http://www.apachefriends.org/">XAMPP</a> as my web server, moved all the files into the web server and added the links into the remote upload list. It worked! ^^ ...of cause it'd work! :P RapidShare downloads 5 jobs simultaneously, and my upload speed is 0.5mb/s. After sometime i got this message saying the downloads have been aborted as it has exceeded 3 hours >.> I used 200mb files, so i changed them to 100mb files and then it worked perfectly! ^^<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/remoteup.gif"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 700px; height: 147px;" src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/remoteup.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>...on my way uploading Assassin's Creed II =DUnknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21037579.post-6729573034751719952009-09-22T20:10:00.015+05:002010-07-04T19:15:59.783+05:00How to make your own Counter Strike dedicated server on windowsIt’s been a year already since I started playing Counter Strike and most of the times I play with my friends on my dedicated server hosted in my computer. So, here is a complete guide for all you guys who want to make your own Counter Strike (CS) dedicated server on windows, starting from installing and configuring CS, till making a web based ranking system. It doesn’t matter if it’s a pc or a laptop, as long as it has xp or vista. I haven’t tried it on windows 7, but I think it should.<br /><br />Before we begin, these are the stuffs we’re gona cover in this guide:<br /><ul><li>Installing Counter-Strike: Source</li><li>Creating the server</li><li>Configuring the server</li><li>Installing Mani Admin Plugin (optional)</li><li>Intalling Metamod:Source</li><li>Intalling SourceMod</li><li>Installing Xampp</li><li>Intalling ActivePerl and DBD-mysql</li><li>Installing and configuring HLstatsX: CE</li><li>A bit of port forwarding</li></ul>This guide contains two parts. Making the CS server and making the webhost. Okay, so now let’s get it started! ;)<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">Installing and configuring the CS server</span><br /><ol><li><a href="http://rapidshare.com/users/NQ90WX">Download</a> and install Counter-Strike: Source (installation instructions will be included). Let’s assume that you’ve installed in C:\Program Files\Counter-Strike Source\</li><li>Go to C:\Program Files\Counter-Strike Source\ and look for srcds.exe. Right click and sent to desktop, which makes a shortcut on the desktop.</li><li>Go to desktop, rename the srcds.exe shortcut to server, right click on it and go to properties.</li><li>In the shortcut tab, add this line in the target field after the <span style="font-weight: bold;">srcds.exe"</span> part:<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">-console -game cstrike +maxplayers 30 +map de_dust2 -secure</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://s225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/?action=view&current=shortcut.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/shortcut.jpg" alt="shortcut" border="0" /></a><br /><br /></div>-console: <span style="font-style: italic;">tells it to run as the console command interface, instead of the GUI, which takes more load than console.</span><br />+maxplayers 30: <span style="font-style: italic;">how many players can join the game, in this case its 30.</span><br />+map de_dust2: <span style="font-style: italic;">which map the server is going start with, in this case its de_dust2.</span><br />-secure: <span style="font-style: italic;">secure the server with Valve Anti Cheat (VAC).</span></li><li>Now it’s time make some basic settings for your server by using the <span style="font-style: italic;">server.cfg</span> file in your C:\Program Files\Counter-Strike Source\cstrike\cfg\. If you don’t have that files, you can create it by using a <a href="http://www.cstrike-planet.com/cfgmaker?cfg=srcds">cfgmaker</a> to help you to generate it easily.</li><li>Go to desktop and run the <span style="font-style: italic;">server</span> shortcut. It should show up the console like the command prompt and starts to load some stuffs. If something goes wrong, go back to the step 4. After loading all those stuffs, run your Counter-Strike game, find your server in the LAN tab and join. Play around a bit; it’s just to check whether it works ;) So, basically your dedicated CS server is up and running on LAN, but it might not work through internet, when your friends try to join. Don’t worry; we’ll cover it up later. Shutdown the server by typing, <span style="font-style: italic;">exit</span> in the console.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/server.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 201px;" src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/server.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></li><li>This is an optional step, you may skip to step 9. Mani Admin Plugin makes it easier to manage the server, like kick, ban, change map, slap and <a href="http://www.mani-admin-plugin.com/isias/documentation/html_documents/mani_features.html">more</a>. <a href="http://www.mani-admin-plugin.com/">Download</a> Mani Admin Plugin and extract it into C:\Program Files\Counter-Strike Source\cstrike\. Go to your C:\Program Files\Counter-Strike Source\cstrike\addons\, open CreateVDF.exe, select <span style="font-style: italic;">cstrike</span> and save it as <span style="font-style: italic;">mani_admin_plugin.vdf</span>.</li><li>Run the server and let everything gets loaded. If the server crashes, go back to step 7 and try installing a previous version of Mani Admin Plugin like v1.2 Beta O. After the server loads everything, to check whether Mani Admin Plugin was loaded, type:<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">plugin_print<br /></span>...and it should show something like:<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://s225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/?action=view&current=plugin_print.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/plugin_print.jpg" alt="mani admin" border="0" /></a><br /></div>…or if it doesn’t, something is wrong with your installation. For troubleshooting, configuration and commands check the <a href="http://www.mani-admin-plugin.com/isias/documentation/">documentation</a>. You can shutdown the server now.</li><li>In order to make the HLstatsX in game ranking system to work, you need to have SourceMod, and SourceMod requires Metamod:Source. So let’s download <a href="http://www.metamodsource.net/downloads">Metamod:Source</a>, <a href="http://wiki.alliedmods.net/Installing_Metamod:Source">installation instructions</a> and troubleshooting can be found in <a href="http://wiki.alliedmods.net/">AlliedModders Wiki</a>.</li><li>Download <a href="http://www.sourcemod.net/downloads.php">SourceMod</a> and extract it into C:\Program Files\Counter-Strike Source\cstrike\. To check whether the addons are loaded, run your server and type:<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">meta list</span><br />…and it should show this line:<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://s225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/?action=view&current=metalist.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/metalist.jpg" alt="meta list" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;">If it works, shutdown the server and proceed to next step, and if it doesn’t work, go back to step 9 or check out the <a href="http://wiki.alliedmods.net/">AlliedModders Wiki</a>.</div></div></li><li>Download the <a href="http://code.google.com/p/hlstatsxcommunity/downloads/list">HLstatsX: CE</a>, extract it somewhere, and copy the <span style="font-style: italic;">sourcemod</span> folder into C:\Program Files\Counter-Strike Source\cstrike\addons\.</li></ol>The game server is now ready, and it’s time to setup the web server part now ;)<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">Installing and configuring the web server</span><br /><ol><li>I’m gona’ use Xampp as the web server pakage. <a href="http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#641">Download</a> and install Xampp as to the <a href="http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#522">instructions</a>.</li><li>“<span style="font-style: italic;">HLstatsX Community Edition uses a Perl daemon to parse the log streamed from the game server</span>”, so Perl has to be installed. You can use the <a href="http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#1176">Perl addon</a> for Xampp, or use <a href="http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/">ActivePerl</a> to run the perl scripts. I use ActivePerl and I recommend using it :)</li><li>Open up Perl Package Manager (PPM) by typing <span style="font-style: italic;">ppm</span> in the run. Search for <span style="font-style: italic;">dbd-mysql</span> in the PPM, right click on it and install. Go to file, Run Marked Actions and you’re done!<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://s225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/?action=view&current=ppm.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/sykez/blog/ppm.jpg" alt="ppm" border="0" /></a><br /></div></li><li>Copy the <span style="font-style: italic;">web</span> folder from the extracted HLstatsX file, into <span style="font-style: italic;">htdocs</span> of your Xampp web server. Rename the folder to <span style="font-style: italic;">stats</span>.</li><li>I assume that your web server is working by now. So, go to <a href="http://localhost/phpmyadmin/">http://localhost/phpmyadmin/</a> and make a new database. The username is <span style="font-style: italic;">root</span> and there is no password by default. Let’s call this database, <span style="font-style: italic;">hlstatsx</span>.</li><li>Click on the <span style="font-style: italic;">hlstatsx</span> database on the left side which you created, and go to the '<span style="font-style: italic;">Import</span>' tab on the top. Under the ‘<span style="font-style: italic;">File to import</span>’, browse to the extracted HLstatsX folder, \sql\<span style="font-style: italic;">install.sql</span> and ‘<span style="font-style: italic;">Go</span>’.</li><li>Open <span style="font-style: italic;">config.php</span>, in your web server stats folder, with a notepad. Edit the file to match your settings:<br />define("DB_NAME", "<span style="font-style: italic;">hlstatsx</span>");<br />define("DB_USER", "<span style="font-style: italic;">root</span>"); - the default xampp username<br />define("DB_PASS", ""); - the default xampp password is *none*</li><li>Go to <a href="http://localhost/stats/hlstats.php?mode=admin">http://localhost/stats/hlstats.php?mode=admin</a> and login as <span style="font-style: italic;">admin</span>, with <span style="font-style: italic;">123456</span> as the password. Add your server under game settings and play around a bit with the HLstatsX: CE settings.<br />Server Address: <span style="font-style: italic;">your internal network IP</span><br />Server Port: <span style="font-style: italic;">27015</span><br />Server Name & Rcon Password: <span style="font-style: italic;">See your server.cfg</span><br />Game Mod: <span style="font-style: italic;">Sourcemod</span></li><li>Go to your C:\Program Files\Counter-Strike Source\cstrike\cfg\ and open <span style="font-style: italic;">autoexec.cfg</span> with a notepad. Add the following lines:<br /><blockquote>log on<br />logaddress_delall<br />logaddress_add <span style="font-style: italic;">IP:PORT</span></blockquote><br />your IP will be the internal IP and the port can be 27500.</li><li>Copy the <span style="font-style: italic;">perl</span> folder from the extracted HLstatsX to the stats web server folder. Open <span style="font-style: italic;">hlstats.conf</span> with a notepad and edit it to match your settings:<br />DBHost "<span style="font-style: italic;">localhost</span>"<br />DBUsername "<span style="font-style: italic;">root</span>"<br />DBPassword ""<br />DBName "<span style="font-style: italic;">hlstatsx</span>"<br />Port <span style="font-style: italic;">27500</span></li><li>Open up notepad and paste the following line:<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">perl hlstats.pl</span><br />..save it as <span style="font-style: italic;">hlx_run.cmd</span> in that folder. You may create a shortcut for the <span style="font-style: italic;">hlx_run.cmd</span> in your desktop for easy use. Try running it. If it shows an error and closes, try checking your <span style="font-style: italic;">hlstats.conf</span>, or if there is no error and if it doesn’t closes, it’s working!</li></ol>Your game server and web server is now ready, but still you’re not done yet! ;) The last part is to open or forward your ports. To do that, you’ve to login into your router and set the ports. Most of the routers have the configuration for the web server and for Counter-Strike too, but if you don’t have or you don’t know, you can go to <a href="http://www.portforward.com/">PortForward.com</a> to get it done :)<br /><blockquote><span style="font-weight: bold;">For Counter-Strike server:</span><br />Protocol / Port start - Port end / Port Map<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">UDP / 1200-1200 / 1200</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">UDP / 27000-27015 / 27000</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">TCP / 27020-27039 / 27020</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">For web server:</span><br />Protocol / Port start - Port end / Port Map<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">TCP / 80-80 / 80</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">TCP / 443-443 / 443</span></blockquote>You can check whether your web server is working by going to <a href="http://www.hidemyass.com/">Hidemyass.com</a>, enter your external IP and browse. You can get your external IP by going to <a href="http://www.whatismyip.com/">Whatismyip.com</a>. If you can access, that means its working! Once you are done, it’s time to finally start the server.<br /><ol><li>Run the <span style="font-style: italic;">hlx_run</span> and the CS <span style="font-style: italic;">server</span> shortcut from the desktop.</li><li>Run your CS game, join your server and add some bots.</li><li>Minimize the game, go to <a href="http://localhost/stats/">http://localhost/stats/</a> and check the <span style="font-style: italic;">players</span> and <span style="font-style: italic;">played times</span> whether it matches. If it does, it’s working correctly, if it doesn’t, go back and check your steps carefully, because something is really screwed up!</li><li>Tell your friends your IP and let the fun begin! :D If your IP is dynamic, its’ kinda annoying when your IP changes every time. So, you can use a free DNS service like <a href="http://freedns.afraid.org/">afraid.org</a>, which has many different kewl domains and they have a free DNS updating software so that, when every time your IP changes, it updates your DNS settings.</li></ol>So, this is it! I hope this guide helped to make your own CS dedicated server and also about the web server too.

Sometimes files get lost due to some program crashes, or files get deleted accidentally, or by a virus or maybe some other problems. It is possible to recover files easily which are deleted </span><span style="font-size:100%;">permanently, even if you empty recycle bin and even if you format your hard disk. To do the recovery process, you need a software to do it. I found a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_data_recovery_software">list</a> of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_recovery">data recovery</a> software in Wikipedia, and also <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_recovery">Jaa</a> and <a href="http://bondhalhey.wordpress.com/2006/04/25/data-recovery-with-r-studio/">Bondhalhey</a> have also posted an entry on data recovering which may also help.</span></p><br /><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:100%;"><u>Securing Deleted Data<o:p></o:p></u></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:100%;">Now that the deleted files can be recovered, I’ve been thinking then how to erase those deleted files in the hard disk like a clean new born one. After hours of surfing the web I found an <a href="http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/%7Epgut001/pubs/secure_del.html">article</a> which explains the data recovering and securing them <a href="http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/%7Epgut001/pubs/secure_del.html">(Secure Deletion of Data from Magnetic and Solid-State Memory by Peter Gutmann)</a> and some software which erases the deleted files. I found that <a href="http://www.killdisk.com/">Killdisk</a> also does that job so I tried with it and it works but, because I got the free version some features are disabled so I didn’t like it at all. So then I tried <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBAN">Darik's Boot and Nuke 1.0.7</a>. Darik's Boot and Nuke is freeware and is available to <a href="http://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/dban/dban-1.0.7_i386.exe">download</a> from the <a href="http://dban.sourceforge.net/">project page</a>. I found that Darik's Boot and Nuke 1.0.7 has the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gutmann_method">Gutmann method</a> feature which is a high security method but following this method will take a lot of time depending on the hard disk capacity you have. Darik's Boot and Nuke software first create a bootable floppy disk/USB flash drive. It is very easy use and by entering “autonuke” command, it wipes out all the devices connected to the computer automatically. <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=61951">Here</a> are some <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=61951">screen-shots</a> and features of it. So I hope this will help many people and specially for companies, offices, shops and others who sell their old computers to buy new ones.<br /></span></p>sYKEzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00999011429595219106noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21037579.post-1164310825679246502006-11-24T00:34:00.000+05:002007-10-04T19:49:51.379+05:00New Theme<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/5379/newthemeprevwqb4.gif"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/5379/newthemeprevwqb4.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Arrh!!

WMP 11 is available for Windows XP to download and of course to the upcoming </span><a style="font-family: verdana;" href="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/experiences/music.mspx">Windows Vista</a><span style="font-family:verdana;">. Windows Media Player (WMP) 11 features are built-in support for </span><a style="font-family: verdana;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URGE">Urge</a><span style="font-family:verdana;">, which is a subscription music service co-developed with MTV, streamlined and simplified interface, fast access to shortcuts and settings, universal back and forward button, revamped playback controls, faster CD ripping, Reverse Sync from portable device to PC, improved searching, and supports new formats for ripping and playing music, namely Windows Media Audio Professional and WAV Lossless. WMP 11 is </span><a style="font-family: verdana;" href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/11/design.aspx">designed</a><span style="font-family:verdana;"> with a whole new look to the digital entertainment. "When designing Windows Media Player 11, we looked at the needs of a wide range of users—from people who are just getting started with digital media to discriminating audiophiles with very large collections on their PCs. By incorporating this feedback into the design process, we made some significant changes to the Player to deliver a simpler, more visual way to navigate music, video, and other digital media and further improve the overall experience." </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">For me, WMP 11 looks rocks with the new </span><a style="font-family: verdana;" href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/11/design.aspx">design</a><span style="font-family:verdana;"> and its is one of the main thing which made it a success.

So this article contains the popular and easiest working methods on bypassing and so you can wont get any annoying WGA notifications and you will pass from the WGA validation tool and of course then you can download the Microsoft products such as Windows Defender, Internet Explorer 7, Windows Media Player 11, DirectX etc.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Steps to bypass Windows:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >*Note:</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> This method most likely works on Windows XP SP2 (Service Pack 2) only. If you still haven’t upgrade to SP2, you can download Windows XP Service Pack 2 that no need any validation to download and install via </span><a style="font-family: verdana;" href="http://www.mydigitallife.info/2006/10/08/direct-download-link-for-microsoft-downloads-center-wga-protected-software/">direct download link</a><span style="font-family:verdana;">.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">1.

Double-click on the file in the registry entry file (.reg) in the archive, and answer as 'Yes' when asked whether want to add the information to the registry to hack the registry.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">3.

So i restarted my pc and after that i've been getting this annoying error everytime my computer is turned on and connected to internet for about 5 or 12 mins and the error message appears and it disconnects me from the internet, MSN , IRC and browser too and couldnt reconnect again. So i restart my pc everytime i get that error, was too lazy to fix it. hehehe! I got really mad about that problem and i started to work on my other pc with the same connection, not even half an hour, the annoying error popped on that even! So finally i thought of fixing that.<br /><br /></span><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/7541/mainerrorzo9.gif"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/7541/mainerrorzo9.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/1563/reportyh4.gif"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/1563/reportyh4.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">(click on the image to enlarge)</span><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div></div><span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" >I checked my event viewer and i found this:<br /><br />Event Type: Error<br />Event Source: Application Error<br />Event Category: (100)<br />Event ID: 1000<br />Date: 11/19/2006<br />Time: 11:11:19 PM<br />User: N/A<br />Computer: SYKEZ<br /><br />Description:<br />Faulting application svchost.exe, version 5.1.2600.2180, faulting module netapi32.dll, version 5.1.2600.2180, fault address 0x0000a3c0.<br /><br />Data:<br />0000: 41 70 70 6c 69 63 61 74 Applicat<br />0008: 69 6f 6e 20 46 61 69 6c ion Fail<br />0010: 75 72 65 20 20 73 76 63 ure svc<br />0018: 68 6f 73 74 2e 65 78 65 host.exe<br />0020: 20 35 2e 31 2e 32 36 30 5.1.260<br />0028: 30 2e 32 31 38 30 20 69 0.2180 i<br />0030: 6e 20 6e 65 74 61 70 69 n netapi<br />0038: 33 32 2e 64 6c 6c 20 35 32.dll 5<br />0040: 2e 31 2e 32 36 30 30 2e .1.2600.<br />0048: 32 31 38 30 20 61 74 20 2180 at<br />0050: 6f 66 66 73 65 74 20 30 offset 0<br />0058: 30 30 30 61 33 63 30 000a3c0<br /><br /><br />I met few people who got the same annoying error and some people told its a virus or something. So i scaned my pc with NOD32, Ad-aware SE , Spyware Doctor which are update-to-date, but it didnt detect any virus or anything. Some people have formatted their pc, but still the annoying error appears. I was so desperated and finally one of my friend came with a solution for this and since there are many people who got this old annoying error and also it keeps increasing day by day. So i've decided to post about this so people who got this problem can fix it without getting mad ;)<br />All you got to do is, close the so called port 135 & 445<br /><br />To close it, do the following steps:<br /></span><ol style="font-family:verdana;"><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Open Registry Editor by going to Start>Run and in the box type: regedit.exe and press OK.</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Now, from the Registry Editor, go to Edit>Find or Ctrl+F and write "TransportBindName" in the box without the quotation mark. It may take few mins to search. This value can be found in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\NetBT\Parameters</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Double-click on that value and delete the default value in the box and press OK.</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Find the value "EnableDCOM" which can be found in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Ole</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Double-click on that value and set the value in the box as 'N' which currently maybe set as 'Y'.</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Close the Registry Editor and restart your pc.<br /></span></li></ol><span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" ><br />You can also download <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.firewallleaktester.com/tools/wwdc.exe">Windows Worms Doors Cleaner (WWDC)</a> and close 135, 445 and NetBIOS (if necessary) or all the ports, but by disabling only 135 & 445 my pc seems to be normal without formatting my pc. One of my friend told this problem can be fixed by a <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894391">patch</a> from Microsoft and by using a registry cleaner and also he told this problem can be created by a virus called w32/sbotworm which attacks those ports. That virus is detectable from McAfee and the virus maybe still trying to get around the fix and again create that same old annoying error. So you need to update windows and virus definitions.<br /><br />So anyways i hope you can get out of this annoying thingy. Good luck and thankx for slees and vixhal for this great solution.
