Speed Your Browser By Changing Your DNS

Image
Most people use the default DNS settings provided by their ISP, and while they are usually sufficient for most purposes, there are plenty of free options out there, like OpenDNS and Google DNS. Namebench is a free app that checks to see whether your current settings are optimized and, if not, which free option is best for you. Here's how to use it: Download and install Namebench . Fire it up and choose your settings. Keep the top two boxes checked. If you're concerned about network censorship, check the third box, and if you want to help the developers, check the last box. You can tweak the rest if you're outside U.S. or want to experiment with different browsers. Click Start Benchmark and wait till  Namebench runs its tests. It should take several minutes. A browser tab should pop open when Namebench is done and give you a list of DNS servers and how much faster they are than the one you're currently using, unless yours are already the fastest possi

How to Password Protect & Encrypt Files [Mac/Windows]

Image
N owadays, the computer has a very important place in everybody’s life, as a personal gadget used for a lot of different things. Everything is digital and it is stored on a computer’s hard-disk or on a cloud system, offering you easier access to your favorite data. Computers have become the place where you hold pictures, documents, favorite music and everything else in the same place. While storing may include regular data, random and even useless information, people may also keep important stuff, such as wedding photos, work documents, projects and others. Have you ever thought about protecting critical data with a password ? Taking into consideration that all information could be vulnerable to hackers or to unauthorized persons, this is a rather obvious procedure. Another reason to encrypt data can appear in case somebody else also uses that computer and you don’t want them to have access to private pictures, videos or documents. Keeping files prot

Our Divine Essence, the Soul

Hidden in the mortal’s heart the Eternal lives: He lives secret in the chamber of thy soul, A light shines there nor pain nor grief can cross. A darkness stands between thyself and him, Thou canst not hear or feel the marvellous Guest, Thou canst not see the beatific sun. SRI AUROBINDO ( Savitri , Book 6, Canto 2, p. 442)  That a person has a body, mind and intellect is obvious, but whether there is something more to a person is debatable. Religious and spiritual traditions assert that there is, and that not-so-obvious entity is the soul. The soul is not only there, it is the only lasting Reality of the individual, because, as the Gita says, neither can weapons damage the soul nor can the fire burn it (2:23). The next question that arises is how it matters whether or not the soul exists if it is not a part of our experience anyway. To get to the soul of such questions, I have found it handy to go to an episode from a Hindi film, Saath saath . The hero of the film

‘Corruption’ -- perhaps the most used word today

‘Corruption’ is perhaps the most used word today, in this over–consuming, free -market era. The over-used word may sound cliché but it is never irrelevant, thanks to the minute-to-minute updates we get every day from a plethora of media options, whether it is the television, internet or good old newspapers. If news is being dished out 24X7, it is thanks to ghoos revelations that makes our hair stand on end as one story runs into another in a never-ending karmic cycle. Corruption seems to have pervaded every aspect of our lives, reaching the farthest corners of the existing socioeconomic structure! It’s amazing, definitely…to think that now we are perhaps more aware and powered with the equipment of knowledge…or the truth. Now the question is: Is it pure knowledge? Are we really empowered…with it? Isn’t it more likely that you are just an observer…of the situation, as an indifferent ‘jeevan-mukta’? Helpless at the avalanche of ‘corruption news’, you are just letting yo

Remember, This Too Shall Pass

On any given day, our emotional state changes many times. One moment, something good happens to us and we are joyful. The next moment we receive a bad news and we start feeling sad. Then, we get a cheque in the mail unexpectedly and we are happy again. Next, on the way home, someone cuts us off on the highway and we are enraged. When we get home and find our children received honours in school we are overjoyed. Thus, if we select any one day in our life, we will find a variety of moods and emotions playing out.                                         S ometimes we go through longer periods of depression and sadness. Some lose all hope. Many try to drown their pain in self-abuse and take to alcohol or drugs. Often we feel that we will never be happy again. How are saints and mystics different than us? Saints realise that the soul is eternal and changeless. Life is passing show and the soul is an observer. Sometimes we see happy periods and at other times, sad periods. Wh

Hackers go Social Because you Trust Links from Friends

H acking has always been perceived as a mystical evil act. Besides victim’s loss, the other reasons are hackers’ quick adaptability with the newest technology and their unpredictable nature. One of which has been witnessed in recent times. Hackers, now instead of breaking into your network and gaining access to your computer, devised a new psychological trick – connecting with you . There has been a slight drift in the ways hackers used to get access to one’s account. If you have been following the hacking conference Defcon , you would know that hackers have sort of put a stop to the traditional exploit development – which was anything from brute forcing several hundreds of passwords per second, to the phishing emails where you are tricked with the authenticity of the source. It’s the age of social networking, and I hate to break this to you, but hackers too have gone social. Since last couple of years, hackers and malicious social engineers have turned their focus t

My Gmail Account got Hacked – What to do and How to Prevent This?

Image
I admit it; my email is my life, my second name, my license plate in the online world. My PayPal account is associated with it, all my online jobs point to that email. I thought that setting up a password of 50 characters long would be enough, but I have chosen only words and numbers. That’s how I almost got hacked. Another huge mistake that I made was to be logged in all the time. This is silly, especially when you’re basically living online, like I do. That’s when I realized that I depend so much on Google. I use Google Reader , Google News , Google Calendar , Google Books , Google+ , Adsense and other products.  You may ask, why do I use them? Well, because they are good, simple and they suit my needs. So, how did the hack happen? Was I that dumb to let a foreigner destroy my online identity or as one’s activity grows on the web, you become an easy target for them. How do big bloggers protect their email accounts, on

What to do When Your Gmail Account is Full

Image
A ccording to Google , those 10 GB of free offered storage should be more than enough for an average person, who receives mails on a daily basis. Well, when one discovers that “average” is not exactly a word defining its personality, or its inbox, issues appear. Filling up 10 GB of space just with emails is not an easy task but, we’ve found that this happens, and usually to people who are unaware about why their Gmail account is getting filled up . Technically, when your Google Mail Inbox is almost full , Gmail will bounce all incoming emails and will also stop the owner from sending any new messages, while completely taking control over the situation. Thus, filled Gmail accounts become useless due to storage issues and there are only a few good suggestions to get it back in a working stage. Gmail is FULL? No problem Practically, getting some storage space back can be done simply by deleting trash items, spam, old ne
