The research feature is not only a Word 2007 tool but it is inbuilt into every Office 2007 application. It also combines several third party sources like Gale's company profile s, WorldLingo or HighBeam along with standard issue Microsoft resources like Encarta or Live Sear
You can set up tunnel for any service on any IP anywhere. You'll just need to set up the program to connect to localhost on the source port you set up for the tunnel. It's a pretty nifty way to connect to stuff you may not be able to otherwise, due firewall issues you may encounter. All you need is a single port to get to your SSH server, and it of course has to be running on that p
Most of us fire up Microsoft Word for our run of the mill document needs. Most of us don't peek under the hood to see and use the other ready at hand tools that are just a few clicks away. I too accuse myself of this common shortcoming. It is perhaps a dire need or a serendipitous event that lead me to exploit a feature until now igno
SpeedCrunch also supports smart correction and automatic completion so you can type and evaluate your mathematical expression quickly and accurately. In the event that you typed the wrong expression, there is the syntax highlighting that highlights the error and prompts you to make the correct
Nearly every single file on your computer contains some type of personal information - either information about the user, information on setting e.g. time, date, etc. In any case, it may be good to remove some of this information before making it available to the public, such as uploading a video or image onl
Here is the place where you can change exactly what Search indexes and when it indexes. You can also rebuild it from scratch, something I would recommend every 2 - 3 months. Without this, old files that no longer exist will hang around in the index messing up your searches and slowing it down. You'll find Windows Search 4.0 will rebuild your index much more rapidly then previous versi
It is also useful if you are surfing on a network where you may be concerned about others observing your traffic. Perhaps you are connecting from a hotel, a client site, or from work (you didn't learn that from me) and you do not want others monitoring your traf
One of the most ridiculous features of Vista are the continuous "confirmation" messages. Messages that pop up nearly every time you attempt to run any unknown application. Almost all of which are completely unnecessary, and waste time. Here is how you can disable these annoying uac notifications, quickly and eas
The Add Services button puts in the choices in the Research Options dialog dropdown.
Similarly, the Update/Remove button updates or removes the services of our choice. The Parental Control is a filter which sieves the results and screens out the offensive and the vile in the resu
Vista is riddled with an extremely large amount of "security" measures that may, or may not, be helpful. Running Vista as an Administrator may help, but did you know there is an even higher Administrator? Well, there is! All you need to do to unlock it is the follow
The research functionality includes quite a few known resources as can be seen from the dropdown. Third party reference mines like Dow Jones' Factiva iWorks, the premiere online library HighBeam, Gale Company Profiles and Microsoft's own Live Search coupled with its rich Encarta dictionary and encyclope
Let's first set up a dynamic tunnel for port 1080. The port you use for a dynamic tunnel is actually arbitrary, but since port 1080 is often used for SOCKS proxies that's what we'll use. Type 1080 in the Source port field, select Dynamic as the port type, and then click the Add but
If you think that freeware and industrial strength file security can never meet, the open source TrueCrypt could prove you wrong. TrueCrypt not only encrypts data (using 256-bit AES and 448-bit Blowfish algorithms) but also cloaks the files in hidden volumes. TrueCrypt functions by creating a virtual encrypted disk which appears as a real disk volume. Files can be encrypted on the fly when moved into this volume and decrypted when moved
So in the example I'm going to provide, we will say the home network has two computers. One is a Linux box running the SSH server and the other is a Windows box with Remote Desktop enabled. We want to set up two tunnels: a dynamic tunnel and a local tunnel to connect to the Windows game Streaming|https://windowsmastery.com/ machine via Remote desk
Cryptainer is a near twin to Cryptainer. It has a similar intuitive interface and follows the same process of secured protection. It similarly creates encrypted drives which can only be accessed by a password. When the drive is unloaded, it disappears from Windows and can only be accessed with the password. Similar to the aforementioned software, self decrypting files can also be sent to others through em
Dynamic - This acts as a SOCKS proxy that can be used to tunnel traffic through the network where the SSH server resides. You can then configure applications that support SOCKS proxies (such as a web browser) to take advantage of it. I'll demonstrate how to set up Firefox to work through a dynamic tun
