How to make your own Stephen Hawking MS Agent character or any character and have it speak and move on your windows desktop

Tue, 18 Oct 2011 04:24:27 0000

Last Month, I wrote and showed a piece of Autoit3 script to call up Microsoft office agents like Clippy and Merlin and control it and use the speech engine to get it to talk. It was a
basic program that needed more work and development but since I have found a piece of software someone else wrote which does the same as I was proposing and I
found out how to install the missing Agent software in Windows XP and Win 7 if you dont
have Office installed and to also create your own characters or download other peoples invented characters for hours of fun!

TubeDigger - Capturing Streaming content from OnDemand Sites when you have slow connections or just want to watch it on your own video player like VLC video player

Fri, 30 Sep 2011 20:26:27 0000

Many countries offer free and paid online video streaming called OnDemand, Replay or Plus
"Catch UP TV" and ABCiview

Such Sites as TV3.co.nz, TVNZ, SBS, Plus7, Ten.com.au, Hulu, BBC
basically pretty much any onDemand content can be captured despite their efforts to stop it.

Most don't allow saving content and force you to watch via your computer screen only using their web based crappy video players.

Its so much nicer to be able to save the video file directly to hard drive and watch any time
not only saving your ISP bandwidth data cap, but also avoiding video cliches and video pauses and intermittent problems

The files are normally highly compressed to reduce size but offering reasonable viewing quality

Often the format used is a MP4 variant called FLV (flash video) from adobe or other MP4 video formats. Sound used to be mp3 but now they using a MP4 variant called M4A.

however there's some good tools out there that can decode the streams and save directly to a disk drive as of October 2011 these have been tested

in fact anything that can go to the PC/laptop screen can be captured but its nicer to have a tool that saves the actual content over screen saving which is reduced quality

Firefox Taskbar Icon vanishes or does not show up under XP SP2 or SP3 - Fix IT Tool Solution

Fri, 8 Jul 2011 04:33:33 0000

There is an annoying bug in Firefox or Mozilla Browsers does not seem to matter which version even firefox 3.6 (FF 1 to 4) all suffer this bug under Windowx XP (and even maybe under Windows 7)

some have blamed extension bugs and bad installs or malware, but reading the about web someone said even a free XP install and FF 3.5 install the taskbar Icon would vanish.

The only solution was to use ALT-TAB until now - Ive written a small quuck launch app to force them all to show

Windows explorer can fail to rename or move or execute a file with long names. This is a FIX IT TOOL

Sun, 26 Jun 2011 00:41:28 0000

Lets say you have a filename with a long description in c: root folder and windows allows you to do this but some applications and tools can move this file to sub folders and then the problem exists that it can no longer be moved or anything done with it via the graphical Interface (GUI). This tool uses dos calls like substs from a nice user interface to get around the problem!

Jessa Ventura - On 9/11 and Pentagon Plane Crashes and other great documentaries on this subject

Tue, 3 May 2011 17:50:47 0000

The idea that a missile or explosives—not a hijacked jetliner—damaged the Pentagon on September 11, 2001 seems the most unlikely of 9/11 theories. That is, until you look at all the factors, which include eyewitness testimony, crime scene video, expert analysis and the question why, with 85 cameras trained on the building, have only five frames of crash footage have ever been released? Jesse Ventura leads a serious investigation into a tangled web of clues that some say are too sacred to even touch

An interesting article exposing the flaws in our science models and science laws, providing an alternative explanation on the Atom model and more

Tue, 3 May 2011 16:51:02 0000

Here is an article that can be freely downloaded and read .

It covers such topics from the Big Bang Theory to the Atom Model. A new Unified Theory that might explain why Cern and their collider will never find the god particle. Has religion corrupted our science by misleading it down the garden path
its time to rethink outside the box we have built around ourselves and explore simpler reasoning to explain how things might really work.

There seemed a lack of free tools about that could scrape and display Sales figures for Clickbank.com
which is a service that sales mostly Information products like ebooks. In the past CB (Clickbank) used to send email alerts when an affiliate made a sale and they stopped doing that years ago, with the only way to check was to manually login to check.

Ghost Adventures - yet another USA show trying to compete with TAPS fame

Fri, 13 Feb 2009 02:53:00 0000

Although this show is entertaining... it lacks real evidence and equipment... at times your wondering if they are taking the pee out of other shows.. but they seem to get scared, touched by invisible beings so I suspect they trying to be true. The very pilot special released on SCIFI channel was the best one still with the ghost man walking across the room but the offshot tv series can only get better.

Is there a ghost pressence watching the new offshoot show to GHOST HUNTERS (TAPS) called GHI?

Fri, 13 Feb 2009 00:18:17 0000

This show I dont like as much as the original. Alot of the time you watch them saying did you hear that or see that but the camera focuses on them and not what they are seeing. They need more gear especially head cameras and thermal cameras. Dont you think?

have your say below:-

NZ Ghost hunters (2005)

Wed, 2 Dec 2009 23:47:00 0000

This is an old show from the land downunder.. no not Aussie but New Zealand,.. small island under Australia. And yes its named after Dutch explorers, hence alot of the names come from there and England. and some French who visited this land 100s a years ago. But the bulk of the city and place naming is from the local native people who settled here first called the Maoris.

New show just out called Northern-irelands-greatest-haunts

Wed, 2 Dec 2009 16:43:01 0000

Watch some Youtube clip of the show here

I think its a cross between TAPS and paranormal State.. they seem to have a impressive array of new equipment and methods to try to find real evidence of paranormal

however like the most haunted and paranormal state they rely heavy on psychics to tell a story which was

the down fall of the UK most haunted and the much chat on web and video clips exposing the well known ghost show as a fraud.

New Australian Most haunted show downunder style

Wed, 2 Dec 2009 16:26:12 0000

Not seen this show yet but their website looks interesting with some clips and

also DVD is available.

Paranormal State..

Wed, 2 Dec 2009 16:19:38 0000

If not caught this show then try to find it streamed online.. 22 min episodes are very additive and spooky

Sensing Murder: downunder

Wed, 2 Dec 2009 16:15:06 0000

Are Some Psychics real? Well Im not sure but unless the 3 guys used on this New Zealand TV series are cheating and the producers claim not.. It beats me how they can pull full names out of thin air and instruct there driver to actual location of a crime scene? I cant see cold reading happening myself. Not llike other psychic shows. This is good as they test 100s of psychics in AUS and NZ with a known solved case and pick the people that got it right.. which was like 6 out of 300 plus?! rest are scam artists?

The Truth is in Here - UFO hunters in usa episode 8 of series 2 covered some of these sightings in UK.. grab a copy and watch

Wed, 2 Dec 2009 01:01:15 0000

The mystery object was seen from the House of Commons as the number sighted in our skies during 2008 more than doubled.

Is there a way to simulate a direct connection if a program does not offer one?

Mon, 2 Nov 2009 03:21:00 0000

Yes.. and No.. No if the program has no proxy network settings option at all.. Yes... if it has.. then can use a special program that redirects to direction connection or another external/internal proxy

Whats the Best Program to give annonymous chat,IM,browsing?

Thu, 2 Apr 2009 08:20:42 0000

The Short Answer is: -

proxy servers, but as we all know not all of them are secure to use.so the best application I found for this is TOR, for windows and MAC because in how it works. Relaying with the clients opting in to be relays as well hiding your real IP behind the relay hops
