Every bank is offering ATM and almost everybody is using it. But what to do if somebody in isolated ATM force you to withdraw money from ATM? Then... If you are ever forced by thief or someone to take out money from ATM then enter your PIN in reverse order. So if your PIN is 1234 , just enter 4321.

I got a very motivational story from my friend in my mail, I would like to share it with all of you... Motivational Story - The Horse & The Donkey : Once upon a time there were two cart-horses. They worked together for many years, pulling the cart of a peasant. Over the years, they often argued with each other, complaining that the other was not keeping to its side, or was going just a little too quickly or just a little too slow. One day, one of the two horses suddenly died. The remaining horse was very upset about this. It realized that in all the time that they had worked together, it had not once told the other horse how much it valued its company and its faithful help in pulling the cart. Now the chance was gone forever. The horse also reflected on all the squabbles they had had. It suddenly understood that it need not have taken offence as easily as it had done, that it need not have borne as many grudges, that it could have been less arrogant, in short, it realized that it ...

I have learnt a very new trick to view website or blogs having very small fonts. This is very helpful specially for Indic fonts ( Hindi, Malyalam, Telugu, Tamil,Kannad) . Most of the Hindi blogs and sites i have visited have so small fonts that it strain our eyes to read, and people with weak eyesight can hardly read it. To view the site or blog in bigger fonts size, just do the following...Just press and hold Control key (Ctrl) and move mouse wheel (Scroll wheel) to and fro to the monitor to increase or decrease the fonts size. It's really very simple. Try it now... and leave comments whether it's wonderful or not.

Recently my computer was infected with Trojans and i was unable to do my work.  I had to call my vendor to format and install the necessary software's again. Since the problem of Trojan and virus is permanent so instead of calling my vendor i decided to do it myself.  I inserted the Windows XP installer CD and followed step by step instructions and got it done very easily. I have partitioned my Hard disk in three sections so I was not worried about my important data. I formatted only c:/ drive which was effected with Trojan. Then I installed all the drivers and now my system is working fine.  Earlier I thought that installation need special expertise but I found it very easy. Above all I also saved the installation fees which i would have paid to my vendor. So folks its always good to learn things by doing it yourself than relying on someone else except you need special guidance.
