Ways to Speed Up Your Computer Using Regedit

Speed up your Windows 7 computer by using regedit to tweak some of the operating system's default settings. In an attempt to make Windows 7 more intuitive, programmers at Microsoft set up numerous non-critical and unnecessary popups and conditions, such as balloon notifications, menu delays and hung application processing. These can all be disabled through regedit.

Disable Notification Balloons

• Notification balloons pop up on your desktop any time something non-critical happens within an application. To disable these notifications, open regedit and navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER," "Software," "Microsoft," "Windows," "CurrentVersion," "Explorer" and "Advanced." Right-click the right pane, open the "New" sub-menu and click on "DWORD." Type "EnableBalloonTips" into the box and press enter. Double-click "EnableBalloonTips," type 0 into the box and click "OK."

Speed Up Hung Apps

• Every now and again, an application malfunctions and becomes "hung." When this occurs, Windows 7 takes a moment to analyze the application before it purges it from memory. Adjusting the time the Windows operating system takes to complete this purge can significantly decrease the amount of time the system takes to recover from a hung application. Adjust this time by opening regedit; navigating to "KEY_CURRENT_USER," "Control Panel" and "Desktop;" double-clicking "HungAppTimeout" from the right pane; changing its value to 1000 and clicking "OK."

Disable Paging Executive

• Core system files known as "kernel-mode drivers" sit on your local disk, but your operating system would run faster if they were loaded into memory. This can be accomplished by disabling paging executive. Open regedit, navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE," "SYSTEM," "CurrentControlSet," "Control," "Session Manager" and "Memory Management." Double-click "DisablePaging Executive" from the right pane, adjust its value to 1 and click "OK."

Adjust Start Menu Delay

• A slight delay occurs every time you access a cascading menu within the "Start" menu. You can adjust this delay by adjusting the "MenuShowDelay" property in Windows 7. Open regedit, navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER," "Control Panel" and "Desktop." Double-click "MenuShowDelay," change its value to 100 and click "OK." Instead of having to deal with delays, you will now encounter near-instant menu appearances.

Virtual DJ Fully Cracked

Digital deejaying has skyrocketed in popularity over the past five years and it's no wonder why. Compared to a full vinyl setup with all the hardware and physical media it requires, an MP3-based mixing station is extremely simple and cheap. There's even free software to get you started, and one of the most popular programs available is Virtual DJ.

Virtual DJ is often packaged with USB-based hardware mixing consoles from the likes of Hercules and Numark, and, in fact, if you really want to delve into the full array of features, such devices are going to be a necessity--and they'll require a $99 license fee to upgrade to the Pro version of the software. That said, you can download the app for free by itself and make very basic mixes and playlists.

While the program isn't specifically geared at newbies, it is intuitive enough for a musically inclined individual to use right off the bat. Once installed, Virtual DJ automatically populates a folder tree in the bottom left corner where you can easily access your music collection. The bottom middle serves as a tabbed, multifunction area where you can browse tracks, sample music bites, add effects, and make recordings.

The top of the window is dominated by two digital turntables, which are distinguished by color: blue on the left and red on the right. Each one has the ability to cue, loop, adjust pitch, scratch, and shift (among other features). In the middle is the mixing console, where you can adjust the gain and master volume, as well as transition between the two tracks. Once the songs have been dragged and dropped into the console, a bar along the top displays the sound waves of each to help with visual mixing. There's also a video input option that lets you create montages to the music.

The stylish interface and high number of features score points, but learning how to use the program is a hit-or-miss proposition. To be perfectly honest, using it without mixing hardware (that is, just a mouse and keyboard) is a challenge, and not one we enjoyed, so we recommend hooking up a compatible USB controller. Also worth a look: the thorough online user guide.

Virtual DJ is free, fully featured, and well-laid-out. It's a useful option both for aspiring mixers and newbies.

Hackers launch a DDOS attack on the website of one of Israel’s oldest hospitals

According to Monsters and Critics, despite pro-Israeli hacker Hannibal’s call for a ceasefire of sorts on January 21, yet another cyberattack has been launched on an Israeli website.

This time, hackers took down the website of Israel’s largest hospital, Sheba Medical Center, but it’s unclear which group is responsible for the attack.

The hacker who dealt the first blow, so to speak, 0xOmar has fallen silent on his Pastebin account, claiming that the site had been deleting his posts, while over a week ago, it was reported that he had been publishing at least 200 credit card numbers per day.

With this latest attack, a DDOS attack launched in the middle of the night took the site down for hours, and at the time of writing, was still unavailable, as can be seen by the screenshot from Down For Everyone.

While Monsters and Critics report that technicians are trying to identify the source of the attacks, no one has publicly claimed responsibility, which veers away from the constant posturing we’ve seen from hackers on both sides in the past month.

In fact, when 0xOmar, joined by a team of hackers that go by the name Nightmare, took down the websites of the Israeli airline El Al and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, they not only claimed responsibility, but had also warned of the attack first. There appear to be no similar reports this time around, so it’s possible that yet another hacker may have become involved in the ongoing exchange of cyber blows, which began on January 3rd.

On January 19, the IDF Team, a group of Israeli hackers who claimed responsibility for attacks on the websites of the UAE and Saudi Stock Exchange also launched DDOS attacks on the sites of the Arab Bank of Palestine and the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates.

It’s becoming all too easy to lose track of the many attacks taking place on either side, and if you want to catch up with the story, blow by blow, since it began, be sure to check out our timeline of events up until January 18.
