Tom was discussing his wonderful proposal with his friend Sameer. Everything looked great; details were being worked out. They have done all number crunching over investment and profitability; What a perfect plan and opportunity! You guessed it right that, they were talking over some internet based idea (may be another youtube, orkut or facebook).

Mozilla Firefox (abbreviated officially as Fx, but also unofficially as FF) is a web browser descended from the Mozilla Application Suite, managed by the Mozilla Corporation. Firefox had about 15% of the recorded usage share of Web browsers as of January 2008 making Firefox the second-most popular browser in current use worldwide after Internet Explorer.Firefox uses the open-source Gecko layout engine, which implements some current Web standards plus a few features which are intended to anticipate likely additions to the standards.
Firefox includes tabbed browsing, a spell checker, incremental find, live bookmarking, a download manager, and a search system that uses Google. Functions can be added through around 2,000 add-ons created by third party developers;[2] the most popular include NoScript (script blocker), FoxyTunes (controls music players), Adblock Plus (ad blocker), StumbleUpon (website discovery), DownThemAll! (download functions) and Web Developer (web tools).
Firefox runs on various versions of Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and many other Unix-like operating systems. Its current stable release is version 2.0.0.12, released on February 7, 2008. Firefox’s source code is free software, released under a tri-license GPL/LGPL/MPL.
No wonder why you want to use Firefox for your day to day browsing experience. But your network administrator has not given you required rights and you are unable to install this FireFox on your laptop/desktop. Pretty bad, huh!

The script mentioned in my last article works great in SOHO environment where we don’t have many shared network resources.
But it won’t work in a corporate environment where access to any network resources (file-share, printer, portal, etc) is controlled by “Network ID” (typically from Windows or Novell Netware network). This happens because “Local Administrator” are usually not part of network and they are treated as anonymous user.

Are you are normally using non-admin account to work (and browse) on your computer? If yes, following AHK (AutoHotkey) script can be a very handy tool for you.

I was always wondering that why local phone companies are not offering DSL without phone service. Technically they are two different service sharing same media (copper wire) and it should be possible to unbundle them. But phone companies were not doing it until recently when they started losing this business because of VOIP.

CECB or Coupon-Eligible Converter Box is a specification for converter boxes eligible to receive subsidy coupons through the U.S. federally-sponsored DTV Converter Box Coupon Program. (Ref - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CECB)
I still have my old Panasonic TAU (27 inch flat screen tube SDTV) and occasionally turn it on. Thus buying a converter box for less than $10 was pretty exciting and I started browsing https://www.dtv2009.gov/ and other related sites to gather more information

Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:
The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7.
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.
