Password Protecting Zip Files

Recently read a post titled Microsoft Private Folder 1.0 by Vadivel ...

After reading that was searching some thing regarding password protection and I came to know about how to password protect compressed files...

Just right click the folder which u like to compress and click Sent To - > compressed zip folder. Then open the compressed file and click on File - > Add Password and set your password.. from then u need to give the password to extract the compressed files...

till a couple if mts back i dont know that such an option exists... I hope that some of u where not aware of this option earlier ;)

Petrol Price Hike…

Nowadays the petrol price hike is spoken as a big issue. Many are against the price hike. But I feel that the price of the petrol must be still increased in our country… The profit which the government gets because of the petrol price hike must be used in some useful ways.

In our country majority of our import bill is because of Oil. If we reduce our oil imports by a small percentages then that small percentage of the money which the government saves can be used for many things, and in order to reduce the imports the usage must be less... and to reduce the usage the price of the oil must be more...

The first thing which will come to our mind when oil price raise is fuel for our vehicle... but if we are those who use public mode of transport we wont talk abt the fuel price hike. For example say u travel by MTC bus, the increase in the petrol price will be shared be all those who use that MTC bus right? The government must gradually improve the public transport facility…If the public transport facility is good then with the increase in petrol price all people will gradually shift to public transport... because of this apart from reducing the import bill the government will also get revenue from the transport service… doesn’t that sound good?

But on the other side the price hike has its own disadvantages too…The transportation charges of vegetables food items and other things will also go up. This will result in raise in price of vegetables and other essential items… And with the raise of petrol price the automobile industry will also be affected and this may slow down our economy... and this will affect many sectors directly or indirectly with these things we can argue that the petrol price hike is bad...

what ever it might be Oil is a non renewable source of energy. More over burning the oil is going to pollute our environment and will make the world a bad place to live for us and also for our future generations... so I feel good that the price hike reduces the consumption of oil atleast by a small percentage :)

In our socitey we can’t blame others…

Yesterday I had a chance of going to gold merchants shop… it was one of the leading shops in the city… I had been to the anna nagar branch… the shop was marvellous, the lighting’s where pakka and all the sales persons where neatly dressed and they spoke good English too… I was surprised by the way the sales persons handled the customers. Every thing was prefect in that shop… finally when the purchase was made the sales person gives a rough estimate for the items which we have ordered for and he says another word… “go to the counter they will reduce the rates” and in the counter they give a discount of Rs 50 and in addition to that he cuts off the sales tax… i.e he gives the gold without any bills… in a matter of 5mts the shop keeper made sales for up to Rs 50000 and none of the customers received bills for the purchase… they were happy to get the items without bills (i.e without paying tax) and in few mts the shop keeper earned rs 50000 (black money)… this happened in a shop for which majority of the customers were educated people… and this doesn’t stop with jewellery shop… it does exist in all mobile phone shops, medical shop and also in provisional stores…

The government is loosing a huge income because of this practice. And the educated people fit only to see movies like mudhalvan and anniyan and say thing should be like this, our politicians and worst, they r not running the government well blab blab blab….but they will not accept the mistakes which they are doing…. If the educated people are like this then what will uneducated people do… uneducated will smoke in trains and busses and will rob and will do all sort of nonsense…


Finally whom can we blame????

before blaming others we shoud be clear on our part( reform and transform)

chumma from my new work place

one should have a good frnds set around them... if we consider some as true frnd we will be able to express our emotions completely to them...if we r happy we will be able to laugh with them ... if we r angry v will yell at them and if we r sad we will be able to cry to them and so on... all this will happen only wiht whom v consider as frnds(a big good word which means some thing gr8 for me)...

I experienced all the emotions in my old work place and the last one [I was so sad and missed all my frnds... nearly cried in front of all :( ] when i came to my new work place... now i am in my new work place with sweet (really sweet) memories... Experiencing how it will be when v r away from our close fnrds...

and just now recieved a mail stating that my VOIP phone is configured... so going to be in touch wiht my all frnds :)

MEDIA… how powerful is it!!!!!!!!!...

I am really amazed seeing the power of the media… They have a gr8 power with them… and they influence people like any thing… after seeing the movies like “RANG DE BASANTI” and “yuva” many would have started thinking of present politics(I thought so)… and after seeing film like “kakka kakka” some thoughts abt the police department will be going on in all our minds… Those kind of films comes to the theatre only once in a blue moon…

But majority of the movies are misleading people… say if we see a violent movie some behave in a rough manner at least for a couple of minutes after coming out of the theatre and some will turn violent after seeing such movies… Now lets take Actor Vijay... in all his films he speaks about love and love marriage… seeing his films(also other actors’ films) many will think that love marriage is the best and some start loving too… but Vijay ended up in an arranged marriage (he didn’t do what he made others do)… here I don’t say love marriage is wrong… but the thing is that, to a certain extent media is influencing people to love (but actually it is lust)… this is one small example of media influencing people…

And coming to the TV Channels… NDTV, CNN IBN and other channels are doing a fantastic job… But, now I am totally irritated with a couple of channels in south India… in a couple of days time the elections are going to take place… Now these news channels are 101% biased and they spend time in finding fault in others… they fight with each other and at the end of the day the none of the citizens know what the truth is… but all of us r influenced by these channels for voting…. It’s the same news channel which gave information abt the earth quakes and tsunami and so on… These news channels have a gr8 power of making true as false and false as true…

And even in magazines there are pakka magazines, worst magazines, biased magazines etc…Its up to us to choose the good one… how to choose the good one or unbiased one… ???????????(a big question mark)

Media is the one which is going to play a major role in India’s future… lets hope that it takes us in a good path…

Friends

Friend ship is such a gr8 relation in this word… its one relation which will make u forget all ur sorrows and will take u to new heights… a frnd will be one with whom u can share anything which u cant share with ur parents or relatives…

The reason y many of us had a happy life in our childhood is that, when we feel like laughing we laugh out loudly and when we feel like crying we cry out loudly… i.e. we don’t control our emotions in our child hood… but as we grow up we control our emotions because of our surroundings so we wont be mentally fit always…

If u have lots and lots of frnds around u, u will have more people to share ur emotions and ur life will be mentally very good since u have exposed ur emotions (I feel that I am lucky in having many frnds)

At the same time one should see to that the expectations doesn’t grow along with frndship… if it grows then having frnds will be of no use… and we should also know our limits to our frnds... if we exceed our limits we might receive harsh replies from our dear frnds which will make u feel more worse…

Suddenly felt like sharing this… so bloged it :)
