post11: URL (YFH)

Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a subset of the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that specifies where an identified resource is available and the mechanism for retrieving it. In popular usage and in many technical documents and verbal discussions it is often incorrectly used as a synonym for URI. In popular language, a URI is also referred to as a Web address.


URLs of some of the most useful, user-friendly web-sites are given here..

post2: hidden files disabled permanently (YFH)

ohh.. so, you hide your files on your comp. so that no one can view them:
(any window) > Tools > Folder Options > View (tab) >
  • (check) "Show hidden files/folders"
if you still can't view them.. try this option below the above one..
  • (uncheck) "Hide system files/folders (Recommended)"
-------------------------------
but what if some malwares hide them from you completely..
you proceed thru the afore-said methods.. but stuill can't..
--> the problem is caused due to amvo virus.
-------------------------------
the ALTERNATIVE is:
1. Search (F3) > More Advanced Options > (check) Search hidden File and folders)
2. SEARCH for *.* in the parent folder of the hidden files/folder.


-------------------------------
the SOLUTION is uploaded here..
2. (this a .VBS vbscript file) you just have to extract,
3. double-click the file & follow the instructions..
