iCar.

Needless to say, your brain flashes something which is related to iPod as soon as you read the title. iCar will be the future product of Apple Inc. and Volkswagen AG. The CEO of Apple and Volkswagen’s chef met in California days ago tossing around the plan for future iCar according to the news. I’m always inspired by the design of Apple’s products and surely iCare is no exception.

iPhone is unlocked by a teen.

A teen who is a student from Rochester Institute of Technology finally unlocked iPhone after taking 500 hrs. The steps required to unload the phone are posted on his blog. iPhone is currently sold only in US and its current service provider is AT&T. So iPhone can’t be used with other service providers like T-Mobile. The teen juz unlocked this restriction. Good work!

Scan virus using multiple antivirus software.

The title looks peculiar coz if you have two or more antivirus programs installed on your PC, they will conflict with each other. It’s recommended to use only one antivirus program of your choice. What if you are suspicious of a file which you thing may be infected though your antivirus program said ‘not infected’. Online virus scans are one option but if you want to make as sure as nearly 100% of suspicious file, there is the best option you can choose. More than two dozens of antivirus engines will scan the files you submitted through this site. You don’t need to worry if those antivirus engines are up-to-date or not. Those latest antivirus programs will scan the file and present you with detailed results from each antivirus program. It’s really cool!

Safari theme for Firefox.

Among browsers, I like Mozilla Firefox the most and when it comes to user interface, I like Safari’s elegant interface. Now the dream came through thanks to open source developers who created Safari theme inside Firefox. You can change the theme easily – go to here, download it, go to Tools/Add-ons/Themes to choose the theme and restart Firefox. Safari interface will show up inside Firefox. Enjoy it!

Revo Uninstaller.

This program is the best replacement for Window’s ‘add and remove’ program which can be accessed from Control Panel. I have reasons why I used the world ‘replacement’. The program lists up all programs installed along with their detail info on where they are installed on your hard-drive, their related registry info and Update/Help/About links if they exist. It also lets use search the programs on Google. All these features can be accessed by right-clicking any program of your choice. Another good feature I like is ‘Hunter Mode’ which lets you point any program icon on desktop and uninstall it easily. I’d like to call it ‘uninstall pointer’. Furthermore, there are a handful of tools for Windows. AutoRun Manager lets you manage the programs from Windows startup. Windows Tools gives you handful tools for better system performance. Junck File Cleaner allows you to get rid of unnecessary files from your PC giving you not only some more space but also faster performance.

Shortcut Man.

I once wrote about LaunchOnFly free-ware. Shortcut Man is similar to that free-ware but it sits in the system tray once installed. You can add frequently used software by juz dragging the shortcuts into Shortcut Man’s window. I like this feature. Make your messy desktop clean!
