Insert HTML Code to Blogger Posting

Onetime i want to share my trick in my blog, and then i wrote some post....but when i publish it, i really shocked...the trick with consist of HTML code doesn't appear . What wrong with my post?.. I really confused. I search this problem in search engine,until i found the answer. The answer is if we want to insert a HTML code, it must be coverted the HTML characteristic with symbol/notation. Or we can use another trick. we can post a HTML code using by a more trick.
1. We can use form text area.

If we use this way, the result will be like this

2. second way to post HTML code is change a character in that code with symbol/notation.

But how if the code is to much??? You can use this site to help change characteristic into notation. (http://centricle.com/tools/html-entities/). The way is so simple. Put your code and then click uncode.

3.Third way, we can use image software (paint, photoshop, or another else).
For me i usually used "PAINT", it so simple. For the first we write that code in Word, excel, or another relevant software, and then we change to image file. How to make it to be image file? just hit "ALT + PrtScSysRq" and paste in "PAINT" software. And then crop which area do you want. Save the file, and then upload.

Let Users Install Software Without Giving Them Administrator Rights

I recently discovered a new way to remotely install software. When users require a program to be installed on their computers, they download the software to their desktops. I then use Sysinternals’ PsExec utility (http://www.sysinternals.com/utilities/psexec.html) to remotely start the execution of the program, but I start the program interactively so that the user who is logged on to the target computer can complete the installation.

This approach is advantageous because you don’t need to give Administrator privileges to users who need to install software on their computers. When you run PsExec without a username and password, the remote process runs under the same account from which you execute PsExec (in this case, the Administrator account). Because the remote process is impersonating that account, the user won’t have access to network resources on the remote system. (When you specify a username and password, the remote process executes in the specified account and will have access to any network resources that the account has access to.) Using PsExec is handier than using the built-in RunAs command because you don’t need to be physically sitting at a user’s computer.

To use PsExec to remotely install software, you need to start the installer.exe program with the following command:
Psexec -i \\targetcomputer
\\targetcomputer\c$\
documents and settings\
username\desktop\installer.exe
The -i option starts installer.exe interactively for the user currently logged on to the machine specified by targetcomputer.

Remove or Rename the Recycle Bin from the Desktop

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ Microsoft/ Windows/CurrentVersion/explorer/ Desktop/NameSpace

Rename Recycle Bin:
• HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/CLSID/ {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
• It is very difficult to find the code, right?
No problem, u just copy the code and click to select edit>find; from Menu bar and past to findand by right click on "Recycle Bin"and select modify option for change the name to whatever you want (don't type any quotes).
Eg:- find this code - 645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E
At last restart the computer..

Hide your files in jpeg format

Well, did you know you could hide your files in a JPEG file? For this, you will
only need to download WinRAR. You just need to have a little knowledge about Command Prompt and have WinRAR installed.
1.Gather all the files that you wish to hide in a folder anywhere in your PC (make it in C:\hidden - RECOMMENDED).
2. Now, add those files in a RAR archive (e.g. secret.rar). This file should also be in the same directory (C:\hidden).
3. Now, look for a simple JPEG picture file (e.g. logo.jpg). Copy/Paste that file also in C:\hidden.
4. Now, open Command Prompt (Go to Run and type ‘cmd‘). Make your working directory C:\hidden.
5. Now type: “COPY /b logo.jpg + secret.rar output.jpg” (without quotes) - Now, logo.jpg is the picture you want to show, secret.rar is the file to be hidden, and output.jpg is the file which contains both.
6. Now, after you have done this, you will see a file output.jpg in C:\hidden.
Open it (double-click) and it will show the picture you wanted to show. Now try opening the same file with WinRAR, it will show the hidden archive .
