I reckon this thing will make your television stand hold a label reading ‘Jackass’. This one is purely for Nintendo Wii. Licensed by Nintendo, this Wii stand can accomodate all your Wii franchise including Wii titles. According to jonas_mofos’s shop, Nintendo has stopped producing these stands and are now a rarity. Made of ‘Shiny white wood’, this stand requires no assembly and is hassle free.

Being 36 inches taller, it makes your living room more attractive as its gloss and white wood. Already at the time of looking at this product, there were 6 bidders and for a starting price of $51 (excluding shipment charges) this is a real bargain if the love of your life is Wii. Why don’t we just say its sugar, spice and everything ‘Wiis’.

Remember the chrome moddings for the Xbox 360? It made some people ( I know) envy the 360 for its easy ability to get modded. Cheer up PS3 owners, now you can add some juice to your playstation 3 with this baby. If you are simply bored of seeing the same color on your PS3 and jealous of your friend’s color modded 360, you can definitely go for this.

Recently i encountered a strange thing! my friend’s Rapidshare account got phished but fortunately he was able to change his account password in time and prevent further misuse.

It’s simply weired that in Windows Vista won’t let you uninstall Windows Defender which is kinda ultimate useless application of all time. :D Strangely it does allow uninstalling in Windows XP.

Now that Windows Vista installs Windows Defender by default, many people are looking for ways to disable, uninstall or remove it from system so that they could install any other anti-spyware programs. Besides using some precious cpu and memory resources Windows Defender as I already told you is a lameware, also because if you use something like Kaspersky Internet Security its almost impossible for spywares to get inside.

Recently i came across some crappy virus that infects all executable files in my flash drive, then creates a hidden autorun.inf file at the root of the pendrive. Each time I hook the USB drive to my friends PC thus getting infected.

Its fairly easy to stop Windows from executing instructions found in autorun.inf using registry tricks. But seriously many people do love the autorun feature.

Well we can still let Windows continue processing autorun.inf file for CD or DVD and also protect the computer from USB flash drive autorun.inf using a USB firewall. Here is a USB firewall software that blocks unwanted stuffs from your USB drive.

One of the most popular Linux Distros Ubuntu, gets the latest release numbered 8.04 and code named “Hardy Heron,” available for download and upgrading. Lots of cool features like, revamped user interface, new version of Xorg , hot-switching of display, enhanced default photo manager, better default video player and tons of other great features.

Ubuntu 8.04 is a free download for any system with a 32- or 64-bit Intel or AMD processor, but you can also request to have free CDs shipped to you. Only thing I have to do, is wait for a long time for the download to complete. For those who have ultra fast connections, grab the download link below.

Folks here at TT really love antivirus especially if they are free! Recently many security companies were giving away free license versions or their flagship antivirus applications. Yet still many people love AVG Antivrus free edition to the core. It was 2 months ago Grisoft updated there free antivirus to version 7.5 and today they finally kick start with the AVG Anti-Virus Free 8.0.

The new version is a must have because of the new anti-virus and anti-spyware engine. It surely isn’t a replacement for my favorite Kaseprsky Internet Security, still it gives basic protection against viruses and spyware.
