As you would know I’m the owner, webmaster and everything of www.thinktechno.com. Most of my free time goes to optimizing the website and other things. Optimizing in a sense I try to fix the problems associated with fastening, code cleaning, and checking the website with multiple website.

Problem is that almost all the versions of Firefox have no problems rendering my website, even opera does exceptionally well. But Internet explorer always gives me headaches. A minor stylesheet changes drops columns, sidebars, and do all sorts of crazy things. Add to that windows won’t allow installing multiple versions of IE.

If you are already using Google or Yahoo Toolbar you probably won’t want to use the built-in search box in Internet Explorer 7. There’s a quick registry fix that you can do to enable / disable this.

Open up Notepad and copy the following and save it to something “IE7_NoSearchBar.reg”. Then merge it into the registry by double clicking it.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Infodelivery\Restrictions]
“NoSearchBox”=dword:00000001

To disable copy this following code and save. After that merge it to the registry.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Infodelivery\Restrictions]
“NoSearchBox”=dword:00000000

 Most of us are accustomed to using Internet Explorer and i’m sure you’d probably fed up of the download restrictions of only 2 files from the same website.

With a simple registry hack you can supercharge IE to download more then 2 files.

Manual Registry Hack

Open regedit.exe through the start menu search or run box, and then browse down to the following key:

Apart from the cool features that comes with Vista… even the scary ones. Vista is a really great looking OS, especially the taskbar thumbnail previews. Now what about the same feature for your Firefox’s tabs…la Opera tab thumbnails.

Well you could use the Tab Scope extension for a similar feature, with fully customizable options. Whenever you hover your mouse over a tab, a popup thumbnail preview of the page you’re browsing. One interesting thing is that, you could actually inside the thumbnail itself, all the links are clickable besides you can even use the scroll button inside the thumbnail.

Nowadays we are accustomed to having different profiles or accounts for various services ranging from email, social networks, community websites. But you can only login to one account at a time for a specific service due to cookies.

Today I’m gono show you a Firefox plugin that lets you login to any number of accounts of the same service. CookiePie is a Firefox add-on that manages cookies on a per tab basis, letting you use multiple accounts from just a single browser.

You would have already came across Remember the Milk, an online task management software. Guess what ever since I have started using Remember the Milk…. in one word its “priceless”.

I’m pretty sure you are loving this, Remember the Milk directly integrates into Gmail, so you can manage your tasks right besides your emails. It full integrates with your contacts , and calendar contacts, and Google Calendar events).

With all the daily surfing that i go through, i find it really frustrating to go trough endless scores of windows. This mostly happened due to click happy fingers clicking on just about any link it comes across. Hey what can i do if someone disguise a MLM or porn site with a what it seems to be a shopping or informative link.
