How to Track Login History in Windows XP, Vista and 7

Have you never thought that some person would have attempt to  login to your PC in your absence, may be you are unaware of it till now and he may be planting some other trick(may be he has already read my last post lolzz) to get success!!!!.
Ok today I am going to tell you how u can track that…it is very simple, you do not need any extra software for it if you have Mr.Gates’s OS(WIN XP.7 OR VISTA)running in your box. By default that facility in disabled but i will show you how to enable it and what info it contains.

So lets start……..
1) First open up RUN and type Gpedit.msc as shown below and hit enter.

2) After that you will see an console window and follow the onscreen information as shown below……….

3) When you reach the 7th step in the above image then double click on it to change its settings as shown below.

In the above image you can see that both the options as marked are disabled
a) So if you want only to log your login success then enable success in the above image.
b) If you want to log login failures then enable failure in the above image.
c) If you want to log both login success and failure attempts then enable both. After selecting your suitable option click ok.
d) Then inorder to test if it works or not,logout from your system and try few wrong passwords and then login again.
e) Now right click on the “My computer”icon on the desktop and navigate to where it is written “Manage”.

f) Now after clicking manage in the above step a new console will open and then follow the steps as illustrated in the image below.

Here you can see there are many success logn attempts but there is one failure login attempt..marked as step 5,so double click on it to see the information it contains.
g) After double clicking on it the image below shows the information in it ..just give it a look...:)

As you can see it contains the time &date, username, reason etc
I hope this will add to your knowledge..and you will be any day helped by this….:)

Advantage of Jailbreaking iPhone

Jailbreaking of iPhone is very popular since Apple has launched iPhone devices, a mass community of iPhone Dev Team is putting their effort in Jailbreaking of iPhone with every new iOS releases by apple. Do you know the advantages of Jailbreaking an iPhone? if not then you must have to read this post and know the advantage of jailbreaking iPhone.


iOS jailbreaking, or simply jailbreaking, is the process of removing the limitations imposed by Apple on devices running on the iOS operating system through use of custom kernels. Such devices include the iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, and Apple TV 2G. Jailbreaking allows users to gain full access (or root access) to the operating system, allowing iOS users to download additional applications, extensions, and themes that are unavailable through the official Apple App Store, via installers such as Cydia. You can refer my post about Jailbreak iPhone 4 on iOS 4.3.3(8J2) using redsn0w_win_0.9.6rc17.
A jailbroken iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad running iOS can still use the App Store, iTunes, and other normal functions, such as making telephone calls. Unlike rooting an Android device, jailbreaking is necessary if the user intends to run software not authorized by Apple.
At its core, jailbreaking an Apple iOS device gives access to its root filesystem, allowing modification and installing third-party software components. This gives the user more control over the device and may enable features that were previously unavailable. In many cases, jailbreaking also voids the device’s warranty.

Advantage of Jailbreaking iPhone

  1.  
    1. Under the DMCA of 2010, jailbreaking Apple iDevices is legal in the United States, although Apple has announced that the practice “can void the warranty.
    2. Cracked iPhone Games and Apps Installation – Jailbreaking is necessary if the user intends to run software not authorized by Apple.
    3. Gain deeper customization of device (e.g. theming, redesigned user interfaces and customize lock screens.)
    4. Jailbreaking also allows users to use paid apps from the App Store for free.
    5. It’s Fast and Easy – One of the best thing about jailbreaking an iPhone is you can easily jailbreak it within few minutes.
    6. Video chat over 3G Network – FaceTime video chat is a new feature of the iPhone 4, but it only works over a Wi-Fi network, which may be difficult to find in many situations. Jailbreaking the iPhone 4 allows for FaceTime video chat over a 3G connection.

Android 4.0 to be open source in 'coming weeks'

Google unveils plans to make its upcoming mobile operating system release open source and available when Samsung ships the Galaxy Nexus.
HONG KONG--Google has confirmed that its latest version of the Android mobile operating system (OS), also dubbed Ice Cream Sandwich, will be made open source once the Galaxy Nexus ships.

Speaking at the AsiaD conference held here Wednesday, Andy Rubin, the company's senior vice president of mobile, unveiled the newest iteration of the platform, Android 4.0, which will soon ship with other smartphones and tablets.

Rubin said Ice Cream Sandwich will be open source "in a couple of weeks" when Samsung's Galaxy Nexus ships and manufacturers will be free to push the update to their current range of devices. Going open source means manufacturers will be able to put Android 4.0 into their own devices and cut their own ROMs for existing products.

Google previously said the Nexus S would receive the Android 4.0 update, but had not provided a timeframe for this. Honeycomb, the current tablet-only Android OS, remains closed-source and codes available only to select partners and manufacturers.

Both Android 4.0 and the Galaxy Nexus smartphone are expected to ship this November.

In a statement issued Thursday, Ovum's analyst Nick Dillon said the new OS release brings together the phone and tablet strands of Android into a single version, which is the "more important aspect of the update". This is because Android tablets' sales have so far been limited and one of the reasons for this is the relatively small number of apps available for these devices, Dillon said.

"By creating a single version of Android, Google is making it easier for developers to modify their apps and take advantage of the larger screens of tablets, which should stimulate the creation of apps designed for Android tablets," Dillon explained.

Motorola launches world's 'thinnest' smartphone


Washington, Oct 19 (IANS) Motorola has launched what it called an 'impossibly thin' Droid RAZR phone with a stainless-steel core, a Gorilla Glass screen and a nanotechnology Splash-guard that protects even the electrical boards inside.
Motorola Mobility's Indian-American president Sanjay Jha declared the 7.1mm-thick mobile device the world's thinnest smartphone. Not only is it thinner than other 3G phones, it will run on Verizon Wireless's 4G LTE network in the US.
In other countries, the phone will be called the Motorola RAZR. The details on international carriers and network compatibility will come soon.
With a 4.3-inch screen with qHD resolution, it will have higher contrast and richer color than iPhone 4S, said Jha.
Not only will it have an incredibly high-res screen and a powerful 1.2GHz dual-core processor, but it will be the 'first device to download HD movies from Netflix'.
On the software front, it runs Android 2.3.5, aka Gingerbread. It will not launch with Ice Cream Sandwich, the next version of the Android OS.
The Droid RAZR supports the webtop interface, like the Droid Bionic, Atrix, Photon and others, so one can dock it to one of Motorola's lapdocks, in order to run full Firefox browser.
The RAZR also has MotoCast, a syncing system that Jha called the phone's most important feature.
'You can stream content from your computer straight to your pocket (or purse) so your personal content is always within reach,' according to a Motorola press release.
'And, because you don't have to upload to a third-party site, you're saving time while gaining peace of mind. That's right - your files stay safe because they stay with you.'

Smartphones increasing global cyber crime


London, Oct 17 (ANI): Cyber security experts have warned that the world is facing a wave of cyber crime, and blame it on our newly found addiction to the smartphone for the cause.

"This is a fully fledged computer that's sitting in your pocket," Sky news quoted Henry Harrison, from UK cyber security experts Detica, as saying.
The flaw in the smartphone is that it is too useful and too user friendly - for users who trade convenience for security.
They collect our emails, store our bank details, we tweet and use Facebook on them. They are our bank vault, our confidante, and our guide.
Criminals use Wi-Fi connection to harvest passwords and other sensitive data from smartphones or computers - often giving their Wi-Fi hotspots fake names familiar to punters at cafes and in airports.
Many smartphones are set up to automatically leap on to available Wi-Fi hotspots and start downloading emails.
Forty per cent of mobiles sold this year have been smartphones - and this has been a bumper year for malware developers who have focussed their attention on smartphones.
Those running Google's Android system have been especially targeted.
Bitdefender's Catalin Cosoi said: "We have investigated applications for Android devices and basically, based on our statistics, we've seen a 2,000 percent increase of malicious applications compared to the last year...Our prediction is that in the following 6 months, we will have a 6,000per cent increase in malicious applications."
Smartphones are becoming the gateway for cyber criminals and cyber spies into sensitive personal data, industrial and state secrets.
"Once you have a smartphone, you probably can't go back to an older version of a phone now that you have access to a computer, social media, emails, pictures and so on. You sort of get addicted, so smartphones are becoming very important," Cosoi added.
"On the other hand, it's very, very easy to create malware for smartphones.
"Sometimes you can take a malicious part from one application and insert it into another and start propagating an application on the web. So smartphones are increasing and also, it's very easy to create malicious applications for smartphones," he added.(ANI)

    MICROSOFT TOUCH MOUSE

    Microsoft Hardware has designed a new computer mouse called Microsoft Touch Mousewhich adds touch features on top of the usual mouse functionality.
    The mouse looks like any other mouse albeit with a weird form factor on first glance. It offers no mouse buttons in the traditional sense of the word, only a touch interface that makes up the upper half of the mouse body.
    The touch interface reacts to touches. It is possible for instance to left-click and right-click by taping the finger in the right locations on the mouse surface. Microsoft states that it can do everything that a normal mouse can do which would indicate that there should be an emulation of a middle-mouse button as well. That’s however not confirmed and not shown in any of the videos.
    It uses BlueTrack Technology to work on virtually any surface without difficulties. The USB Nano transceiver can pick up signals at a 30-foot range.

    here is the video showing how it works
