Be Very Careful with this CTRL+C and CTRL+V

We all copy various data by using ctrl+c/Copy for pasting elsewhere.
This copied data is stored on clipboard and is accessible over the net by a combination of javascripts and ASP.

Just try this:

1) Copy any text by ctrl+c

2) Click the Link: http://www.friendlycanadian.com/appl.../clipboard.htm

3) You will see the text you copied on the Screen which was
accessed by this web page.

Moral:
Do not keep sensitive data (like passwords, creditcard numbers, PIN etc.) in the clipboard while surfing the web. It is extremely easy to extract the text stored in the clipboard to steal your sensitive information. If sufficient data is stored by mistake it would give away confidential and important information without you knowing about it.

To Avoid This
To avoid this, follow these steps:

1. Go to internet options->security

2. Press custom level

3. In the security settings, select disable under Allow paste operations via script.

Now the contents of your clipboard are safe.

Pass this information on to create an awareness of the same.

Differences of GSM, GPRS, UMTS and HSDPA

1. GSM: 2G Europian standard and the first digital mobile system. It offers only
circuit-switched traffic (i.e voice calls,
SMS...etc) and data transfer at very low
bitrates 9.6kbps.

2. GPRS: also reffered to as phase 2+. It offered packet-switched traffic with
new network components integrated
over the existant GSM core network.
This allowed data bitrates to increase
to 171kbps. It is also considered as the
first step towards 3G networks.

3. EDGE: It was made to cover the delay of delivery of 3G/UMTS network.
It supported data rates upto 384kbps.

4. UMTS: the first 3G Europian standard network. It is the optimal solution for
GSM operators to support 3G services.
The Air interface technique used for
this network is WCDMA. This technique
allowed data rates to reach 2Mbps.

5. HSDPA: It is actually a software upgrade to the UMTS network using
the same air interface technique used
in UMTS (WCDMA) and supporting data
rates upto 10Mbps.

Q: Why is my internet connection intermittent despite full HSDPA signal?
A: The service that you receive on your connection depends partly on how
busy the network is. Voice and text
users take priority over dongle (data)
users, so when the network is
particularly busy, data speeds may be
slow even though signal strength is high. Conversely when the network is
not busy, you may get fast data speeds
although you barely have a signal.
Unfortunately you can only influence
this aspect of service by connecting at
less sociable hours.

Ways to protect bad effects of your phone

Today's post is about protecting against electromagnetic waves of your mobile. In one day, If you are talking with mobile phone more than 15 minutes, you may be in risk.

 We can minimize bad effects with a few tips

In our life, mobile phones has an important place. But we have to minimize the electromagnetic absorption.

Here are some tips;

1- Don't touch the antenna while talking with your mobile phone. If you close the antenna, phone will circulate more electromagnetic wave. Figure 2 is showing the correct position.

2- If there is low signal on your place, Dont talk with your mobile. If your call is urgent, you have to talk max. 10-20 seconds.. In low signal, Your phone is circulating 6-7 times powerful electromagnetic wave.

3- Try to leave a distance between your phone and your ear.

4- Learn your SAR value. If it's highter than 2.0W/Kg, change your phone immediately (for ex: Nokia N95 is 0.59W/Kg) Nokia has a list of SAR values. You can learn your value in this page (There is no Nokia Phone higher than 2.0W/Kg)

5- If you have to talk with your mobile phone more than 1-2 hours, I hardly recommend you to use headsets. That will definitely protect you against electromagnetic waves (I âm always using headphones when talking for hours..)
Hope u like these tips!!

ENJOY!!
