N-Krypt Email Solutions



Had problem in email,lets see this.Email encryption has really made a splash as of late thanks to US president Barack Obama being allowed to keep his trusty sidekick better know as a Blackberry. N-Krypt email solutions which we have featured here in the past lets you send email using banking level encryption while allowing you to track the progress of the email. Over the last couple weeks I tested it out on 4 different environments, Outlook, web mail, Blackberry and the iPhone. I have to say the email service is rock solid, works as promised and is truly uber cool. The screencast below features the highlights of N-Krypt email solutions.

N-Krypt using Outlook
Using N-Krypt with Outlook is seamless. In fact, In Outlook the N-Krypt email solutions feels right at home. It was ultra easy to use. Just download and add the toolbar and you will be up and running in no time. It has a simple to use UI and it becomes a natural extension of Outlook . Before composing an email it will ask if you wish to compose the email using basic services (no encryption or tracking info) or using the N-Krypt (full encryption and tracking). After selecting the N-Krypt services, click which settings you would like to track, just compose an email like normal and hit send. Now sit back and track the progress of your email. The recipient will receive an email with a link asking them to join the private email network. Once that process is done, all the tracking info is available.

XP Ninja: Checking Your Network IP and Changing It




Well its so long time since my last post.OK,If you are setting up a secondary system, then it is great to have it functioning as a part of the network. A properly configured network will allow you to get so much more from your system and will allow all connected systems to better function together. Unfortunately, networking can be a tricky process, but there are a couple of things that can make your life a little easier.

After the jump, find out how to set and check your XP system’s IP.
Now, if you are a total n00b, don’t make the mistake that some people do and assume that your IP on the Internet and the IP of your computer on your network are one and the same, they are not. While they use a similar format, they are two separate addresses. When it comes to your local network, your Internet address is irrelevant.

How to check your network IP
Checking your local IP is a very simple process.
Click on Start and then click Run. Type cmd and hit Enter, this will bring up the command prompt. In the command prompt, type ipconfig, and hit Enter. You will see the IP address of your computer. If you need more information type: ipconfig /all and hit Enter.

How to set your network IP
In your Control Panel open Network Connections. Right click Local Area Connection and click Properties. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties. From here you will be able to set up your IP.

You will see two radio buttons, your system is likely to be set to Obtain an IP address automatically. Change it to Use the following IP address.

There are three settings that must be configured, these are IP address, Subnet Mask and Default gateway. When manually setting network IP fails, it is generally because the last two settings were overlooked.

Subnet Mask should invariably be: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway is the IP address of your router, generally: 192.168.1.1

Now for choosing your own IP there are a few rules. An IP address is comprised of four sets of numbers, each can number from 0-255. When it comes to private networks, however, there are some limitations. You can assign any IP within the following three ranges:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255

I like to keep things simple so I tend to work with the 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 range, you have to be a little careful, as this is the range that IP addresses are normally assigned in, but if you change things up from the norm a little bit, you can pick an address that is easy to remember. Changing the third set of digits will ensure that your settings are outside of the automatic range. Start from 192.168.255.1 and work your way up with other systems.

Next, try to connect to the Internet. If it doesn’t check the other settings or revert back to the automatic setting. [Home-network-help]

App Launcher v3



Ok,this is gadget for computers.Think of this gadget as a Quick Launch toolbar for people who have trouble hitting those tiny icons on the Windows toolbar. The interface for adding new shortcuts is a little on the wonky side, but once you figure it out you’ll be able to quickly and easilybuild a custom collection of icons to launch favorite programs (and open favorite folders and drives or run scripts or batch commands as well.

It supports several background colors and also allows you to group icons using divider lines.

USB Microscope: zoom in on your desk dustmites


Well,you know microscope right?so i doesnt have to explen about it anymore,he3.Remember being eight-years-old and zooming in on an ant or a piece of dandruff on that plastic microscope that you received for your birthday? Well now you can relive those days of questioning and experimentation with the USB Microscope, which is the perfect device to wile away the hours at work.

This nifty USB gadget allows you zoom in (from 20x to 200x) on any object you happen to have on hand. It also comes with software allowing you to be a real boffin and record your findings as photos and videos onto your PC.

To use, just plug the USB connection into your PC and start examining just how gross your keyboard really is - no science degree required!

The USB Microscope is versatile enough to be held like a pen or can be fixed to a little desktop stand. It even features an internal white LED to illuminate objects to the max.

This gadget is really a sophisticated bit of sciencery and would come in handy for students, collectors, the generally inquisitive or those with a hangnail that they just can’t stop inspecting.

For some examples of just how good this gadget is, check out some tests that the guys over at Firebox did.

RRP: £49.95
