Custom google search pages with groovle

If you’ve become bored of the regular Google Search page with the monotonous white background, then Groovle offers something that would pep up your day. Groovle enables you to select your own backgrounds for a Google Search page. You can use any of the hundreds of images in their database or upload any image of your own to use as a background for the search page.




Groovle basically uses Google Custom Search for their site and the results you get are, of course, no different but it would simply make the search page a bit visually appealing. There are different categories like Nature, Animals, Space, Celebrities etc so that you have a variety to choose from.

Add Copy To And Move To Options Whenever U Right Click On A File .

Once done, you will be able to right click any file or folder and use the Browse for Folder dialog to choose the location you want to move or copy your file or folder to, without having to go to the destination path,

Repeat the above and create another new key named Move To.

You should now have two new subkeys under the ContextMenuHandlers key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Move To

Select the Copy To key and in the right hand pane, double click “Default”
Enter this clsid value as the value data:

{C2FBB630-2971-11d1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}

Next , select the Move To key and in the right hand pane set the default value to:

{C2FBB631-2971-11d1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}

This now takes care of the Copy and Move options for the right click context menu of all your files.
Now all that is left is to add the same options to the right click menu of all your folders.
The procedure will be the same as for files but at a different key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shellex\ContextMenuHan dlers

Right click ContextMenuHandlers and create a new key named Copy To.
Right click it again and create another new key named Move To.

For the Move To:
{C2FBB631-2971-11d1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}

Make URLs short

01DecentURL is something like TinyUrl that provides you URL shortening service. DecentURL can make URLs short too, but its main purpose is to make URLs more readable. It automatically grabs the title of the page and use it to make the DecentURL. It also includes the domain to let you see where you’re going.
URL redirection is far from a novel idea – there are at least 41 other services that do it. As far as I can tell, however, those sites all focus on making long addresses short. DecentURL can make URLs short too, but its primary goal is to make them decent. Teach ’em some manners.

Dr. Watson can be a little annoying at times, but there's solution. You can turn it off. The behaviour of Dr Watson is controlled by:

The contents of the REG_SZ value, Auto, controls how Dr Watson operates:

1:
(default) Causes the debugger to start automatically.

You can disable Dr Watson completely by deleting the AeDebug key. To re-enable it, type:

drwtsn32 -i
