Tips and Tricks for Flash Disk

Block copy data from computer to flash or usbdisk
How to secure your computer so that data can not be copied to the flash do the following

1. Open REGEDIT
2. HKEY_LOCALMACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control
3. In CONTROL folder, type -> Edit> New> Key The new folder name -> "StorageDevicePolicies"
4. "StorageDevicePolicies", type Edit> New> Dword (32-bit)
5. The new key name: "WriteProtect"
6. Click 2x Key WriteProtect it, then change the Value Data so 1
7. Restart

To open a protection for the data can be copied to the flash by changing the value in write-protected key to 1.

How to open Flash Disk Write Protected Affected:

This problem arises because the flash disk immediately revoked without "savely removed hardware". To overcome this there are several ways, which can be managed for each case (not for every case). Nothing hurts to try:

Tips 1.

• Start > Run > type ‘regedit’ then hit 'OK'.
• Browse to the following key:
• My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlS et\Control\StorageDevicePolicies
• Double click on the string ‘WriteProtect’ and change the ‘Value Data’ box to ‘0’
• You may also need to do this for the strings in any folders called ‘ControlSet***’ e.g.
• My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\C ontrol\StorageDevicePolicies

Tips 2.
I am running Windows XP Service Pack 2, so this description applies only in that environment.
Centon's tech support suggested doing the following...
Start->Settings->Control Panel
Administrative Tools
Computer Management
Under Storage in the left panel, click on Disk Management, wait a minute for Windows to do whatever it is doing,......
Locate the data stick/thumb drive/whatever-you-want-to-call it, in the right top windowand click on it.
Right click
in the popup, click on "Delete Partition" -- make darn sure you are doing this to the RIGHT drive!!!!!
Right click again, and choose "Create Partition" (or was it format, I forget maybe it was both).

Today's Broadband

With well over 100 million lines provisioned worldwide, DSL is truly a global and well-recognized technology. DSL deployment is even a political issue in many countries. Some governments track the overall number of DSL subscribers and subsidize large infrastructure deployments to attract businesses and development.

This is much like bridges, electricity, and roads are subsidized to stimulate economic growth. DSL represents more than 63% of global broadband connectivity and is available in just about every developed country, as well as in  many poorer economies. With service available to more than 75% (and rapidly growing) of the population in developed countries across Europe, the U.S., Japan, and Korea, among others, dropping prices and wide availability are helping fuel its deployment.

With applications such as Internet, voice, and video serving individuals, businesses, educational institutions, and governments, DSL has cut into a large cross section of society. Some of DSL’s early success was attributed to the fee structure, in which customers were given a fixed line speed for a flat monthly fee. In some

parts of the world, this is commonplace, but others still charge on a usage tariff, which is usually volume-based. It is still an open question how advanced services will be funded—if the demand itself is enough to support a flat fee, or if wider usage-based billing is needed. To date, the vast majority of demand comes from simple best-effort high-speed Internet services, which are becoming increasingly commoditized as indicated by decreasing prices. Telcos are again looking at new ways to provide additional revenue- generating services over DSL. They are looking at where new customer bandwidth demands are coming from. Higher-speed Internet, VoD, broadcast/ multicast media, and high-definition TV are all services that are well-aligned with consumer market trends.

This market is now expanding not from an embedded base of narrowband connectivity, but rather from subscribers who are accustomed to multimegabit-rate DSL. This market offers a path to higher revenue generation through the adoption of triple-play-type services. For these services (and revenue) to be realized, there is a much greater dependency on quality of service compared to today’s service delivery. Line encoding schemes are increasing speeds through ADSL2+ and VDSL2 into the dozens of megabits-per-second (Mbps) rates that allow high-definition video and multimedia services. As a result, subscribers expect the same or greater quality and reliability they curently experience with their satellite, cable, or terrestrial service. Table 1.5 shows the data rates required by a handful of applications or tasks.

With average DSL speeds in the single Mbps for upstream and low (3 to 5) Mbps for downstream, it is essential that line rates and quality evolve to compete with VSAT and cable-based content providers, which have much more downstream bandwidth available to them. ADSL2+ and VDSL2 are promising enhancements because they provide adequate bandwidth combined with appropriate QoS controls for triple-play services. A 20Mbps ADSL2+ connection could support HDTV, VoIP, and Internet simultaneously if traffic is correctly prioritized. The opportunity for telecom companies and service providers is enormous if they can meet these growing bandwidth demands using their existing copper infrastructure. Chapter 6, “Evolutions in Last-Mile Broadband Access,” discusses in more detail recent DSLAM technology developments as well as other types of broadband access for comparison.

WHAT’S NEXT?

Higher data bit-rate DSL such as ADSL2+ and VDSL are being adopted, and 

other FTTx-type services such as Verizon’s FIOS are gaining in the market. 

Therefore, it is a safe assumption that speeds to the end user are increasing and 

should continue to do so in the near/medium-term future. These new high 

bit-rate specifications are there to pave the way for a new suite of premium services, 

such as simultaneous data, video, and voice using advances in BNG technology 

to offer dynamic services with granular QoS.

Regulations, as seen with the Telecommunications Act of 1996 in the U.S., can 

also play a role in deciding which services and technologies make it into wide 

deployment. For example, issues that are still being debated, such as “common 

carrier status,” could punctuate the broadband landscape with unforeseen interconnect 

costs. Common carrier status determines whether a provider is responsible 

for the content it delivers. The applicability of this status on individual 

operators recently became especially contentious when some telecommunications 

providers were affecting traffic (reducing its priority or blocking it altogether) 

coming from off-net VoIP providers. Common carrier status may also 

have an impact on a carrier’s ability to affect content on its own triple-play 

networks.

Enterprise adoption of high-bandwidth, low-cost wide-area network (WAN) 

services will enable new applications and interaction across the enterprise and 

externally with customers and partners. Lower-cost, high-bandwidth broadband 

connections allow telecommuters to work at home, saving transport costs for

staff and office overhead for companies. Small and medium-sized enterprises can 

gain access to the types of services and applications that previously only larger 

organizations could afford, such as data replication across WANs.

The adoption of broadband services is also often looked at as an indication of 

economic growth in some countries. With greater access to the Internet and 

other broadband services, countries can bolster their educational systems, 

become more attractive to multinational corporations by providing the infrastructure 

they require and expect, and develop a strong pool of experience and 

skill around the technology itself, as well as the information available through 

the technology.

SUMMARY

After a long history, carrier networks and the services they can offer have evolved 

dramatically. They have gone from the simple low-bit-rate connections previously 

available in the legacy circuit-switched carrier’s network to the flexible 

high-speed broadband services widely available today. 

As carriers seek to move up the value chain by offering additional content and 

application services through triple-play networks, the supporting network architectures 

must continue to evolve in parallel. This evolution has been seen historically 

through the early DSL Forum architectures, from TR-001, TR-018 through 

TR-025, and forward to TR-059 and into TR-101. 

Much of this evolution comes from constantly increasing capabilities on the 

same copper lines that have served subscribers for decades. Bandwidth is rapidly 

becoming widely available in more places and at a lower cost. Along with this 

development comes an increasing opportunity for service providers, carriers, 

and content providers, who can understand this evolving architecture, to deliver 

new types of services and reach new groups of potential subscribers.

Wireless network systems - Part01

The discussion in Chapter 1 indicated that dividing the planned coverage area into a number of radio cells results in a more spectrally efficient solution with smaller and lighter end-user devices. In such a network, as the individual moves further away from the cell to which he or she is currently connected, the signal strength at the mobile eventually falls to a level where correct operation cannot be guaranteed and the call may ‘drop’. However, because the cellular system is designed to ensure good coverage over the plan region there will be one or more other cells at this location that can be received at adequate signal strength, provided some mechanism is found to ‘hand over’ the call to one of these cells. Most of the complexity in practical cellular systems arises from the need to achieve this handover in a way that makes this process as imperceptible to the

user as possible. This chapter aims to establish a common understanding of the way most cellular networks operate, using the ubiquitous GSM system as a baseline, and highlight the key differences that can be expected in networks providing fixed or ‘nomadic’ wireless access. It will also explore the factors that significantly contribute to cellular network operating expense and thus determine activities that impact the operators’ profit and loss account. Finally, the profit and loss account will be used as an agenda to identify wireless network technologies that are likely to change in the future. The standards that define cellular networks, as a relatively new technology, are subject to constant evolution as vendors and operators work to improve performance and introduce new features. Even though GSM was first deployed in 1992, it is still subject to very active development and so it is necessary to define a particular version as the baseline for this discussion. The specific version of GSM known as GSM Release 98 will be used for all discussion in this chapter; it supports circuit and packet transport along with much of the functionality found in more modern systems.

Cellular networks

At the risk of stating the obvious, the original requirement for cellular networks (and still 

the dominant source of revenue) was to enable people to communicate by voice whilst 

they were away from their ‘normal’ fixed-line home or office phones. The architecture 

of first-generation digital cellular systems, such as GSM, was, therefore, based on the 

then prevalent designs in fixed voice networks, with specific extensions to add mobility. 

Indeed the first entrants into the GSM market, such as Ericsson and Siemens, used their 

fixed network platforms as the basis of new mobile elements known as mobile switching 

centres (MSC) and base station controllers (BSC). In a 1980s fixed network (when GSM 

was conceived), transport capacity over medium and long distances was still a significant 

cost. A series of switches at the local exchanges and prior to long-distance transport was 

therefore used to ‘concentrate’ the traffic from the small percentage of telephones active 

at any one time (for instance within the catchment area of an exchange) on to a much 

reduced number of ‘lines’ for (expensive) long-distance transport. The architecture of 

GSM reflects this pedigree. Figure 2.1 shows a top level block diagram for a GSM 

network [1, 2] and if, for a moment, the BSC and BTS are ignored and instead an 

imaginary wire is used to connect the mobile station (MS) to the ‘A’ interface of the

MSC, the same fixed-line architecture can be seen. 

Section 2.1 seeks to establish an understanding of the key principles of cellular operation, 

which will not only be found inGSMbut will also largely recur in the next generation 

systems described in Chapters 6 and 7. These chapters will then focus only on the key 

differences compared with this GSM baseline.

The GSM circuit switched network

The mobile switching centre (MSC) takes incoming mobile calls and switches the majority 

of these to its base station controllers (BSC), which handle the target mobiles. If the 

dialled mobile is actually in a different part of the country, it is likely to be managed by 

another MSC and the gateway MSC (GMSC) will route calls to the appropriate MSC. It 

will also, when necessary, switch traffic to other public land mobile networks (PLMN) 

and to fixed networks. The network elements above the BSC that ultimately connect to 

the public switched telephone network (PSTN) or public packet data network (PPDN) 

together comprise the core network.

The one or more BSCs connected to the MSC together with the one or more base 

transceiver stations (BTS) connected to each BSC form the access network. The access 

network supports the signalling between the MS, MSC and dialled MS necessary to 

establish the call and subsequently transports the bearer path traffic for the duration of 

the call. For most calls, it will also handle all aspects of mobility necessary to ensure 

that the connection is maintained seamlessly as the user moves from one cell to another. 

Occasionally, the MSC is involved to execute an inter-BSC handover, which occurs when 

a mobile moves from a cell managed by one BSC to another cell managed by a different 

controller. The core and access networks perform similar functions for packet traffic 

for those networks supporting GPRS (GSM packet radio system) but using the packet 

control unit (PCU) – a part of the BSC, the serving GPRS support node (SGSN) and 

gateway GSN (GGSN).

Finally, the mobile phone, which for many will be the only element with which they 

are familiar. Known in ETSI terminology as the mobile station or MS, it is the element 

central to any transaction in the mobile network. It is therefore appropriate to spend some

time looking at the key attributes of these devices; the ETSI terminology will be used 

throughout this section. The key features and functionality of the MS are summarised in 

Figure 2.2. The mandatory features of mobile stations are defined in ETSI specifications  

[3] together with descriptions of some optional functionality, which is more fully documented 

in [4, 5, 6, 7]. The distinction between mandatory and optional functionality is 

essential to ensure inter-operability of phones from any manufacturer on any vendor’s 

network infrastructure. Conformance testing against these mandatory features is undertaken 

by vendors and operators before new phones are introduced into an operator’s 

network.

Indonesian Language, to the 5 most popular in facebook

Indonesian became the most widely used language in the fifth social networking site Facebook. Based on recent reports on studies of language in social site Facebook, the Indonesian language under English, Spanish, French, and Turkish.
The survey, carried out the research firm Inside Network said more than 20 million speakers of Indonesian using Facebook.
Facebook's most popular language is English with 52 per cent. In second place was occupied by a considerable distance with a variant of Spanish-variant as much as 15 percent. Next in succession is Turkish, French, and Indonesia with each of the approximately 5 percent of users.
Then, following the Italian and German by 3.9 percent to about 2.7 percent. The most popular languages in the next Facebook is the language of China and Portuguese. The number of Facebook users themselves as a whole to reach 400 million people.
Indonesian is also the only language in Southeast Asia that is able to penetrate the top five most popular languages on Facebook. In fact, the condition of the telecommunications infrastructure in Indonesia is not as good as other countries in Asia. In addition, computer access in the ground water also is still very limited for the 234 million Indonesian population.
According to Inside Facebook, based in California, United States, these conditions create opportunities to profit from the country its national language is widely used.
"Along with the growth of Facebook worldwide, and with the increase in new users in countries outside the U.S., the language in which Facebook users are important factors for the perpetrator and the developer market," said a spokesman of Inside Network, as quoted from InsideFacebook, June 1 2010.
Inside Network also stressed how important it is to adjust the Facebook site with cultural and local values (vivanews.com)

New Feature Android 2.2 Froyo

Sounds like a beta version of Android 2.2 (Froyo) is ready to be tested - and has some interesting features that we believe Android users liked it. The new version of the operating system will be available on mobile phones Nexus One, and Verizon mobile phones is estimated at the end of May - my estimate would be launched on the same day as the conference event Google I / O (May 19). 

New Android version will display a lot of bug fixes, as well as several additional significant. New features will include:
JIT Compiler
This is very big. With enabled JIT (Just-in-Time compilation), the application runs much faster - 3x faster. In addition to the improved speed of the duration of the use of batteries will last longer.

Automatic Application Updates
For both application developers and users, this feature will make a big difference. As a developer, you want the entire user base using the latest version of your software - this gives more satisfaction to the users, and makes your software easier to support.

As a user, it takes more effort than it takes to keep you up-to-date applications. If you've got 50 great apps with lots of active development, you will spend most of your time to update the software. Ok, this is probably excessive, but definitely better to have the operating system to do things that are "heavy".

FM Radio
This one is cool. It's like having a giant MP3 collection that you can listen to while on his way to work - but what if you want to hear the morning show, or your local community radio station for the latest in the world of independent local music? You must remove your Walkman.

Well, it sounds like Google will enable the FM radio in the latest version of Android.

New Linux Kernel
A new version of such matters is good for several reasons - security, stability, performance, etc.. The latest version of the kernel actually uses less RAM. This will have a positive impact on your cell phone.

Improved OpenGL
Graphics and game performance will be enhanced with the planned updates to OpenGL for Froyo.

Support for Flash 1.10
Apple has been ignoring the flash. Google takes another approach, and give users what they really want here. People have been clamoring for Flash support on their mobile devices, and thanks to Froyo, they will have it.

Color Trackball

Well, this is not a necessary feature, but Google will allow the color of the trackball. Trackball is very useful - it serves as a notifier that is extremely useful. My use them all the time without - when it flashes, meaning I have new email. With color added, can serve many different purposes.

Indeed the new features of this interesting and we-we must have patience to wait ga new Android OS versions (from : http://www.beritateknologi.com)

Scam and Phishing Activity Decreasing

Message and a phishing scam in March, slightly lower, around 2-3%, from February. According to a recent security report from Symantec.
Number two types of cybercrime include 17% of all spam (junk e-mail) that milling about in cyberspace, along the last month. Meanwhile, the total spam is also seen no decline. Last March, spam accounted for 89.34% of all e-mail, difference 0.65%, compared to the amount of spam in February.
Symantec estimates that this decrease occurs because there is no longer a new natural disaster that can be exploited by spammers. They are now more focused on seasonal events and events listed in the calendar, such as the Easter holidays. Phishing activity also decreased, due to decrease in the volume of attacks coming from automated toolkit. Nevertheless, the increasing volume of unique URL and IP attacks. URL rose 1.5% while the unique IP attacks increased by close to 4% from the previous month.
In particular, some of the following trends become a focus for Symantec in its report:

    * Spam as economic indicators: Based on National Bureau of Economic Research, the United States has experienced a recession since December 2007. Symantec found that this recession continues to make spammers busy adjusting to current events about the economic crisis. The proof, along in March, the top ten titles containing the word spam in the U.S. economy the key, with spam offers of employment to be the top spam subjects.
    * Phishing toward electronic payments: Symantec observed occurrence of large-scale phishing attack against two well-known brands that provide retail electronic payment services to banks worldwide. Phishers launch a massive attack that represents 4.4% of all unique phishing websites. Page phishing spam is directed to consumers titled "your card 4XXX XXXX XXXX XXX XXXX: possible fraudulent transaction ID."
    * Phishing on the job site India: India has increased the number of new jobs during Q1 2010. The increasing number of jobseekers in India to trigger a phishing attack on the Indian job sites. Phisher asking personal data, such as e-mail address and password of the employer. After stealing personal data, the Fraudster send spam messages to the employer. Contents, the employer must pay some money to upgrade or to access certain recruitment solutions.
    * Spammers are moving hosting to Russia: In two recent reports, Symantec observed a sharp decline in spam that contains a URL. Cn. Conversely, there was an increase in spam messages with the domain. Ru. Action China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), which tightened its domain registration. Cn give a huge influence on it .. Unfortunately, spammers kinimenemukan "sanctuary" in the new domain. Ru.
