Today i installed media center on my pc. But i forgot to back up my bookmarks and here i am
without any of my precious bookmarks. Now i think it is necessary to know how to back up
bookmarks.
This is to be taken as both a warning and a tutorial, cause I know lots of people that've lost all their bookmarks because of a virus, or failed harddrive etc.
So here is how to make a copy of all your bookmarks from FireFox.
go to "bookmarks"->"organize bookmarks"
select all your bookmarks.
go to "file menu" -> "export"
select your location (where you want to save it.)
and save with the name you prefer.
e.g.
bookmarks.html
Now to get these bookmarks back.
goto "bookmarks"->"organize bookmarks"
"file menu" -> "import"
from the next window select "from file"
and select the saved file.
there you go. all your precious bookmarks are yours again.
I know most of you already know this, but it's for the people that don't know about it.

FIREFOX
well we all know firefox is pretty fast already but did you know that you can tweak it and improve the speed even more?
Here's what you do:
In the URL bar, type “about:config” and press enter. This will bring up the configuration “menu” where you can change the parameters of Firefox.
Note that these are what I’ve found to REALLY speed up my Firefox significantly - and these settings seem to be common among everybody else as well. But these settings are optimized for broadband connections - I mean with as much concurrent requests we’re going to open up with pipelining… lol… you’d better have a big connection.
Double Click on the following settins and put in the numbers below - for the true / false booleans - they’ll change when you double click.
Code:
browser.tabs.showSingleWindowModePrefs – true
network.http.max-connections – 48
network.http.max-connections-per-server – 16
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy – 8
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server – 4
network.http.pipelining – true
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests – 100
network.http.proxy.pipelining – true
network.http.request.timeout – 300
“network.http.pipelining” to “true”
“network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true
Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0″. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.
Now you should notice you’re loading pages MUCH faster now!
say "thank you onkar" if you like it.

MOVIES
I really hope none of you know this. many times we want to see the movie with subtitles.
now here is a trick that works 100%.
First you have to look for your subtitles, here is a site:
Put it in the same folder from your movie and rename the file to the name from the movie:
Example:
Rename:
After you did this you download this tool:
Pass
It's stands in Microseconds so 1000 ms is 1 s offcourse.
5500 is 5.5 s.
Then everything should work perfect and then you have subtitles! Hope this is help to a lot of people
Enjoy!!
P..S :
much as it pains me to confess but this trick doesn't belong to me.say thanx to laptop
