How to remove Yahoo messenger ads

Posted on April 20th, 2008 in tech | 2 Comments »

Old topic but always usefull.

The “hard way”:

Removing the Ad from the bottom of the main Yahoo! Messenger window

1. Open “%Programfiles%\Yahoo!\Messenger\YahooMessenger.exe” file into a Hex Editor.
2. Locate the offset 3981AC and change the string “enabled” to anything you want.
3. Save and Exit.
Remove Ads from chat window, webcam, etc.

1. Open notepad and paste the following code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\yahoo\pager\YUrl]
“First Login Beacon”=”*”
“Tutorials”=”*”
“Messenger Help”=”*”
“Voice General Help”=”*”
“Change Room Banner”=”*”
“Address Book”=”*”
“Finance Disclaimer”=”*”
“Messenger Ad”=”*”
“Chat Adurl”=”*”
“Calendar Alert Ad URL”=”*”
“Conf Adurl”=”*”
“Mail Alert Ad URL”=”*”
“News Alert Ad URL”=”*”
“Personals Alert Ad URL”=”*”
“Stock Alert Ad URL”=”*”
“Webcam Viewer Ad Medium”=”*”
“Webcam Viewer Ad Big”=”*”
“Webcam Viewer Ad”=”*”
“Webcam Upload Ad”=”*”
“Chat Transition Ad”=”*”
“N2Phone Adurl”=”*”
“Webcam Viewer Ad Bid”=”*”

2. Save the file with any name and give the extension as .REG
3. Run the file.

The easy way:

There is also another Y!Msgr ad removal tool Yahoo! Messenger AD-Remover New 2 Patch (download link) which patch the YahooMessenger.exe and edit some registry values. After patch, the flash ads on the main windows will be removed completely.

P.s. soultions tested vor versions lower than 8.1.0.421 (including)

How to save a youTube video to your computer.

Posted on April 16th, 2008 in tech | No Comments »

Ok there are several possibilities to download a video from youTube, Google video, or any video sharing site. Here are 2 of them:

  1. Using Mozilla Firefox’s cache. First find out where the browser stores the cache files by typing “about:cache” in a new Firefox tab. Then open the video that you want to save to your computer in a new tab. When the video starts Firefox begins writting a cache file to the previous found folder. After the video is completly loaded you should just copy the file from the cache folder (beware at the creation timestamp!), give it a “.flv” extension and you are ready to go.
    This option has a big fault, and it seems that the Mozilla developpers wont fix it. The browser wouldnt create cache files larger than ~67 Mb and the user can’t change that limit. The size of the whole cache folder can easily be changed to any value by going to Firefox’s Tools>Options>Advanced menu. (the default value is 50 Mb)
  2. Using Download Helper - a Mozilla Firefox Add-on that enables you to get virtualy any video/picture from almost any site. A minor disadvantage of this add-on is that it only lets you download one file at a time, butt I still preffer this way of getting stuff from video sites.

For playing .flv files I recommand Real’s Real Player

Recunosc! Folosesc si Trilulilu.ro :) Poate ca in ultima vreme au fost probleme, dar cand vreau doar sa ascult o melodie, fara video, fara remake, fara tribute, fara parodie, deci fara tot felul de mutre …. aleg crocodilu’

Behold the holy Grail!

Starting at €1800 (USD amount) more …. here

You could get a notebook with similar specs. at around €1200 (USD amount). Wonder if it worths the extra €600 (USD amount).

Finally got my hands on a nice phone ( ….for a couple of hours :( )

With a full QWERTY key pad, smooth design, 3.2″ color display ( TFT touchscreen, 256K colors ), 3 mega-pixel camera, it’s an ideal bussiness/multimedia phone. ( full description )
Anyway this is serious competition for the iPhone ( I’ll go for this one - main reason: QWERTY ). Let’s hope for a WLAN on future releases.

Pentru ca zilele acestea am auzit zicandu-se ceva de genul: “Steaua a devenit un brand puternic pe piata romaneasca”.

oaie!

Felicitari pentru ca vindeti mai multa prostie prostimii. Pentru ca vindeti fulare, bratari, postere si tricouri atat de indispensabile oilor care isi urmeaza ciobanul neclintit. Pentru ca liderul este un adevarat formator de opinie (pentru cei care sunt suficient de slabi ca sa il urmeze). Felicitari pentru publicul caruia i se adreseaza acest “BRAND” numit Steaua.

p. s. why dont you all just die?

Patrick Bateman: Harold, it’s Bateman, Patrick Bateman. You’re my lawyer so I think you should know: I’ve killed a lot of people. Some girls in the apartment uptown uh, some homeless people maybe 5 or 10 um an NYU girl I met in Central Park. I left her in a parking lot behind some donut shop. I killed Bethany, my old girlfriend, with a nail gun, and some man uh some old faggot with a dog last week. I killed another girl with a chainsaw, I had to, she almost got away and uh someone else there I can’t remember maybe a model, but she’s dead too. And Paul Allen. I killed Paul Allen with an axe in the face, his body is dissolving in a bathtub in Hell’s Kitchen. I don’t want to leave anything out here. I guess I’ve killed maybe 20 people, maybe 40. I have tapes of a lot of it, uh some of the girls have seen the tapes. I even, um… I ate some of their brains, and I tried to cook a little. Tonight I, uh, I just had to kill a LOT of people. And I’m not sure I’m gonna get away with it this time. I guess I’ll uh, I mean, ah, I guess I’m a pretty uh, I mean I guess I’m a pretty sick guy. So, if you get back tomorrow, I may show up at Harry’s Bar, so you know, keep your eyes open.

Patrick Bateman: There are no more barriers to cross. All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it I have now surpassed. My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone, in fact I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape, but even after admitting this there is no catharsis, my punishment continues to elude me and I gain no deeper knowledge of myself; no new knowledge can be extracted from my telling. This confession has meant nothing.
