My FAV screensaver just got a face lift. Checkout the new Electric Sheep
Saturday, July 4th, 2009This has to be my personal fav screen saver.
Electric Sheep is a distributed computing project for animating and evolving fractal flames, which are in turn distributed to the networked computers, which display them as a screensaver on the individual node computers of the distributed network. The process is transparent to the casual user, who can simply install the software as a screensaver. Alternatively, the user may become more involved with the project, manually creating sheep (video files of animated fractal flames) for upload to the server.
Check out the project @ www.electricsheep.org

A few tips on speeding up boot on an XP install.
Saturday, June 27th, 20091. Remove all spyware. Use SpyBotSeek&Destroy, SuperAntiSpyware & AVG Free
2. Defrag & Checkdisk. Diskeeper er Just plane old Right Click Drive => Tools => Defrag/Checkdisk
3. Msconfig (For removing startup items) & Microsoft Bootvis (Debug M$ boots: Read More) are your friends. Kill all the stuff that is slowing down the boot.
4. Remove everything from the desktop (Hundreds of items on the desktop slow the puter down).
5. Microsofts Sysinternals Suite - Use ProcessExplorer (to see more about what is running), Autoruns (Easy way to see whats auto starting), TCPView (See if anything is contacting home…), RootkitRevealer (if all else fails).
6. Update OS , Browsers, & Firewall Settings.
