Libera Memoria RAM sull’iPhone rimuovendo Daemons non necessari

17 11 2009

Prima di addentrarci nel tutorial e’ di vitale importanza fare alcune raccomandazioni. Vi consigliamo caldamente di effettuare un backup di tutti i files che andrete a modificare con questo guida. Modificheremo file di sistema molto importanti e se per sbaglio rimuovete quello sbagliato e non avete fatto un backup di sicurezza sarete costretti ad un ripristino.

Conisglio di aver installato nel vostro iPhone o iPod Touch anche i programmi scaricabili da Cydia e che trovate di seguito, nell’eventualita’ in cui qualcosa vada storto e non riusciate piu’ ad accedere via ssh per ripristinare i file che avete precedentemente backupato.

  1. iFile
  2. MobileTerminal

Prima di cominciare e’ necessario che sappiate cosa sia un daemon. Un daemon, un “Demone” in italiano, e’ un programma che lavora in background ed e’ sempre in funzione, dall’avvio del nostro iPhone o iPod Touch fino allo spengimento.

Quando il nostro iPhone e’ in funzione ha ben 54 daemons che lavorano in background e che consumano le risorse del nostro iPhone. Questi daemons sono adibiti per esempio alla navigazione in internet, alla ricezione di chiamate ma anche alla raccolta di logs ecc. Molti sono di fondamentale importanza per il corretto funzionamento del dispositivo, altri possono servire solo a qualcuno ed alcuni invece sono completamenti inutili per l’utente finale.

Essendo processi di sistema non possono essere terminati attraverso SBSettings oppure attraverso MemTool. La buona notizia, come dicevo prima, e’ che diversi di questi Daemons per la maggior parte degli utenti non sono necessari, lo sono solo per apple al fine di raccogliere dati ecc, e possono  essere disabilitati per permettervi di recuperare un po’ di memoria RAM.

Per prima cosa entrate in SSH nel vostro dispositivo ed arrivate alla cartella /System/Library.

Trovate la cartella LaunchDaemons e scaricatela interamente sul vostro desktop. Rinominate l’originale nel vostro iPhone con launchDaemons.old cosi da avere una copia di backup sul telefono. Per prudenza scaricatela anche una seconda volta e tenetela nel desktop insieme alla prima.

Disabilitate i Daemons che volete dalla prima cartella che avete scaricato sul desktop (per farlo dovrete semplicemente eliminare il file .plist) e ricaricate la cartella modificata nello stesso percorso.

Fate attenzione pero’ che la copia non sovrascrivi i file originali e controllate che i permessi della cartella LaunchDaemons siano settati su 755 (Sette cinque cinque). Inserire permessi sbagliati provocherebbe il freeze del vostro dispositivo sul logo della Apple.

Una volta copiati i file e riuppati, riavviate il dispositivo e controllate la maggior quantita’ di RAM disponibile.

Di seguito vi propongo una lista dei daemons che potete tranquillamente disabilitare e di quelli che non dovete assolutamente toccare.

Safe Daemons: Questi daemons possono essere disabilitati tranquillamente da qualsiasi utente

  • com.apple.DumpPanic.plist – Invia crash per una valutazione da parte di Apple
  • com.apple.ReportCrash.(Different Things).plist – Ci sono 5 di questi Damons e servono a raccogliere informazioni sui crash delle applicazioni, su quando avvengono ecc.
  • com.apple.DumpBasebandCrash.plist – Regista i crash della baseband, che possono avvenire durance il normale uso. l’ipod touch non ha baseband
  • com.apple.CrashHouseKeeping.plist – Anche questo daemon serve a registrare crash
  • com.apple.aslmanager.plist – Questo daemon si occupa dei log di sistema
  • com.apple.syslogd.plist – logs di sistema
  • com.apple.powerlog.plist – monitora le incompatibilita’ con i ricaricatore di terze parti

  • com.apple.chud.chum.plist – Questo daemon e’ collegato all’apple CHUD (Computer Hardware Understanding Developer) tools. Rimuovendo questo daemon non si ha  alcun problema a meno che voi non siate sviluppatori.
  • com.apple.chud.pilotfish.plist – Anche quest daemon e’ collegato all’Apple’s CHUD tools. Rimuovendo questo daemon non si alcun problema a meno che voi non siate sviluppatori

Conditional Daemons: Questi daemons possono essere disabilitati a seconda delle vostre esigenze.

  • com.apple.AddressBook.plist – Se rimosso, i contatti nell’applicazione telefono verranno caricati piu’ lentamente. Rimuovetelo se non vi interessa.
  • com.apple.accessoryd.plist – Se rimosso, vengono disabilitati gli accessori come trasmittore radio fm, i dock e i cavi AV. Gli accessori caricheranno lo stesso il vostro dispositivo, ma sarà’ l’unica cosa che potranno fare. Rimuovetelo se non usate nessuno di questi accessori.
  • com.apple.apsd.plist – Se rimosso el notifiche push non funzioneranno più’. Rimuovetelo se non ne fate uso
  • com.apple.dataaccess.dataaccessd.plist – Se rimosso i contatti non si sincronizzeranno piu’ con Exchange o Google Sync. Disabilitatelo se non usate questi servizi.
  • com.apple.datamigrator.plist – Utilizzato per trasferire i contatti dalla SIM all’iphone. Se avete un iPod Touch o non vi interessa piu’ trasferire i conatti dalla SIM all’iPhone disabilitatelo.
  • com.apple.racoon.plist - Usato per Virtual Private Networks. Disabilitate questo daemon se non usate alcun VPNs.
  • com.apple.MobileInternetSharing.plist – Usato per il tethering. Disabilitatelo se avete un iPod Touch o se non siete interessati al tethering.
  • com.apple.AOSNotification.plist - Questo daemon funziona con la sincronizzazione id MobileMe. Se non usage MobileMe disabilitatelo.
  • com.apple.AdminLite.plist – Questo daemon cerca di riprendere il controllo del device se pensa che stai aspettando troppo per un processo. Puoi disabilitarlo se preferisci uscire dai crash dell’applicazione semplicemente forzando l’uscita premendo sul tasto home

Daemon da NON disabilitare assolutamente

  • com.apple.mobile.Lockdown.plist – Serva all’autorizzazione della SIM e ad altre cose importanti
  • com.apple.fairplayd.plist – Controlla i DRM per verificare la musica e le applicazioni che avete acquistato
  • com.apple.installd.plist – Serva durante all’installazione delle applicazioni
  • com.apple.BTServer.plist – Se disabilitato l’iPhone diventa molto lento e instabile.
  • com.apple.configd+pm.plist – Serve per le configurazioni di sistema
  • com.apple.configd-pm.plist – Anche questo daemon si occupa di altre configurazioni di sistema
  • com.apple.gmmd.plist – Un servizio di debudding per il vostro dispositivo
  • com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist – DNS. Disabilitando questo daemon non avrete piu la possibilita’ di accedere ad internet
  • com.apple.CommCenter.plist – Serve per fare e ricevere telefonate
  • com.apple.locationd.plist – Serva per la localizazzione GPS
  • com.apple.mediaserverd.plist - Daemon adibito all’esecuzione di musica e video
  • com.apple.graphicsservices.sample.plist - Mostra gli album artwork
  • com.apple.usbptpd.plist – Abilita il tuo dispositivo a collegarsi al computer e a ricaricarsi.

iphone_dev

Dopo aver rimosso tutti i daemons che non utilizzate riscontrerete un aumento della RAM ed una diminuzione dei tempi di caricamento. Nello specifico su iPhone 3G raggiungerete i 60 MB liberi.

Nuovamente rinnovo l’inivito di cimentarsi in questa guida solo se siete degli utenti esperti, non mi ritengo responsabile delle conseguenze !!!

Gestire un sistema remoto: condivisione desktop e TeamViewer

17 11 2009

Cosa offre Windows: connessione desktop remoto e assistenza remota

Amministratori di sistema e professionisti sentono spesso l’esigenza di dover accedere, da remoto, ai personal computer installati in ufficio oppure al proprio domicilio. Inoltre, chi lavora nel settore informatico può aver necessità – a vari livelli – di fornire supporto tecnico in tempo reale in modalità remota. Un approccio simile porta con sé notevoli benefici: è possibile risolvere ad esempio un problema software segnalato da un cliente senza la necessità di recarsi fisicamente presso la sede dello stesso.

Condivisione del desktop remoto in Windows

Windows integra già due strumenti di base che consentono, agli utenti autorizzati, di visualizzare da remoto – attraverso la rete Internet – quanto mostrato sullo schermo del sistema remoto. La prima applicazione si chiama Condivisione desktop remoto ed è attivabile, nel caso di Windows XP, semplicemente accedendo al Pannello di controllo, facendo doppio clic sull’icona Sistema, sulla scheda Connessione remota quindi su Consenti agli utenti di connettersi in remoto al computer.
A questo punto si dovranno specificare, facendo riferimento al pulsante Seleziona utenti remoti… gli account utente che dovranno avere diritto ad accedere al desktop del personal computer in uso (“server”). Cliccando su Aggiungi…, si possono indicare gli utenti aventi titolo. Gli account dotati di diritti amministrativi (facenti parte del gruppo “Administrators”) possono già connettersi da remoto al desktop del personal computer. Il pulsante Aggiungi… consente di inserire ulteriori account, tra quelli non appartenenti agli amministratori.

La funzionalità per la condivisione del desktop remoto non potrà essere attivata per quegli account che non dispongono di una password associata.
Una volta attivata la casella Consenti agli utenti di connettersi in remoto al computer, Windows la funzionalità per la condivisione del desktop in modalità remota si porrà in ascolto sulla porta TCP 3389. Ciò significa che il sistema operativo accetterà le richieste di connessione dirette su tale porta e provvederà a verificare le credenziali di accesso inserite dall’utente remoto.

Il firewall di Windows viene automaticamente configurato in modo tale che il sistema sia in grado di accettare connessioni in ingresso sulla porta 3389 (la casella Non consentire eccezioni, all’interno della finestra Pannello di controllo, Windows Firewall deve essere disattivata).
Nel caso in cui si utilizzi un “personal firewall” sviluppato da terze parti al posto del firewall integrato in Windows, si dovrà configurare tale software cosicché permetta le connessioni in entrata sulla porta 3389.
Se il “personal firewall” contempla la possibilità di configurare regole di connessione molto strette, l’utente più smaliziato può agevolmente fare in modo che le connessioni dirette al personal computer da amministrare in modalità remota siano accettate solo ed esclusivamente nel caso in cui abbiano determinate caratteristiche (ad esempio, qualora provengano da un singolo IP o gruppi di indirizzi predefiniti). Se, per esempio, ci si collega tra due sedi che si affacciano sulla rete Internet usando il medesimo indirizzo IP (IP statico), il “personal firewall” sul sistema server può essere configurato in modo tale da acconsentire alle sole richieste di connessione che provengono da quell’unico IP.

La procedura per l’attivazione della condivisione desktop è identica anche nel caso di Windows Vista, limitatamente tuttavia alle versioni “Business”, “Enterprise” ed “Ultimate” del sistema operativo (le altre sono sprovviste dell’applicazione).

Una volta attivata la componente “server” della funzionalità “Desktop remoto” di Windows, è possibile connettersi alla macchina da qualunque postazione avviando il software Connessione desktop remoto (Start, Tutti i programmi, Accessori, Connessione desktop remoto oppure Start, Esegui…, mstsc.exe). Nella finestra che comparirà a video, basterà introdurre l’indirizzo IP assegnato al computer remoto che si desidera amministrare ed il nome utente da utilizzare (pulsante Opzioni).
Se il sistema da controllare è collegato in rete locale, è possibile limitarsi all’inserimento del nome ad esso associato; in alternativa si dovrà inserire l’indirizzo IP corretto.

Ovviamente, se la macchina server si affaccia su Internet utilizzando un router, l’IP da specificare è quello assegnato dal provider Internet al router stesso. Inoltre, ci si dovrà accertare che il traffico in entrata sulla porta TCP 3389 venga automaticamente reindirizzato, da parte del router, al computer sul quale è stata abilitata la funzionalità per la condivisione del desktop.
Se si desidera amministrare più computer della rete locale da remoto, si dovrà necessariamente optare – su ciascuna macchina “server” – per una porta diversa. Ad esempio, alla prima si potrà associare la porta di default 3389, alla seconda la 3390, alla terza la 3391 e così via. La scelta di una porta differente rispetto a quella predefinita, può essere effettuata accedendo al registro di Windows (chiave HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\RDP-Tcp; doppio clic sul valore DWORD PortNumber; scelta della base Decimale; introduzione del numero di porta da impiegare).

Assistenza remota

Le edizioni più “economiche” di Vista dispongono solamente della funzionalità di “Assistenza remota”, anch’essa ugualmente presente in Windows XP. L’Assistenza remota implica che due persone siano contemporaneamente davanti ai personal computer “client” e “server” perché le richieste di connessione debbono essere sempre espressamente accettate. Nel caso del desktop remoto, inoltre, il sistema rimane “bloccato” fintanto che è gestito dall’utente remoto mentre l’Assistenza remota mostra quanto avviene sullo schermo ad entrambe le parti.
Per utilizzare la funzionalità di Assistenza remota questa deve essere attivata nella finestra Sistema, Connessione remota.

Dal computer “server” si dovrà quindi inviare un Invito di assistenza remota (Start, Guida in linea e supporto tecnico, Invita un amico a connettersi a questo computer con Assistenza remota, Invitare qualcuno ad offrire assistenza oppure Start, Tutti i programmi, Assistenza remota). L’invito può essere spedito via Messenger, per posta elettronica o salvato sotto forma di file.

In Windows Vista è possibile accedere rapidamente alla funzionalità di Assistenza remota cliccando il pulsante Start quindi digitando Assistenza remota nella casella Inizia ricerca. Cliccando su Assistenza remota di Windows si potranno inviare richieste od offrire il proprio supporto.

Una soluzione più completa e flessibile: TeamViewer

Rispetto alla funzionalità per la condivisione del desktop remoto integrata in Windows, TeamViewer offre numerosi vantaggi in più. Oltre a poter essere installata su qualunque versione di Vista (non tutte le edizioni del sistema operativo permettono l’impiego del componente server di Connessione desktop remoto), TeamViewer è in grado di operare con qualunque configurazione di rete, anche dietro firewall e NAT.

La funzionalità Trasferimento file, attivabile dalla “barra degli strumenti” che compare nella parte alta della finestra condivisa, è possibile prelevare rapidamente i file d’interesse dal sistema remoto e memorizzarli sul computer locale.

Tra i fiori all’occhiello di TeamViewer vi è anche il fatto di essere un software estremamente compatto. Avviando il file eseguibile scaricabile da questa pagina), il software potrà essere installato sul sistema oppure si potrà scegliere di usufruire della versione “portabile” (non necessita nemmeno di essere eseguita con un account utente dotato di diritti amministrativi).

Nel caso in cui si opti per l’installazione normale, TeamViewer può essere configurato in modo tale che venga eseguito ad ogni avvio del sistema operativo. Configurandolo come servizio di Windows, TeamViewer è capace di avviarsi alla comparsa della finestra di login iniziale del sistema operativo. Va detto, tuttavia, che in questo caso la password non viene rigenerata ad ogni sessione di lavoro ma resta ovviamente la stessa.

Per attivare la connessione con una macchina remota, è necessario avviare TeamViewer su entrambi i sistemi (client e server). In primo luogo, verranno generati dei codici identificativi (ID e password) che permettono di individuare entrambi i computer. Il medesimo codice potrà essere riutilizzato nelle successive sessioni di lavoro per collegarsi rapidamente ai computer d’interesse.
Per impostazione predefinita, la password generata automaticamente da TeamViewer ha una lunghezza prefissata pari a soli quattro caratteri. Cliccando sul menù Extra, Opzioni quindi sulla scheda Protezione è possibile impostare il livello di sicurezza della password. Optando per Sicurissimo (10 caratteri), TeamViewer genererà una password personale composta di 10 caratteri (numeri, lettere maiuscole e minuscole, simboli).

Appena avviato, TeamViewer si pone in ascolto rilevando eventuali tentativi di connessione dall’esterno. Cliccando invece sul pulsante Collegarsi con l’interlocutore, dopo aver inserito il codice identificativo (ID) della macchina remota da amministrare, TeamViewer provvederà a connettersi con il sistema specificato presentandone il desktop.

Scegliendo la voce Presentazione, TeamViewer trasmetterà quanto visualizzato sul desktop del proprio personal computer al computer remoto: questa caratteristica si rivela particolarmente utile allorquando l’intento sia quello di mostrare le funzionalità di un prodotto software od illustrare un progetto ad un cliente.

Tra le funzionalità più evolute di TeamViewer vi è quella che consente di registrare una qualunque sessione di lavoro (che potrà poi essere successivamente riprodotta a video) e la possibilità di creare un rete virtuale VPN.

Stando a quanto dichiarato dalla software house sviluppatrice, TeamViewer vanterebbe già oltre 15 milioni di utenti in tutto il mondo. Per usi personali, l’utilizzo di TeamViewer è completamente gratuito. Il software è disponibile sia nella versione per Windows che per sistemi Mac.

L’ultima versione di TeamViewer può essere prelevata facendo riferimento a questa pagina. La versione gratuita di TeamViewer mostra una schermata che invita alla registrazione del prodotto al termine di ogni connessione o comunque ad ogni successivo avvio del programma.

Miller: “Nuovi attacchi worm per gli iPhone JB”

10 11 2009

Secondo l’esperto in sicurezza informatica Charlie Miller, gli utenti che hanno un iPhone jailbroken devono iniziare a preoccuparsi…

iphone-virus

Miller ancora una volta ha affermato che gli iPhone sbloccati perdono tutte le difese implementate da Apple:

Apple ha reso molto difficile penetrare in iPhone, ma il processo di jailbreak di fatto distrugge il modello di sicurezza di Cupertino rendendo lo smartphone vulnerabile. Non solo per l’abilitazione dell’SSH, ma anche per l’eliminazione della sandbox e della tecnica di data execution prevention (la prima impedisce al software di accedere ad altri programmi, la seconda di accedere ad aree di memoria riservate)

Ma non finisce qui, secondo Miller, infatti, nei prossimi mesi ci saranno tantissimi nuovi worm e attacchi che proveranno a penetrare negli iPhone jailbroken.

Ricordiamo che per evitare problemi di questo tipo è sufficiente cambiare la password seguendo questa guida.

Come cambiare password di root all’iPhone

10 11 2009

Nei giorni scorsi si è parlato molto dei possibili problemi di sicurezza relativi agli iPhone jailbroken, proprio per questo oggi vi spieghiamo come fare per modificare la password di root al proprio dispositivo.

passwordroot

Essendo la password di root dell’iPhone uguale per tutti (”alpine”) può risultare molto utile e soprattutto sicuro cambiarla dopo aver fatto il jailbreak.

Per farlo occorre installare da Cydia il pacchetto MobileTerminal e dopo averlo avviato seguire questi passi:

  • Loggarsi come amministratore mediante il comando:su root
  • Introdurre la password di root, di default alpine e lanciare il comandopasswd
  • Ora introdurre due volte la nuova password desiderata.

Ricordatevi che d’ora in avanti la password per l’accesso SSH all’iPhone è questa appena impostata!

La stessa procedura si potrebbe eseguire in remoto tramite SSH e un terminale, ad esempio Putty su Windows

NOTA: E’ bene aggiungere che se qualche applicazione dava per scontata la password di root come alpine questa applicazione adesso non funzionerà più adeguatamente.

Droid è il nuovo iPhone killer?

10 11 2009

Droid

Droid, lo smartphone targato Verizon e dotato di Android, è diventato famoso grazie alla campagna pubblicitaria iDon’t. Nello spot venivano sottolineate tutte le mancanze di iPhone, ovviamente sopperite dal nuovo Droid. Lo scorso venerdì il nuovo smartphone è finalmente apparso nei negozi statunitensi.

Il telefono, prodotto in stretta collaborazione da Verizon, Motorola e Google, è dotato di una fotocamera a 5 Megapixel con flash, di una tastiera full QWERTY e di un potente navigatore GPS. Dal punto di vista dell’hardware, di conseguenza, il dispositivo ha tutte le carte in regola per divenire il nuovo iPhone Killer.

Joshua Topolsky di Engadget ha avuto la possibilità di provare Droid con due settimane d’anticipo rispetto alla sua entrata sul mercato. A detta del giornalista, pur avendo una dotazione hardware migliore, Droid non potrà diventare un iPhone killer. Il melafonino, infatti, non sarà il dispositivo migliore sul mercato, ma è di certo il più visibile e il più desiderato. Si tratta di due elementi chiave per il commercio, i quali riescono a mettere in secondo piano qualsiasi innovazioni tecnologica.

Non è detto, tuttavia, che le cose non cambino in futuro: man mano che Android prende piede sul mercato ci sono sempre più sviluppatori disposti a sviluppare applicazioni ad hoc. Vista la sua caratteristica di essere multipiattaforma, Android potrebbe raggiungere un bacino di utenze potenzialmente più alto di quello di iPhone. Non ci resta che attendere le evoluzioni del mercato.

Speed Up Windows 7 – Ultimate Guide To Make Windows 7

9 11 2009

Windows 7 is Engineered for speed. Special attention has been given by the Windows 7 team for making Windows 7 faster than the previous operating systems. Windows 7 is much faster than Windows Vista, but even then most of us don’t get satisfied with it. There are many who still have their old PC. Installing Windows 7 on them wont be as soothing as they work with with XP and Even with latest hardware’s installed some users still long for more performance. At least if we don’t make it lightning fast we can optimize Windows 7 to the maximum possible extent and enjoy the maximum performance we could squeeze out from it. So for all the extra performance lovers, let me present you wit this Ultimate Guide To Speed Up Windows 7.

Speed Up Windows 7 - The Ultimate Guide To  Make Windows 7 Blazing FastI guarantee you that after following this guide and implementing the recommendations on your PC, you will really get the performance gain.

The bare Minimum Requirements You need To Run Windows 7

1) 1GHz processor (32- or 64-bit)
2) 1GB of main memory
3) 16GB of available disk space
4) Support for DX9 graphics with 128MB of memory (for the Aero interface)
5) A DVD – R/W drive

Even if you don’t have the DX 9 graphics card there is no problem because our target is performance not the ” Eyecandy ” . Of course if you need the aero experience you need a powerful graphics card for sure.

So lets startThe Ultimate Guide to Speed up Windows 7

  1. Speed Up the Windows 7 Boot Speed

    • Press [Win] + R or take the RUN option from the start menu.
    • Now type msconfig in there and press Enter Key to open up the System Configuration Window. Click on the Boot tab in there.
      You will see a box called Time out. This is the time (in sec) which the system waits for the user to select the operating system to boot to.
    • If you use only a single operating system (don’t dual boot) you can safely set the value to 0.
    • But if you have more than one operating system installed then set it to 3 or more (which ever is convenient).
    • Now after doing the above step click the ” Advanced Options ” button. The Boot Advanced Options Window will then pop up.
    • Tick the check box saying “Number of Processors”. Now click on the drop down box and select the maximum number of processor cores (might be 2 or more).
    • Press ” OK ” and also tick the ” No GUI Boot ” option too.
    • Click ” Apply “and then on ” OK ” and thats it.
  2. A simple tweak will help you to decrease the boot time of windows 7. You will be benified by this tweak only if you have a multiple core processor. These days most of the computers have a dual core or quad core or something better than that CPU’s.

  3. Disable the Aero Theme on Windows 7

    • Right Click on your Desktop and select ” Personalize ” click the Window Color Tab.
    • Uncheck the Box saying ” Enable Transparency ” and then click on ” Open classic appearance properties for more color options”.
    • Then a window will open up. Apply a Standard or Basic theme from it. The Standard Windows 7 theme is more preferred.
  4. The aero user interface certainly adds some ” Eyecandy ” to Windows 7 but certainly is a resource hog especially when, what you expect from windows 7 is more performance juice. Aero user interface squeezes your graphics or video card to its maximum. So why cant we just avoid the Windows 7 aero? if we care more about speed and performance in Windows 7. So Disabling the Aero in Windows 7 certainly adds an extra speed boost to it.

    Speed Up Windows 7 by disabling the aero user interface

    Disabling the aero theme alone in Windows 7 will really speed things up.

  5. Disabling the Unwanted Visual Effects in Windows 7 to Speed Up more

    • For this right click on ” Computer” and select “Properties” from the right click menu.
    • Click on ” Advanced System Settings ” from the left pane to open up the ” System Properties ” window.
    • Select the “Advanced” tab from it. Then Under ” Performance ” click ” Settings “. Choose ” Custom: ” Options From it.
    • Now untick all the options and select only the last four options (actually three only needed; you can untick the second option from the last four). See the screen shot if you have any doubt.
    • Now just logoff your system and turn logon.
  6. Even though we have tuned off the aero effects in Windows 7 still there are many unwanted visual effects that can be safely disabled to speed up windows 7 even more.

    Speeding Up Windows 7 by removing unwanted visual effects

    You will now notice the speed difference now.

  7. Disabling the Unwanted Services to Speed up Windows 7

  8. There are many services in windows 7 that we dont require for our daily use. There are some exceptional cases though. Services such as “print spooler” is only needed when we use a printer. If we use a printer only occasionally we can safely turn off that service in Windows 7 and turn it on only when we need to take a print.

    I have previously prepared a List of services in Windows 7 that can be safely set to manual / disabled.

    Disabling the unneeded services in Windows 7 can really speed up the system boot time.

  9. Disable the User account control (UAC) Feature in Windows 7

    • From the Control Panel open the ” User Accounts and Family Safety ” > User Account.
    • Click the User Account Control settings link.
    • Now just Drag the Slider towards “Never Notify”.
    • Click “OK” and Reboot your system.
  10. The User account control (UAC) feature in Windows 7 is very annoying though it says it can protect your computer from harmful virus activity etc. But if you are a daily user of your computer this windows 7 feature will be a total nuisance to you.

    To Disable and Turnoff UAC in Windows 7

    Speed UP Windows 7 by disabling User Account Control(UAC)

    Disabling UAC is for advanced users only i dont recommend doing it if not.

  11. Disabling the Search Indexing Feature in Windows 7

    • Right Click the “Computer” Icon in the desktop and select “Manage”.
    • Click “Services and Applications” in the “Computer Management” window.
    • Click on “Services”.
    • You can see a lot of services listed there. Look for “Windows Search” in that.
    • Right Click on “Windows Search” from the list and choose “Properties”.
    • The “Windows Search Properties Window” will open up. From “Startup type” click on the drop down menu and choose “Disabled”.
    • Click “Apply” then “OK” and thats it. The Windows 7 Serch Indexing Feature is now disabled.
  12. Most of the Windows 7 users do less searches in there system. The Search Indexing service in Windows 7 will index keeps track of the files so that they can be found quickly when asked at some other time. This feature is useful only if you perform frequent searches on your system.
    For occasional file searchers the Search Indexing service in Windows 7 is a total resource hog. It unwontedly eats up your system resources. What you need from windows 7 is maximum performance from it then i would certainly recommend you to disable this resource hogging Windows 7 Search Indexing Feature.

    To Disable the Search Indexing Feature in Windows 7

    Disable the Search Indexing Feature in Windows 7 to Speed up Windows 7

    If you want to completely disable the search indexing feature in Windows 7 you can set the Search Indexing Service to Manual (See the above method about disabling unwanted services).

  13. SetUp the Windows 7 Ready Boost Service for an Extra Speed Boost

    • To configure the Ready Boost Feature in Windows 7 you need to have a High Speed Flash/USB or Pendrive with you which is ready boost compatible.
    • After plugging you pendrive, open “Computer” > Right-click the on USB Drive/Pendrive > select “Ready Boost” tab > tick the “Use this device” checkbox.
    • You can configure how much space on your USB drive/ Pendrive to be used as Ram.
  14. The ready boost feature in Windows 7 will help you to use your flash drive or pendrive or USB drive as Ram there by improving the performance and speed of windows 7 greatly. You can certainly experience it when launching bulky applications such as Adobe Photoshop etc.

    Speed Up Windows 7 with Ready Boost

  15. Turn off Unused Windows 7 Features

    • Open up ” Programs and Features ” from Control Panel.
    • Click the ” Turn Windows features on or off ” from the left pane.
    • Now uncheck all the Feature that you don’t use in Windows 7 and restart the system for the changes to take effect.
  16. There are many feature in windows 7 that we often dont use. Disabling these unused features in Windows 7 will really help in speeding things up.

  17. Disable the Windows 7 Sidebar (Actually the Gadgets)

    • Right click on the sidebar and select ” Properties “.
    • On the properties windows untick the check box showing ” Start sidebar when Windows Starts “
    • From now on windows sidebar won’t start when windows 7 start up.
  18. Disabling the window 7 sidebar is defenitely help you to to gain a few seconds during start up time. There are many useful utilities such as the RocketDock etc. which are good application launchers.

    To Disable the Sidebar in Windows 7,

  19. Disable the Aero Peek and Aero Snap features in Windows 7

    • Open the Windows 7 ” Control Panel ” and double-click on ” Ease of Access Center ” icon.
    • Now click on the ” Make it easier to focus on tasks ” seen at the bottom in there
    • Now untick the check box saying ” Prevent windows from being automatically arranged when moved to the edge of the screen ” .
    • Right click on the Windows 7 taskbar and select ” Properties “.
    • Now untick the ” Use Aero Peek to preview the desktop ” option from there.
  20. Aero Snap will help you to maximize, minimize and resize the windows just by dragging and dropping it into the screen corners.

    To disable Aero Snap Feature in Windows 7,

    That will now disable the Aero Snap in Windows 7.

    Now To Disable the Aero Peek feature in Windows 7

    The Aero Peek feature in Windows 7 helps you to peek through all open windows by hiding all other windows and showing only the outlines of all windows. Aero Peek is similar to the ” Show Desktop ” Feature in XP and Vista.

    If you have followed step 3 then Aero Peek will be automatically disabled. If not,

    The aero peek feature will now be disabled in windows 7.

  21. Change the Power Plan To Maximum Performance

    • Double click the ” Power Options ” in the Control panel.
    • Click the down arrow showing ” Show Additional Plans ” to see the ” High Performance ” power plan
    • .

    • Now just activate the ” High Performance ” plan and thats it.
    • You may go for the advanced settings for further tweaking if you want.
  22. The Power settings in Windows 7 is not automatically set for maximum performance. By default the power plan in Windows 7 is set for a balanced performance with energy consumption on hardware. So you may not get the optimal performance from windows 7 if this is the case. So we need to change the power plan to High Performance Mode.

    Setting the Power Plan in Windows 7 To High Performance Mode

  23. Disable the Thumbnail Preview Feature to speed up File browsing in Windows 7

    • Double Click on ” Computer ” >click on the “Organize” drop-down menu and select the “Folder and Search options”
    • Under ‘Files and Folders’ section, go to the “View” tab and tick the check box showing “Always show icons, never thumbnails” checkbox.
  24. The thumbnail preview feature in Windows 7 will show the small thumbnails of the contents of a folder instead of showing it’s icon. But this feature really do take up some system resources. So by disabling the Thumbnail Preview feature in Windows 7 the file browsing in Windows 7 explorer can be speed up.

  29. Turn OFF Windows 7 Password Protection To save a few More Seconds!!!

  30. If you have set a password for accessing your user account in windows 7, then you need to enter it each and every time you logon to windows. Logging into windows automatically without entering any password will save you a few seconds more. If you are the only person who use your computer then i would recommend to turn this off. If that is not the case you can skip this step.

    How to Automatically Logon to Windows 7 without entering any username or password

  31. Turn OFF Windows 7 Screen Saver and Wallpaper

    • Right click on desktop and choose “Personalize”.
    • Click the Screen Saver link ” From the Screen Saver drop down menu, Set it to “None” and click “Apply” and then “OK”.
    • Now click on “Desktop Background” link.
    • From the “Location” drop down menu select “Solid Colors” and pick one color and click “OK”.
  32. In order to display the wallpaper and screen saver the system needs some memory. So by disabling those two we can save a few Mega Bytes of memory.

    To Disable The Screen Saver and Wallpaper in Windows 7,

  33. Disable Unwanted Start Up Items and Speed Up Windows 7 Start Up

    • Type ” msconfig ” in the “RUN” option from start menu press [Enter] to open up the System Configuration Utility.
    • Now navigate to the “StartUp” tab.
    • Untick the Entries which are not needed
  34. This really matters when you have installed a lot of softwares on your PC. Many software such as AcdSee will run services such as device detector etc during the system start up. These are of no use actually for most windows users. So preventing such services from starting up during the start up of windows 7 can result in quicker start Ups. This will actually save some seconds during windows 7 start up.

  35. Disable Unwanted System Sounds in Windows 7

    • Type mmsys.cpl in RUN From the Windows 7 Startmenu search box and press [Enter].
    • Navigate to the “Sounds” tab.
    • Now from under “Sound Scheme:” select “No Sounds” > Click “Apply” > “OK”.
    • You can keep some of your favorite sounds turned on if you want, but sounds played during the Windows 7 start up, shutdown, Logon, logoff, start navigation etc should be set to none if you want some real speed boost.
  36. In order to play the sounds you hear in windows 7, system resources are being utilized. So if you can disable these sound effects you can gain some speed and also free some system resources too.

    To disable the system sounds in Windows 7,
    disabling unwanted sounds in Windows 7 to Speed Up

Thats it following all these steps will certainly boost the speed and performance of your windows 7 operating system.

Quali vostri dati vengono memorizzati sui server Google?

9 11 2009

Si chiama Google Dashboard ed è una nuova funzionalità introdotta oggi da Google, che consente di gestire da un unico punto di accesso tutte le informazioni associate al proprio account, modificando le impostazioni, gestendo i servizi.

Attraverso la Dashboard, che è stata sviluppata in Europa dai team di Monaco e Zurigo, è possibile ad esempio modificare le impostazioni della posta o le modalità di salvataggio della cronologia Web.

La nuova “dashboard”, termine che in italiano può essere tradotto come “cruscotto”, “pannello di controllo”, consente anche di verificare quali dati, relativi alla propria identità ed alle attività espletate in Rete, sono in possesso del colosso di Mountain View. Tra le informazioni consultabili, infatti, vi è anche la lista delle ricerche effettuate utilizzando il motore di ricerca ed un’opzione che consente di annullarne, in futuro, la memorizzazione e quindi la conservazione sui server di Google.

Più prodotti Google l’utente è solito impiegare, maggiore è il quantitativo di dati che i server della società fondata da Page e Brin memorizzeranno: cronologia delle ricerche, posta elettronica, blog e siti informativi consultati, video visualizzati su YouTube, attività, elenchi di acquisti, “news alerts”. La nuova “dashboard” offre una panoramica completa su queste informazioni.
Va comunque rammentato che Google conserverà informazioni relative alle operazioni espletate utilizzando i propri servizi solo se l’utente, possessore di un account, risulta “loggato”.

Google, da parte sua, vuole sottolineare come la “dashboard” rappresenti un ulteriore sforzo nell’intento di fornire agli utenti gli strumenti più utili per gestire tutti i dati personali.

Windows 7 Service Configurations

9 11 2009

www.BlackViper.com: Windows 7 Service Configurations

Introduction

To continue my fine tradition of optimizing MS’s latest OS, I have here my findings to date.

Before adjusting your service settings, ensure that your system has already installed all updates by “checking now” for any available updates via Windows Update. At this time, it is best for you to ensure that all services are set to the default values before updating your system.

Breakdown of all changes to date: Windows 7 Information Changelog.

I cannot possibly test all configurations extensively (meaning, each persons specific computer needs), but what I can offer is what “works for me” and the obstacles I have came across so you do not have to discover them on your own. If information on this page needs a revision or expanded, please check out the forums.

An * (asterisk) indicates changes from the default

Two ** (asterisks) indicates you can add or remove this service by:

  • Head to Start
  • Select Control Panel
  • Select Programs
  • Select Programs and Features
  • Select Turn Windows Features on or off

Three *** (asterisks) indicates they are installed with Windows Live Essentials

Notes for a Happier Computer and User

  • Do not use “msconfig” to disable services, type “services.msc” in the Run box instead or check this FAQ!
  • Before disabling any service, check out the service information about each by selecting the service name links provided.
  • Service settings are global, meaning changes apply to all users.
  • All of these services are “Standard” with Windows 7 and installed by default, by Add/Remove Windows Features, or installed via Windows Live Essentials. If you discover a service that is not listed here, another application, driver or program installed them. A few of the more common ones are listed here.
  • WLAN Autoconfig service is required for normal operation of your wireless network card. It is listed here as Manual due to most desktops not needing wireless access, but if you do have a wireless network card installed, it will be in Automatic by default.
  • Still unsure? Put your setting to “Manual” or the listing under “Safe.” Manual allows Windows 7 to start the service when it needs to (or when ever it feels like it), but not at boot up. Depending on your configuration, not all services will start when required while in “Manual” mode. If you find you need a service, place it in Automatic.
  • After adjusting your service settings, reboot your computer.
  • Before posting your question on the forums, see if your question has been addressed in the FAQ!
  • Viewing Instructions: If the information is hard to read, please check out your viewing options.

Table Header Information

  • The columns are sortable. Select the column header to sort by that field. (JavaScript Required)
  • DEFAULT ~ What MS thinks should be running on Windows 7.
  • “Safe” Configuration ~ This is the configuration that 95% of the people will be able to use with little or no side effects. It will also minimizes the amount of “errors” that is reported in the Event Viewer. This does not guarantee it will work for you, but if adjusting your services scares you, this configuration would be a good starting point.
    • 19 service settings have been changed from the default annotated by an (*) asterisk.
  • “Tweaked” ~ This is the configuration that I have developed to reduce the “Safe” services started, but maintain system security. This does not guarantee it will work for you.
    • 57 service settings have been changed from the default annotated by an (*) asterisk.
    • This configuration is a system that is still able to perform many LAN networking functions, such as file and print sharing, HomeGroup access and uses wireless networking (laptop) plus leaves several security related “features” like the Windows Defender, Windows Firewall and Windows Update active.
    • This configuration is not for a Windows Media Center PC. In this case, use “Safe”.
  • “Bare-bones” ~ WARNING!! ~ This configuration disables many built in features of Windows 7 as well as several security features.
    • 85 service settings have been changed from the default annotated by an (*) asterisk.
    • This configuration is not for a system that is directly connected to the internet as Windows Defender, Windows Firewall and Windows Update are disabled!
    • This configuration is not for a laptop system as wireless networking (as well as Defender and Firewall) are disabled and will not be able to counter attacks while roaming on some random wireless connection outside of the home.
    • This configuration is not for a system that internal network attacks are an issue. For example: Multiple PC’s with multiple family members and inexperienced users. For this situation, I highly recommend “Safe” to ensure network security and Windows Update compatibility.
    • This is not for a system that provides networked resources, such as printers, Media Center, and WMP library to other LAN connected computers.
    • Use this configuration at your own risk. It is only provided here as a reference for me to adjust my system setting. If you tweak your Windows 7 OS, use “Safe” unless you read and understand what you are doing.

Configuration Information

  • Automatic ~ With a service in this state, it will start at boot time. Some services, when no longer required, will also automatically stop when not needed. If you find you do not need a service, place it into Manual or Disabled.
  • Automatic (Delayed Start) ~ With a service in this state, it will start just after boot time. Some services, when no longer required, will also automatically stop when not needed. If you find you do not need a service, place it into Manual or Disabled.
  • Manual ~ Manual mode allows Windows to start a service when needed. However, very few services will start up when required in Manual mode. If you find you need a service, place it into Automatic.
  • Disabled ~ This setting will stop a service from starting, even if needed. Errors in the Event Viewer will show up complaining of that fact. Some services, while Disabled, will constantly complain. However, this situation is taken care of if placed in Manual. The service descriptions identifies those that should be in Manual vice Disabled.
  • “Started” ~ A service that either set to Manual or Automatic that is running by default at or shortly after boot time.
  • “Not Started” ~ A service set into Automatic that is not running by default at or shortly after boot time.
  • “Not Available” ~ A service that does not apply to the particular version.
  • “Uninstalled” ~ The ability to uninstall a service that I recommend to be removed by using Add/Remove Windows Features.

Service Dependency Abbreviation Information

  • S ~ Windows 7 Starter
  • HB ~ Windows 7 Home Basic
  • HP ~ Windows 7 Home Premium
  • P ~ Windows 7 Professional
  • U ~ Windows 7 Ultimate
  • E ~ Windows 7 Enterprise

Service Default Registry Entries

  • These entries are exported directly from the registry of a default Windows 7 installation.
  • They are in the .reg file format (many entries are in hex notation), not as you would actually view the content via regedit.exe.
  • The particular location extracted is under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\
