WebBrowserPassView

WebBrowserPassView is a password recovery tool that reveals the passwords stored by the following Web browsers: Internet Explorer (Version 4.0 - 8.0), Mozilla Firefox (All Versions), Google Chrome, and Opera. This tool can be used to recover your lost/forgotten password of any Website, including popular Web sites, like Facebook, Yahoo, Google, and GMail, as long as the password is stored by your Web Browser.
After retrieving your lost passwords, you can save them into text/html/csv/xml file, by using the 'Save Selected Items' option (Ctrl+S).


System Requirements And Limitations

  • This utility works on any version of Windows, starting from Windows 2000, and up to Windows 7, including 64-bit systems. Older versions of Windows (Windows 98/ME) are not supported, because this utility is a Unicode application.
  • Currently, WebBrowserPassView cannot retrieve the passwords if they are encrypted with a master password. Support for master password will probably be added in future versions.
  • Currently, WebBrowserPassView cannot retrieve passwords from external hard-drive. Support for that might be added in future versions.
  • On Internet Explorer 7.0-8.0, the passwords are encrypted with the URL of the Web site, so WebBrowserPassView uses the history file of Internet Explorer to decrypt the passwords. If you clear the history of Internet Explorer, WebBrowserPassView won't be able to decrypt the passwords.
  • On Google Chrome - passwords originally imported from Internet Explorer 7.0-8.0, cannot be decrypted.

Using WebBrowserPassView

WebBrowserPassView doesn't require any installation process or additional DLL files. In order to start using it, simply run the executable file - WebBrowserPassView.exe After running it, the main window of WebBrowserPassView displays the list of all Web browser passwords found in your system. You can select one or more passwords and then copy the list to the clipboard (Ctrl+C) or export them into text/xml/html/csv file (Ctrl+S).

BitMate - BitTorrent for the Less Privileged

BitTorrent is a hugely popular peer-to-peer file sharing system. In countries where broadband Internet is widespread, BitTorrent accounts for as much as 70% of the overall Internet traffic. In contrast, in developing countries, BitTorrent is almost unusable on the typically low bandwidth dialup connections and accounts for less than 10% of the overall traffic.

BitMate is designed to enhance the performance of hosts with low-bandwidth connections. Importantly, BitMate enhances the performance of low-bandwidth nodes without cheating, circumventing the fairness policy of BitTorrent or adversely affecting the performance of other peers.

BitMate outperforms vanilla BitTorrent by as much as 70% in download performance, while at the same time improving upload contribution by as much as 1000%! BitMate also outperforms strategic clients like BitTyrant in low-bandwidth conditions by as much as 60% in download performance (without cheating). bitmate1.jpg

BitMate Client

BitMate is a BitTorrent client fully compliant with the BitTorrent protocol and compatible with existing BitTorrent clients. BitMate is implemented using azureus (Vuze) code base. We have subtly changed the underlying mechanism (GPL'ed) without changing the UI or the codebase that deals with the Vuze platform.

BitMate is designed to specifically improve the performance of low-bandwidth peers (5-20 KB/sec); in our target conditions, Bitmate can almost double your download performance. At the same time, it performs at least as well as the traditional BitTorrent clients for high-bandwidth peers (but you'll see most performance benefit for low-bandwidth peers in the developing-world).

Design

A BitMate client achieves good performance under low-bandwidth conditions by the following key design principles:
  • Minimize Wasted Goodwill:
    A BitMate client minimizes "wasted" goodwill. Instead of trying to earn goodwill from high-bandwidth nodes, which rarely reciprocate due to a bandwidth mismatch, a BitMate client utilizes its limited bandwidth to earn goodwill with other low-bandwidth peers with which it can establish the most mutually beneficial tit-for-tat connections. As a result, low-bandwidth clients talk to each other more often, helping each other download faster. In doing so, BitMate clients also reduce the arbitrage between their upload and download bandwidth, minimizing the element of free-riding associated with low-bandwidth peers.
  • Don't Compete Unnecessarily:
    Instead of competing with each other to download the same blocks from high-bandwidth peers, BitMate clients download distinct blocks of a file (that other low-bandwidth nodes have not already downloaded) from high bandwidth peers. This improves performance since low-bandwidth clients download from (reluctant) high-bandwidth peers only when necessary. In essence, by avoiding competition for the same blocks, low-bandwidth BitMate clients "pool" their bandwidth when talking to high bandwidth clients. This also improves fairness since it minimizes the data gratuitously downloaded by low-bandwidth clients from higher bandwidth peers -- instead encouraging mutually beneficial tit-for-tat connections between matching low-bandwidth peers.
  • Avoid Redundant Downloads:
    A BitMate client is watchful when downloading data from other clients and only downloads from those peers that have it unchoked at the time of download. As a result, a low-bandwidth BitMate node makes faster progress in stringing together a piece and avoids redundant downloads due to "premature chokes" by higher bandwidth peers. This also reduces the element of free riding by not downloading from nodes that have choked a low-bandwidth node.
  • Share Aggressively:
    A BitMate client does not wait for a piece to download completely before sharing it with other peers. Instead, BitMate implements pipelined uploads to enable uploading by low-bandwidth clients that are otherwise struggling to string together a piece in the face of repeated chokes by other peers. As a result, a BitMate client can start earning goodwill with other peers (by uploading blocks of a piece) quickly while traditional clients are struggling to string together a piece before starting upload
  • Minimize Cross-ISP Traffic:
    BitMate is designed to minimize cross-ISP traffic without adversely affecting the performance of a low-bandwidth client. However, unlike previous work like Ono, which bias peer selection solely based on the proximity of the peers, BitMate matches peer locality as well as bandwidth. The goal of our work is not to find local peers that may offer better bandwidth due to better path properties, but to find bandwidth-matched peers that may also help reduce congestion on the upstream link of a developing-world ISP.
Overall, a low-bandwidth BitMate client prefers stable, bandwidth-matched peers over the greedy strategy of vanilla BitTorrent. Instead of wasting optimistic unchokes on high bandwidth peers, a BitMate client optimistically unchokes those peers that have a similar low-bandwidth. As a result, a BitMate client invests its scarce upload bandwidth on peers that are most likely to reciprocate. At the same time, BiTMate leaves the tit-for-tat reciprocal unchoke policy untouched to uphold the fairness of BitTorrent. This leads to both increased performance and fairness since low-bandwidth clients can quickly form mutually beneficial peer-to-peer connections.

簡單幾步驟 關閉Windows Server的UAC

使用者帳戶控制(UAC)Windows Server 2008Windows Server 2008 R2Windows 7以及Windows Vista之中的一項機制,它提供了可能由不同的程式所呼叫的管理工作之間的互動通知。安裝在伺服器上的微軟與非微軟的應用程式都會受到UAC的影響。檔案是否有使用UAC的最明顯指標就是捷徑上的盾牌圖示(參見圖 A)
圖 A

Windows Server 2008Windows 7UAC功能的確很棒,但我卻不認為僅供作一般用途系統使用的伺服器平台有此需要。你可以在Group Policy Object (GPO)之中設定三個數值,就可以設定電腦帳戶不要執行UAC。這些數值位在Computer Configuration | Policies | Windows Settings | Security Settings | Local Policies | Security Options,它們具有以下數值:
User Account Control: Admin Approval Mode之中提升對管理者的提醒
User Account Control: 偵測應用程式安裝與提升的提醒
User Account Control: 開啟Admin Approval Mode
這些數值分別被設定成在關閉電腦帳戶的UAC時,無需提醒提升、關閉與啟動。這個GPO顯示在圖B,數值則是用來設定組態元件。
圖 B

在此範例之中,這個名為Filter-GPO-ServerOSGPO是透過電腦帳戶的安全群組來設定過濾器。最好養成好習慣將GPO設定到包含有伺服器電腦帳戶的安全群組,並且將一個設定給特定的工作站帳戶。這些數值需要電腦重新啟動才能夠夠過Group Policy啟用。此外,UAC的盾牌圖示仍然不會消失,但是後續對應用程式的存取將再也不會提示UAC
