How To Hide Files Like a Super Villain | MakeUseOf.com

  • Open up a command window (Start > Run> “cmd” > OK).


    Type “attrib”, followed by a space. Type your file’s name and path, within quotes, like this: “C:\Documents and Settings\Tim\My Documents\hidden.tc”, followed by another space. Type “+s +h”.

  • This marks the file as both a “system” file and a “hidden” file. The file still exists, but will not appear in Explorer, even if you have “Show hidden files and folders” enabled. To undo this, enter the same command, instead with “-s –h”. You can do this with just about any file or folder.

WebWorkerDaily » Archive Free VPN Solutions for Securing Your Public Wi-Fi Sessions «

There are also a number of good free VPN offerings that will keep public Wi-Fi users safe. I’ll run through several of the best ones in this post. If you use free Wi-Fi service at all, definitely go with a VPN. It runs totally in the background after you sign in, and gives you a private, encrypted tunnel for your data and communications when on a public wireless connection.

10 Ways to Take Stunning Portraits

Today and tomorrow I want to talk about taking Portraits that are a little out of the box. You see it’s all very well and good to have a portrait that follows all the rules - but it hit me as I was surfing on Flickr today that often the most striking portraits are those that break all the rules.

I want to look at some ways to break out of the mold and take striking portraits by breaking (or at least bending) the rules and adding a little randomness into your portrait photography. I’ll share ten of these tips today and a further ten tomorrow (update: you can see the 2nd part here).
