Speed your browser by changing your DNS
Most people use the default DNS
settings provided by their ISP, and
while they are usually sufficient
for most purposes, there are
plenty of free options out there,
like OpenDNS and Google DNS.
Namebench is a free app that
checks to see whether your
current settings are optimized and,
if not, which free option is best for
you. Here's how to use it:
Download and install Namebench. DOWNLOAD HERE
Fire it up and choose your settings.
Keep the top two boxes checked. If
you're concerned about network
censorship, check the third box,
and if you want to help the
developers, check the last box. You
can tweak the rest if you're
outside U.S. or want to experiment
with different browsers.
Click Start Benchmark and wait
while Namebench runs its tests. It
should take several minutes. A
browser tab should pop open when
Namebench is done and give you a
list of DNS servers and how much
faster they are than the one
you're currently using, unless
yours are already the fastest
possible.
Namebench does not change your
settings, but it's generally pretty
easy to do it yourself. Check with
the instructions you got from your
ISP to set up your modem and/or
router and just substitute the DNS
addresses you received from
Namebench for the addresses given
by your ISP. It's best to do this
with your router, as it will assign
that DNS address for all the
devices attached to it.
That's it! This can dramatically
improve your browsing speed, and
it's fairly easy to work through.

How to encrypt your external drives (Locking your flash drives)
A lot of us that are into computer
security are always meticulous
about the security of our data. We
provide passwords on our PC. Some
of us go to the extent of creating
BIOS password, syskey, and then
the windows login password. Some
with extra paranoia will even use
softwares like folder lock or PGP to
encrypt their files and folders.
This
is really good and I am also a big
fan of security because I implement
it a lot but when I become the
attacker, I hate security.
I realized that all these accounting
bank managers that are so careful
with their data and some other
individuals also will just provide all
these security on their computers.
Forgetting the fact that some of
those information are in their flash
drives, they just drop their flash
drives carelessly sometimes.
Sometimes it may not be a careless
drop, you may get a physical
attack and your flash drive will be
stolen from you.
Here I will show you a way to
provide complete security to the
data on your flash drives and
other external drives.
You do not need to download any
software.
Note: This tutorial is for windows
users only
Follow these steps to encrypt your
drive:
1. Plug in the external drive into
the USB port
2. Go to my computer and right-
click the drive to be encrypted as
shown below
Now click "Turn on Bitlocker"
3. You will see something like this
Click the first check button and
provide the password you want for
your drive then click next
4. Our computers know we are
likely to forget some things so
they provide us with backup
option. Save a recovery file and if
suits you to print it then do that
and proceed
Now there is a big question for
you.
Are you ready to encrypt? If
you're with me on this then
continue
Grab a snack and chill for the
encryption to be over.
And that's it. The encryption is
over
To test this, you can unplug your
drive and plug again.
Now you
have to type your password. I hope
this post helps you security

You can optionally sign a JAR file with your electronic "signature." Users who verify your signature can grant your JAR-bundled software security privileges that it wouldn't ordinarily have. Conversely, you can verify the signatures of signed JAR files that you want to use.
This lesson shows you how to use the tools provided in the JDK to sign and verify JAR files:

Signing JAR Files
In this section, you'll learn how to use the JDK™ tools to digitally sign your JAR files
Signing JAR Files
You use the JAR Signing and Verification Tool to sign JAR files. You invoke the JAR Signing and Verification Tool by using the jarsigner command, so we'll refer to it as "Jarsigner" for short.
To sign a JAR file, you must first have a private key. Private keys and their associated public-key certificates are stored in password-protected databases called keystores . A keystore can hold the keys of many potential signers. Each key in the keystore can be identified by an alias which istypically the name of the signer who owns the key. The key belonging to Rita Jones might have the alias "rita", for example.
The basic form of the command for signing a JAR file is
jarsigner jar-file alias
In this command:
*. jar-file is the pathname of the JAR file that's to be signed.
*. alias is the alias identifying the private key that's to be used to sign the JAR file, and the key's associated certificate.
The Jarsigner tool will prompt you for the passwords for the keystore and alias.
This basic form of the command assumes that the keystore to be used is in a file named .keystore in your home directory. It will create signature and signature block files with names x.SF and x.DSA respectively, where x is the first eight letters of the alias, all converted to upper case. This basic command will overwrite the original JAR file withthe signed JAR file.
In practice, you may want to use this command in conjunction with one or more of these options, which must precede the jar-file pathname:
Jarsigner Command Options
Option Description
-keystore url Specifies a keystore to be used if you don't want to use the .keystore default database.
-storepass password Allows you to enter the keystore's password on the command line rather than be prompted for it.
-keypass password Allows you to enter your alias's password on the command line rather than be prompted for it.
-sigfile file Specifies the base name for the .SF and .DSA filesif you don't want the base name to be taken from your alias. file must be composed only of upper case letters (A-Z), numerals (0-9), hyphen (-), and underscore (_).
-signedjar file Specifies the name of the signed JAR file to be generated if you don't want the original unsigned file to be overwritten with the signed file.
Example
Let's look at a couple of examples of signing a JARfile with the Jarsigner tool. In these examples we will assume:
*. your alias is "johndoe".
*. the keystore you want to use is in a file named"mykeys" in the current working directory.
*. the keystore's password is "abc123".
Under these assumptions, you could use this command to sign a JAR file named app.jar :
jarsigner -keystore mykeys -storepass abc123 app.jar johndoe
You will be prompted for the keystore password. Because this command doesn't make use of the -sigfile option, the .SF and .DSA files it creates would be named JOHNDOE.SF and JOHNDOE.DSA . Because the command doesn't use the -signedjar option, the resulting signed file will overwrite the original version of app.jar .
Let's look at what would happen if you used a different combination of options:
jarsigner -keystore mykeys -sigfile SIG -signedjar SignedApp.jar app.jar johndoe
This time, you would be prompted to enter the passwords for both the keystore and your alias because the passwords aren't specified on the command line. The signature and signature block files would be named SIG.SF and SIG.DSA , respectively, and the signed JAR file SignedApp.jar would be placed in the current directory. The original unsigned JAR file would remain unchanged.
