Hi,

After a long time, I am back. I have decided to update this blog more frequently. Since I am in hurry the only point to add here for today is

If firewall of your system is on, you cannot access your system's drive even with Administrative rights in Domain. Till you enable file/Printer sharing in your system. after enabling it, port 137 (Port for UNC) will be opened in your system and administrator or anybody with proper rights can easily access your system with \\SYSTEM-NAME\C$ etc.

Windows Registry

After a long time again I have decided to send few posts maybe they be useful to some other people. I will try to send such posts more frequently. Please read my Windows Registry Post. I have sent a copy to CodeProject with Windows Registry link. Take a look.

Today is 8th October. One Year is passed from Sad memory of destructive earthquake at northern areas of Pakistan. Despite of having so many helpful hands I think poor people of those areas still have lots of problems! No one of us can have any idea about what they are suffering from now. I had done what I could do for them and now the only thing that I can do is asking patience for them from God.

Let's hope for a better tomorrow for all of them.
