Internet Error Codes
Q:
What do all those error codes (like 404) mean?
A:
It happens to all of us. We're surfing along, and up comes an error. What do all those error codes mean? Here's a quick rundown of the most common:
400 - Bad Request - You probably typed in a URL wrong, the server has no clue what you're looking for, or you aren't allowed to have access. Usually, it's a matter of the URL being typing in wrong. Maybe you mixed upper and lowercase letters or something.
401 - Unauthorized Request - you tried to get to something on the web server you're not allowed to play with. In other words, you aren't on the party list.
403 - Forbidden - You can't access the page. You may not have access (it may require a password), or it may be blocked from your domain.
404 - Not Found - The page you were trying to look at was not found on the server. This is probably the most common error you'll come across. What has probably happened is that the web page you were going to has been removed or re-named.
500 - Internal error - Usually caused by a CGI error. You fill out a form, but the script used to process it is not working properly.
503 - Service Unavailable - The server may be overloaded, down, or have other similar problems. Try later.

Enabling right click on sites that disable it!
Lots of web sites have disabled the right click function of the mouse button... it's really, really annoying. This is done so that you don't steal (via right-click->save picture) their photos or images or any other goodies. Unfortunately, it disables ALL right-click functionality: copy, paste, open in new window.
It's easy to change, assuming your using IE 6:
QUOTE
Click "Tools"->"Internet Options"
Click the "Security" tab
Click "Custom Level"
Scroll down to the "Scripting" section
Set "Active Scripting" to "disable"
Click "Ok" a couple of times.
You'll probably want to turn this back to "enable" when your done... 'cause generally the javascript enhances a website.
Enjoy!

Magic With Javascript
Little trick:
Goto any website with pictures showing, even this page will do. It works for Opera aswell. Just copy and paste the following into the address bar:
javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.getElementsByTagName("img"); DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position='absolute'; DIS.left=(Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5)+"px"; DIS.top=(Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5)+"px"}R++}setInterval('A()',50); void(0);

Note Change In Notepad
This actually works. It will not crash your computer, it just breaks Notepad in that it causes it to display very oddly. No perm damage comes of the following steps.
Here's how to do it:
1. Open up Notepad (not Wordpad, not Word or any other word processor)
2. Type in this sentence exactly (without quotes): " this app can break "
3. Save the file to your hard drive.
4. Close Notepad
5. Open the saved file by double clicking it.
Instead of seeing your sentence, you should see a series of squares. For whatever reason, Notepad can't figure out what to do with that series of characters and breaks
Again, it doesn't crash the app or anything, it's just a funny little twise of fate/unintended feature

Increase Your Keyboard Speed
Did you know that you can customize some of your keyboard settings? Does that sound like something you would like to check out?
Well, if you do, go to Start, Control Panel and click on the Printers and Other Hardware, then Keyboard (for XP). If you have an older version of Windows, go to Start, Control Panel and look for the Hardware icon or even just one that says Keyboard.
Once you click on that, the Keyboard Properties message box will come up on your screen. Under the Character Repeat section, you can choose how long, or short, you would like before a character (a letter, etc.) repeats itself when you're holding down a key. Maybe sometimes you're typing along and a double letter somehow shows up. It may have,because you held onto that one key just a little too long. Well, if that seems to happen to you a lot, you can change the repeat delay to a longer amount of time, so you will have more time to move onto the next letter or word. Just use the arrow slider to move in either direction.
Next, you can check on the repeat rate of your keyboard. If you sometimes hold down a key for soooooooooooooooooooo long, it may take forever for that one letter to repeat itself. You can fix that by moving the arrow slider to the Fast side. Or, if you like it slower, you can move the slide to the Slow side. Once you have it where you would like it, you can test the rate to see how fast, or slow, it will go.
The last thing you can do is play with the cursor blink rate. Depending on how fast you would like your cursor to blink at you when it's standing still, you can have it blink at a fast rate, a medium rate or even no rate at all.
When you've made all your changes, just hit OK and they will take effect. Pretty cool, huh?
