How would you guys block portable Apps like Skype,firefox,Kproxy and gtalk etc etc ?

Hi,
how would you guys block portable Apps like Skype,firefox,Kproxy and gtalk etc etc ?
it just runs from USB / Local HDD .
obviously I could just block all USB ports but is there a better way?

Hi,
Preventing users from running portable applications can be done through:
Configuring specific User Account Control Settings
Software Restriction Policies
AppLocker
More information, please check this similar thread:
How to block portable application & prevent installation on Active Directory?

How would you determine the total ram used by applets?

hi guys;
I have 2 applets.
One applet runs in a browswer. - in the microsoft jvm.
Another applet on another browser (or another page) - in the sun plugin.
How would you guys determine the total RAM (not just heap memory) used by these applets.
my strategy would be to open up the browser. and look at the memory next to that internet explorer process. Then I would open up another browser with applet and see total memory taken. Then I would subtract to determine the difference.
Does this sound correct?
Each applet has multiple jar files associated with it.
Stev

What you really should do is test your applet on a bunch of machines, like a 32 meg ram win 98, 64 meg ram win NT, and a 256 meg ram win 2000, and then give them a performance report under the different configurations. That's really what they're after (probably)

What Would You Guys Do?

I make this summer video type thing for my friends and family every year. This year I wanted to have something at the beginning to really make it cool so this is what I was thinking... I wanted to do a 1 shot opening set in high speed from getting up in the morning to getting to the lake we always go to... The difficult part of this is that I want to have the credits of the people who are in the movie appear on objects as I drive on the street like you see the street signs say a persons name with there picture, or I pick up a soda can and its not the brand name on there its a persons name and picture. So my basic question is how would you guys do this? I assume shake would be the best program for placing the text and pictures on the objects and making them look real, I'm just not as good with shake as I am with Final Cut Studio 2. I have only had shake for a little while now , and dont really know what the best way to do this would be.
Also i am using a camera that records on mini dv tape just so you guys know, I have heard some people say that changes the way you work with shake a bit.

Hmm I would suggest key framing a corner pin. Or if you want better results use tracking. Take a text node in the image section and then add a corner pin which is in the transform section. To keyframe it press the button with the key on it under the video. Once your done get and over node and put the text in the first input and the video in the second. If you look in the tutorial pdf you go with shake it will tell you how to do this with a tutorial replacing a bus sign. Hope that helped.

How would you justify extra cost of Windows Pro Version

Well remote desktop access is only possible in the Pro version. You are also future proofing your organisation when it gets big enough to warrant AD control. The cost of Pro when bought with a PC is only very little compared to the £100+ you seem to get charged when you upgrade at a later date.
With shopping around I see no price difference between Home and Pro PC's (in fact with the host of special offers at the moment they seem to be cheaper...

So recently my friend had been asking me why would we need to purchase a pro edition if we are not running an AD. How would you guys justify the extra cost of purchasing Pro version of windows compared to home editions in a small business environment to your management?

How would you find the pitch period of a sound signal?

Hi
I have a few questions and i would like if somebody could help me even with the smallest comment on this.
How would someone be successfully estimate the pitch period (fundamental frequency) of a 5 second sound file?How would you successfully distinguish the voiced from the unvoiced parts and how would you make sure you dont mix voiced/unvoiced sections? Finally how can you find the exact points where the pitch is at its peak throughout the signal?
Any help/comment/suggesion would be much appreciated

Hello Madgreek,
After some thought I think I may have come up with an algorithm for what we have discussed. Basically, you are interested in knowing the time intervals over which you can observe any given frequency in your signal. As you had suggested, you can examine small windows of your signal and perform FFTs on each of the small windows to determine what frequency content is contained in that window. By examining all of the windows, you will see when particular frequencies are prevalent in the original signal. You'd want to use the smallest allowable window to give you the most resolution, but one that is large enough to cover an entire period of the lowest frequency (so that you don't miss this frequency).
I have attached an example program that performs this operation. The example performs this analysis on an array that represents audio data. I am basically performing multiple FFTs (for each window) and stacking these FFTs in time to form a 3D plot. By examining the 3D plot, I can then see when in time my frequencies of interest are at their peaks. Rather than graphing these plots, you may work out a different algorithm for programmatically determining and logging these peaks and times. I hope this is what you were looking for!

Disable the pop-up message box "How would you like to open this file" to open pdf file??

Hi,
is there any way i can stop the pop-up box displaying to open pdf file in sharepoint document library? Right now whenever i am trying to open pdf file, asking "how would you like to open" Read only or edit mode. currently MIME Type is setup
but still pop-up message box.
Thanks in advanced!

Hi ,
As far as I know, This is a default feature. and is not recommended to delete or deactivate this pop up.
This is a feature of office and there is a dll called owssupp.dll which is responsible for getting the popup to open.
You can go to IE tools> addon settings and deactivate the above dll (sharepoint open document class). But if you do so, then the other office office files which are word/excel/pptx etc.. would aslo gets affected and they also wont get the popup.
Hope this helps.

Problem with the Photomail option within " How would you like to share ?"

I have a PC with Windows 7 and Elements 10 installed. For the past couple of days, when I attempt to share photos using the Photomail option under "How would you like to share ?" column , after selecting the recipient, I get an error message dialogue box that says : "Elements 10 Organizer has stopped working - a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". Then the Organizer stays closed down until I reopen it. However, I am able to share photos using the "Email Attachment" option.
What could be wrong with the "Photomail" option ?
Thanks

Hi,
I have seen this sort of failure caused by a permissions problem.
Try this:
Close elements
Create a shortcut on your desktop which goes direct to the organizer
Right click on that shortcut and select "Run as Administrator" (even if you are an administrator)
Now try your Photomail again
If it does work, you only need to do this once, it seems to correct itself after that.
Good luck
Brian

How do you shut off the apps that are running? Before the update you hit the button twice then it would showing all the apps and u can then shut them off.

How do you shut off the apps? Before update I just hit the side button twice then it would show all the apps. Then I would shut them off.

http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
View running apps.
Double-click the Home button to reveal the multitasking display. Swipe left
or right to see more. To switch to another app, tap it.
Quit an app.
If an app isn’t working properly, you can force it to quit. Drag the app up from the
multitasking display. Then try opening the app again

How would you detect a ground like this:

I have made racing games in the past, but never a side scrolling type.
Im trying to make one similar to this: http://www.gamesfreak.net/games/Cyclo-Maniacs_3730.html
But how would you keep the player on the ground? well not stuck to the ground because we would want the player to be able to use things like ramps.
Would it be a hit test? hmmmmmmmm Any ideas? anyone.

How would you make an effect like this?

Hi! I'm new to the forums, but hopefully it's ok if I start this new discussion. I'm very new to Photoshop as well (newbie).
Here is the image: http://sffbookreview.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/life-of-pi-banner.png
How would you make the image on the right - with the watercolor painting crop effect of the tiger? Also, how would you make the font on the left gradually turn to orange?
Thanks! Your help is much appreciated.

Hi there,
Here's a really quick tutorial on how to add the mask and gradient text over the image of a tiger.
Masking the Image
1) Open your image of the tiger. There should be two layers in your layers panel: the image and a white background.
2) With the tiger layer selected, click on the icon marked below in the layers panel to create a layer mask.
3) Being sure you have the mask you just created selected, paint with black using the brush tool to mask out the image. In your layers panel, if you look at the mask icon, you will see the areas where you were painting (on the canvas) change to black. Use a variety of brushes to recreate the effect in your example image.
Creating Text with a Gradient Effect
1) Use the Type Tool to create your basic text and reposition it on the page with the Move Tool.
2) In the layers panel, control click on the type layer and select Blending Options.
3) In the dialog box that opens, check the Gradient Overlay box and click on the "gradient overlay" text to move to the gradient options. Adjust the angle of the gradient, then click on the colored bar to select the colors you want. Click OK on each dialog to close them.
Final result:
I hope this helps, and please let me know if you need any more assistance.

... AFAIC Location Services is a joke.
With both devices sitting side by side on my kitchen table, Location Services has NEVER shown the devices to be any where close to each other, and at times Location Services has been as much as a 1/4 of a mile off between the two devices.
Your iPod Touch has no GPS receiver so determining its location relies upon wireless routers whose location is known. Its "location" is actually that of a wireless router. Your iPhone 4 can use GPS, cellular triangulation, and Wi-Fi. One would think GPS would be most accurate but urban areas have a greater density of cells and GPS signals are easily obstructed so cellular triangulation is often more accurate.
Therefore the two devices' locations can be expected to be different. Differences of a quarter mile are easily explained if you understand how location services works: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1975
Skyhook Wireless (I think Apple uses its own database now): http://www.skyhookwireless.com/howitworks/
Location Services is not a "joke"; its intended use is for basic navigation and for such applications as determining where the nearest restaurant is. It cannot tell you that your iPod is under the couch cushions and that your iPhone is in the car.

How do you guys do remote access?

Hi All,
I have a customer with a MAC at both office and home. When she is a home she would like to remote into her work computer (okay'ed by her boss) to work on various things (she is a graphics artist).
How do you guys do remote access? Do you have anything like Linux's XRDP?
What ports and what protocol (TCP, UDP) do you use?
Many thanks,
-T

So something like Goodreader or Dropbox would work...if the files are *.doc's you could use Quick Office Pro HD to edit them. An iPad probably isn't the place to do complicated edits, however...either of these apps will allow a file local to the iOS device to be stored, then sent to another app such as Quick Office Pro HD...or you could also have the files stored in an email folder in say, Outlook, and then have that folder sync to the iOS device OTA with the iOS Exchange client...

The wifi at my school isn't very good. And I can't send iMessages through it. It works for some apps like score center and my radar app, but doesn't work for other apps like clash of clans and iMessage. How can I get it to work on that wifi network

In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

How do you "pause" an open application, like Mac automatically does when the memory is full?

How do you "pause" an open application, like Mac automatically does when the memory is full?
I would like to do so proactively when I am not using a certain program but need to keep it open, and I want to free up computer resources.
In other words, I want to keep a given program open, but stop it from "thinking".

There is an application that I can only open a set number of times before it expires. Every time the program closes, you get one less use out of it. I want to use it as long as possible, so I thought I would just keep it open all the time. However, it consistently turns on the fan on the computer, so I imagine it uses a lot of resources. I got the idea after the Force Quit program "paused" it once after getting overloaded with all the apps I had open. It stopped the fan, and I was able to open it and run it again later with no problems. The tricky thing with trying to intentionally overload the system is that it's a hit or miss on which open program the OS will pause (to my knowledge).

How would you pass more than 255 args?

I have an SFTP program that currently is only passed a single file. I am modifying it so that it will loop though an array of files to simulate an mput command. Originally I was just going to call the program with each file to be transferred as an argument but noticed the 255 argument limit. I am looking at potentially having 1500 - 2000 files to transfer at one time. I am just looking for advice on how this should be designed. One idea that was forwarded to me was to just create a listing of the files on the server and use that list file as my argument. Would this be the best approach for this issue?

I see no reason why you need an argument for every file.I would not necessarily need one for every file. Prior to our needing to use this for multiple files, it was easy enough to pass in one file as an argument. That is my question, how would you try to pass in a long list of files?Let's establish what you are concerned about. The 255 argument limit is on method signatures. From what you're saying here, you're talking about arguments being passed into your application from, say, the shell. Am I right?Correct, please see my clarified post. From what I have tested, the 255 argument limit appears to exist even for arguments passed to main.Ah, but arguments passed to main from the command line are passed into main as a single array of Strings, no matter how many of them there are. I have no idea what the limit on those is, but an array can hold millions of elements. I expect your shell will moan about that many, though.
As I see it, you have a few choices. Unless these files are all in different, arbitrary directories, you can specify a list of directories for your app to search. Or you can pass them all in one at a time, and see how you go. Or you can list them in a text file, pass that to your app and have it work them out. Or write a script that invokes your app multiple times. What you don't need, is a method that takes each file as an argument.Thank you for walking me through this. Would you mind telling me which way you would lean if you were designing this? The files will all be in a single directory on the server and I would not like to invoke the app multiple times as it creates a connection during each invocation. They're all in the single directory. Ok, are all the files in that directory to be transferred? If so, I'd just pass the directory name to the app, and have it iterate over all the files. If it's only to be certain ones, how do you know which ones? Is there some regex or filtering you can do on the command line?
If you are interested, the 255 argument limit for main that I tested was from this article:
[http://www.javaspecialists.eu/archive/Issue059.html|http://www.javaspecialists.eu/archive/Issue059.html]
It does die at 255 using Java 1.5.Like I said, arguments to a method are thus limited. But the args passed to an app are passed to main as one argument - an array. In short, that article is not relevant to your problem.

How would you guys block portable Apps like Skype,firefox,Kproxy and gtalk etc etc ?
