AVG Error "Invalid Update Control CTF File"

For the last few days, My AVG free antivirus is failing to update with the wierd reason. Today, I thought of finding the solution for it, and dropped the search text as the error message and clicked "I'm Feeling Lucky". the first result that pops out.. is from winhelponline blog http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/error-invalid-update-control-ctf-file-when-updating-avg-anti-virus-80/ The above page states the solution to the issues as delete two *.ctf files in some update directory of AVG installation. Not only that, in that blog, the author Ramesh Srinivasan, has provided a VB script to delete the file by running a vb script. That's a very good one. I downloaded the vbscript and run it(after going thru the vbscript) to delete the two ctf files. Immediately after running the vbscript, I tried the AVG update, it updates flawlessly. Thanks to Ramesh Srinivasan. Thats solves the AVG issue. Disclaimer:- "Always Check and then Use the vbscript downloaded from Internet,

சோதனை பதிப்பு

கடந்த இரண்டு நாட்களாக, நான் எழுதிய பதிப்பு, பதிவு செய்யும் தறுவாயில், மென்பொருள் மற்றும் இணைய முகவரி அமைப்பு மாற்றம் காரணமாக, பதிப்பு காணாமல் போனது. இந்த பிரச்சனை இன்று தன்னிச்சையாக சரியாக இருக்கும் என்கின்ற எனது நம்பிக்கையை சொதிப்பதற்க்காக இந்த சோதனை பதிப்பு. மீண்டும் சந்திக்கும் வரை, தடங்கலுக்கு வருத்தம் தெரிவித்து, உங்களிடம் இருந்து விடைபெறுகிறென். நன்றி. வணக்கம்.

BSNL Unlimited @ 625/month

Its been more than three months since my last blog, the reason as i said earlier blog,i.e., I could didn't find much time spend in internet, and struggling/slogging lots of time to complete the work. Though still the work is not completed, However trying to get the blogging mode. Still not clear of what to write in this blog. May be I could add the some new(though old, but new for me) BSNL's Unlimited internet Plan for almost 625/month (this is not exactly correct, as to avail this price, one has to pay 7500/year in one shot to BSNL) but i.e, quiet a good price. Hoping that it will decrease more. Moreover, now, applying/registering for Broadband can be done by online / no need to visit any office and hence 24/7 service. the url is here .. <http://www.bsnl.co.in/service/dataoneform.php> Before sign off, I have to apologies my blog visitors, as all their comments were moderated. I would try to make it available by the next week. See you tommorrow with wordpress/theme update

Arai Enn 305il Kadavul

Its a fantastic fantacy movie from imsai arasan fame Chimbudevan. His way of story telling is thrilling at the same time its full humour. To say a particular scene that explains the above line, God (prakash raj ) cautions dubaakkurs that 2100 people to going to die in the next 4 seconds and later, its fun to know that it was 2100 mosquitoes that died. The chimbudevan's style of mocking against the big corporates is quite innovative. In this movie the target was moved from coca cola, pepsi to Infosys (as kollaiasys :). Its not only innovative, but also courageous attempt in making fun out of the real life situation prevalent in the society. Hats off to Chimbudevan. There is lot to blog about the movie, and i became a greatest fan of Chimbudevan. Waiting for his Next movie. There is another thing to cherish in this blog as this is my first moblog or mobile blog. that makes this blog goes a level up.

Tray It

Tray it - Its a one of the tool, i was searching for a long time, finally got it over the last week. Its a free windows tool using which we can mimimize any windows application to system tray. Normally when I click the minimize button of an application, say for example Eclipse or Toad, it gets minimized to task bar. As I wont be actively using the application, over the time, my taskbar would be loaded with more than ten application. To overcome this issue, If I close the app, instead of minimizing, the next time when I open the app, It will be waste of time (Java based GUIs). So I want the application minimized to system tray instead of task bar, there by minimizing the clutter in task bar. Exactly this is what is done by this application. So Now on, Just press the Shift key when clicking the minimize button, the app will be minimized to system tray.(you have to download and run it) Note:- Also, using this you can play hide and seek on the app when somebody(boss) around your comput
