Can't delete a folder in Windows XP, Access denied - [Solved]

Did you install your programs in another partition rather than the default “C:\Program Files” or changed the location of your “My Documents” and then reinstalled the Windows by formatting the primary partition? If yes, your will probably get this message while trying to delete some folders in the partition used by the previous OS.

I got the same problem and searched the net for a solution. There are tons of software to unlock such files and folders but the easiest way to solve it is to follow the Microsoft’s advice. Read  the “Cause” part first.

Best Movie/Series/Cartoons download site ever (so far)

I have been away from the blogging world since my classes started. But finally its midterm break and i got sometime in my hand for blogging. Today one of my friends, Atunu told me about a great movie/series download site for slow internet users.

Releases are ripped to half of the size of the actual one and quality is almost same (you know it will never be same). They give a lot of download links of different file sharing sites. And i was really glad to find the rips of  TV series like “DEXTER” in 200mb size because i don’t like the 550mb releases for just a little extra quality. I can live with a mediocre quality if it reduces download time almost to half  :)

I have tried earlier to make 60mb releases for cartoons like familu guy, simpsons  and southpark. These guys are doing the same :)  hope they will keep it up

This is another site. This one releases small sized movie rips only (click here)

Makes you Nostalgic, Doesn’t it?

This one is sure to make you nostalgic. Everyone has had this kind of moments in life but harsh reality is such times as short living and makes us want to go back to them constantly when you return to your mundane affairs …at least these guys got it in the frame :)

Asimov has always been my favorite sci-fi writer. If i could i would buy all his books of empire, robot and foundation series but since most of them are not available in my country i satisfied my desire of reading those from the ebooks available over the net. Luckily i found a nice collection in p2p networks back in 2002 . Here is the complete collection.

I wish for a Google Wave account

Signed up pretty late at the google wave sign up page. As they gave out 1,00,000 invites i did hope to get one even after knowing at least 100 times more people already applied by now and there are "Developers" who would get preference :(

Reminds me of gmail's first launch. I got it from a friend. Didn't get an official invite then also. People were used to sale gmail account for 1.5 dollars or so.  I heard wave has only 8 invites, so chances lessens of getting an invite.

So, what can i do? Do google search "Free google wave invites" for couple of hours and look around every site i find and ask people i don't know for a wave account giving my gmail address to the harvester bots? I think i will pass. There is another reason too. From what i gathered to the video it will take much time for them to implement all that is possible by wave. And to use the full capability of wave both should be wave users. Its not like sending emails in gmail.

I am going to hold back for now and wait. I am a simple user it won't cost me million dollars to wait for a few months until they make it free :)
