Warning: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/New_York' for 'EDT/-4.0/DST' instead in /home/tiplabs/public_html/includes/counter.php on line 58
Need a DOS boot disk, well select which one you want:
You can now get your DOS 5.0 - DOS 6.22, Windows 95-ME pre built boot
disks from a website. This is a very handy must have tool to have:
http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm
===============================================
Go way back with old snap shots of websites on the internet:
Ever want to see your site 5 years ago with its old design? Look at
almost any website at various dates back in history with the way back
machine. This can be used to also look at competition to see what they did
previously on their websites.

===============================================
Need to bypass your work firewall? Now you can:
This site offers up-to-date info on how to bypass your corporate firewall.
Use tools like SOCKS proxies or HTTP proxies to tunnel you right passed
that company firewall.

===============================================
Get a disposable email account to do your dirty work:
Its time to stop using real legit emails to signup for stuff that bugmenot
does not support. Bust out pookmail for email accounts that you just need
temporarily:
http://pookmail.com
===============================================
Tired of getting newsgroup incomplete files, PAR2 it:
A lot of newsgroup posters now will include PAR2 in their uploads. So if
you find some of the files missing or even some of the PAR2 files
missing you can still most of the time recover the application. PAR2 is
a data verification and repair utility, it can recover completely
missing files and re-generate them. This tool is key to getting files
that are usually missing from newsgroup posting.

===============================================
Roll your own spam filter with DNS blacklists:
Most mail applications will have the ability to incorporate DNS black
lists into your client. Just adding these can cut down on over 80% of all
your spam, leaving a small portion to actually run through some bayesian
filter application. Simply get your hands on some good lists and add them
in. Keep in mind these lists can often blacklist a lot of people that
should not be blacklisted. So you will need to use the trial and error
method as you add them into your final list. Here are some lists to get
your hands dirty:
DNS Black Lists

http://moensted.dk/spam
A current group that we use that has worked out well thus far are:
relays.ordb.org
relays.osirusoft.com
cn-kr.blackholes.us
inflow.blackholes.us
bl.spamcop.net
dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net
sbl.spamhaus.org

===============================================
Use PGPdisk but do not want to pay $59 anymore?
First PGPdisk is an excellent application and encrypts directories on
your hard drive so that if your computer/laptop gets stolen nobody will
be able to get the data off that portion of the hard drive.
But you are tied of paying for it now? Well first you can get older
versions of PGPdisk, such as 6.02i which are still freeware.
Basically starting with version 6.5 and higher you have to pay for it.
Grab the older copies here:
http://www.pgpi.org/products/pgpdisk
A new open source version is now out as well which some seem to like
better than PGPdisk. Best of all its also free:
http://www.truecrypt.org
If you can not do without the retail copy, here you go:
http://www.pgp.com
