Recover forgotten dial-up or PPPoE passwords in Windows

I used this tool to recover a forgotten password for the HiNet.net DSL service on Windows XP. It is supposed to work on other versions of windows as well. You can find it at http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/dialupass2.html

I have been liking the MacBook. The keyboard is great, and I have never used a better touchpad. Their driver is great. There is an option that allows you to ctrl-click by cliking with two fingers on the pad. It makes using windows possible without a real mouse.

For heath and productivity reasons, I like to work standing up.

I only use IRC for text chat anyway, no DCC or file transfers. What do you need? You need to install the Openfire server and the Kraken plug-in. The Current versions when I did this were Openfire 3.6.4 and Kraken 1.1.3.beta2. Openfire had a binary download for OS X Snow Leopard, but I had to build Kraken from source.

Dual boot with Windows XP using BOOT.INI

I installed FreeBSD 6.1 on an IBM Thinkpad T30 today. I then installed Windows XP afterwards. Of course, Windows overwrote the boot sector so I could not get to FreeBSD. Thanks to a blog entry found at http://techheadaches.blogspot.com/2006/07/bootini-file-in-windows-2000-xp-server.html , I was able to add FreeBSD to the Windows boot menu. All I did was copy boot/boot1 from the FreeBSD CD to c:\freebsd. Then I added the following line at the end of C:\BOOT.INI c:\freebsd="FreeBSD 6.1" That did the trick!
