A user pointed me out that he could not start fba emulator to play a game and encountered an error of 'D3dx9_42.dll Not Found'.
fba.exe does not work, gives error 'Unable to Locate Component. This application has failed to start because d3dx9_42.dll was not found.'
Now it looks like that d3dx9_42.dll is missing, but its not. With a fresh installed OS you are most likely to encounter this error / warning. This problem has got an easy solution.
Ever encountered a problem in which you can't open Group Policy Editor even using administrator account. When you try the command gpedit.msc or other commands with msc extensions like services.msc, devmgmt.msc, compmgmt.msc etc. simply an error message shows up which says:
Access is denied.
Try opening the editor by double clicking the gpedit.msc inside the system32 folder but you will encounter the same error message.
Someone asked about the following problem:
I read your article at: Disguise Any Folder to Recycle Bin. I have sort of a reverse problem. While right clicking on a folder to change the icon from default manila folder type, to a tree icon, I accidentally clicked on the recycle bin icon next to the tree icon, and it changed my 20 gig folder to a recycle bin and is hiding the files, while at the same time, it acts as a bin for recycled files. My files are there, because when I do right click/properties now, it starts spooling hundreds of megabytes, but the files can't be seen or accessed. I can't change the icon back, because right clicking and selecting properties on the recycle bin it created, does not give an option to change the icon, like a normal folder does. Any way to fix this?
Well the solution is really simple. You have to do two things.
This is a problem where you can not right click at in Windows, at desktop or in Windows explorer. If you are having trouble with the context menu (right click menu) or right clicking on the desktop does not do anything then most probably you have your group policy is set to not displaying the context menu (right click menu) in the windows explorer. You can modify and set it in two ways. One using the group policy editor and the other using the registry editor. Here is how it is.
McAfee detection center calls it pws-yahmali trojen and Symantec calls it infostealer.yahmali. It's risk level is very low. And it's only a password stealer. It attempts to steal the password of the yahoo messenger (whenever user logs in) and may send to ilam-mind-makers [dot] com.
Ever encountered this problem while searching through Google that search result pages redirect to some sort of other advertisement pages? If somebody wants to search something in Google, an advertisement would open up instead of the search results. This is a virus that would redirect all the Google queries to advertisements. sometimes it would open a page loaded with AdSense ads otherwise it would open a fake advertisement page.
Its common to encounter error messages while using Microsoft products for any IT professional.

Lets dig it. More precisely, lets put it this way:
When you start your Windows XP-based computer, you may receive the following error message:
Explorer has encountered an error and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Also, you may not be able to open folders, such as the My Documents folder or the My Computer folder.
I have been using Cute ftp for a while and recently I got stuck with the following error:
Can't Read From Data Socket - Socket Error = #10055
When I was trying to open a particular directory it was giving this error and directory was not opening.
Cause: An operation on a socket could not be performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer space or because a queue was full. This error indicates a shortage of system resources. Contributing factors may include the number of programs running simultaneously, the amount of physical memory available, the size of the paging file and the amount of disk space available. Lets fix this error.
I have mentioned previously that how to break windows password. Here is a video demonstration for retrieving lost windows password in many ways. You can try login in with a different administrator account of 'Owner' or 'Administrator'. The video also points towards some third party tools to do the task. e.g. Ophcrack, EBCD, Offline NT password and registry editor and more. You will learn how to crack or hack back windows password and Bios level password also (by reseting or bypassing it). The methods are for multiple versions of windows.
