4. You can also adjust the size of address bar by dragging the vertical lines visible on the taskbar to adjust the size to your requirement and if the vertical lines are not visible on the task bar, then your taskbar is locked. You can unlock it by right-clicking on the taskbar again and uncheck “Lock the Taskbar”.

Bhramara is an Indian search engine. http://bhramara.in Search interfaces are available in English, Hindi, and Kannada based on Unicode fonts. Bhramara is born out of an urge to capture the essence of India on the Internet via a ‘Seek’ Engine. The name ‘Bhramara’ which means bee — the pollinating honey-gathering variety — in Sanskrit.
Bhramara indexes pages on and about India. The goal is not to index a huge number of pages but just the right number and right variety of pages that gives one a flavour of India.

A nice little tweak for Windows XP or Windows Vista. Microsoft OS reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes (may be for updates and interrogating your machine etc..)
Here’s how to get it back:
Click Start–>Run–>type “gpedit.msc”
This opens the group policy editor.
Then go to: Local Computer Policy–>Computer Configuration–>Administrative Templates–>Network–>QOS Packet Scheduler–>Limit Reservable Bandwidth
Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured, but go to ‘Explain’tab and you will know the truth:”By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default.”
So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to Zreo.
This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%.
I have tested on Windows XP,Windows XP Pro and Windows Vista Beta 2 and rc2(currently using) also.
Please give me feedback about your results also.

When people search Google, they are asking the company to find every instance of the term in its index and rank the corresponding documents by their relevance.
1 The user types a search query, the typical query is two or three words, which can make finding the most relevant result challenging, roughly one in 10 queries is misspelled.
2 Before Google provides and information, it identifies the searcher’s location through his or her internet protocol address. The IP helps speed up the search by sending the request to the nearest data center and allows Google to identify geographically appropriate ads to show with search result.
3 The query is sent to the central network the central network and then redirected to the nearest data center.
4 At the data center, the search term is run through the index, matching terms are sent back to the central network, then to the user with a summary of the web page, called a “snippet”.
Google determines which web sites are most relevant to a search term by using its “secret sauce”, a formula that weighs more than 200 measurements, such as the number of times the search term appears on a web page, the number of visitors to the page and the Page Rank- the number of sites linking to the page and the popularity of those sites.
You can also check how your web site by the different Google datacenters by Google cache tool and other tests like Web Site Popularity Checker, Search Engine Position Checker, Keyword Suggestion Tool, Web Site Analysis etc. at http://www.sitesolutions.com/tools.asp
