How to Configure the Winchat:-
1. Open "Run".
2. Enter "Services.msc" in it.
3. Check for "Network DDE" service status. It should be "Started".
4. The machine to which you want to communicate,should also have "Netword DDE" service running.
5. Once Confirmed that "Network DDE" service is running on machines.
6. Open WINCHAT by entering "winchat" in Run menu.
7. Click on "Conversation > Dial".
8. "Select Computer" window will open,displaying all the computers available in Network. Or enter the computer name you want to communicate to.

It's called Mindset!!
It's called Mindset!!
As my friend was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at anytime, break away from the ropes they were tied to but for some reason, they did not. My friend saw a trainer nearby and asked why these beautiful, magnificent animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away.
"Well," he said, "when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free." My friend was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn't, they were stuck right where they were.
Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before? So make an attempt to grow further.... Why shouldn't we try it again?

Default Port for MySQL Server is 3306.
We can change this Default port to any Port we want.
Please follow the following steps for the Same.
1. Find the "my.ini" file at following location,
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\my.ini
2. Search for "port=3306" in my.ini file.
3. There are two instances of "port=3306".
4. change the value to say "port=3309" in both the occurances of Port.
5. Save the "my.ini" file.
6. Open "Run" and Enter "Services.msc" in it.Hit Enter.
7. Restart "MYSQL" services from Services screen.
8. Now check the changed port by logging in to MYSQL Server where you need to enter "port" as "3309".
Note:- Restarting of MySQL service is mandatory.

Tester Vs Developer
How Roshan D'Mello (QA Tester) frustrates developer (Mukesh Thakur)
Roshan D'Mello: Hey Mukesh, there is a bug in your code. Type a text in user name text box and press enter. Beep sound doesn't appear.
Mukesh Thakur: How can that be a bug? There is no requirement that beep sound should come. Anyway, I will assign it to offshore and get it fixed.
After 2 days,
Mukesh Thakur: Roshan, bug is fixed. Please verify.
After another 2 days,
Roshan D'Mello: I have re-opened the bug because sound is not coming in some PCs. Sound is coming in my machine, but my colleague Rajat Choudhry is not getting the sound.
After another 2 days,
Mukesh Thakur: Not a bug. I observed that your friend Rajat Choudhry has old IBM machine. Unlike your DELL machine, IBM machines do not have inbuilt speakers. So, to hear the sound in Rajat Choudhry's machine, please use head phones and then get the bug closed soon.
Another 2 days,
Roshan D'Mello: I have re-opened the bug because sound tone is different across different machines. Sound is coming as 'BEEP' in my machine, but my colleague Rajat Choudhry who is having IBM machine is getting the sound as 'TONG'.
Mukesh Thakur: Not a bug. Get lost man. What can we do for the bug? The two machines are built in such a way that they produce different sounds. Do you expect the developers to rebuild the IBM processors to make them uniform? Please close it.
Another 2 days,
Roshan D'Mello: I have re-opened the bug because intensity of beep sound produced on 2 different DELL machines is different. My machine produces beep sound of intensity 10 decibels whereas my friend's machine produces sound worth 20 decibels. Fix your code to make the sound uniform across all machines.
Another 2 days later,
Mukesh Thakur: Once again it is not a bug. I have noticed that the volume set is different on the two machines. Ensure that volume is same in both the machines before I get mad and then close the bug.
Another 2 days,
Roshan D'Mello: I have re-opened the bug.
Mukesh Thakur: What ?? Why? What more stupid reasons can be there for re-opening?
Roshan D'Mello: Sound intensity is different for machines placed at different locations (different buildings). So, I have re-opened it.
After 2 days,
Mukesh Thakur: I have made some scientists do an acoustical analysis of the two buildings you used for testing. They have observed that the acoustics in the two buildings varies to a large extent. That is why sound intensity is different across the 2 buildings. So, I beg you to please close the bugs.
After 1 year
Roshan D'Mello: I am re-opeing the bug. During the year, I requested the clients to arrange architects to build two buildings with same acoustical features, so that I can test it again. Now, when I tested, I found that intensity of sound still varying. So, I am re-opening the defect.
Mukesh Thakur: GROWLLLL.....I am really mad now. I am sure that the sound waves of the two buildings are getting distorted due to some background noice or something. Now I need to waste time to prove that it is because of background noice.
Roshan D'Mello: No need for that. We will put the machines and run them in vacuum and see. Mukesh Thakur: (not alive)

But actually i faced lot of Problems since it was fake 32 GB Pen,
1. Data Getting corrupt stored in Pendrive since this is Fake pendrive.
2. Size of Pen Drive shown as 32 GB but actually data not getting copied correctly.
3. Folders containg Folders and files not getting saved corretly on the Pen Stick.
Solution:-
Actually the issue is with Size of Pen Drive.
Even if it is shown as 32 GB on System,actually data saved more than 1 GB or 2 GB was getting corrupt.
There is one solution to this issue.
1. Download mkdosfs utility from "http://www1.mager.org/mkdosfs/".
2. Type the following command on cmd,
mkdosfs -v -f 32 -n CLEAN1GB H: 2060000
3. Check the Pen Drive Size now. It should be 1 GB. (0.97 GB)
4. Copy the files ,folders,media files etc. in Pen Drive.
5. Check the feasibility of Pen Drive for Use.
After following mentioned step i recovery a 32 GB PenDrive has only 1 GB Size and it can be used without any issues.
You can use some tools available at http://www1.mager.org/mkdosfs/
(Really thankful to creator of above mentioned Web Page which contains the remedy for Fake Pen sticks).
