Getting Java Compilation Error

Getting Java Compilation Error When Compiling JDBC with java 1.5

When we try to compile  some java project with Java 1.5 compiler, we get the error

[javac] Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
[javac] import oracle.sql.ARRAY;
[javac]                              ^
[javac] 1 error

This is because java 1.5 compiler doesn't support oracle.sql.ARRAY, so to remove this compilation error we need to upgrade the java compiler from 1.5 to java 1.6. The Java compiler 1.6 support all this classes as well as the old classes of java 1.5. Java 1.6 can be downloaded from Java Sun website.

Google Chrome Link Broken Error

Oops! This link appears to be broken

Sometimes google Chrome throws the DNS Server error message,saying "DNS Error-cannot find server" when we try to open some sites.But using the different browser we can open the site without showing any errror.Google Chrome browser use its own algorithm to read the web pages.When you visit a webpage (like a search results page), Google Chrome will pre-fetch the IP addresses of all websites that are listed on that page. Since the browser has the IP addresses of all the links in advance, DNS pre-fetching ensures that any links that may you click on that webpage will load faster. However, when pre-fetching fails, something that’s not very uncommon, you may get the “link broken” error.

How To Tackle This Error?

The fix is simple – go to Tools > Options (or Preferences on a Mac) > Under the Hood and uncheck the setting that says “Use DNS pre-fetching to improve page load performance.” This might increase the loading time of certain pages by a few microseconds but you won’t at least see that misleading error message.

Virus vs. Worm - What's the Difference?

Virus vs. Worm – What’s the Difference?


Below you will find information gathered from several resources on the Internet regarding the differences between viruses and worms.
A computer virus is delivered by e-mail messages, according to most definitions.
But a computer worm spreads through the internet.

Viruses are computer programs that are designed to spread themselves from one file to another on a single computer. A virus might rapidly infect every application file on an individual computer, or slowly infect the documents on that computer, but it does not intentionally try to spread itself from that computer to other computers. In most cases, that’s where humans come in. We send email document attachments, trade programs on diskettes, or copy files to file servers. When the next unsuspecting user receives the infected file or disk, they spread the virus to their computer and so on.

Worms, on the other hand, are insidious because they rely less (or not at all) on human behavior in order to spread themselves from one computer to another. The worm is a program that is designed to copy itself from one computer to another over a network (e.g., by use email). The worm spreads itself to many computers over a network, and doesn’t wait for a human being to help. This means that computer worms spread much more rapidly than computer viruses.

“Malware” is the term used to describe any and all malicious software, including viruses, Trojan horse programs, and worms.

Even though "virus" has become a generic term to refer to all types of computer malware, it actually only applies to one specific type of malicious code/file. A computer virus does the same thing a biological virus does, for the most part. It infects a “host” (a file, boot sector, etc.) and then looks for ways to spread. The major things setting it apart from other malware are that it (1) replicates itself and (2) infects other files instead of existing as a standalone file. Viruses can be very harmful (e.g., erasing or damaging files) or they can be relatively benign (e.g., displaying an obscene message to the user on a given date).

Worms do not attach themselves to a host program or file the way a virus does; worms reside in active memory and stand alone with no need for a host. A worm does replicate itself like a virus, but it doesn’t do so by altering files. Instead, it replicates over computer networks.

A Trojan horse program does not replicate itself, and it does not infect other files. A Trojan horse program (or, simply, “trojan” or “Trojan program”) is a malicious program that is contained within, or masquerades as, an innocent and useful program. The most widespread type of Trojan program is the type that installs “backdoor” access to a computer, through which a malicious person is allowed to remotely take control of the infected computer. The next most popular type is designed simply to steal passwords, credit card numbers, online banking data, or other personal information and send that information back to the malicious party. Often, a Trojan program arrives, unknown to the victim, along with a screensaver or game. When the screensaver or game is run, it is designed to then install the Trojan program that is included with it.

How to make a backup copy of a .pst file

How to make a backup copy of a .pst file

Follow these steps to back up the whole .pst file:

   1. Close any messaging programs such as Outlook, Microsoft Exchange, or Microsoft Windows     Messaging.
   2. Click Start, and then click Run. Copy and paste (or type) the following command in the Open box, and  then press ENTER:
      control panel
      Control Panel opens.
      Note If you see the Pick a category screen, click User Accounts, and then go to step 3.
   3. Double-click the Mail icon.
   4. Click Show Profiles.
   5. Click the appropriate profile, and then click Properties.
   6. Click Data Files.
   7. Under Name, click the Personal Folders Service that you want to back up. By default, this service is called Personal Folders. However, it may be named something else.
      Note If you have more than one Personal Folders Service in your profile, you must back up each set of .pst files separately.
      If there are no entries called Personal Folders and you have not yet stored any information such as messages, contacts, or appointments in Outlook, you probably have not yet enabled the Personal Folders Service. Go to the "References" section for information about how to create a .pst file.
      If you have no Personal Folders Services in your profile and you can store information such as messages, contacts, or appointments in Outlook, your information is probably being stored in a mailbox on an Exchange Server. Try using the instructions in the "How to back up .pst file data that is located on a Microsoft Exchange Server" section.
   8. Click Settings, and then note the path and file name that appears.
      Note Because the .pst file contains all data that is stored in the MAPI folders that Outlook uses, the file can be very large. To reduce the size of the .pst file, click Compact Now in the Settings window.
   9. Close all the Properties windows.
  10. Use Windows Explorer or My Computer to copy the file that you noted in step 8. You can copy the file to another location on the hard disk drive or to any kind of removable storage media, such as a floppy disk, a CD-ROM, a portable hard disk drive, a magnetic tape cassette, or any other storage device.

What Is A IMEI Number

What Is A IMEI Number

IMEI=International Mobile Equipment Identification
IMEI is a 15-digit code assigned to a mobile handset. It helps to identify a stolen handset and also helps the security agencies to track the users. No two mobile phones have same IMEI number, since it’s a unique number.

How To Check Your Mobile Phone’s IMEI Validity
1. On your mobile’s home screen, type in the following code ” *#06# ” (Without quotes). Otherwise check the compliance plate under the battery.

2. Type an SMS “IMEI {followed by your} (15 digit IMEI No.) and send it to 53232.
For example, type IMEI 123456789012345 and send it to 53232. and Rs.3/- charge for each SMS.
‘Success’, is displayed, if your IMEI number is Valid.
‘Invalid IMEI’, is displayed for incorrect IMEI.

3. You can also check your IMEI number validity online. For that, you have to go to those sites that provide this facility and put your IMEI number in the given box. Within few minutes after verifying, you will be intimated whether your IMEI number is legitimate or not.

The IMEI Number has the following structure.
NN-XXXXXX-ZZZZZZ-A
The first two digits indicated by NN is the code of the reporting body such as MSAI. The next six digits indicated by XXXXXX is the type identifier defined by MSAI. These numbers are assigned by MSAI but is given to the mobile equipment manufacturers for identifying different handsets uniquely. The last digit denoted by A is a check digit that is a function of the previous 14 digits and is used to check that none of the digits are entered incorrectly.


If you know your IMEI number you can check your device status by visiting TrackIMEI.com and entering the IMEI number. You’ll get the information about the handset you are using and also you’ll know if there is any theft record of the phone.

Protecting Your Internet Explorer
Lately there has been a rash of incidents where either a web site or email spam has contained a hidden javascript that changes your Home Page entry, then disables the users ability to change it back. To prevent this from happening ... be one step ahead of these characters. Set your Home Page then disable the ability to change it via a Registry restriction. It is also recommended you use a Startup Monitor. Be aware that in some cases this method does not work as some of these parasites will re-write the registry entries on each restart. However a "Startup Manager" will prompt you if your setting are being changed.

HKCU_Hide_HomePage.reg (Current User) 
HKCU_Undo_HomePage.reg (Current User)


To download: Right-click the above link(s) and select: "Save Target As".
To use: right-click and select: Merge (to view: open in Notepad)


Note: this restriction can apply in 2 locations, the Registry checks the HKLM location first, then the HKCU location. The HKLM takes precedence and applies to all users. The HKCU applies to just the "Current User". 

If your HomePage gets hijacked, you may need to "undo" both locations.
Note: XP Pro already has the ability to make these changes via the Group Policy Editor. If the HomePage restriction has been applied by an Administrator, "Limited Users" can not make this change. Start | Run (type) gpedit.msc

Resize your IE Cache size (XP)

By default IE reserves 10% of your drive space for the Temporary Internet Files. This was fine several years ago but since then the hard drive capacities have increased dramatically. If you happen to have one of these large disks the 10% is truly unnecessary and wasteful.

• Control Panel | Internet Options | General tab
• Click Settings and move the slider to 50 mb, click Ok
• Click Delete Files and also select: "Delete all offline files", click Ok
• Click Clear History, click Ok, Apply/Ok 

Note: While viewing Newsgroup messages Outlook Express dumps a series of zero-byte files into the browser cache. When Outlook Express is closed it fails to cleanup these files. To delete these zero-byte files you must select the above option  "Delete all offline files".
