Adobe Photoshop or simply Photoshop is a graphics editing program developed and published by Adobe Systems. It is the current and primary market leader for commercial bitmap and image manipulation, and is the flagship product of Adobe Systems. All of you must be familiar with this application. Yes, Photoshop must be one of the best image editing tools.

But its not a free application, you have to pay a lot of money to have it. Is there any free image editing tools beside Photoshop?

Good news for you who got infected by new GPcode virus, Kaspersky Lab now able to provide infected users with instruction on how to recover files attacked by the GPcode.ak virus. It give a new hope although they are not able yet to cure your system 100%.

Had a shutdown problems? Perhaps you can try this. It works for me. One of my friends can't turn off her computer although she had click Shutdown button. I find it here.

Start Regedit and navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Set the value of PowerDownAfterShutdown to 1.

I found it today in one of my sites. It occur when I try to open menu in Site Building and Site Configuration menus. Seems there are connection problem between my site (using drupal) and MySQL server. Someone in drupal forum guessing this maybe because two problems, which result in the same error:

This morning, I got this message in one of my sites 'erakomputer':

Table './erakomp_drpl1/cache_menu' is marked as crashed and should be repaired query: SELECT data, created, headers, expire, serialized FROM cache_menu

I don't know what's wrong with my site, there's nothing wrong when I open it last night but suddenly this morning that message has flooding my site pages. Thanks God Drupal Forum give a solution for this. They said it was problem with one of tables in MySQL database. They guess if the hosting machine crashes (i.e. does not get shutdown cleanly), this can happen. They suggesting I need to run the REPAIR command from mysql or phpMyAdmin.

How to repair it :

The table need to repair is cache_menu table.
