"0" Blank File, and Clock AVI File For Windows XP, If you look in your "My Computer\C:\WINDOWS\" In this folder, after all other folders, you find a text file named "0". If you open it, nothing will be in there, hence the filename "0". Another thing would be a file called "Clock". It's an AVI file. It can open it in Windows Media Player. It's a very simple and plain animation. These 2 files, were probably left in by the Microsoft Programmers as Easter-Eggs for anyone that could find them. Con Folder 1.

1. If you’re annoyed by Internet Explorer’s incessant barking that you’ve lowered your security settings (like, if you’re a non-paranoid expert), launch “gpedit.msc” from either the Run command or Start Search field, navigate through Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates / Windows Components / Internet Explorer. In the rightmost pane, double-click “Turn off the Security Settings Check feature” and set it to Enabled. 2. If Internet Explorer’s Information Bar also annoys you, you can turn it off (again) in the Group Policy Object Editor (gpedit.msc) through Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates / Windows Components / Internet Explorer / Security Features. In the rightmost pane, double-click “Internet Explorer Processes” and set it to Disabled. Hallelujah! 3. I’ve just mentioned two tweaks that are buried inside the Group Policy Editor.

As you might already know, Bioshock requires a shader model 3.0 gfx card. While you can still run this game on a shader 2.0 card (such as ATI Radeon 9800), it will leave you with no mouse cursor and a lot of missing textures in the game. Now there were a lot of people with these cards waiting to play this incredible game and since you are reading this article I guess you are one of them too :) So, what do we do ? Well, it appears that Bioshock shaders can easily be replaced and there are good replacements available already. We're not gonna go into details here, if you want more you can go here for more details on this. There you can find the newest updates regarding this. You can also download the shader 2.0 fix v4 (latest as of this writing) here, link at the bottom. Here are some video cards with pixel/vertex shader 2.0: ATI Radeon 9500, 9550, 9600, 9700, 9800, X300, X550, X600, X700, X800, X850 Nvidia GeForce FX 5200, 5500, 5600, 5700, 5800, 5900, 5950 and here ar

Firstly, if you are using rapidshare, you should get a premium account, period. It is really cheap and it will save you a lot of hassle, besides there really is no convenient way to download multiple files on rapidshare without it. Got one? Ok, let's proceed... Now, these are the instructions for rapidshare.com users, but I guess it should be similar for rapidshare.de too, although I haven't tested it. First, you need to set up rapidshare for direct downloads: 1. Go to rapidshare.com, navigate to Premium zone -> Premium-zone Login and click on Options 2. Check direct-downloads and click Save Now you need to install a download manager that can work with rapidshare, such as Orbit or FlashGet. We will describe the procedure for FlashGet here. Using Flashget you can download multiple files simultaneously and pause/resume rapidshare downloads, you can also schedule downloads, control download speed and a bunch of other stuff. If you don't have FlashGet, you can
