How can I improve font appearance in Google chrome?

Chrome is reading your ClearType setting which on Windows XP is switched off by default.
  1. To fix the issue, first close the Chrome browser.
  2. Now right-click anywhere on the desktop and select 'Properties' from the drop-down menu.
  3. Click on the 'Appearance' tab found along the top on the new window.
  4. And click on the 'Effects' button.
  5. The second option down should read, "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts."
  6. Select the "ClearType" option.
  7. Click Apply & Re-open your Chrome browser.
From now on Chrome will render your fonts nicely anti-aliased for that smooth effect.

Ultimate Inbox: Merging Inbox and Sent Items folders


Reference: 


Do you love the conversation arrangement introduced in Outlook 2003, but feel like there is something missing? Well there is! By default, the conversation arrangement doesn’t include your contribution to the conversation. With just a few steps, you can configure Outlook to save copies of all outgoing messages in your Inbox to create what I like to call the Ultimate Inbox. Take a look at my Inbox and you’ll see the messages I’ve sent are right alongside incoming messages making the conversations complete. (I use categories extensively too. More on that in a future post.)

Where Does NeatWorks Store Your Data?


If you use NeatWorks by the Neat Company, you may be wondering where it actually stores your data.
NeatWorks is a document organization software for Windows and Mac that comes bundled with the NeatDesk and NeatReceipts scanner, but on the Mac is also available for purchase standalone.
Once you have scanned your documents in, it puts them in its own proprietary database, but where that is depends if you are running Mac or Windows.

HP Scan Application has stopped working Windows 7 64-bit

I've been experiencing the exact same problems as y'all so tried a new tactic.

I used their on-line chat. They fixed the problem - with a workaround...
Here ya go:

Find this file on your PC - Hpiscnapp
Make a shortcut on your desktop
When you want to scan, use this rather than the HP Solution centre. THis is the scan application itself without the HPSC front door.
When you hit Finish, it gives you the usual options - TIF, PDF, file location...WIth HPSC, you do all that selection up front.

I'm now happily scanning.
Now if my Canucks wouldn't have bombed in the NHL playoffs my week would be completely happy.

Save Settings to Administrative Tools

How can I modify the looks of specific administrative tools in Windows XP and Windows Server 2003?

Windows XP/2003 has a certain way it displays the information in some of it's administrative tools. For example, some wise-guy from MS thought that it is better to configure the Services administrative tool to display the Extended Taskpad view instead of the usual Standard view. This "new look" not only makes things harder to see, but when you press the Standard tab, after closing the Services applet and re-opening it - everything reverts back to the default and not comfortable Extended view.
