Firefox is curently at version 3.0.1. I’ve always used it and I am simply in love with it. I have the same profile wich i am using since version 1, and every time I format my computer or change it, I simply copy back my profile folder and point profiles.ini to it. A few days ago I did a little “house keeping” to my bookmarks and observed that the file bookmarks.html in my profile folder was still the same. First of all I tried to figure it out by myself, but I had no success, so I googled it. I found out that since version 3 firefox doesn’t use anymore bookmarks.html but places.sqlite in the profile folder. Bookmarks.html is still used for import/export purposes.

Remote Desktop is disabled by default in Windows Vista, but it’s easy enough to turn it back on. If you need to access your Vista PC from another box, it’s an essential thing to turn on.
To get to the configuration page, you can either right-click the Computer icon and choose properties, or you can type in system into the start menu search box, and then System.
Now you’ll want to click the Remote Settings link on the left hand side.
Check “Allow Remote Assistance connections to this computer” and “Allow connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop” (this means that you can access your remote computer using Windows XP also).
Note: This will not work for Home editions of Windows Vista. Read the rest of this entry »
