Important Note: This is for experimental purposes only, buying the software is always the best option.

Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) is not a new stuff. Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) validation, the component that determines if the software is legitimate) had been mandatory for Office users who want to access Office Update or download add-ons such as free Office 2007 templates for a while, making available Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) crack, although the requirement had since been stopped, allowing everybody, legit or counterfeit, to download updates and freebies.

Office Genuine Advantage Notifications is another component of Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) that displays and shows persistent and nagging notification messages on the screens of PC which is checked to be running illegal copies of Office. Anyway, Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) Notifications will always come together with the validation component to determine the genuineness of the Office installed. It marks the first time Microsoft attempts to validate Office installation actively, similar to Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) for Windows operating system.

Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) Notifications had first been published as KB949810 update to Office users in Italy, Spain, Turkey and Chile in a small pilot program, which did not bring too much complaints due to small user base, except when WSUS (Windows Server Update Services) accidentally published it as critical updates for roughly 24 hours. Microsoft has slowly expanding Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) availability to more countries.  According to Microsoft last August 26, 2009 Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) is now expanded to 13 more countries which includes United States of America (US), United Kingdom (UK), Peru, Puerto Rico, Brazil, Australia, Greece, Ireland, the Netherlands, Finland, Switzerland, India, and Taiwan, making it a total of 41 countries that subject to Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) validation.

KB949810 Office Genuine Advantage Notifications will be published through Windows Update and Microsoft Update, as “High Priority” update for Windows XP systems and “Important” update for Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems. The download of Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) Notifications is voluntary. Users can opt and choose to NOT install it. But once installed, Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) Notifications cannot be installed, and there is no option to temporarily or permanently stop notification messages from displaying.

KB949810 requires end-users to accept an EULA (End User License Agreement) before installation begins, even if the systems have Automatic Updates set to download and install all updates automatically.  To prevent and stop Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) Validation and Notifications components to be installed, just deny the EULA.

According KB949810, once a computer has been determined to be running a copy of Office that has failed the Office Genuine Advantage validation process, a message will be displayed during Office program start up:

“This copy of Microsoft Office is not genuine.

Please excuse this interruption. This copy of Microsoft Office did not pass validation. Click Learn More for details and for help identifying the best way to get genuine Microsoft Office.

And, a toolbar will be added to non-genuine Office XP and Office 2003 programs or a ribbon element is added to non-genuine Office 2007 programs to display “This copy of Office is not genuine. Click here to learn more”.

Office Genuine Advantage Notifications (KB949810) will be published all systems with Microsoft Office XP, Office 2003, Office 2007 or upcoming Office 2010 suites or applications program.

You can restart your computer or you may not then you can now fully use your Genuine windows media player 11.  Note:  This is only for experimental purposes buying the Microsoft software is always the best option.

Yesterday I bought a new s10 notebook and I always disable the auto-run because most virus today can infiltrate to your system through “autoruns”. When I entered gpedit.msc on the notebook an error prompted that gpedit.msc is not on my system. So I research around the net on how to install it. Its a good thing that I found several resources but sad to say when I navigate to gpedit.msc it was on different language and the policies are incomplete. I can only see the windows media player on system components where the auto-run should be.

I want to share this files and its the one that I have been using and works like charm to my system. It’s on English language and the Group Policies are complete. Below are the steps that you should follow to avoid any errors on your system.

1. download the files here.

2. extract the files on your computer. You should see 2 folders in it. 1 folder is named gpedit files and the other is GroupPolicy.

3. Copy this and paste on Run %SystemRoot%\system32 or you can navigate to c: >> windows >> system 32 with this oath on the address bar C:\WINDOWS\system32.

4. Copy the files inside gpedit files folder and paste in on system32 folder.

5. Copy the GroupPolicy folder and paste it on system32 folder

6. Go to run and type CMD or open the command prompt

7. Enter the following commands on the command prompt one by one:

regsvr32 gpedit.dll
regsvr32 fde.dll
regsvr32 gptext.dll
regsvr32 appmgr.dll
regsvr32 fdeploy.dll

8. Now go to run and type gpedit.msc, you can now set the policy on your windows xp computer.

To prevent this from happening you need to disable autorun on your computer. And how do you do that? Its really simple and anybody who uses windows XP can do this even my 8 year old cousin can do it. Here are the steps you need to do so that you can disable the autorun in your computer.

Open the gpedit.msc application and this can be done by going to the Start >> Run. Then type gpedit.msc and press enter. gpedit.msc is a built in application of windows xp which can be found in your system32 folder. gpedit.msc is a group policy which controls access to your computer’s applications and other stuff. after opening gpedit.msc you should open the under User Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> System the on the right side you can see Turn Off Autoplay. Open it and the enable the policy and set it to all drives. By then autorun will be disabled every time you connect an external device on your computer. Below is the image on how to disable autorun by using the gpedit.msc application.

Disabling autorun on your computer is one big help especially when you use external devices and connect it from one PC to the other. This will prevent computer virus from running on your computer without any of your permission. Aside from disabling your computers autorun, the most important thing to do is always keep your antivirus up to date. This will surely prevent your computer from any attacks.

Look around you, be aware of natures unseen danger and these are GERMS.  Yes, germs can harm us and can cost us a lot of money for hospitalization.  How germs are transmitted from one place to another?  Most germs are spread through the air in sneezes or coughs or through bodily fluids like sweat, saliva, semen, vaginal fluid, or blood, and you yourself can transmit these germs to your family your best bet is to limit contact with those substances, as far as possible.  But hugging, talking, and limiting contact to family members is the hardest thing to do especially when you are sick, you need to communicate with them so they can help you.  I should say that the best bet is use the new ECOBOX, the new ecobox featuring ActivePure helps prevent the spread of germs by killing them on surfaces.  Take control of the situation and don’t let the situation control you.  Ecobox quietly sends a solution to the pollution, university studies say that ecobox can  kill up to 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, and mold on surfaces.

For issues concerning starting up a green home based business and other related topics, play the EcoQuest game and know more about Ecoquest’s background here.  While relaxing and playing the EcoQuest game, Ecobox is there to clean up the air .  As the doctor say “prevention is better than cure”, so get one and be safe…

This is really true, i’ve tried this myself.


#1. An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the computer which can be named as “CON”. This is something pretty cool…and unbelievable. .. At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn’t answer why this happened!

Whatever you do, you can NEVER create a folder name as “Con”, You wanna bet?

Second, do the following

#2 For those of you using Windows, do the following:

a.) Open an empty notepad file

b.) Type “Bush hid the facts” (without the quotes)

c.) Save it as whatever you want.

d.) Close it, and re-open it.

Is it a bug or what?

#3 (last but not the least)

Microsoft crazy facts: This is something pretty cool and neat…and unbelievable. .. At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn’t answer why this happened!

It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself…

Open Microsoft Word and type

=rand (200, 99)

And then press ENTER

This was an amzing discovery and is very cool…

Among the many entries here are a lot of pointless ones, by the way. You can remove the Log Off entry on the Start Menu, for example, which certainly isn’t high on my list of must-haves. But who knows, you may want to do that or any of the many other changes the Group Policy Editor allows. Go in there yourself and muck around; you’ll find plenty to change.

To hide unused applets using the Registry, run the Registry Editor (run > type regedit) and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Control Panel\don't load The key, as its name implies, determines which Control Panel applet icons are not loaded into the Control Panel. You’ll still be able to run those applets from the command line after you hide them  you just won’t be able to see their icons in the Control Panel.

To hide an applet, create a new String value whose name is the filename of the applet that you want to hide. For example, to hide the Mouse Control dialog box, the String value would be main.cpl. Below are the complete list of Control Panel applets and their filenames.
