HOW TO HIDE UR HARD DRIVES WITHOUT ANY REGISTERY EDIT

1.First goto start->run->type “diskpart” and enter(with out quotations)
2.Type “list volume” (with out quotations)

4.Then type “remove letter f” (with out quotations)(It removes the drive f)
5.If u want re-assign the drive
a. First goto start->run->type “diskpart” and enter(with out quotations)
b. Type “list volume” (with out quotations)

EXAMPLE:
DISKPART> list volumeVolume
### Ltr Label Fs Type Size Status Info
---------- --- ----------- ----- ---------- ------- --------- --------
Volume 0 D DVD-ROM 0 BVolume 1 C NTFS Partition 20 GB Healthy System
Volume 2 E New Volume NTFS Partition 49 GB Healthy

Volume 4 G New Volume NTFS Partition 86 GB Healthy
Volume 5 H SUBBU FAT32 Removeable 978 MB
DISKPART> select volume 3
Volume 3 is the selected volume.
DISKPART> remove letter f
DiskPart successfully removed the drive letter or mount point.
DISKPART> select volume 3
Volume 3 is the selected volume.
DISKPART> assign letter f

PLACEBO EFFECT -- read it u'll like it

this is a piece of info which i read in the times of india and really liked it....
it was on the editorial page.....hope u will like it too......just go thru it

The Turing Test, named after the English mathematician Alan Turing, is still thought to be the best test to determine whether a machine is intelligent or not. It goes something like this: a human judge engages in a natural language conversation with two other parties who remain hidden from sight — one, another human, and the other a machine. If the judge cannot reliably tell which is which, then the machine is said to pass the test. Fair enough. After all, that's how we normally judge other people to have the same kind of intellectual capacity as ourselves. But some critics say this test can be rigged. What if the machine had been programmed to give exactly the type of responses that one would expect from a human under the same circumstances? In which case, even if it passed the judge's pronouncement, wouldn't the rest of us know that the intelligence being certified was merely that of the programmer and not the machine? It would not prove to us that there was a consciousness — or at least even a psychological entity — under that silicon circuitry. No, to prove the existence of an awareness inside a machine, we need another type of test altogether. One which would have to demonstrate an internal mind in operation. That would be something like the placebo test. A placebo is an inert treatment, a dummy medicine containing no active ingredient of any real benefit to the body but that nevertheless makes lot of people feel better after receiving it. Scientists believe this happens because when administered by an authority figure like a physician or researcher, a placebo tricks the mind into causing the brain to effect physiological changes in the body. Now a placebo wouldn't work on a horse because the animal doesn't even know it's receiving medication — much less a fake drug. However, if it still works, we would have to conclude the horse has a mind that can be fooled into healing itself. Similarly, the day a phoney antivirus patch can cause a computer's operating system to get rid of an infection by using its own existing hardware capability, we would know there was awareness in there. One which, ironically, didn't know what was actually going on when the inactive remedy was being administered.

u sure DELETED the files????

A common misconception is that the data is actually removed from the hard drive (erased) when you delete a file. Any time that a file is deleted on a hard drive, it is not erased. Instead, the tiny bit of information that points to the location of the file on the hard drive is erased. This pointer, along with other pointers for every folder and file on the hard drive, is saved in a section near the beginning of the hard drive and is used by the operating system to compile the directory tree structure. By erasing the pointer file, the actual file becomes invisible to the operating system. Eventually, the hard drive will write new data over the area where the old file is located.There are several utilities that you can find on the Internet that allow you to recover "deleted" files. What these utilities do is search for data on the hard drive that does not have corresponding pointer information and present you with a list of these files. Your chances of fully recovering a file diminish the longer you wait after you deleted the file since the probability that the file has been overwritten increases. Sometimes you can recover portions of a file that has not been completely overwritten.
"tune up undelete" is one of those utilities.......
