The Back button is a large round one - green in XP and blue in vista. The forward button matches extremely well with the back button. </p> <p>As a matter of fact. this buttons along with the awesome bar became the main distinguishing factor of Firefox 3. </p><span id="fullpost"> <p>But Firefox 3 for Linux was a bit out of fashion. This happened since it used the default native GTK widgets. It looked exactly similar to other GTK applications running on board and that isn’t something that everyone will call a slick UI.</p> <p>People who long wanted to have Windows like Back and Forward buttons in Ubuntu Linux can now rejoice, because the <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/8105">Strata Human</a> Firefox theme does just that. This is what the developers of the theme have to say about it:</p> <blockquote> <p>This theme gives the clean, glossy look of the XP and Vista "Strata" icons to Ubuntu's Human theme. I took the XP version of Strata and changed the colors in Gimp to better fit the Human theme. I think it fits pretty well.</p> </blockquote> <p>Bonus tip: This theme works equally well in Windows. Ubuntu fans stuck in Windows during work are gonna love this theme.</p> <p><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/8105">Strata Human</a></p></span> </p>

Defrag Your Windows Registry with Quicksys RegDefrag

<p><p align="center"><img src="http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk99/anoopengineer/Quicksys-RegDefrag-windows-registry.jpg" /> </p> <p>Windows Registry tend to accumulate junk over time. </p> <p>Almost every program in Windows write stuff into registry, but only very few are written by good programmers who think about deleting their entries when application exits  or gets uninstalled.</p><span id="fullpost"> <p>As the number of installed programs increase and simply as time progress, the number of zombie keys or left over entries that are not owned by any application, increase in the Windows Registry. Greater the garbage in windows registry, slower will be the process of accessing the registry and hence slower will be the performance of the PC. </p> <p>So, you get the point that removing unwanted registry entries will increase PC performance. And there are already many tools like <a href="http://www.ccleaner.com/">CCleaner</a>, which does exactly the same. But the tool that we introduce to you today, called the <a href="http://www.regdefrag.com/">Quicksys RegDefrag</a> goes over the top by claiming that it provides even better performance improvement by defragging the windows registry.</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p>This is what it does according to the developers:</p> <blockquote> <p>It's a freeware utility to defrag registry. Quicksys RegDefrag is small, clear and easy. Registry data is constantly being written to and removed during a normal Windows operation. Over time this data becomes fragmented.Quicksys RegDefrag optimizes your registry by removing gaps, fragments and wasted space in Windows registry files. The program does not modify any registry entries.The defragmentation improves performance and boosts access to the registry.</p> </blockquote> <p>Though we are not so convinced of such a smooth-n-silky claim, the application is surely worth a try because it’s a freeware, has a slick user interface, runs on Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008, has been translated to a number of languages, has a portable version and is actively being developed.</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p><a href="http://www.regdefrag.com/">Quicksys RegDefrag</a> | <a href="http://www.regdefrag.com/download">Download</a></p></span> </p>
