Create an Invisible Folders

Introduction: This is not a secure hack. It is designed to hide your files from some one who is browsing through files, not your system admin, not your computer hacker friends. Think of it like hiding your money under the mattress, if some one really wants to find it they will, but if they are not looking for it they wont find it. It’s a fun trick and it works best on your desktop (just remember where you placed it)
how can you make a folder truly invisible? Follow these simple steps ..

Right click where ever you want the invisible folder to be and select create a new folder.

Right Click on the folder and hit rename. Erase the name of the folder so there is nothing there.
If you try to stop here windows will tell you that you need to provide a name. So to get around this… with the name field still active hold down ALT and press 0160 on the number pad (make sure Num Lock is on), release alt

You should now have a blank name with nothing but a folder next to it

Now click on the nameless folder and right click. Select Properties.

Go to the Customize tab.

Find and press the Change Icon button. Scroll through the icons until you find one that has no image.

Hit OK and you have an invisible folder!

With the invisible folder you can hide what ever undesirables you have. Be it video games at work, pictures of your family or anything else you can think of “wink”.
The folder will show up for a brief second if you put it on your desktop. For that reason it might be smart to place it inside a folder or amongst a group of folders.
Happy Hiding!

Waterproof Night Vision Scope

If you have ever played any of the brilliant Splinter Cell series of games, chances are that a night vision device has found it's way on to your Christmas list. Afterall, how else are you meant to take out those enemy guards whilst creeping around a darkened warehouse? What set's the Bushnell Seagull night vision scope apart from similar devices is that fact that it is also water proof and floats making it the perfect choice for those water-based missions (as well as more mundane activities like sailing and fishing). As well as amplifiying even minimal amounts of light, such as moonlight, the Seagull night vision scope includes an integral infra red lamp. This means that, unlike inferior scopes, it can operate in total darkness as well. Related Links Spy Gadgets

SanDisk Sansa Fuze Review

The Sansa Fuze from SanDisk, is a cool little MP3/4 player along the same vein as the iPod Nano. We’ve recently been sent one to play with so here are our thoughts and findings (or a review so to speak). Aesthetically the Fuze is a cute little player.The physical UI consists of a rotating front dial which also acts as the 4 navigation buttons with the center button for selection. The display crisp with a resolution of 220 x 176, large enough for watching the odd music video but you wouldn’t want to watch a feature length film on it. Sound quality was good (though as with just about any MP3 player the supplied headphones aren’t the greatest). What most impressed me about the Fuze are the extra features that you don’t find on other (note iPod) players, including: Built in microphone FM radio microSD Slot, a really cheap way to expand the capacity Easy to transfer files (drag and drop) without the need of propriety software Though there are a few downsides: Propriety USB connectio...
